Re: Could use some help with the HomeVision Plug In

["gmotichka" <gmotichka@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Frank. Your pictures really helped.
I was almost there with the Macro, but was stumped because Macro was
not a choice to pick from on the drop down. Is there way to have it
available so one doesnt have to edit each one?

I tried to edit the gshed.xml file in the plug in directory to
add "macro" to the dropdown list, but it did not show up when I
went
back to the configuration screen.

I feel like I am getting somewhere now.

The next thing I cant get my mind around is -- do I have to build  a
derminator for every x10 address in order to eliminate the other
receivers I have (i.e. one for C and one for M and one for F etc.)or
is there a way to do a global scheme where any x10 received by the
W800 is executed by HV?
