Re: @James - Homeseer Plugin - Solved ??

["marcrfuller" <yahoogroups@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi kevin,

It's UltraMon for Homeseer 2. I can't remember where I got version
1.2.0 from, but it's the version UltraJones recommended I use with HS2.

I think I'll take a look at xAP ping too :)

Thanks

Marc
