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

["gmotichka" <gmotichka@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well I got it to work. After I figured out that I could not use=20
the "current" paramater (since it would hardly ever match"
and only=20
use the device and type ones.

I know have one determinator that gets all the temps (5 of them)=20
from HV. Part of the action is to run other determinators to put=20
those values into a global. Then I have a re accuring event to run=20
the first detminator every 15 minutes.=20

So another success with your help. I'll have to think up something=20
else to do with it now.

I am excited about how this is working out.

Thanks again
George
