RE: Slimp3 connector help

[UKHA]

Hi Kevin

Yep i'm hooked already.

At the moment i am using HV to send a Xap message using the Run program
command,
so for instance if one of my PIR camera's is triggered, (which is connected
in
parallel to one of HV's input ports) HV performs an action. ie Run program
"c:\gatecam.xap this is picked up by Stuart's send Xap message service
and then
targeted to the Slimp3.
The Slimp3 is now able to 'tell' me which camera has been triggered (i've
got
eight around the outside of the house!).

I'm afraid i'm not really up to speed with writing my own apps. I was
thinking
of getting something like Teach yourself Visual Basic in 21 Days unless
anyone
else can recommend me a book.

The idea of sending xap messages to HV and vice versa is really appealing.

Cheers
Martin

Hi Martin..

Welcome to xAP, be warned it's addictive !

Interested... a quick Q..

How are you triggering the sending of a xAP message from HV
?? Are you formatting a xAP serial message and passing it into a xAP bridge
or do you have a small application taking serial input 'triggers' and
outputting xAP messages ? Or... ??

I was thinking that a very simple xAP application schema could be
devised for this that could be very useful for controlling a multitude of
serial based devices - eg AV amps etc that haven't got direct support. In
this way any HV serial command could be sent to HV (via xAP) and received
causing a xAP message to originate. This I am guessing would be just a few
lines using xAP Framework.

serial.received
{
port=2
data= I have done what you asked
}

serial.send
{
port=2
data= please do this
}

serial.initialise or serial.setup
{
port=2
baud=9600
stop=1
start=1
parity=none
}

PS Yes.. Yahoo is dreadful at the moment - all posts seem to be randomly
delayed and appear in all the wrong order for me !
