Wireless tag won't pass authorization.
@apostolakisl Based on a few topics on here, more than a few of us have switched from wireless tags to YoLink. I had battery issues with the wireless tags and have had no issues with YoLink. You do need a YoLink hub. I'm not sure what you use your tags for, but YoLink was definitely an upgrade for me. Ross

eisy-ui confusion
@Athlon I just want you to know you're the cause of all the fingerprints on my monitor. I try to get that little bug and then I realize "Oh, it's Athlon!"

EISY sprinkler integration?
I use OpenSprinkler and it has worked well for me. Please see this 2 year old topic (where someone else's EZ Flora died): Ross

2852-222 leak sensor misses heartbeat, +future HA
@Geddy I have an ISY and the Yolink plug-in and it works great. However, I recently found that I can not add any new Yolink devices so that they appear in the ISY. And, unfortunately, UD does not support the ISY. This may be the straw that makes me switch to the EISY. Ross

Zwave Thermostat Inaccurate?
I use a temperature sensor in another part of the room and programs to adjust the thermostat settings based on the sensor. This method ignores what the thermostat "thinks" is the temperature.

Auto-logout due to slow response time from PG3x
@Geddy @JTsao Would you please provide a recommendation (or what's working for you) as to the ups? Sounds like something I should investigate. Thanks, Ross

Kasa Switches Not Discovered
I've had issues with this nodeserver. I've paid my $30 twice, but I still get a "subscription has expired" notice. I downloaded the non-production 3.2.4 as you've done. My Custom Configuration Parameters were: change_node_names, discover_timeout and auto_discover. User and Password weren't the options. So, I added them. Unfortunately, it still shows as disconnected.

Plugin (Node) Not Available for a Program
@Panda88 I appreciate that - but I messed myself up loading 2 different Kasa plugins and I still haven't been able to get it to work. I don't want to mess up the YoLinks I have working (and I know I would!). I've submitted a ticket and I'll report back.

Plugin (Node) Not Available for a Program
@Panda88 I've been running the ISY and the nodeservers on the Polisy for a long time without any YoLink Issues. This only broke because last week I thought about how well the system had been running for so long... @bpwwer I did #1 and 2. Not sure what to do for #3, but I restarted the AC and YoLink still doesn't show up if I want to use the status in a program. I then downloaded and attached the log package. The temperatures update on the Main tab, but I can't use YoLink in a program. I also noticed that any program using YoLink (i.e., update a variable if the temperature changes) doesn't work. ISY firmware and UI are both 5.3.4. The Polisy version and Frontend version is 3.1.13. @Panda88 I don't necessarily want a special program for me. Your plugin/nodeserver has worked great for a long time and then all of a sudden stopped. If you can't glean anything from the log, then I'll submit a ticket. I've been waiting for an "event" to upgrade to EISY. Perhaps this is what I needed to do so. I just hope the problem doesn't transfer to the EISY. Thank you again, Ross YoLink_5-7-2025_85038-PM.zip

Plugin (Node) Not Available for a Program
Thank you all for your help. @Panda88 I installed YoLink in a new slot, but there is no change. It does not appear in Status and appears in Control. I am using an ISY and a Polisy for the Plugins. ISY firmware and UI are both 5.3.4. The Polisy version and Frontend version is 3.1.13. @Geddy I've restarted the Plugin and restarted the AC several times. Browsing to your link replacing EISY with Polisy and also using my internal IP address both returned "This site can't be reached". I've had trouble updating my java on my computer - it gives me an error. I will look into it further this weekend. @bpwwer I've clicked the Load Profile, waited a minute to several minutes, and then restarted AC a few times. No luck each time, though. Ross

Plugin (Node) Not Available for a Program
I'm not sure this is a YoLink issue as much as it's either a Plugin issue or a "me" issue... I have several YoLink temperature sensors which I use in programs to do something or notify me when a temperature condition is reached. Now, when I create a new program, I click Condition and select Status, but the YoLinks do not show up as a selection in the next dropdown box. If I click Control, they do show up, but that's not helpful as I need the status (temperature), not whether it's on or off. The strange thing is that my current programs using YoLinks continue to work. So, I copied a working program and tried to edit it, but the same thing happens - the YoLink in that program doesn't appear in the dropdown. The YoLinks all appear in the Main tab under Nodes and they do reflect current conditions. I have reinstalled the plugin into the same slot with no effect. Below are some screenshots. Thank you for any and all assistance, Ross Main tab YoLinks should appear below WeatherLink when I select Status, but don't: YoLinks do appear if I select Control (which is of no use to me, though)

Kasa Devices to support
@Jimbo.Automates Thank you. I only see version 3.1.4 available. And I've read there's a 3.2.2 version around. I probably need to update my Polisy (I run the ISY and have my plug-ins on Polisy). I'll look into this in about 3 weeks as I am traveling off/on for a bit. Hopefully this forum remains open until then! And, I do appreciate that this is a side job for you and also appreciate what all plugin developers do for us users. Thanks again, Ross

@GlowingHair I'm curious about this. Would you please provide an example or two of how you do this? Thank you, Ross

@Jimbo.Automates Well, I've paid $60 for this plugin (it charged me $30 twice) and it still doesn't work. Please let me know if this is fixable or not. Thanks, Ross

Kasa Devices to support
@Jimbo.Automates I believe I now have the correct version - 3.2.4 [beta]. Thank you to @bmercier. However, it is still disconnected. I notice the last line of the log says: No module named 'mashumaro' I'm attaching the log and the log package as I saw that @mjrush had the same issue and you asked him to do the same: Thank you in advance for any and all assistance, Ross Kasa_2-18-2025_72144-PM.zip Kasa_2-18-2025_72145-PM.zip

Kasa Devices to support
I'm jumping back into this thread after a couple of months. I'm still disconnected. I have bought the Production store Kasa (Standard - Perpetual) twice (and have been charged $30 twice) and yet I am still receiving the following message: "The subscription for this node server has expired." So, I'm a bit gun shy to install it yet again (and get charged again). When I go into the Production store, I only see 3.1.4 available. I don't see 3.2.4. I see the same thing in the non-production store. I am running an ISY (v 5.3.4) and using a Polisy (v 3.1.13) for the plug-ins. Thank you as always, Ross

Battery Percentage Update Rate
@paulbates I understand and agree. But if I get 24x6, I'm happy. 😁

Battery Percentage Update Rate
I leave my admin console open at all times and each of my plugins update at all times. About once a week, the admin console freezes - it becomes like a jpg on the screen - you can't do anything with it. So, I close the AC and reopen it. I have not found the "frozen condition" to have any effect on my ISY. It keeps on working running programs and updating variables.

Which would you recommend: Openweathermap or Weatherbit
I have my own weather station for current weather, but I use OpenWeatherMap for forecasts. I live in an area of many microclimates (at about 1000 feet in the foothills east of San Diego) and it does a pretty good job with temperature and rain forecasts. Microclimates are tough on any forecasting service as the temperature can be 10-15 degrees different 5 miles from my house. Rainfall variability is high as well due to nearby elevation changes.

Admin console keeps logging out
I have my admin console open (minimized usually) at all times. When it locks up every 5 days or so, I shut it down and reopen it. I'm a tinkerer and I like having it available for when I get a thought. I also get ideas from these forums and immediately try it out. It's just easier to have it be a click away than wait the 2 minutes to boot up (finding the start file, entering the password, waiting for my programs to load). I assume (and hope) it's not harmful to have it always available. Ross

Embedding images from security cameras
I completely understand. I'm going to put in some cameras this year, so I'm starting to dip my toe into determining what works best - and, maybe more importantly, easiest - with the UDI universe. I'm one of those who wants everything but I don't have the time nor the skills (but I surprise myself every once in a while) to get things off the ground. Let me please revisit this in 6 months (of course, this thread will be closed by then!). Ross

Embedding images from security cameras
@Andy P I really appreciate what you did here. But, it's a bit over my head. I can do basic html and change someone else's javascript. Would you mind uploading the file in notepad? I'm good at taking others' work and manipulating it for myself, but it's hard for me to start from scratch! Thank you. Ross

is SMS deprecated? something better for eisy push notices?
@shergenr I'm still using Verizon and it's great when it works, but no good when it doesn't. What is happening to you is happening to me currently. I'm just waiting it out so I can have another 6-8 months of no issues. I recommend UD Mobile - it works great. Ross
