No Problem at all......

The input condition is "Watching" for a temp message what you
need to do
first is create a Determinator which "Request" the temp ie put
the message
in the actions of the Determinator....

Then create another Determinator which "Watches" for the reply
from
Homevision and "Äction"
store the temp value in a global

1: Determinator to request temp action only

Target must be  gshed-hvision.yourname
schema= control.basic
message paramters below ...get this working first see if hv responds and
then we will work on saving the temp in a global

device=5
type=variable
current=request

HTH
Frank
BTW.........What time is it in Colorado ...???Here in Melbourne Oz its
10:40
am (sat)
