Patrick

This is what I've been wanting to do almost except I was looking at

Comfort->UCM->xAP Connector->XLobby Server PC->PPC Client
display

I was hoping to see if I could do basic control of Comfort itself via
XL + xAP (schema seems to suggest this will work) and also execute HA
activity programmed against Comfort responses.  Maybe also, report
some Comfort transmitted outputs info on XL.  Do you think the xAP
connector can provide this data?

I'd also like to get my hands on a xAP connector with compatible
cygwin.  Any chance? ;-)

Regards

Richard
