I have a MX-5000 that sends a ASCII string via IP to Home Assistant and Home Assistant responds with a ascii string. If I have the IP command open and click on Test I can see the expected string in results. In the IP Command window I have "Save the result" checked, and the proper variable (string type) selected.

The only problem is the variable is never assigned. For the button I can have
VariableA = test1
IP returns gooddata1 which is supposed to be assigned to VariableA
VariableA is still test1, not gooddata1.

The data coming back to the IP command has been tried with
gooddata1
and gooddata1\r\n (CCP shows this as gooddata1\x0D\x0A)

Neither work.

Ideas?

Does this even work? I've tried Home Assistant and Kodi. IP test works fine, but the remote refuses to actually put the return into the variable. I'm using a string variable FWIW.

Does anyone have CCP actually getting data back from a IP device?
