    Understanding the plugin?

    Hello I was just wondering about this plugin, and if I have misunderstood the purpose or if I have a problem with it?


    Am I correct,
    that the plugin does not give any events to recgonise device changes?
    ie something turning on to off.

    The only event I seem to have is an action event - which is: WOL


    Also does this plugin,
    give the computers devices in the device management?
    As I don't seem to have these, and therefore I don't understand the purpose of having a location textbox?

    Thank you

    My Devices have shown after a restart;
    one of my devices though says Not Set - and no matter what I do, I cannot seem to fix this.

      Here the PI works great, if the security cameras, security system or irrigation controller goes off line I get a text. When the livingroom or bedroom TV comes on, accent lights come on with the TV. The icons were not assigned in device manager and I had to assign them manually.

          You can use device triggers on value change of the devices

          Online=100
          Offline=0

            Great - but one of my devices says "Not Set" and doesn't change even when I restart the plugin and re-add the new IP by add new.
            In the computers section it doesn't show like the others?

              That is strange.
              Did you rename that device at all in HS3?

                Possibly at the start but I can't remember what it was set to.
                I have tried renaming it but no joy.
                It was just strange as its one device out of 30....

                In the computer status page - the devices have a red or green title to the left.
                However this one does not have a title. To the right it says online offline and minutes with a icon however on this device it is blank. BBLAN1
                And in the device management just says not set.

                  Have you tried taking that one offline and back online to see if it updates the string
