Folks,
Version 1.2.0 of the HAI and OnQ plug-ins has been posted to the updater. The documentation is up-to-date, although the web configuration screen is not well documented and lacks a screen shot still.
I would like to move this version into production after about a week, so please let me know if you are using it without any problems.
Just for Anogee because he has been such a faithful user (seriously!) I added some new devices that you will like. First of all, there is a Battery Level indicator. After having my own system for > 5 years, the batter(ies) started to go - they were constantly needing charging - I decided I wanted to head that off from happening again 5 years from now, so the Battery Level device and its associated numerical value can help you track that. Then, as requested, Zone Change Indicator and Special Status Change Indicator devices have been added. With the ZCI, any zone changing (e.g. ready to not-ready or visa versa) will trigger it to momentarily change to "Changed" and then back to "Not Changed". You will not see the transition while viewing with the device status change page, but it works great for a device value change trigger to launch an event or script that can interrogate the zones to see which one changed. The special status device does the same thing but for the special status alarms such as Phone Line Trouble, Freeze Alarm, etc.
And finally, several changes were made to make the plug-in more HomeSeer 2 compatible. One of which is that the COM port and some other configuration items were moved to the web config page. Moving foward more of the config items will be moved there, and I will do a web page for assigning the names to the system since the current one has been problematic lately. I will also work on the Ethernet interface as soon as HS2 gets out there.
Enjoy!
