The BlueWatch forum is now sending out notifications correctly(without errors) now!
I've manually activated users accounts for those waiting for notifications.
Hopefully now users will be able to get the BlueWatch(wifi) beta link and post their findings.
Without any input the WiFi version won't get released.

There is a bug in the Bluetooth version if one is using Windows 7
Seems it can't find the x10script file
Not sure why it works in XP and not 7 
Or why the wifi works but not the bluetooth
So if your running 7 don't update unless your not utilizing the X10 events.
I'll dig into this and get it fixed as soon as I can root it out!

Okay I had to rebuild as Murphy played havoc!
What should have been a simple re-add of a resource didn't work!
In any case a new version is now on the server

Many that frequent my forum know I've been working on a multiple device ping option for BlueWatch for some time.
I finally think I'm getting somewhere!
Although this option isn't in BlueWatch just yet it may be just around the corner!
That is if I can get any input.

One point to note about the wifi version.
This can now see any device on your network even if it isn't wifi.
The key to seeing any device that it couldn't before is setting up your routers Mac filtering so the same IP is asigned each time to that device.
You can then set BlueWatch to ping that address, if the device is connected it will be seen!

Hi T,

The key to seeing any device that it couldn't before is setting up your routers Mac filtering so the same IP is asigned each time to that device.

Isn't it really DHCP that needs to be configured to assign the same I.P. to a given MAC?

I guess it depends on the router and how it is worded in the router mine has both.
I can use DHCP to sign an IP to a MAC or I can filter MAC addresses to be allowed or denied access.

I've setup beta test threads for the BlueWatch versions on my forum.
I've kept this open for members to view so users can keep up to date on what is being worked on.
This may also give users ideas for extra uses for these programs.
 

 

[Tuicemen]

I've delayed releasing a new  Bluetooth version as this version is difficult for me to debug.
Even with threads setup for tester to help out, offers to help test has been low to say the least.
I'll soon get to work debugging this but without any sizable tester group, added options will be limited.
As with the other test threads this will be open to users to view.
You'll need to be a member of my forum with a status above nonactive to view the progress.
Unfortunately this may be the last attempt I make at improving this without more user involvement!

New Wifi update is available.
The trial versions remains the same
The Bluetooth version is entering the testing stage
