Hi all,

Just to build on the raised question, is Pronto capable
of bi-directional communication? If I am controlling the
lights my bedroom, can I program Pronto such that it will
popup a message on Pronto to tell me if one of the bulbs
is faulty?

In another case, will Pronto be able to get the light
levels from the bulbs?

You cannot execute ProntoScript while your Pronto is asleep. So the only way to determine the status of the lighting is to check it when it is awake. The simplest [only?] way would be to add a button that checks things only when the button gets pushed.

[This assumes the bi-directional functionality you are after is possible.]
