I've been working on some changes over the xmas break for the next HAH firmware release.
One of the items is the refactoring of the /etc/xap-livebox.ini file into separate files which will be contained in the new directory /etc/xap.d/

Does anyone have experience of Byron HE206 remote control light pendants. They come with dire warnings about not using energy saving light bulbs. Some people seem to suggest that as long as you only use them as on/off devices, and don't use the dimming function, then it is OK. Anyone have any real world knowledge of this?

I've now got the WH1080 weather station added to my Corona app.

I have a node modified for 433Mhz OOK that is monitoring the transmissions fro the WH1080. This is connected via serial to the HAH.

I'm having a bit of an issue with plugboard stopping but here are the screen shots so far.

A write up will follow on here. I will add to wiki if allowed.

Hi my google calendar has stopped working; it had been running my central heating for the last 2 weeks with no problems. Luckily I have left all the old CH controls in place.

I do not see the aliasmsg arrive at the HAH. All other functions are fine (Twitter Cron etc etc). I can send a requirement to google cal and it is registered in the calendar. Heartbeat is seen.

I normally send a “relay 2 on” Alias msg  for 3 minutes to ensure operation.

Just wondering if anyone has experimented with Bluetooth presence detection on the HAH? I searched the forums and found that although the LiveBox may have Bluetooth it cannot be used due to lack of drivers?

Could an external Bluetooth dongle be added via the USB host port (and a USB hub as this port is already used for CurrentCost and JeeNodes)?

I was going crazy trying to understand why when I changed the slider to output level=x/y format that the xFXViewer always showed level=xy and was dropping the / character.  Turns out I undercover a bug in the iServer tokenizer.  (ouch).
I wonder how many of you have scratched their heads of this one like I did ?
I'll run some more tests and then push up a beta - if others want to also check out this behaviour with iServer feel free.

I would be very grateful if someone could confirm Xively is fully functional. I have read on the forum that there have been some issues with Feed ID number of 10 digits and graphs not working. I have just set up Xively for the first time and run into a problem.

Please note I am a relative novice to HAH.

Cannot get CRON working.

I am a novice to the hah so please be gentle, I may have missed something obviouse to the expert eye.

I have followed the instructions in the cron wiki over and over, but still cannot get it to issue a command. The example I am using is as follows:- 

I have had the hah up and running for just over a week and half now and feel I have made some good progress, considering my very low level software knowledge.

I am very happy to report that I have tested the 4 relay outputs, 4 inputs, 3 RF outputs, 1 x 1 wire temperature sensor, clockapplet and Google Calendar without any major issues thanks to the level of expertise on the forum.

Well I have tried on and off for days.  Current cost is not working.  Microcom picks it up nicely.

I have killed xap-currentcost and then did the following

xap-currentcost -s /dev/ttyUSB0 -i br0 -d 7 > output.log and then zipped it - attached.

I'm using a CLASSIC2 - setting i.e. 9600 baud with all the xml history.

Don't see any cc output on xfx message viewer or xap-snoop -h.  All the other stuff is fine.

Serial Schema is not enabled
