Hi James,

Firstly, let me thank you so much once again 

Your exemple is exactly what I'm looking for, especially your second post wich is very intuitive to code ! Perfect !
In fact I dont yet decide where to place the "logical" but depending what will be more fast it could finally be done in the python script.

I got a problem to import your xml file... Very strange. I tried copy past an other xml file from the dedicated exchange board and it work.
I tried both version of vox (1 and alpha 1) and the result is the same. I then copy paste the code to notepad++ and tried all the encodage possibility... same same (yes I learn english in Thailland sorry)...

this is the error windows open me :

Code: [Select]

I tried to figure out what's wrong myself but I have to disturb you a bit more...
I hope it's just a debug on your computer to de-activate or a "&" encodage matter which dont take you too much time 

Thank in advance, sincerly, André.

Hi,

Ok no problems, I'm learning fast finaly... even if exception is a new concept for me 
I will need the wox xml part especialy. The arduino part looks to be easy and I become more confident on python and reading/writing should be good soon.
But I have no idea yet about the vox side...

So I can wait but a whole process commented by you will be priceless for me and a great time saver.

Btw about price you really should price your soft at less twice more !
I dont know if it's a conversion trick between $CA and € but I was surprise about your price : 25 euros !! it's just a meal and wine lol
I mean it was a good news of course, but it wont hurt anyone to paid the double  especially for a soft of this quality ! And you let people fully try the soft, can't be best...

I'm freelance too so I know the benefit of a small price and seriously 50€ / 80 CA$ keep this same benefits...

Anyway thank's to you, have a good day, andre.

Hi James,

I finally take my finger in Python, and my remembers was right... I hate this kind of language It's very strict ! I'm probably not compatible 

And the need to asking you was not too long... And your fear is going to happen 
Yes I'm going to ask you about retrieving data, the other way, the final return, with TTS.speech to conclude...

Could you please (not in the next hour, take your time please, listen some jazz)  add a reading status code in the wiki example page?

I mean retrieve a value (analog would be best but i'm not sure if it's possible at this time...) I'm swimming yet, especially about the Vox commando XML part, the python part, and probably the arduino part. I dont see other parts...

So with this I will be able to work very long long time, and leave you alone.

I'm sure it will help lot of people, thanks a lot.

Sincerly, André.

Wow

It's a bit more then a starting point, there is a video  lol

Very glad to asking you... I had some hesitations, I would miss something ! What a support !

I will study this in details, but for sure you gain a new customer ! And a fan in bonus !

Thanks very much, for your best support and your fast reply )

Good morning James,

I am working on some examples for this right now.  I will start with just setting some pins high or low, but you can do much more of course.

Wow you are like a father for me...

Ok to be very honnest I was sure it was not so simple as I describ of course... But I tried lol

I'm webmaster and worked on linux for more then ten years... and I hate Python but I will re-learn it ! You convince me that a plugin is not a real solution. And you really well understood what I would like to do with my arduino and Vox. The query option is a critical part of my project but the result mixing this both technology could be very powerfull !

So I really would love to have a starting point as you said making pin LOW / HIGH etc... Will it be on the PY plugin wiki page ?

Thank you very much, sincerly yours, André.

Hi,

I would love to use vox for my home automation but every thing is wired to work with an arduino (

A simple plugin to read/write digital and analog pin from/to an arduino board (via serial communication by example) would be so nice !

I dream to ask vox what is the temperature outside ? is it raining ? adding to my robot a knock sensor to wake up vox (from red to yellow) lol
Turn on light (and depending on which presence sensor is detecting me, it light up only the closest light by relay) so one command work for all lights...

Or best of all, based on presence sensor, activate the closest micro only ;o) and be able to extand vox to any room ...

It look like a huge work but it can be done with 4 new actions ? Write analog, read analog and two more for digital ? Then the logical (if, then, etc..) can be handle by vox to command most arduino functions.

Please, without commanding you of course, take a serious consideration on it ))))

Thank's to read, André.

Ps: I almost forgot to say that your software is the most impressive for me since I discover netscape :p in 1998
