I think it's just the url -- you have an extra forward slash in 
there, and you perhaps need a question mark:

   put "http://192.168.181.4/FMPro?" into theURL

You might need to check which port the Web Companion is using. If 
it's not 80, you'll need to include it in the url.

You can also get xml formatted data from FM Pro with the Web 
Companion. There's a lot of information on this page:
