If I'm not completely wrong, I think I have seen this too and it was because SK server was not correctly started.
Try to restart all SK services and then try the plugin in EG again

Try the new version 0.0.8.
It should give a better hint on whats wrong but
krambriw is probably right

Hi!
I experienced something similar when I try to start the Event Ghost with this pluguin.
As you can see in the screenshot below, I also get a lot of error messages. I have several times tried to restart the Switch King services and then restarted the Event Ghost, but without result.
Some info about my system:
Does anyone have any other suggestions on what this could be?

For me to be 100% sure I uninstalled Switcking from Event Ghost, closed Eventgost and deleted the Switshking folder from plugins-folder.
After that I downloaded 0.0.8 and above installed that in Eventghost.
But I still get this error message:
Pls help me... What am I missing?
Is there any other file that I should delete that is laying around in the system from the old 0.0.7 that is messing things up?

Many thanks for the quick response!
I have installed the v0.0.9 and now it seams to receive information from my temp sensors in Switch King, but I still get some error messages:
Does you have any solution on that as well?

Okey, try V0.1.0
The REST API is not consequent at the time being so it's a bit hard to extract the information. If you enable ONLY "Debug mode" the ID numbers should come in sequence and not skip any number.

I really appreciate your efforts in trying to get this to work! Awesome nice!
Unfortunately I must announce that I still get lots of errormessages even with v0.1.0
If I understood you correctly, it was JUST debug you wished to be check?
