Just released another version. Officially released v1.0.0 (too long in the works). Check out the original post for the updated information about what's new.

Good. I figured it was time I actually updated some of my apps to have all the features in them. :) This one will be slower than the Android one though but shouldn't be a problem.

Awesome Job! Best one yet!

I think it exposed something in my Wifi module that I don't like.

It pops up every couple hours with a notification with Error 11 Bad URL. On the last version it would just kick back saying it couldn't connect and after a try or two it would work.

Last night I updated the firmware on my wifly and it seems to have made it much much better but I still get that error from time to time. Is there a way to turn that notification off or is something else going on that I need to address?

right now it is manually updated...so you have to refresh yourself. i can look into doing the auto refresh feature but it would only be while the app was open. otherwise i would have to create a service and then log to a database and such (just like i do with the android app).

no, there is no way to turn off the notifications from being displayed. however i can work on adding that in if you would like. something like disable alerts or popup notifications. just let me know what you think and would like.

This sounds like an error message on the Android Status App and not the Java Desktop Status App (sorry for any confusion).

For the Android App, if you are getting those errors and a retry will correct it, I would suggest going to the Settings and then down to Notifications. There is the Error Retries section. I would suggest changing that from 2 to 5 (or something above 2) OR change the Error Retry Interval from 15 seconds to 30 seconds. This way you can hopefully avoid those unfortunate mishaps.

I've got that fixed and updated. I'm actually going to package it up like the MenuGenerator app so you can actually install it. I'm almost ready to do another update/release for it. I have a couple more things I would like to add (ok, well one more). I'd like to have the auto refresh ability in the app. Although I may just push out this update and then work on the auto refresh and update it again...not sure. Oh and I'm thinking of adding in a notification for software updates to the app as well, so you can check for updates from the app without having to search. :geek:

Just released the update. Did not create a mac package for it (I forgot how I did it) but I can if needed. Let me know how it works for you.

is it possible in the coming update to add an option to the application to be able to save custom memory location to the list of memory locations already available. It would be great to be able to save the memory location number, its type int or byte and its name.

I hadn't thought about that for this application. I suppose it could be possible. I will have to look into it.

Is there any other application that has this option we could use?

I just meant that I was working on this functionality for the Android Status App and never considered doing this for the Java Status App. I don't know of any other app that you could save the custom memory locations for quick reference. Let me start working on this functionality for you and see what I can come up with.

That's an interesting question. I'm not sure if it would work. I can look into it though....I have an iPad and iPad Mini.

I tried to use DropBox to get it onto the ipad, but I couldn't get it to work. I like the status app for reading and writing to memory. I used the Dropbox method to load a handful of different html pages for different parameters (lights, flow rates, etc) from this example Roberto made.http://forum.reefangel.com/viewtopic.ph ... phs#p11688

It's a cool way to check things by various categories without loading all the graphs on one chart.

I just did a search and there's not really an easy way to do it. I did find something if you have a jailbroken device, you can install Java and you should be able to run Java apps. There's also something for running java from websites that's a paid app on iTunes.

I think I know what the problem is. It has to do with the app failing on parsing the XML tags being returned. I will have to fix it.

I just uploaded the latest, 1.1.1 to my ftp site. I edited the OP to have the correct download link. Give it a try and see if this fixes your problem.
