[QUOTE="Eric Eskam, post: 96366, member: 2124"] Re: X32 Permissions Not at all. It's simple, really - the X32 can only be "seen" by the computer running the control software. Either the computer and X32 are on one network, and then the computer is on a completely separate network with the wifi for the other devices, or the computer and X32 are linked over USB and then the computer is on the network with the wifi devices. If the computer with the control software is the only thing that can "see" the X32, then the X32 firmware does not need to change one bit from how it is today. The control software/computer becomes a proxy for all communications to the X32, and acting as a gatekeeper full control as granular as you want can be maintained. I'm not saying it wouldn't be ambitious - especially for a third party - but I think it would be a heck of a lot faster to do something as involved as permissions on a computer rather than fiddling with firmware on a device that with each firmware update you can brick the device if you are not VERY careful. TL;DR version - doing on the PC would be much faster without fear of breaking stuff as easily :) [/QUOTE]
