Programming an X10 device

[Craig Malton]

I know I saw this somewhere in the documentation but can't find it now. I
have a brand new X10 light switch I want to install. The switch itself has
no dials on it to set the X10 address. What I need to do is go to the X10
device, hold in a button for a few seconds and then send the X10 address
over my controller. How do I do this with Misterhouse?

Thanks,

The dial-less X10 devices I have are programed with data like ID ON. So
you should be able to create an X10_Item with the desired address, then
simply send an ON command.

I use a 'mini-console' and just manyally push the A1 then On buttons.
