Steve,

2 suggestions.. take a look at ACE (www.honesoftware.com) - be quick though
as the price is about to go up! Alternatively, you could do what I do with
my "spare" CM12, which is to run another instance of Homeseer,
and a
"cluster" script wot i wrote, which lets the 2nd HS PC monitor
the main one,
and take over from it if it fails...
