Re: [ECS] ECS with Home Base?

Stuart (and Mark),

Are you defiging Home Base as interface-2g?  I am at the guys house right
now and trying to get him setup so he can see what ECS can do.  When i try
and send a command I get an error.

ERROR:PLC-Interface-2G not responding on COM1

Interestingly if we turn the lights I have set up (in ECS) on or off with a
controller ECS "sees" the state change.  When I set up the Home Base item I
have no trouble and can also "reset" it, so it wouldn't seem to be a reall
communication problem.

his existing Home Base scheudle is running, but is sounds like that is what
you have as well.
