Re: Possible bug in xPLHVision

["Bob & Linda Gardner" <gardner.bob@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Frank,

I guess I always thought of the Device as being A1 or P1, etc. not
just 1.  I am a little confused still.  I don't understand why Force
On and Force Off appear to be different relative to the boxes they
display.  If I look in the xml file it appears they should have the
same characteristics.

Always more to learn I guess.
