HomeVision Help needed

["Andy Bovingdon" <bov@xxxxxxx>]

Quick question regarding HomeVision. I have put together a basic set of
code
for the thing, but my timers are not working correctly and the manual
does
not
give any decent examples. I have a light with an "on" action that
starts a
timer
running so that it gets turned off again after a few minutes. So:

1) Is the timer action code only run when the timer is ringing or is it
run
each
     cycle so that you have to test for the timer to
ring?
2) If the timer is running, say it started at 10 and is now at 5, then I
set
the
     same timer to a new value, say 20, and start, I
presume that timer,
     which was at 5 and counting down, will now be at
20 and counting down.
     So repeatedly sending an on signal will simply
reset the clock?

Also, are there any good locations for sample code - ways to do common
things,
and is there any way to program this thing without the odd restrictions
that
their
software introduces? I'm getting annoyed that I cannot cut and paste an
entire
If-then-else construct...
