RE: xPL-LCD Update

["Neil Wrightson" <neilw@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Frank,

I'm new to all of this (xPL). I have the HAL,  Manager and X10 installed.
The X10 works.
What simple new things can I do to learn the power of xPL. I currently use
MH for my normal HA.

How do I get the devcomm app and install it. Where does the "OSD
schema" fit
in and "CONTROL.BASIC schema"

Where are you writing you PC code.

Regards,

Neil Wrightson.

Hi Neil
The xPL-LCD uses Tonys devcom app which is used for serial
devices....Im using the OSD schema to talk to the LCD .......and also use
the CONTROL.BASIC schema for reporting the status of the
buttons..........The lcd talks native xPL....

HTH
Frank
