Hi All,
I thought I would share a new script I just got working. I have a CurrentCost Envi PowerMeter device that measures power for your house. It has clamps that hook to your house wiring and measures your current electricity usage.
I am not a huge programmer but have managed to implement a very simple and crude vbs script that seems to be working. The CC128 can be added as a generic serial device to HB. When connected you see the continuous xml stream that comes in every 6 seconds. Below is a small script that can be used to parse the xml code based on Tag. Hope this can help someone else who has one of these devices. I am not an experienced coder so if there is anything I could tweak...let me know!
v/r
