ISY994

Seems the below code works great with regards to the "THEN" condition however what I am hoping to do is run the "ELSE" program . $Accent_Lighting is only = to 1 between Sunset and 11pm, then at 11pm the value changes to 0 so my understanding is then the ELSE statement should run yet it does not?? What am I missing???? If $Accent_Lighting is 1 Then Set 'Front Door Hall Light Frt' On Set 'Bedroom Hallway Upr' On Set 'Family Room Staircase Light L' On Wait 1 minute Set 'Bedroom Hallway Upr' Off Wait 2 minutes Set 'Front Door Hall Light Frt' Off Set 'Family Room Staircase Light L' Off Else …

I have two different notifications actions set up in the same program. They both go to the same email account. One works and the other doesn't: The notification called 'Light Change Notice' works: ${alert.subject} This one (Schedule Change Notice) doesn't: ISY99 Changed to ${sys.program.#.name} Operation at ${sys.time12} ${sys.date} The program is trivial: If From Sunrise To Sunset (same day) Then $State_Schedule = 1 Send Notification to 'MyGmail' content 'Light Change Notice' Send Notification to 'MyGmail' content 'Schedule Change Notice' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') The Err…

I thought I should put this info in a separate thread so as to not confuse people with other issues. After upgrading from 3.2.6 to 3.3.4 a couple weeks ago, I started getting a couple lights doing strange things such as not coming on at the level of brightness that seems to be programmed in the scene, and a 3-way light not working properly. When going back to 3.2.6, everything began to work normally again. LeeG, you gave me a BIG clue when you mentioned this in another thread... "There was a problem some releases back with the file system that could have compromised some of the Insteon configuration data. It could go unnoticed until a device was restored. I notic…

I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue and I ran across these errors in my log. The IP address' the ISY is using are not listed anywhere in my ISY setup. When I look to see what devices they are it's even more strange: 10.0.0.121 and ..120 - DirectTV Receiver 10.0.0.10 is the macbook I'm running (I'm guessing it's the admin console) Any idea why the ISY is flooding my network with requests to my DirecTV boxes?

I want to trigger Blue Iris (BI) to take a snapshot on a foscam camera. I can trigger the foscam directly using a web resoure, but blue iris is much faster and speed is critical to me. Not only that but I end up with more flexibility if I get the images and recordings in BI along with everything else that its doing. So I really want to control BI. I have set up a batch file (snapshotcam1) which when executed from the dos/win command line immediately causes BI to take the snapshot and place it in BI's repository. I have also created a jscript which I have placed in the BI webserver, which, when I enter directly into the browser causes the "onload" function to immedia…

I have a ISY program set to turn on all my (insteon) lights including the ones assigned to the main dimmer on each of my two 8 button keypads. I have assigned the "All On" scene to the "B-scene" slot on each of the keypads. When i turn on the scene using the html interface, all of lights function as programmed; when I turn them on using the keypad, all the lights except for the ones assigned to the same keypad i'm using turn on. This happens on both keypads. If I manually turn on the individual light using the keypad while the B-scene is on and then turn it off using the B-scene button, all lights turn off including the ones assigned on the keypad i'm using. Any ideas w…

I began using an iOS program called "Roomie Remote". This universal remote application supports the ISY-99. In addition to toggling lights and devices, it's supposedly possible to run programs, provided you know the program's "number". Is there an easy way to expose the ID number associated with any ISY program?

Good Morning All! I feel like this should be a simple question, but I can't figure out one little rule I want to add to my program. I would like to have a couple lights to turn on when I have the garage door open between sunset and sunrise. (I have a I/O linc installed). What I can't figure out is how I can program that "if" the Garage Door is already up/unsecure, I don't want anything to happen. Any suggestions? Thanks, Ed

Hi guys, I've been researching home automation for a while and recently zeroed-in on Insteon. I noticed that the ISY994i has a number of modules that users must purchase. I could not find a repository of the available modules and their respective prices. Can someone point me in the right direction..? Thanks.

I am trying to set up my ISY for port forwarding. Is there a particular port or range of ports I must use? I am pretty sure my Linksys Router requires ports between 0 and ~65412. I am able to access my ISY over the internet remotely as long as my home computer is turned on and logged into the ISY program. But when I turn the computer off, I cannot access it over the net. I think I can set the port forwarding up having watched some tutorials....just want to make sure I have the right port. Thanks! Phil

Using ISY 99 with 2.8.16 firmware, a Keypadlinc Relay dual band device I added came up in the Admin Console as an unsupported device. Probably not surprising if the Keypadlinc came out after the ISY firmware was released. The device responds to basic on / off commands, but does not respond to scene commands. Is this device supported in the current beta firmware?

I have the MorningLinc controller which has been working fine up until the past few weeks. I can't communicate with the device. I've tried power cycling the ISY and the modem. I've tried deleting the MorningLinc and relinking it. I've even tried replacing the MorningLinc with a brand new spare and I still get the "Cannot communicate with the device" error when trying to link (ending in the red exclaimation). This is Rev 1.2. It's all very weird since it's worked perfectly up till now. Any ideas?

(The title for this post has been edited to reference a "3 Way" Switch from it's original title of "2 Way" Switch for easier searching in the forum. Still referred to as 2 Way Switch in the discussion below. So for all programming purposes in this article "2 Way" = "3 Way." Sorry for the confusion.) Hi, I've been playing with home automation for a long time, but am newer to Insteon and new to the ISY 99i. So far, Insteon has turned out to be really reliable, and very functional...the ISY only making things better. That being said, after all the reading that I've done on the boards and the wiki have left me with a problem I can't solve yet... I've got tw…

Lost communication with this device (2 wire dimmer) so I removed it from the system, and now I can't add it back to the ISY. Error says "Can not determine Insteon Engine". Any thoughts?

I've tried linking this using Wiki method and New Insteon Device. Both times I only get one node. What is the correct method to link it?

I have a basic Christmas Light program. Last night the lights did not turn off at 10:30 as supposed to. The program is written so that to turn off if I question the status. I have had no "QUERY" in any of the programs. I wrote the following as a backup. Will this take care of my issue? If Time is 11:00:00PM Then Set 'Gate Outlet' Query Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') All I need is to have the 'Gate Outlet' checked and if not off, it will trigger the entire "SCENE" off? Thanks, Tim

I took advantage of the ISY99i Pro to ISY994i Pro upgrade offer today. If I do a backup, change out the box and then restore, are all the settings also restored? Like EMail settings, NTP settings, location etc. How about http IP and https IP address settings? Is this something I need to set aside some time to do or will it be a quick and simple process? (I know, it's never that easy ).

How do I insert a screen image from my ISY into the forum? For example I want to insert the program summary page.

Is there a way to have a single 6 button keylinc button blink? I'm getting weird results, the first time I ran it, it turned the Keylinc SW to on, the second (and on) it blinks ALL the keylinc buttons that are on (so A,C, OFF). 'D' is not assigned to anything. Main Prog If Status 'Security / TriggerLinc-Opened' is not Off Then Run Program 'Blink' (Then Path) Else Stop program 'Blink' Set 'Kitchen KeyLinc - D' 50% (Backlight Level) Blink If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Set 'Kitchen KeyLinc - D' 100% (Backlight Level) Wait 5 seconds Run Program 'Blink' (Else Pa…

I set up a simple program with a custom notification (see below). Oddly, when I take out the line "Wait 20 seconds" the notification gets sent when the "If" clause is true, but with the "Wait" line it does NOT send the notification. I can confirm 100% that the program runs otherwise because the AC unit is turning Off and I can see the tempurature fluctuating throughout the night on a Netbotz temp log. (I have another program that turns the 'AC' module On.) Last night it toggled on and off on 30-40 min intervals at least 6 time which means 12 notifications... but I got none. The reason I added the Wait clause is b/c the status was not reading correctly... I assume…

I am on a Staycation this week, so I'm looking to improve my Insteon system. I used to have an X10 system, and used the All Lights On, and was looking to do something similar on my 8 buton KPLs (I have 1 button "reserved" for this on all of them). I have a house with 12 lights, 4 ceiling fans, and a 4 controllers. I am also a "classically-trained" programmer, which may be what is getting in my way . ------------- First, I'm trying to set the system to remember its state when the Emergency-All button is hit. I was thinking of using a variable "HouseState", and doing binary arithmetic ("If Kitchen Sink is ON then $HouseState |= 8", etc. for all 12 lights.) …

Hi all, I am trying to send me an email with the actual temperature that my venkstar thermostat measures. This wiki link shows me how to get humidity and set points, but not the temperature: http://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/ ... _Variables Is it possible to retrieve that information and use that in an email as well ? Thanks Stephan

So my current projects is as followed 6 scene keypad connects to a fanlinc On-turns on Fan Fan High-Speed Control Fan Med-Speed Control Fan Low-Speed Control Fan Off-Off Off-Shut Off So the problem that I can't figure out is if I press the button fan high, then press fan medium, the speed switches correctly however the Fan High light on the keypad remains on. The second problem is that I cant directly change the fan speeds using mobilinc. I see an option for grouping but I don't understand this option very well and the ISY gives me multiple warnings.

What are the hardware specs for the isy994i pro?

I can't figure out how to get Isy (3.3.4) to link a device to a remotelinc's all on/off buttons without adding it to one of the normal scene buttons. Am I missing something, or does Isy just not support this? I could definitely do this before I started using Isy if I linked the devices manually. Also, Isy seems to list options to enable/disable the beep and led for remotelinc 2 but not for remotelinc 1. Again, am I missing something or is this unsupported? Thanks!
