What widget to use for X10 MS13 sensor and how to configure it

[petediscrete]

I'm trying to choose a suitable widget to use for the X10 MS13A and and figure out how to use it. I currently have it's House Code set to A1 so when it is tripped HG reports it's House Code A1 but it also reports it's raw RF data. As x10 works on both RF and PLC commands with the CM15PEO I'm not exactly sure how I should configure a widget for it.

You can just add module A1 to your group and set it to the sensor type.  It won't show the RF commands, but it works for the A1 ON/OFF commands and updates the status.

Yes that makes sense ok.Thanks.

I seem to have deleted the sensor and the light widget while trying to configure them.Is there any way of getting them back.The "import widget" option obviously needs a source to import from and I'm lost trying to add one.

I've never messed with widgets to know.  I know one option would be to save a backup of your settings and reinstall HG.  Perhaps there's an easier way that I'm not aware of, but that would do it if you can't wait for someone with a better suggestion.

I considered that but I'm not sure if the backup/restore is quite stable and I've installed additional software to handle the RPI Camera module and Mono to handle email notification which I doubt would backup and restore successfully. If there is an Import Widget and Add Widget Option under Widget Configuration surely there must be source files to achieve this. Maybe someone could export the widgets in question, save the file and post them on the forum.
