Thanks very much Jim.

That's exactly what I was looking for.

I use this for my garage door, using the IO linc.  
  
This method will monitor the I/O linc, not the KeypadLinc.  Yor probably
just need the my $state = said $garage_door code snipet.

insteon.mht:
INSTEON_SWITCHLINC,      17.77.D2:01,  garage_door                    #,
iolincs,  PLM,0007 # v1.1 iolinc


User code:

$g_GarageState = new Generic_Item;

$v_garage = new Voice_Cmd("[open,shut] the garage door"); if (my $state =
said $v_garage) {
  if ($state eq $g_GarageState->state( ) ) {
    speak "the garage door is already $state";
  }
  else {
    set_with_timer $garage_door ON, 60, OFF;
  }
}


if (my $state = said $garage_door) {
  print_log "garage_door state: $state";
  if ($state =~ /off/) {
    if ($g_GarageState->state( ) eq 'open') {
      speak (text=> "notice: the garage door just closed");
    }
    $g_GarageState->set('shut');
  }
  elsif ($state =~ /on/) {
    if ($g_GarageState->state( ) eq 'shut') {
      speak (text=> "notice: the garage door just opened");
    }
    $g_GarageState->set('open');
  }
}

Regards,

Jim
