Installed HS on a new machine I set it up with the same IP and everything. I can't control the devices, when I went into the config wizard and ran it it found HS but said i needed to add it as a new device. Anyway around this or do I have to start over?

I'm not sure what all steps you followed, but you do have to copy everything over from the old computer/folder to the new one. It is talked about in many threads on the board. A quick search pulled up this one:

Wanted to revive this thread... I finally moved HS3 to a new PC.
When I ran the wizard again I get the following error
"You tried to connect to a different system by editing an existing one. Please use the "add a new system" wizard.
So is my original statement correct? I have to start over? Imperhome doesn't allow you to move the system and update?

You can overwrite the default system id from the Config/ImperiHome.ini file. Edit this file and add the name of your old system in the [ISS] section:
Code:[ISS] system_id=HS3 <your old machine name>
