Hi
I need to trigger a response to reboot my broadband router at my holiday home but it is not on the home control menu. What are the steps to either reprogram the Home Control menu or to trigger the code sequence directly?
In comfigurator on my laptop the response no is 337, and the code sequence is 195, 65, 5, 7, 194, 19, 0, 18, 1, 255
I\'ve never used dial up programming so would not know where to start.
Thanks
Pete

The action 195, 65, 5, 7, 194, 19, 0, 18, 1, 255 is
X10 A5 Off
Do Response 1 After 18 Seconds Using Timer19
If you can connect to the system remotely by UCM/ETH then you can Execite the Response directly in the Responses screen by selecting the response and clicking \"Execute Response\"
If you are connecting by telephone then you can use the engineer menu to program the Control menu
see the Engineer menu Programing Manual https://www.cytech.biz/engineer_menu_programming_manual.html
It is too complex to describe here, but you have to program the Control Key, add words, and action words and the Responses
Then you should be able to Press N for Control group, select Control key, and 0 for off, 1 for on using the telephone menu

Unfortunately the problem I have is that I have not connection to the house other than bby telephone at the moment (normally I RDP into a monitoring computer to manage security, cameras etc) but the broadband router seems to have crashed. It is connected to an X10 switch so I want to turn off and on again, but somehow missed it of the Home Control menu.
Looks like I\'ll need to study the Engineer Programming guide to get this to work, or just live with it until I can get to the house.
Thanks
