Hi Steve, The attached patch might do the job for you -- or at least give you an idea of what you need to do... :) You can take a look at the patch file, it shows the differences between the original xt5250 script, and what I did to it... Or, just go to the directory with the copy of xt5250 that you want to apply the patch to, and type: patch < xt3477FC.patch and it should update xt5250 with my changes. Hope that helps...
