Fibaro makes a z-wave controller that would do the trick. LEDNET makes some that are wifi and can be controlled with MagicHome Polyglot v2 Nodeserver. I have both and prefer the LEDNET because of price and better overall control.

I've had to delete then re-make a couple of routines or change the action order to get a couple to work. All of mine work now.

It could be the way you said it, she is a girl.

Yes, the alert module is supported in v5. I have 2 that will start to beep if a door is open after a certain time or when a certain security level is set.

Yes

I have both. It depends on the application which brand I use. I prefer Insteon overall over any z-wave but I haven't upgraded to the newest z-wave and that might change my opinion if I can get the same feedback from the GE switches as I do from the Insteon. I have one right next to the other in a couple of locations and other than the led positions I don't notice any difference in quality or feel.

It's gone, but I remember there was an error reading the node slot list and something about it trying to install in a prohibited node /ns/0. I will be setting up another one tomorrow or Sunday and if it happens again I will at least get a screen shot.

Not sure why but Nodelink installed itself over or into a used node slot. I got it all sorted out. Forced it into the node I wanted and then uploaded the profile.zip from the polyglot and everything is as it should be.

@Thanatar Thank you! Good thread and all the info I need to get going.

I think I'd like to have a loud rack of a shotgun and a raspy voice saying "Get outta here before I call the cops", don't think Alexa can pull that off. I get foot traffic down the alley late at night a few times a year and sometimes they ignore the siren and light coming on while they peer into my vehicle. I do usually get nice video that my local PD really appreciates.

I would be interested in pushing an mp3 file to a Yamaha MusicCast speaker using ISY as either a notification or part of a security scheme to scare off a prowler. I found an API but it's rather old. Surely there is a way to do something with a network resource. Any ideas?

It will reset on its own, give it time to send a heartbeat, could be several hours.
