[Hai-users] HAI PC Access User Settings

I have been kinda banging my head against the wall trying to have my 
OmniPro2 automatically display a temp on my 2-line keypad automatically.

I have no trouble to "show" a message on input or schedule, like 
"Garbage Night" every wed night. but I can't find a way to inject a 
temperature sensor  value  into the "message" field so I can display 
the temp automatically on the display.

"Freezer is 25F" etc, with the value being from the actual temp sensor.

I have gotten used to just pressing the correct keys to navigate the 
temp sensor, and hitting # # to get display. But I really want to use 
the display to cycle through things like outdoor temp/hot tub 
temp/humidity/storage freezer temp  etc...

Has anyone done that? I'm hoping I'm just missing a programming tool 
or "variable" or something. I was hoping those "user settings" were 
my solution to this task, but not so.

Something tells me this would  be easy with the touchscreen pads... 
heh heh, but thats a different animal $$ wise.

I do use HomeSeer interface and have some Iphone screens built so I 
can see these temperatures, so I know I could bolt an Ipad to the 
wall and use HomeSeer to make a custom interface. But I was hoping I 
could accomplish this little temperature display task with existing equipment.

Thanks,
John.
