Title: AHP/CM15A
Post by: Kramer Chins on February 02, 2009, 05:50:43 AM
Do you have to leave AHP open (running) on your PC in order for everything to work? I have been leaving mine "minimized" in the system tray, do I have to do this or can I just "X" it out? I still leave my CM15A hooked up also.......

Thanks !!!

You don't need to keep AHP running unless you have macros that run from the PC, not uploaded to the CM15A.

Also, if you are using one of the plug-ins, like OnAlert, you will need to have the PC running.

Oh and bump!

How does AHP fair when the pc goes into sleep mode?

It depends on what you want (expect) AHP to do!
Things that don't require the PC work fine! Myhouse is one that many have had problems with (not just when the PC is in sleep mode) ::) :'

Actually AHP doesn't need to be running with the On Alert plug-in! Unless you have it triggering windows comands from macros!
My security macros that turn on lights work with AHP not running, ones that trigger sounds(batchfiles) don't!

Thanks for the correction.
