Sure, its pretty simple
set temp to ((do shell script “defaults read /Library/Preferences/Jarvis homeChad”) as number) as boolean
if temp is false then
try
do shell script (“ping -c2 X.X.X.X”)
[ enter code here to sign yourself in ]
end try
end if
Invest into Jarvian mostly. In my opinion, i’m not put here on the planet to get rich and buy things for myself, but rather contribute to the planet is the most meaningful way I can. Money would help me to do so.
I have done a few interviews on the internet, would be open to exploring doing more if called upon. :)
I don’t. That issue causes a delay to Jarvis’s detection of my presence, which is why I didn’t use my iphone originally. I used RFID tags. More reliable, you just have to remember to scan in and out. The new iPhone detection thing is secondary, a backup.
Not sure what I can do to help windows users. I can answer your questions, but I certainly can’t start coding for individual people.
I still use the RFID door scanner, I will prob post the code for it at some point. The reason why I am using a USB cable instead of xbee is cheaper, simpler, don’t want to use any kind of battery, and the mac mini is close enough to the door for a USB cable. I am using a basic arduino.
i give my iPhone and my girlfriend’s iPhone a static IP address, and have Jarvis ping the IP every few mintues.
