On the Device Management page there is a column labeled Address. (Unless you have it turned off in HS settings.) You can also view by clicking the device name like you were going to edit the device. Go to the advanced tab and the second line is Technology Address.
Endgame was well worth seeing. I went last Friday evening with a group of 7.

Jeff:
I was not familiar with the Device Tech Address - are those relatively new? It would make the code more legible than just using a device RefID.
I would love to update all my HSTouch screens tonight, but I'm off to see "Avengers: Endgame"...

Or if you prefer using the non changing Device Tech Address.
hs.DeviceVSP_GetStatus(hs.GetDeviceRef("Location 1 HST Name 0"), hs.DeviceValue(hs.GetDeviceRef("Location 1 HST Name 0")), ePairStatusControl.Status)
Just replace 0 with the number for the day you want to display.

Use Status Text.
and if you want to use it in a script.
hs.DeviceVSP_GetStatus(RefID, hs.DeviceValue(RefID), ePairStatusControl.Status)

To try to be more succinct,Code:[$SCRIPT=&hs.DeviceString(xxx)]

Jeff with the way you are doing the day names now (looks like a full week's worth, value is chosen based on numeric value), how do I use that in HSTouch?
Puzzled

No problem. I would still recommend that you take a look at the Locations tab and view the date formats in the dropdown. There are 3 new ones. I've been using the 3/26/19 format.

Okay, chalk this up to "ye of little patience" -- I had just created the Day 2-7 Date devices, but it appears they hadn't hit the forecast update cycle - when I came back to my system, they now all are of the same format. Sorry about that, chief...
Regards,
Paul

Try this. Go to the Locations tab in wxml. Near the top is Date Format for this location. Click on the dropdown and select a format. The next time that the forecast runs check to see if the date matches the selected format.

Definately, move to using the device string. I have been moving away from ini files as there have been many times that they have gotten corrupted and I have had to pull out my backups. weatherXML used to have 6 ini files but I am down to 3 now. When I rewrite the alerts section that will get rid of one more ini file.

Should just be able to do this:
Code:[$SCRIPT=&hs.DeviceString(5678)]
