Script Date Contributor Description
rf_locker.zip 1/4/01 John Martin The RF Locker scripts are designed to provide security for your RF remotes. Allows you to "lock" your remotes so you must enter a secret code sequence before they can be used.
weatherfore.txt 12/29/00 Jeff Farmer This script for HomeSeer goes out to NOAA weather site and gets the weather forecast. It outputs to weather.html and places a link to the file in a device. The link will open a small popup window to display weather.html.
MotionDetectors.txt 8/26/00 Brian E. Nash The complete description is in the script file. This is a really neat motion detector script.
shoppinglist.zip 8/20/00 Thomas Caldwell

Maintain a shopping list using VR. Two scripts in the zip, one is for installing.
Update 8/20, HomeSeer can now read the shopping list back to you.

TvListings.txt 7/12/00 Thomas Caldwell Updated TvListing script. Use VR/IR to retrieve and speak tv program listings and program details. Or to change channels and record programs. IR not fully tested. Updated to support the day of the week. Such as "What's on channel 244 at 9pm on Saturday?" Must be using HomeSeer 1.4.5 or better.
TVDownload.txt 6/28/00 Thomas Caldwell This script downloads a weeks worth of local tv listings and saves them to a file. It is used by the TvListing script.
get_weather.txt 4/28/00 Jay Smith Simplified Weather script for agent. select your local area. I trigger with a palm remote.
weather.zip 4/21/00 Rick LaBanca Weather script, needs HomeSeer 1.4 or better. Won't work with older versions, changes needed if you have the old scripts, read scripts for info.

Current conditions: Upon being triggered, will read you the current weather conditions for a city. Must modify the script to your city.

Forecast: Upon being triggered, will read you the the weather forecast for a zone. Must modify the script to pick up the right zone, see the directions in the script.

dual_motion.txt 3/30/00 Jeff "CFGuy" Farmer Let two motion detectors to control one light. Either motion detector can turn the light on but both motion detectors have to send off before the light will go off. This was designed for rooms that are either shaped wrong or are too big for one motion detector to cover the whole room. There is also a way to lock the light on.
callerid.zip 3/30/00 Rick LaBanca

Simple HomeSeer caller ID. You will need to know your modem's caller id enable command. HomeSeer 1.4 or better. Won't work with older versions. New setup changes needed if you ran an older version.

Supports name reading, or lookup from a table. Can run an event when particular number is seen.

ut.zip 2/29/00 Rick LaBanca HomeSeer utility function/subs. These are used in other scripts but all together here if you want them separate. Currently has:

readLine: Read cr/lf delimited lines from a string
getParms: Fake out HS to pass parameters to your scripts!
readDict: Read name=value pairs from a file.

Light_Control2_Quiet.txt 2/1/00 Paul Fielding

Based on the script by Glenn Reimche, this one is configured for more flexible voice commands, and also allows for setting of absolute dim values in addition to relative Dim. Requires ut.zip.

acknowledge.txt 1/24/00 Glenn Reimche

Lets HomeSeer speak random acknowledgements to voice commands. Lets you add a little variety if you like having your computer talk to you.
Easy to add / remove phrases, also will optionally and randomly add your name to the acknowledgment.

Light_Control.txt 1/24/00 Glenn Reimche One script to handle voice command of ON/OFF and DIM/BRIGHT (including percentage values) of a light.
Through parameter passing, this script may be used for any light without editing. Also an example of using optional words and groups in a voice command, as yet undocumented.
You need ut.zip and, optionally, acknowledge.txt
On_Off_toggle.txt 1/19/00 Glenn Reimche Script uses Rick LaBanca's email parameter passing technique (dowload ut.zip as well), meaning one script can handle all devices generically. No need to write a separate script for each device. This could be modified for any action(s)you might want to perform on multiple devices.
news_retrieval.txt 12/26/99 Steve C.

This is a news retrieval script that downloads news stories off the internet and reads them back to you. The script asks you to choose between eight different types of news: Top Stories, World, Business, Sports, Technology, Science, Health, and Politics. Eight types of news all in one handy script!

attention.txt 11/06/99 Rick LaBanca

This does two things for speech recognition.

First, it changes the way attention works. You get its attention, and do as many commands as you like until you put it to sleep (i.e. "wake up" "turn outside on" "turn lamp on" "good-bye").

Second, the script will change to a user based on the attention phrase (i.e. "this is Rick" "hello Rick" will have set the user to Rick for subsequent commands). See script for details. Helpful for male vs. female users.

** Note that this won't work unless named as directed in the script's instructions **

blackice.txt 11/06/99 Rick LaBanca If you own BlackIce this script will trigger any event if someone attack your computer. BlackIce is a firewall like component to protect you from hackers, recommended!
