X10 Receiver not working. (32 bit)

Hi there,

First thanks very much for all your hard work on the latest update!

I have just completed the update to Ventura today and completely forgot about the fact that the W800 USB receiver is 32 bit. Any suggestions as to how to receive X10 signals going forward? Possible? I still have several very functional motion detectors and keypads that run like champs. Sending to X10 devices seems to work fine with the Insteon 2413U. I still haven't found a satisfactory OUTDOOR+ Compact replacement for the X10 motion detectors. At any price point!

The W800 usb being 32-bit is not impacted by Ventura being 64-bit, so something else is going on. What errors are you seeing in the Event Log when Indigo tries to connect to it?

Hi Jay,

I actually see no reaction in the logs, nothing, I've tried triggering several X10 drives near the antenna thinking any one may be having issues. The communication port hasn't changed. Possibly the receiver has a bad power supply, it's rather old obviously. I'll put a meter on it.

HEH, no power supply.

I unplugged/plugged the USB cord and disabled/enabled the interface and it popped right up. Just a glitch apparent. A big WHEW. Thanks Jay.
