== Question ==

'''How do I use command line arguments to control my modules using Activehome?'''

== Answer ==

There is a file in c:\program files\home control called '''x10comm.exe'''. This program will accept arguments on the command line for control of your X10 modules.


The syntax is as follows:

*To turn a non-dimming module on:

'''x10comm.exe a1 on'''


*If it is a dimmable module, then use the following: 
 
'''x10comm.exe a1 dim to 020%'''


The dimming percentage is listed as a 3-digit number with the percent sign after it.
