    Cannot Change Devices

    Larry,

    Any status on the issue of the devices being changed and losing all connection to the plug-in?

    As a recap - if you change the location or name of a VWS device, the plug-in stops talking to it.

    Information stored in the Plug-In Extra Data storage should be used to help the plug-in find its devices at startup so that it can keep the device reference IDs for updates - this allows the plug-in to work no matter what happens to the device, other than being deleted!

    I have had no updates on my devices since May 5th when I changed their location settings.
    Regards,

    No update yet, I must take the time to learn Plug-IN Extra Data concept first.
