HouseBot

Hi Scott, "What speed is your CPU and are you getting a lot of paging (you mentioned your large pagefile)? " Celeron 300Mhz 64Mb ram Don't know what a lot og paging is? "One more thing. Try and create the Interface from the main Hardware Interface screen. If you click on the 'Hardware...

When you get the system restarted, do you find that the Interface was actually created? Yes it was Does it lock if you create another type (not the Generic Serial) Interface Yes tried X10 and locked also locks if i try and make a new theme with wizard But can make without crashing ------------------...

Hi Scott, I click on HouseBot icon to start it Everything is normal, gets to your new overview page that has descriptions of the Themes Tasks etc, the hover function works showing descriptions Things that work ------------------- I select File/New/Interface from pull down menu Create new Interface w...

Hi Scott, [Was the problem with creating an Interface or a Device? Can you create any other types of Interfaces or Devices, or does it lockup for all of them? ] It seems to be anything i try to add New? [If you have any 1.x versions of the plugins running, I would suggest upgrading to the 2.0 versio...

Hi Scott, Major problem with Win98? I am using HouseBot V2.00 I was using V1.63 with no problems and installed V2.00 over the top of this. I now have a fresh install of V2.00 only (not over the top) in case above was problem! If I try and add a new Interface from the pull down menu and select for ex...

Hi Scott, Thanks for considering it, I am surprised no one else has suggested it before. I came to your software as a novice, I just found it so hard to remember what linked to which task etc! Having all in the same folder would simplify things! As an example, when you come back after a few months j...

Hi Scott A "project" may be for example, "my house that is controlled by X10" another may be "controlling winamp" etc It would be more logical if i had a folder with: "House X10" with All tasks, devices in that folder "Winamp" with All tasks, devices...

Hi Scott, Your doing well! In my opinion, its the usability that is the problem, i was doing some work with it today and I still find it hard to remember what links to what Any chance each "project" can have its own folder with all the associated files, tasks, devices etc contained in that...

Hi Scott

Anyone else want to add anything?

Hi, I have looked on Group, but can't find an answer. When we download an updated version of HouseBot do we install over the top of our current version or remove it, then install? What do we have to do to keep out current "setup" and install it in new version? Anything else we should be aw...

Hi Yoram & Scott, Just to let you both know, that I now have my program running, and I coudn't have achieved it without your help! I still have a few things I want it to do, but I will try and do it on my own! Scott, you are correct "A picture is worth a thousand words." downloading th...

Hi Yoram Slight problem! [OK, we'll take it step by step. Create a new task (by right clicking the tasks), and name it. When the task window opens, check the 'Enabled' and the 'When conditions are met' properties. In the task code below, select "add item..." and a new window will pop-up. S...

Hi [The serial device has a 'Received Data' property. You need an automatic task (execution mode-when conditions are met) that would compare the 'received data' to what you are expecting ("GB"). I suggest that immediately after that you reset the received data (otherwise you would run into...

Thanks Scott



Now works fine, I though I would reply as I am sure someone else will read this in the future, so it will help them to get a WAV etc file running!
