The first beta of Indigo 1.6 is available for download:

http://www.perceptiveautomation.com/ind ... o_beta.dmg

The beta supports the Active Home Controller interface (CM15A) and has several reliability enhancements for PowerLinc (1132U/1132CU) users.

!!! Warning !!! This is a beta version of the software. It might not work correctly and you may have to revert to using a previous (1.5.5) version of Indigo. If you do have to revert to using Indigo 1.5.5, then be sure and read the next note.

!!! Important !!! PowerLinc (1132U/1132CU) and CM15A users must install the driver package included in the download (reboot is required after install). Indigo now uses a different driver to communicate with the PowerLincs (and the CM15A) and now requires a driver install. Once you have installed the driver previous versions of Indigo (1.5.5) will not be able to communicate with the PowerLincs. If you need to revert back to Indigo 1.5.5, then delete the driver file below and reboot your computer first:

Version 1.6 Details

The CM15A support includes sending/receiving all X10 commands, as well as receiving all X10 RF commands. This includes security commands, X10 A/V remote commands, and normal (palm pad, motion detectors) RF commands. Uploading logic to the CM15A is not supported; you'll need a PowerLinc Controller for that.

Power failure triggers are now supported with the PowerLinc Controller (1132CU) and the CM15A. The PowerLinc USB (1132U) continues to support power failure triggers and now there is a reliability filter that should eliminate the false power failure messages we have all seen. Because of this filter, there is now a 10 second delay before Indigo reports power failures when connected to the 1132U.

Additionally, all of the USB interfaces (PowerLincs and CM15A) will now automatically be re-connected if the USB connection is dropped for any reason.

Please let me know if you find any bugs!

Matt

A new beta of 1.6 is available:

http://www.perceptiveautomation.com/indigo/download/Indigo_beta.dmg

This build improves 1132CU upload reliability and includes some more verbose error logging if there is a communication failure between Indigo and the interface.

Additionally, all commands waiting in the interface output queue (green bars in the progress bar) now have a 15 minute life span. If you have a power (or other interface) failure that lasts longer than 15 minutes, then those stale commands will not be sent to the interface when the power is restored. This is to prevent a potentially huge backlog of commands from being sent if there is an extended outage/failure.

Let me know if you have any problems with the build!

Matt
