Title: Activity Monitor
Post by: jadams77 on October 21, 2009, 05:39:21 PM

My activity monitor only records when my computer is on.  Is that the way it is supposed to work?

Yes!!!  If the computer is off, x10Nets.exe cannot load, so AHP (and the Activity Monitor) cannot run.  If you turn on a light via a Stick-a-switch while the computer is off, the light turns on, but when you boot the computer, AHP shows the light as off.  Plus any timers that turn lights on won't show as on either unless x10Nets.exe is operating.

Thanks for the information.  I have recently 'upgraded' to AHP from Homebase. 

You responded to my post, http://forums.x10.com/index.php?topic=18792.0    in September.  My old system updated the activity monitor without the computer being on which was the reason for my question.

I think I'll put the request in the wish list.

Thanks
