Re: @James - Homeseer Plugin - Solved ??

["turner228" <kevin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi marc

Is that Ultramon for Homeseer 2 you are running or the one for

I see thread you reference is a description of the HS 2 one but he
is only on the second test release at the moment (released oct 6)

Of course James also has a similar xAP app called xAP Ping available
from

Kevin

p.s. the link to the zip is broken ;)
