Re: Trouble getting flags set in HV - I found it!!

["gmotichka" <gmotichka@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Frank

I feel bad about all the time you are spending with me. Please, when
you have had enough, just tell me.

What my goal, (and it is not really that important other than to
continue to learn how this all operates. I have working what I
reallyh wanted too) is to get the temperatures stored in HV in
variable. I have periotice events in HV that collets temperatures
and puts them into variable. For instance variable 5 has the
exterior temperature -- lets say 51 (nice day here in Colorado)

So I was going to collect that temp from variable 5 in HV and put it
into global HV-EXT_TEMP. Figured it would be simple - but hasnt
been. My thougt process was to ceate a determinator and the
condition would be to get the temp from HV and the action would be
to put tht temp into the global. Once i had that working I could
create a repeating event to update it.

Obviously my logic is off somewhere -- just dont know where.

I must say, I am excited about how everything else is working. Hope
Bob gets his going.
