[OBSOLETE] SmartThings Controls X10 Switch -- Demo

Great job. I, too, have developed an x10 integration solution, and I’m sure you realized as I did that it wasn’t easy.

Question: Let’s say you have x10 switches for codes A1, A2 and A3. Do you have to write a custom device type for each one with the housecode embedded in the custom device? I have not found a way to have one custom device that can be used for multiple X10 devices as separate instances.

I’m dealing with the fact that I have to create a separate device type for each housecode. If you know a better way, I’d love to see it!

ps. I approached x10 integration through a custom hardware solution using *duino, a cm11a and a smartshield (X10 working! Requires about $115 in hardware, but is fully self-contained!). It’s good to have multiple ways of skinning this cat.
