Has anyone used the arduino with an x10 powerline module before? If so, do you know how exactly you got it to interface.
There is a claim that it is an rs232 connection, which I vaguely understand. So from that standpoint, does anyone have any pointers.
Sorry for being so vague, I can get more specific if needed, I just don't want to burn ideas before I hear them.

After realizing that we had a c290 controller module, I have decided to mess with that.
It has a 5 pin connection on the back (old style large DIN), 3 of which allow serial communication (input/output and ground).
Now, it uses a special style of communication apparently, and me being more of a novice, haven't gotten around that point yet.
If anyone else wants to help take a crack at this or share some knowledge, I would appreciate it very very much.
here is the manual with the information:

Thanks!
