HouseBot

I just finished integrating the ELK M1 using vbscript for HouseBot. I handles just about all ELK M1 functions and more. PLC codes are not supported since I don't use that. Hey Richard, would you be willing to share your script? I just got an M1 and was looking into integrating it with HB too... Tha...

Unfortunately I think I've lost the source but if anyone else has it please feel free to post/distribute it. Also please note that this was written by me personally so Meedio may not be able to support it (I am actually no longer a Meedio employee). Unfortunately because of time constraints I probab...

Yes, I hear you and I do understand. We're doing the best we can with the available resources. We do have some updates planned but the effort involved is not insignificant.

To answer Heff and loo_hoo_ser - You can set a jump target name for any module in the Meedio Essentials configuration tool and then in Meedio HouseBot set the value of the "Message to Send" property of the Meedio Connector device to: system.jump target=jumpname where jumpname is the name o...

Can you double-check that the value of your property tag is exactly the same spelling as the name of the property in Meedio HouseBot? For example, it may be 'Leviton Dim Level' instead of just 'Dim Level'. Also can you confirm that you can control the dim level from within Meedio HouseBot directly?

Thanks for your reply. I know how views work, I just wanted to read that I could create extra props in stead of extra views. So I made some extra views with the same names, but they will always show up with a max of three props where I would really like just one view with all available props. Lets ...

Regarding views, check out that section of the documentation at http://meedio.com/WebHelp/ml_views.htm. Basically you can define custom categories to use for grouping devices. For example, you could have a view that shows all your devices grouped by type (i.e. "lights" or "HVAC" ...

Please post your feedback on the Meedio HouseBot Connector pre-beta release here.

OK, if you guys are willing to be guinea pigs before I post this to MAID you can access the pre-beta version here:

Please let me know how it goes.

Due to popular demand we have decided to release the HouseBot Connector plugin as an open (pre-)beta. http://www.meedio.com/images/screenshots/myhome.png Meedio Essentials-HouseBot Connector ==================================== This package includes a set of plugins which allow Meedio Essentials and...

It really depends on what it is you want to do. What specific problem are you trying to solve?

We have a set of plugins that will integrate Meedio Essentials and Meedio HouseBot. They have been in a pre-release state for a while now but we have decided to release them as an open beta. They should appear in MAID within one or two weeks. I will post back here once they are available.

We are working on a new version of MAID that will make it easier to post HouseBot plugins but for now there are a few tricks to posting them under the Extensions category. If you'd like to email it to me (alan at meedio) I'll package it up and post it for you.

It certainly is possible if you are comfortable with VBScript. Read the helpfile for the Script Device to find out how to set/get property values from within a VBScript. You will need some skills (you know, like nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, VBScript skills :lol: ) but it is not too difficult.

Thanks, we'll make a note of it.
