[ANSWERED]: The (address) suffix on Event Log entries

Why is this happening and how do I correct it? Can someone explain what (address) is indicating/means?

When I add a second action to an action group, and execute the group,
in the Event Log (address) appears following the first action and that action no longer occurs.

E.g.,

Jul 10, 2015, 8:44:30 AM

Action Group Roadside Lights - ON/OFF
Sent X10 "Porch & Garage Wall Lights" on
Action Group Roadside Lights - ON/OFF
Sent X10 "Porch & Garage Wall Lights" off

=== after adding "Roadside Floodlights” action to action group "Roadside Lights - On/OFF" ===

Jul 10, 2015, 8:45:41 AM

Action Group Roadside Lights - ON/OFF
Sent X10 "Porch & Garage Wall Lights" on (address)
Sent X10 "Roadside Floodlights" on
Action Group Roadside Lights - ON/OFF
Sent X10 "Porch & Garage Wall Lights" off (address)
Sent X10 "Roadside Floodlights" off

Re: The (address) suffix on Event Log entries

It is an optimization Indigo is using to send fewer X10 commands. It combines commands on the same house code so that in some cases only the X10 address is sent, and then later the X10 ON or OFF command is sent which targets multiple X10 modules on the same house code. If you don't want Indigo to do that, then uncheck the Group X10 addresses on transmission checkbox inside the interface optionals dialog (inside the prefs dialog).
