I hope it helps....sorry about the delay or if I have already sent you this code.

You can purchase a reflective type sensor from Diane at BYO, or you can order them direct from Automation Direct, Fri, 31 Jul 2009 21:27:58 GMT Christopher J Abissi http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/m1oasys/message/188 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/m1oasys/message/188 Bob, Well at least I don't need to buy another sensor. Thanks for explaining. Chris A.

How does it work and where can it be found online?

I would estimate that it took about 8 hours.

I appreciate the comments and I agree we need to update the doc, a new version is in the works and we will take Wed, 29 Jul 2009 21:39:30 GMT Bob Gillard http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/m1oasys/message/180 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/m1oasys/message/180 Fellow RoRos: After much work, I have been able to successfully install, configure and write vbasic code for the M1OASYS.

An executable program can be written that will connect with the M1 via Winsock to the unsecured port on the Fri, 17 Jul 2009 22:33:38 GMT jfakatselis http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/m1oasys/message/177 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/m1oasys/message/177 Does anyone know if there is any way to create a temperature log by polling the temperature periodically and writing it to a file on the hard drive?
