I just ordered some x10 devices for my home. One of them accepts Ir input and allows for distribution of x10 commands. I cannot wait for it to arrive and test it out with the pronto! This should be a very nice combination. Almost a complete Home Theater now. :)

Anyone out there have this set up already?

I have the ir to x-10 running it works good. I also got one of those prymid ir extenders so I could use the pronto in the bedroom. Still have alot to learn about x-10 though. Have fun.

Tyson:

I have X10 controlled lighting, automated through my Pronto. I use a IR to X10 controller purchased through smarthome.com (4040). You will need to get the Pronto CCF file from Michael Lynch, posted on prontoedit.com, called quick_x10.ccf. It has the necessary X10 IR commands for the Pronto for X10 on / off / bright / dim for all 16 devices of a housecode. Yes, it only supports one housecode. Note that I have found it is often necessary to send two X10 commands to get the device to respond, so save yourself some time -- when you are setting up the Pronto and you want to, say, turn on a light -- send the following:

Numeric pad device X
Numeric pad device X
Delay 0.1 seconds
Light on
Light on

I'm enjoying being able to control both IR devices and X10 devices through the Pronto. The possibilities are endless.

Have fun.

Actually, those X10 codes for the Pronto are available on this site as well. I recommend the file by Ivan Luk, quick_x10.zip.
