Just wondering here.. If you create a script that basically says 'when this switch goes ON then turn these two lights OFF" what should the source address of...
PS I do realise this masqerading as another device would require faking a source address and borrowing its UID and that seems intrinsically wrong to me....
I'm having a strange problem and we had something a little similar at UKHA2004. - I have Viewer running in hub mode and the Homeseer beta. I have a script that...
... The sending app is different - could sending from *within* Viewer use a different mechanism to sending *via* Viewer? (Stuart?) ... It would be pretty...
... There's one big contradiction here though - Viewer running on the remote machine (the one with Watcher installed) sees both messages whereas Watcher on...
... xap-hub eth0 xap-hub eth1 etc. For some debug output that may be useful: xap-hub eth0 3639 5 where 5 is the debug level (and 3639 is the UDP port) P....

... What I'm thinking is that when HomeSeer for example sends its message.display out it doesn't in any way use your hub - it simply sends the UDP packet out...
On Wed, 2 Jun 2004 13:08:30 +0100, "Kevin Hawkins" ... Oh, that old nugget! That made it into Listener. I don't honestly remember the status of that code now....
Right... Narrowed this down a bit. No problem as far as I can tell with any xFX app. If I remove the hub on the machine on which Watcher is running then it...
A question.. The HomeSeer application manifests itself as several xAP applications on the network and each one generates a heartbeat - within each virtual...
On Wed, 2 Jun 2004 14:06:49 +0100, "Kevin Hawkins" ... Remotely I don't think a Hub should care as the message doesn't originate locally, so it won't connect,...
... Yes - that's how I saw it too the remote hub just forwards it and should apply no intelligence at all. ... Hmm - a little worried here - are you saying...

I think there's a lot to be said for 1 UID per port. How else would you be able to tell whether or not an app had "gone away" and been replaced by a new app...

... I think I can answer that one, because xAPHomevision works in (almost) the same way, for the same reasons :-) xAPHomevision and xAPHomeseer both use...
Bit of a wild guess here. I wonder if this may be down to a missing chr(10) at the end of a message or maybe even a crlf in there somewhere. Once viewer has...

Seems to me that the port/uid topic is a result of trying to use the header to identify items that are logical rather than physical entities. (i.e. the...
