RE: Newby - Help with Homeseer /xap/ xLobby

["Bill Lott" <lottbill@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK Thanks for the offer.  I'm just getting started with xap and would like
to be able to not only turn Homeseer devices On/Off but also show current
device status within xLobby.

Here is an example of the message received by xLobby when a device is
changed in Homeseer:

xap-header
{
V=12
Hop=1
Uid=FF41909
Class=xAPBS.event
Source=mi4.homeseer.homeseer.H:Outside.GazaboLights
}
Output.state
{
State=OFF
Level=0/100
}

How do I set up xlobby to display a ".png" that will display the
status of
the outside gazebo lights??

Do you have a xlobby skin that has similar functionality that I could use a
template for learning???

THANKS AGAIN!

Hi Bill,

Glad it's working now - I use XLobby (and xAP) so any Q's I should be
able to help. I have it controlling my C-Bus Lighting, my X10 and also
now the new xAP Netiom I/O board which I intend to use to integrate my
alarm and heating systems - works well and provides realtime status
icons in XLobby and HS devices. I am just about to add CallerID as well.

At the moment the XLobby plugin is BSC focussed but I'm anticipating the
next release may expand on that..

Kevin
