I suddenly realised I hadn't replied to your suggestions/questions

Agreed - I will add that in.
whmoorejr wrote: ? detection interval (also under "Configure Camera" ). Is this how long the device holds the state "triggered"? If that means something else, could you please explain it and then add a "Alarm time" for the duration that the Foscam HD Device holds the "triggered" state..
Yes - that's it. The Foscam HD cameras will only allow a maximum of 15 seconds AFAIK. This overrides the camera setting and allows you to specify a longer time interval for the Indigo camera device to remain in a triggered state. What exactly do you mean by Alarm Time - do you mean actual time of alarm e.g. 14:30:15?
whmoorejr wrote:Consider adding "Latch Time" .... the amount of time after the alarm time before the device will trigger another alarm.
That should be easy to add in as well.
whmoorejr wrote:Polling question.... the Motion detected signal from the camera, is that pushed out to the created indigo device via your plugin or is the plugin pulling that? (If I set Poll camera to 60 seconds and waive my hand in-front of the camera during that time = no motion detected)?
The Foscam HD camera doesn't push out messages AFAIK and so I have to poll it to see if there is a change of state. So yes you are correct, if you set the poling to 60 seconds, then it will take up to a minute for my plugin to pick up there has been motion detected. I set my polling times to 5 seconds.
I wondering if you have had a chance to test out the beta version - the other user has reported success with his newer camera - I was wondering if your C1/ C2 works?
Also, I haven't documented it but if you run an FTP server on your Mac, it is possible to get the camera to upload images to the Mac via FTP (i.e. the reverse of what is currently being done). The Dynamic View should then work on the uploaded files on the Mac. I haven't done any detailed testing on this but it should work.
