X10 slimswitch

Happily using the RFXtrx, I have a problem with the X10 slimswitch or with X10 KR 22 remote command.
I have them defined as device 'X10 switch' through the plugin, and triggers associated with it are set to 'device state change' -> 'command' -> 'On' and it works well, except if the device is already in the On state: then the command is received but not executed, probably because the device is already On.

This is a problem for me, because I would like the command to be executed whatever the state of the device: I have one switch like this to turn on or off a set of lamps through different action groups, which could also be turned on or off automatically depending on other factors. Now because of the state of the device the switch may work or not... degrading the WAF !

Any solution to that issue ? I tried setting the trigger on 'X10 code received' but nothing happens, as I guess the plugin bypasses the X10 reception.

Thank you for any help.

Re: X10 slimswitch

trigger on 'device state change' -> 'last updated'
and check in the condition if the last command is equal to 'on'.
This is how I use it, goes perfect here.
