Two schema are used. When the device is assigned an X10 device code then xapmcsUPB uses the xap-x10 schema. When not assigned then it uses the xapbsc schema. The xAP conduit plugin prefers xapbsc. If you have problems with the xap conduit then let me know and I'll forward mcsXap as the homeseer plugin.

Well, I believe your PlugIn is working just fine, but I'm stumped with the HS 2.0 XAP plugin. When I go into New Hardware, I have to go into raw mode to see anything, then when I add the devices, I just end up with informational devices that I can't control. I'm curious, when you assign an X10 code in your plug in, is this suppose to be what gets assigned in HS? Also, I'm not so sure that my schema file is complete either.

It is not very useful if it is not controllable.
With mcsXap It is totally transparent to the homeseer user that it is an xAP node vs. a Homeseer plugin. Give me your email via PM or post and I will email mcsXap. I also need to know what X10 plugin you are using with Homeseer to give you proper setup guidance.
I did update mcsXap for HS2 1938, but I know some things have changed through 1955. I'll give it a spin around the block on HS2 before I send it to you.

Invalid Port number
I am using UPBStart on com8 and it works fine. Com8 is an edgeport usbtoSerial com port. When I try to set the xap UPB to 8 I receive an error telling me "opnecommport line 370| Invalid port number".
Is this an issue with the edgeport or is there something else going on?

The error message contains both the procedure name and the port number of the form
"OpenCommPort " & sPort
If you fully transcribed the error line it means that it things the port number is null. Confirm on the setup from the browser that
Serial Comm IP Address is blank
Serial Comm Port is 8
I run mine with an IP rather than a COM address so I would not normally experience the problem you are seeing. If you confrim your setup and still have a problem then I'll look into it.

Confirmed comm port and ip
Originally posted by Michael McSharry

Serial Comm Port is 8
the "Comm IP" is blank.
The "HTTP Server Port" is 8016. I did make sure that 8016 was open in my firewall.
I am using the GUI but when the browser does work the same info is there.
I did try changing the comm port to 3 (non edgeport comm) and received the same error. In the message it says commport but it is referring to the HTTP server Port. If I change the HTTP port number to anything it does show up in the message so something is mixed up.
I tried putting the 8 in the "HTTP server port" and the 8016 on the commport to see if the labels were backwards and I did not receive an error but the "Browser" web page did not work.
Let me know if there is anything else you need. Thanks.Last edited by jasv; October 24, 2005, 09:17 AM.James

I mapped port 6 into my PIM and setup with 6 as the port and all worked as it should. I posted my current compile as Version 1.3.32. At least start there and see if a problem still occurs. Also observe any prior messages that may indicate an error. The normal startup will have two messages. The first is the IP port used for xAP and the second is the COM port used for the PIM. I do not belive there is any relationship with the edgeport and the error.

Something differenet
With the most current version posted, I still receive the message.
I decided to ignore the message and shutdown (exit) the mcsxapUpb program. When I restarted it, I received the message in the homeseer log that it opened comport 8 without any problem but I did get this message in the log.
10/24/2005 12:49:02 PM - mcs.upb.homesee - readups line 1170 object variable or with block variable not set
I think I did the setup correctly and exported the *.upe to both the data directory as welll as a copy to the same directory as the executable.
I am trying to reboot my computer now and I will et you know if anything changes.James
