Paul_S, could you be a bit more civil to jsmthrowaway so as to elicit what he does know and how he knows it?

jsmthrowaway can you give more information about your setup and what the devices do?

No need for a heated argument. This whole thread is quite instructive!

Why was this downvoted?

(No I'm not complaining about being downvoted - this isn't even my comment - just trying to learn.

Based on my frequent lurking, I would guess it was due to the personal (and off topic) nature of the comment. Addressing users specifically in this way seems to be looked down upon here.

not really. people aren't allowed to be rude and uncivil with each other here, as it shuts down constructive discussion. this is in the guidelines.
