Seasons greetings to all, Brett Derek etc etc too many to mention several of you have given me much help i am now becoming more confident with HAH.

I did not ever think i would be "automated" and have as much fun and make so many friends as i have done this year.

even the SWMBO is starting to come round now she can switch things off/on from her phone (thanks gary), what is starting to upset her is it is the 7 year old who shows her what she is doing wrong!!

My solar PV is now posting to the web/pvoutput site via HAH automatically-Thanks Alan

Derek has kindly provided a replacement PCB for the Livebox, after I fried the old one.

I wanted to post the internal temp to Pachube, but having no luck.

Have set up a new feed, and provided the API key, but the Pachube Debug Info isnt even registering an attempt to post to it.

(My existing Current Cost, not yet attached to HAH) is posting OK.

XFX Viewer doesnt seem to be sending anything, although I did have a Pachube heartbeat, but that seems to have disappeared now as well.

Any thoughts?

On the xapflash wiki the sample hah ui shows four digits displayed above the phase 1 icon. I've fiddled around a little but can't find out what to change to display more than 3 digits on the ui when running it in my browser. Does anyone know if this is a configurable parameter or is it a problem of running it in a full sized browser?

Having installed and stabalised the LCD on my box I've noticed that my xAP commands don't seem to change the display. If I send a xAP command from the box, the Virtual LCD is changed but the physical one is unaffected. I can change the physical one from the web interface with the set LCD command but xAP commands from my plugboard applets seem to have no effect.

This is my send to LCD function:

I'm still waiting for my registration to come through for the Automated home website so I can't post there yet but as many people on this forum are using xAPFlash perhaps someone can help. Here's the question I will/was going to post:

Perhaps this issue is covered in the wiki but I have been unable to find it so I'll ask a newbie question here.

I know there crap but i have 12 of the buggers (wife keeps buying them)

does anyone know the code? i hvae read the wiki but am unable to get a string that works, anyone got a string working?

and which bit do you change for the data burst?

Just saw this on the XapFalsh forum. Kevin is going to post Beta 5 of xAPFlash in an unsupported deal.

Hi All

And it was all going so well......

I'd just gone throught the instructions and got to the bit where I re-named the LiveBox to initiate Telnet - that worked fine, so I ported over the -patched file - that all seems to have gone well and I'm gettting the single red flashing LED that I'd expect - however, I think I must've changed the IP address of the LiveBox somewhen 'cos I can't see it at any of the IP addresses I'd expect.
