RE: XplHAL Service stopped

["Neil Wrightson" <neilw@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi John,
I'm currently trialling this on my normal workstation (XP SP2) not on my HA
pc (Win2K SP4) and I normally let it go into standby overnight.
I couldn't find anything useful in the event log (hub starting, listening
on
ports etc)

I thought I did not need to leave the manager going, that is just how I
left
the machine when I went to bed.

Any thoughts on the slow responsiveness of the manager in turning X10
lights
ON/OFF via the toolbar?


Regards,

Neil Wrightson.

Not seen this before, but then I don't use sleep mode :-)

Is there anything in your event log that might indicate why the service
stopped?
Also, what version of Windows are you using?

BTW, you don't need to leave xPLHal Manager running all the time, as all
the work is done by the Windows service, so you can close the manager
when you're done with it.

Regards,

John
