UltraMon for HomeSeer 2.2:
UltraMon is a HomeSeer 2.2 plug-in that allows you to monitor your network connected devices. Multiple threading allows device monitoring to take place without disrupting the performance of HomeSeer. UltraMon also supports the ability to send a wake on LAN (WOL) packet to turn on PC's that support WOL.

UltraMon is a HomeSeer 2.2 plug-in that allows you to monitor your network connected devices. Multiple threading allows device monitoring to take place without disrupting the performance of HomeSeer. UltraMon also supports the ability to send a wake on LAN (WOL) packet to turn on PC's that support WOL.
- Written in VB.Net 2005, 100% managed code.
- Multi-threaded.
- Tested on Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista Premium.
- Free 30 Day Trial
- Available through the HomeSeer store
How It Works:
- At the selected internal, the plug-in obtains a list of devices owned by the plug-in, then sends either an ICMP ping or connects to the TCP port to determine the device stauts. The plug-in updates the HomeSeer device depending on the up/down status of the device.
- For ICMP Ping monitoring, the device string can be updated to contain a more verbose status.
- For TCP Port monitoring, the device string indicates the TCP port number being monitored.
- The device status can also be updated depending on the up/down status of the device. This option may be useful when creating events that trigger off the device status.
- The plug-in monitors selected IP subnets for new devices and allows you to easily create a HomeSeer device for hosts found on the network. A HomeSeer trigger can also be created to alert you when a new device is discovered on your network.
Features:
- Multiple threading allows monitoring to take place without disrupting the performance of HomeSeer.
- Ability to discover all devices on selected /24 subnets.
- A "Discovered" devices web page allowing you to easily create a HomeSeer device for hosts on your network.
- HomeSeer trigger for new IP addresses discovered on monitored subnets.
- Support alias (HomeSeer device name different than FQDN).
- All pre-defined device types now have an associated image (e.g. camera, laptop, pda, router, xbox, etc).
- Ability to wake up a computer via WOL packet.
- Ability to shutdown a PC using any command line application of your choosing (e.g. psshutdown.exe).
Valid device statuses are:
- Unknown - Device value of 0
- OnLine - Device value of 6 (6 or more consecutive ping successes)
- OnLine (Recovered) - Device value of 1 to 5 (1 to 5 consecutive ping successes)
- Troubled - Device value of -1 to -5 (1 to 5 consecutive failures)
- OffLine - Device value of -6 (6 or more consecutive failures)
Default Options:
- Device monitoring is enabled.
- Five minutes between checks.
- Ping device 2 times before marking a device unreachable.
- Device monitoring begins 60 seconds after HomeSeer starts.
- Ping timeout of 1 second.
- Flag device failed after 5 consecutive failures.
