I have a few X-10 modules and I’d like to connect them to my Apex classic, can it be done and how?

you need a psc04 or PL513 module that will convert the x10 signal from the rj11 line to power line.

I have that but how do I initiate the switch in the apex platform?

try setting up virtual outlet for DC8 or DC4 module.

I don’t think I can do that from the iPad, or I can’t go through fusion.

right, you have to do it with direct browser connection to your apex. you should be able to use safari on ipad to connect to your apex directly.
