Is there a way to turn the “Echo Raw Log to File” on and off programmatically in the Insteon Explorer? I would like to copy the file then reinitialize it to control its size.

BUMP...
It’s been awhile. The problem I have is the “Echo Raw Log to File” intermittently stops and the checked box is unchecked. I was hoping there was a way though SQL or another to start the log with a command.

Pete -
This may not be the fastest response to one of your
postings, BUT I'm with ya' here, bud!
I just discovered the need to do the same thing myself.
Since no one has responded in 4-5 years, I'm thinkin' that
maybe this isn't possible. 
Whatdaya think?

Took awhile to figure it out but give this a try.
Code:
| ph_sendkeysmq(ph_findwindowex(ph_findwindowex(ph_findwindowe x(ph_handle(),0,0,"MDIClient",0),0,0,"Insteon Explorer",1),0,0,"Echo Raw Log to File",1)," ") |
|
|
Of course, Insteon Explorer has to already be open.
Dave.
*Edit - Of course the board messed up the code a little. There is an extra space in the 3rd ph_findwindowex function that needs to be removed.

You are soooo smart it is scary!
OK. If that works, how do you do then turn OFF the Raw
capture.
Using a "0" for the last argument in the Echo... string?

Nope, same command turns it off. It's like a toggle

Dave -
Put that in a macro, but it won't work. If I make a
single line macro, for simplicity in testing, and put the
sendkey formula in that line. It works if I "Verify"
test the line, but if I "Play" the macro nothing happens.
I tried Playing with a right-click on the open macro
window in Insteon Explorer, as well as trying to "Run"
the test macro from the Macro/Formula field in the top
tool bar pane.
I'm guessing that the findwindow attempt needs to account
for something a little different (which is probably what
you were indicating in your "explorer window open"
comment.
Can this be made to run from a macro? What I'm trying to
do is automate the Discovery of new Insteon devices added
to my system. I've found that PH seems to work more
reliably if I get the Types setup correct and there are
so many new devices now that are different from the
predefined Types Table database.

Ken,
Ive played and played with this and I cant get it to run
from a macro either. The whole act of posting a system
message to itself from within a process running from the
execution queue doesnt seem to work. No matter what I
tried, I could not get it to run from a macro/formula.
Probably the best thing to do is provide a way to
programatically modify this value without having to
resort to faking a keypress via a system message.
Dave.

Perhaps expanding the scope of the "ph_insteonctrl()"
function would be a natural place to put it.
