Hi John

Have had a quick read of control.basic and sensor.basic.......

Does the xPL Messages below look correct ??

SEND setup for zone 2 command.....

xpl-cmnd
{
hop=1
source= xpl-xplhal.mainpc
target=aec-firm.mainpc
}
control.basic
{
device=ZONE2
type=FIRM
current=SEND
}

Is this one correct for requesting which zone is receiving ir
???........Sensor.basic ..ok??

xpl-cmnd
{
hop=1
source= xpl-xplhal.mainpc
target=aec-firm.mainpc
}
sensor.basic
{
device=INFRARED
type=FIRM
current=REQUEST
}

Is this message ok........Reply with  active receiving zone listed ......I
have to use Infrared as the device

xpl-stat
{
hop=1
source= aec-firm.mainpc
target=*
}
sensor.basic
{
device=INFRARED
type=FIRM
current=ZONE4
}

Thanks
Frank
