Hi Joe,

Which version of HALultra are you using? There is a new build coming this week with an update to how we retrieve data from the Nest cloud server which will be more efficient. There is also a fix for our Celsius customers...

You should see a screens like the following in Device Wizard:

Hi Tim

I'm using the latest public HALUltra build 6.0.39. Nest does not appear as an available manufacturer in the device wizard. Goes from 'Honeywell' to 'OnQ Technologies' on my list (no NEST alphabetically in between). The only place I found NEST was in the 'Settings/HVAC' screen (which allowed me to authorize/link (Home Automatic Living shows up in the 'works with' screen of the NEST app once linked) but cannot actually add the thermostat as a device because of the above. If there's a later beta, I'd be happy to install and play with.

Best regards, Joe

Hi Joe,

You can always go here to see what the latest version of HAL is... In the new build coming this week, 6.1.3 the system will notify you of updates available.

I will email you the link for the latest HALultra build

Tim, will we be able to download/update within HAL now, or do we still need to request a download link?
