I have a fairly current homevision (about 3 years old) with an expansion panel, a couple of extra serial ports....and probably something else I am forgetting. ...
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone else using HVXL in the client mode is having issues with it slowing down? I have a dedicated PC running HVXL with no issues....
Glen, Do you have any plug-ins running as well? Especially the object tracking plug-in will keep on collecting data, using up more and more memory. Can you...
I'm still migrating my ACE stuff to HomevisionXL Control screeens. One thing I can do with ACE is launch a .vbs script from HV that goes out and gets weather...
... The control plug-in is designed to display and modify HomeVision object states. Getting weather data from the web and displaying it doesn't really have...
Hi Schelte, ... Actually the file contents are mapped to labels on buttons, etc., so they are actually strings. In Homevision I can execute a .vbs script which...
Bob, Your parsing approach won't work. The control plug-in only reads the .ctl file on startup or when you tell it to open a file. The ACE method indeed sounds...
Thanks, Schelte. Give me a little time to get my head around this so I'm sure I understand it - it usually takes me a few times through. I'll also get together...
I am trying to register a digital temp sensor with HVPro XL and am getting errors when I try to save from the "Configure Digitial Temp Sensors" screen. In...
Chuck, On the Digital Temperature Sensors object screen (under the Objects/Events menu) you can add sensors and manually enter the serial numbers (in decimal)...
Schelte, Very cool! I played around and got this working today and it's great. I thought about the idea of using the plugin to extract data and set the...
Schelte - I have the Semdmail plugin 0.4 running. If I try to get to the Plugins->Sendmail->Configure screen while the Keramik theme is set in Preferences, I...
Schelte - I've seen similar behavior on my system when using HVXL on a client (as well as the server). I haven't noticed a time factor with mine. Sometimes it...
... Great. I actually found a use for this new feature in my own setup too :-} So thanks for suggesting it. ... I guess it's a matter of taste. I prefer to...
Ron, The easiest quick-fix will be to change line 801 of the sendmail plug-in from: package require tablelist_tile into: package require tablelist A real fix...
Ron, So this is really a problem that only shows up in client mode. That's good to know as it greatly reduces the area where the problem can be. I'll see if I...
Schelte - I tried the weather plugin but get the following error: Error in plugin weather: can't read "var": no such variable while executing "ControlSetVar...
Ron, I did say that the code was untested, although I can't see how you can get that error if you used the exact code I posted. To double-check I now tested...
Schelte - Yes, there was a problem with the regexp line that wasn't obvious to me at first I had cut and pasted from your email, so I wasn't expecting any...
You are fast! Thanks. I can't believe I didn't see the temp sensor screen under objects. If the kids go to sleep early I should be reading temps from the...
Chuck, When using HomeVision-Pro, you should only connect the sensors directly to HomeVision-Pro. Thanks, Craig Chadwick President Custom Solutions, Inc....
Schelte, I have been troubleshooting for the last week and it seemed to work fine when the control screen was not open, however, as Ron says it is somewhat ...
I have a customer who has upgraded to Vista and is now unable to connect to his HV-Pro via HV-ProNet. He has installed new Lantronix drivers and he says he...
There is an xPL connector for HomeVision that communicates via DDE. This connection doesn't work with XL. Is there any way to get xPL stuff connected to...
Hi Schelte, After reading your reply and thinking about it, I like the idea of a dedicated plugin that does the entire task as you suggest instead of separate...
Has anyone tried this? I was thinking of getting some of these. http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/P/B00013VM58.01-A25HIY2IH6T491._SS500_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg Ed...
Looks interesting. The only thing I have found with some energy saving bulbs, is that as they get older they seem to generate more noise. So I guess you could...
