    Anyone with ScreenLogic want to do me a favor???

    Same here tried the current fix and it did not work? Are you using the XML Link? Are you using the RSS link? Or just opening up the airport in blue and using that link? I was trying to use the Phoenix Gateway airport and not sure if it works?

    So contacted the pool builder to add the intellicenter upgrade kit and valves, and because I purchased them they will not install them.
