SC,101,288,603,258,255,255,255,3,80,40,0,0,0,255,128,0,TRUE,20,"Lucida Sans Unicode"

2. On a subsequent connect/disconnect cycle the data at the top of WiFiMan.skin doesn't update although it does go blank on disconnect. There are no SETVARs in debug.txt for the subsequent connects.

3. On a subsequent connect/disconnect cycle, ONWIFIMAN_CONNECTED doesn't fire. Upon examining debug.txt it only appears to fire on start-up of there is an active connection.

i don't really understand your 1st Q

2nd try exe attached should fix it

3rd this is correct it only runs on rr start ,

First issue fixed. I split WiFiMan skin into connection and support skins and the profile list worked fine.

2. Will try .exe, if I still have the problem I will let you know.

3. If it only fires at start-up what is the recommended way to know if there is an active connection and/or if the current connection has disconnected?

you can use the indicators

wifiman_connected & wifiman_card_state

or you could use the events cmds

onwifiman_card & onwifiman_net

found in the skin cmds that comes with the plugin.

As to the data that is displayed for a connection, I see in skincommands.txt that the label (variable) names are in the form "wifiman_xxxxx" e.g. "wifiman_signal" and this is what is in the wifiman.skin.

However, when I look at debug.txt, not only do I see variable names in the form "wifixxxxx" e.g., "wifisignal" being updated I also see that only "wifisignal" is updated when I connect after a disconnect.

What am I missing?

El Camino,

I'm sorry but I when look in debug.txt, I am not seeing any of the events fire except ..._Connected on startup and ..._Disconnect on the first disconnect.

Nor am I seeing any of the variables or indicators being set after the initial connect.

But the actual disconnect/connect works just fine.

If you would like, as I am quite familiar with AutoIT, the WiFi UDF, DLLs for RR, and AutoIt use with RR and DLLs, I would be more than happy to take this offline.

Regards,
Jim

pm me, you're email.

I have found a little error into the osk.skin file:

Code:

K03,178,176,059,078,005,064,064,"'@"

change by

Code:

K03,178,176,059,078,005,064,064,"@"

I have an issue that don't understand.

Some time RR don't run well if wifi manager is used !

If i unregister the wifiman.dll file all is ok.

Do you have an idea that happen ?

Thanks

This is my carwings screen when RR bug:

Just tried this out and its working great. Thanks for a nice little app. Very useful.

Request.....

Can you make the plugin look in the skin folder to see if a WifiManIcons folder exists and if so, use it instead of the PI directory folder.

Thanks
