I recall the CP290 being a rather simplistic one-way device. A lot like
the Heathkit X10 interface (I had both).
I've given up X10 a long time ago though I still have a number of them
I'm now using WiFi (ESP8266/Sonoff/Tasmota), ZigBee and Z-Wave devices
with great success (more than 99.999% of the time).
