Hi Frank,

You are correct. Since 90% of all my automation is done with HV,
including TTS, I want to get info to it. I now know that the
temperatures I get with TOM10 is in C.. In order to function as I
would like, the C... temp (18.6) would have to be converted to F...
and then that result sent to a variable in HV.

It may be too much to ask Steve to alter his code to accomodate
this, but as you said, there are a lot more F... user that will be
using xPL.
