Title: Macro History and Activity Log
Post by: arf1410 on December 22, 2004, 10:56:15 AM
When I manually select the run macro box,
then it flashes several times, like it is
running, but nothing shows up in either the
History Tab or the Activity log, and the
light that is controlled by the macro does
not go on or off as instructed

/1/ is macro execution supposed to be
recorded in History or Activity Log?

/2/ Isn't the "flashing" macro supposed to
be executing?

Stop the software and restart it.  Macros
suddenly work again.  Common problem with
this thing.  Macros halt after a day or
so.  The "panel" shows the macro fire, but
nothing happens...

This stopped working about a week ago.  The
software has stopped and started at least
ten times, with no change...

ARF,
I found that if the I click the RUN MACRO
button, I get various listings in the AM and
sometimes execution of the light.
BUT! If I trigger the macro by either a
motion detector or rf remote, the light
works everytime.

Make sure that you have all items checked in
the AM View pulldown.

My Macro:
MS    =  M3-M4
Light =  L7
MS turns on L7 for 15s then turns it off.
Simple.

<macro name="MBR Night Light" code="M3"
trigger="1" id="4000002" moduleid="2000043"
ts="127480222334375000" download="1" >
<el cmd="7" area="1" target="2000009"
level="100" />
<el cmd="8" area="1" target="-1"
delay="15" />
<el cmd="7" area="1" target="2000009"
level="0" />
<el cmd="7" area="1" target="2000009"
level="0" />
</macro>

Looks like some work still needs to be done
here!

Merry Christmas

Thanks Billy - I will double check the AM
view options, but those aside, shouldn'y
the "history" tab in the macro box reflect
the manual softawre macro activation?
