Re: Is Connected

I'm relatively new to EG so please forgive me if this is obvious to most folks.
I'm trying to use Is Connected to check to see if my IP cameras go offline. I Add Device FYcam @ IP ... with an interval of 60 and a Timeout of 0.25. I Start Monitoring FYcam. When I execute the above, the log shows "Is Connected: Add Device: Client Name: FYcam IP: ... " and "Is Connected: Monitoring Started: Name: FYcam ..." and then immediately followed by an IsConnected.FYcam.Disconnected event. (This is not the case. The IP camera is displaying just fine in another window.)
I'd expect it to have an IsConnected.FYcam.Connected or IsConnected.FYcam.Disconnected event every minute following but nothing happens at all.
Suggestions?

Hi,

you probably need to use the "Ping" plugin instead, I believe the plugin "IsConnected" is still in WIP and not everything works fine.
