I have been testing the operation of the CADDX plugin for several weeks now and ran into a problem setting up events for a zone faulted condition. I created the event using the CADDX : Zone option, then specifying the zone name, and finally selecting the 'faulted' condition. The action was to speak the event so I could walk around using HSTouch to "hear" when the zone faulted.
Out of some 10 zones, I could only get one to work correctly. In each case of testing the 10 zones by motion or opening a door or window, the status in HS3 device management converted from GREEN Check-mark to RED X and then back again when the condition returned to normal. SO the plug-in seems to be detecting that the zone faulted correctly but 9 of 10 events would not detect that the zone faulted.
Finally I converted each event to use "If device changes and becomes", then naming the zone, and then specifying the condition 'faulted'. All 10 work perfectly.
I thought I would mention this as I could only get one to work using CADDX:zone and all 10 using device control. Not sure if you have ideas on why the CADDX:zone option did not work but the device control did.
I did disbale the plug-in once, deleted all devices, did a zone rescan again, and created new devices again, and still could not get the CADDX:zone option to work for events.
