I think that one of the issues is that they are swamped with hardware orders at the moment...so I suspect that he will come back as soon as he can.
I would support any efforts to take this plugin to .NET.

No announcement yet.
Has anyone heard from Peter?

Guest repliedI'd love to get the protocol, and then the smart HomeSeer folks on this board that are programming savvy could write their own plug-in. Peter could still sell hardware if he wanted.

now that would be a great idea. When I was still getting betas, it was real close to a completed project. I was actually running it quite sucessfully. The last update that came out (if memory serves me correctly) was a backwards step, not recognizing my hardware I think... Nothing from that point...
Rupp, you ought to drop him a line and see what comes of it

Jack,
I was suggesting taking over the current .net plugin that was written and simply finish it.

Anyhoo, they are on the way and he sent them w/ tracking number even though I paid for slow shipping.

Not to bad... considering you'll get them within a week or less... Also I think you may be able to ask for a specific ID # and heartbeat when ordering.... Dont forget... with a timing of 1.5 sec instead of the default 0.8 sec you can almost double the life of your batt.

I looked there also and I agree with Rupp, quite a bit more expensive. I don't know what is up with Iautomate, it is like Peter has just decided to leave us all hanging. I am really disappointed with the lack of a .net plugin. It was announced back last January, I received a few betas to test back in April and then nothing. My system overall is very stable, but if I do have a problem, the RFID plugin is the first to go south, which means my gates start opening and closing and outside lights come on. Of all the plugins that have been converted to .net, this was one that was definate candidate. I will be interested to hear how the tags and such from this other company work with the Iautomate readers
