Active Home Vista is the ´control centre´ of your home automation system. You can control all your devices, program the X10 interface and receive updates from the X10 interface to see what´s going on X10-wise.

Dusk & dawn timers are supported. The limited Eeprom of the interface is used in an efficient way to store as many timers & macros as possible. Also DST support is present. For a number of X10 devices a program wizard is available.

You´ll need a computer, a free serial port and a X10 interface to do anything useful.

The following interfaces are supported:

• CM10A / IBM Home director 16 (beta, note that downloading macros to the CM10A is not supported)
• CM11A
• CM17A (beta)
• CP10 (beta)

R1.3.2 fixes a crash while shutting down the application when toolbar settings cannot be saved for whatever reason. Also crashes when running in a timezone without DST are solved.

R1.3.1 fixes some issues; see release notes for more details.

R1.3.0 adds beta support for the CM10A, CM17A and CP10 X10 interfaces. Also the possibility is added to let the PC trigger timers instead of the interface. Some smaller bugs have been fixed (eg. timer with dim level now works correctly). For more details see the release notes.

R1.2.1 fixes the non working Dim level control when user supplied pictures are used. Also some smaller issues have been solved. Added Hail request / acknowledge support, the new AWM2P unit, better tracking of unit status and an option to change the color of units.

R1.2.0 adds support for user supplied pictures. Also the possibility to specify constraints has been added. Now it´s possible to eg. program a device to turn on at dusk but not before 6:00 PM. R1.2.0 also fixes some small issues.

R1.1.3 fixes issues with programming sunsets and sunrises. Also DST issues have been fixed. Added support for controlling Media Player Classic by using your X10 remote.

R1.1.2 adds some functionality and fixes the connection with the CM11A by means of the USB to serial adaptor.

R1.1.1 fixes a looping status request and a crash when logging off or shutting down Windows.
