I want to say thank you for HomeGenie software. I've been using it for past 6 month and it worked great for me. The program controls number of Z-Wave and my old X10 devices. I was able to find solutions to all issues I encountered until now.
 
I have tried few times to move to version 1.1 but couldn't get X10 working. I just tried the latest version 504 with the same results. Entering custom port COM8 (where CM11 is connected) doesn't work either. I don't get any errors, just no X10 devices respond to HomeGenie commands. X10 starts to work just fine as soon as I downgrade to 1.0 v493. I rebooted my PC number of times, reinstalled fresh version of HomeGenie and didn't even restore my config (left as vanilla install with one test X10 device). Not sure what else I can try. v493 is working great for me but eventually it may not support new devices since v1.0 isn't updated anymore. Any ideas?

HomeGenie is installed on the latest version of Windows 7 x64.

That's all I get when issue X10 commands:
200 /api/HomeAutomation.X10/E14/Control.Off/null/ [OPEN]

Hi Zen,

the log is not showing any connect/disconnect message. Cannot access my old CM11 right now, so added more logging to the XTenLib.dll and uploaded it to sourceforge, so we can trace better what's going on.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/homegenie/files/testing/

- stop homegenie
- overwrite the XTenLib.dll file in the homegenie/lib/mig folder
- start homegenie
- get the new log infos

Cheers,
g.

It looks like the reader task was not starting for CM11.
Please test the new uploaded XTenLib.dll, let me know if it fixes the issue.

Thanks!
