Hi,

Is there a way to refresh the status page by setting atime or by everytime HS adds something to the log (not necessarily an event change) but more like if someone turns on a switch I see the popup advise on the change but need to refresh the status page to see the new status of the device.

I think there is a "refresh" timer in one of the web page setup screens but I can't remember which one.

It saves having to click the "refresh" icon button to see the device status.

Take a look in the web page setup screens for it.

Got it. It is under the setup->webserver

It should be updating automtically and does so very often with the latest HS release version.

Creating Devices and Icons....

Need help creatign new devices.....like virtual devices that do not have an off/on buttons etc.

Also, how do I add little icons next to a device. For e.g. add a little fan next to a fan.

pick STATUS for your device and you will not get the on/off options.



I use something like this within a recurring script:

sub main()
dim pic,s,str
pic ="<IMG src='HShouse.gif'>"
s =hs.SystemUptime
str = pic & "  Current Uptime:  " &s 
hs.SetDeviceString "z1",str
hs.SetDeviceLastChange "z1",now
End sub

This is a oneliner: that you place in the event and trigger it via STATUS CHANGE - it will allow you to have a moving fan icon if the fan is on, and a stopped one if your fan is off.

&hs.SetDeviceString "F1", hs.StringItem(";<img src='ledgreen.gif' align=absmiddle> On;<img src='ledred.gif' align=absmiddle> Off;<img src='ledgreen.gif' align=absmiddle>Dim;;;;;;;;;;;;;Unknown",hs.DeviceStatus("F1"),";")
