Found the first bug:
Deleting buttons doesn't really delete buttons. ![]() And what is the command for Next/Previous channel?

Thanks....I found the delete button issue, will get that corrected in next version. For now, it would be best just to delete the entire device and re add the buttons. For next/previous channel, you can use Up/Down or Page Up/Page Down. They should send the same command. I will add Channel Up/Channel Down next time around. Michael

I'm confused. What is this and how is it used?

mbowling,
Basically it lets you add a Sage UI (on the server, a client, or an extender) as a HomeSeer Device (see attached) that then lets you add your own buttons. For example, in the attached I added Play, Stop and Pause. Obviously you can control this from the InControl web page, events or scripts as well, but this allows you to gather all of your HomeSeer devices in one place. In addition, I have not tried this, but I believe tools such as HSTouch will also pull these "buttons" directly as actions, making interaction with them utilize built in capabilities within HomeSeer.

Can you try just "Up" and "Down" also? You can also try to these with an event action "Send Sage Command" to see if it works there as well. I should have a new version with the official "Channel Up" and "Channel Down" by next week.

Caller ID in the Message Box.
Michael,
Is there a way to get the HSphone variables $CID_NAME and $CID_NUMBER into the message box - so I can have Homeseer's Way2Call send them directly to Sage? Bill |

This is from a VB script using the s_ncid_name NetCallerID variable which contains the caller's name. hs.plugin("InControl_Sage").SendSageMessageByName "HD200", s_ncid_name & " is calling" |

Thanks. I figured it out after you posted your suggestion.
In VBScript with the hsphone variables this did it: cname = hsp.CIDName(1) cnumber = hsp.CIDNumber(1) hs.plugin("InControl_Sage").SendSageMessageByID "All Devices", "You have a call from:" & cname & " " & cnumber Bill |

I'm glad that worked for you Bill. I put in a request to Michael to change the behavior when a message is displayed. I asked if the pause could be indefinite so I can answer the phone and not worry about the TV show starting to play again after a few seconds. Maybe the pause length can be configurable? Hopefully we will see this in a future version.

I added Channel Up and Down to the option list in the new version. Can you give it a try?

1) Channel Up/Down didn't work
2) Deleting buttons does remove the row, but it's not removing the actual button... EDIT: The button disappeared when I restarted HomeSeer, but that shouldn't be necessary... ![]()

Michael,
I seem to have lost the "Temperature" selection in the "Default graphic" dropdown list. Yesterday, I had to restore an image on my server from about two weeks ago. This put me back to InControl 1.3.1. So I updated to 1.3.2 in the HomeSeer updater. I then noticed that the "Temperature" selection was missing. I tried reinstalling the plugin again doing a "Repair" from the HomeSeer updater, but it didn't help. How can I get the "Temperature" selection back in the list? Screenshot attached. |

I've done some more testing.
"Page Up"/"Channel Up" and "Page Down"/"Channel Down" is the same as pressing the FF2 and Rev2 on the remove. They do not send a Channel Up or Channel Down signal as when I use the remote, or pressing the Page Up/Down keys on my keyboard when using the Placeshifter. And is there a list somewhere of all available commands?

Plugin: InControl For SageTV/HomeSeer - Version 1.3.3
1.3.3
New Features:The Sage Commands that InControl support are the ones found in the Sage TV Manual (page 212 - "List of All SageTV Commands"). However, they need to be specified exactly as listed in the attached document.

Version 1.3.3 fixed my problem with the "Temperature" selection in the dropdown list. The "TV" selection is also in the list. Thank you!
