Hi Ken,

In the HAL directory that you install your v6 upgrade you will find a file called errata.txt

This file while not a complete listing of changes will give you an overview.

Regards,

Tim

Hi Tim,

Is there a feature listing we can see before we purchase? Mainly to see if upgrading is right for us.

Hi Darrin,

That page is under construction. We didn't want to hold up the rest of the website release for it and one other page...

I will let you know when the page is accessible.

Regards,

Tim

Hi Tim,
Any update on this? I am searching for specific features and unsure what V6 has over V5. I haven't even seen screenshots.

Thanks again,

Hi Darrin,

The page should be live by the end of the week. Some screen shots are throughout the new site... on the main page as well as on this page. http://www.automatedliving.com/ayh.aspx For example, click on the HomeNet tab to see screen shots of the new HomeNet pages.

Regards,

Tim

Tim,
Clicked the link you specified above... and seen the thermostat in homenet. I have the Z-wave TZ43, and my Tstat on homenet doesn't look like yours... I only have UP/DOWN on left side... so I can only control heat. How do I get UP/DOWN on right side to control cool temp? This would help in iPhone App as well. Thanks

Hi Rob,

I will have to ask about that... I know that typically if the stat can allow for the setting of both the heating and cooling set points, then both sets of buttons are shown. I was using a UPB Stat. I'm curious if you put the stat into Auto Mode, if you get both sets of buttons.

Regardless I will get more details for you,

Tim

Thanks TIm!

Looks Great! A couple of questions and this may need to be put in the programming spot.

I know HAL is somewhat closed to commands...and I understand this is home automation?, but do you foresee a way to do this?

"How many pints in a gallon?", "Who was George Washington?"

Also, In the IM dispatch...I see you can send a text..."Turn on the bedroom lights"....is that now possible using the HALi ActiveX or would I still have to get the tag like below:

AxHALi1.ASR.SpeakToHal("%D_01. TURN ^ ON .$D BEDROOM LIGHTS .")

Thanks again!
