I just started using my new HV-serial add-on, and I am able to send commands to an INSTEON modem (confirmed by an action taking place), but I'm not able to...
As it turns out, the timeout was the cause of not seeing any serial events. Setting that to 50ms or 100ms now gives me data. Unfortunately the data seems...
Tom, The Insteon modem is transmitting binary data. The string of numbers shown below is the hex representation of 9 bytes: 02 60 AA AA AA 03 05 54 06 When...
That was it! I've been using the Docklight Scripting to see the serial data on the computer, and it was showing hex characters so I just assumed that I should...
I'm having a heck of a time with IR noise on my HV unit. When I check the logs, I get 1,000's and 1,000's of entries like this: A3 Unknown IR Signal 12 A3...
By any chance is there a command "Put binary value @ var into Result Value", rather than only "Put binary value of char # into Result Value"? When dealing with...
Do you have a new LCD/Plasma tv? These will definitely cause problems... and if the IR sensor is to close to it can actually overload HV causing an error....
... Assuming you don't really need the result to be in the Result Value, you should be able to use the following (untested): Serial port 1 (PC): Copy 10 chars...
I have the same problem with an LCD screen. I bought the Russound LCD friendly IR input and it helped a little but did not stop the noise. I ended up...
Several times I've click to open the actions of a macro and received the error below. I'm generally able to continue working just fine (so I don't feel like I...
As you could probably tell from my recent flurry of messages, I've been working on using serial commands to integrate HomeVision with INSTEON devices via the...
Tom, While I appreciate people reporting bugs to me, your message doesn't contain enough information for me to track down the problem. I have recently created...
I didn't even realize it, but I was double-clicking (only on occasion) which is when the error did happen. I also did re-type the error message, so "anchro"...
George, I haven't had any success with the hvsend command. 1. It doesn't pick up the -a or -p parameters. I can only use defaults or change them with the...
Dave, I wish I had a good excuse... a coding error on my part with the -p option, the -a option works correctly. I did test the -p and it was NOT working...

I've had really good luck with the Xantech CFL-friendly receivers. ... From: robert_green1963 To: homevision-users@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, May 04, 2008...
Dave, Schelte has placed a new version of hvsend.zip (v1.00g) on the HomeVisionXL downloads page, which we believe is fully functional. Schelte found that some...

George, Thanks so much for making those changes so quickly. On my system, if I telnet into HVXL, it's often a few seconds before I receive the welcome...
-- In homevision-users@yahoogroups.com, "Bruce Fisher" ... Thanks for the feedback, Bruce. I researched the archives and at least one user said it didn't make...
Blake, When you were getting the IR RX LED flickering, did you try disconnecting the IR receiver from HomeVision? If the flickering stops, then we know it's ...
Also try disconnecting the serial cable if its connected. A while back I had a similar problem and tracked it to a dodgy serial port in the pc, this then...
I just uploaded two Adobe Reader documents to the files section of this group within YahooGroups. For those of you who have only known this group through...
I'd like to integrate with a heating system (Honeywell Hometronic) that has a web interface add-on controller. This controller has the ability to be...
Hallo, What is the best way to connect homevision-pro with the computer when ther is a distance of 25 meter between both. Serial or usb cable ? Serial to UTP ?...
Tom, Many thanks for these. I believe importing the macros can be done by cutting and pasting the macros from one schedule file to another. I used that...
I would go for Serial. I've used Serial links of over 20m. You may need to drop the comms rate but USB has a limitation of 5m it is possible to increase the...
