RE: HAL2000 Again

[Eamon O'Gorman <eamonogorman@xxxxxxx>]

I got it working, it was a problem with the date/time format. HAL support
in the US gave me the fix. If anyone else has a similar problem let me know
and I'll forward the mail they sent me.
Thanks,

Eamon

Not really i'm afraid. Have you got the UK version and assuming you have
there is only the usual date time format places in Windows to check. I have
not had any problems like that - mine have all been to do with X10 signals
not getting out of the computer unless one is sent manually first. It then
works for a time but eventually gives up again. I have checked the IR-X
board, the plug adapter into the wall and had the same problem on more than
one pc so I am at a bit of a loss at the moment.

Plenty of other stuff to keep me occupied but I will get back to it sooner
or later. Get the rest of the house in order first.

I would also like to try the whole house mics but as you say - all the kit
is a little expensive.

Ian,

I am having trouble with my schedules and reminders in that they seem to
register, but don't process. I'm not using outlook as my reminder etc ? I
have heard it might be something to do with the dat/time format, do you
have any ideas ?

Regards,
Eamon

As I mentioned in my earlier post there is not a modem in the UK which
works
with HAL. There is a modem test program installed with HAL and I suggest
you
run this to try and get some idea of compatibility of your current one. I
have a US Robotice all singing and dancing external one which is crap with
HAL. Essentially it does not work at all and I gave up after struggling for
a while. Lots of other good HV stuff to play with to keep me out of trouble
(or in it).

Call Quantun Systems on 01792 464636 for an up to date view. They are the
official UK distributors. I have found them to be very helpful but hindered
a bit by lack of support from the US.

Ian

Another question regarding HAL2000. I downloaded the trial version and have
been playing about with it. I even went out and bought a brand new internal
voice/fax modem to get the voicemail options working. I'm having problems
with this though, firstly when I call into my PC, HAL answers and then
seems to try to set up a data/fax call rather than play my recorded message
and take the call. Also when I use HAL to dial out a number, it fails
completely. It seems to take the phone off hook alright, but seems to have
problems dialling digits (no pulse or tones can be heard). My modem works
fine, as I use it on internet, and other software that came with it for
answermachine capabilities works fine.

Any ideas, or has anyone come across this  ?

Regards,

Eamon
