Sorry Jaynail I have not personally used the zwave controller in my projects so I don’t have much advise to give in relation to zwave.

The example above will spin on cpu, reading as fast as the processor can cycle through the loop.

# to effectively poll at .1 second intervals, try setting:
$port->read_char_time(0);
$port->read_const_time(100);

# and in your while loop, don’t have read do so much work, and only print if you have something to print:
while (1) {
my ($count,$bytes) = $port->read(255);
print “$bytes” if $count > 0;
}
