@dbwarner5 How about iAqualink? I haven't moved that one yet (I did, had some issues, and moved it back to PG3). Thanks, Ross

@dbwarner5 I had the Not Loaded problem with a few programs. Apparently, EISY-UI didn't like the "/" character in my program names (e.g., On/Off). It also didn't like any program where I called upon the plugin ST-Sonos (which, per another thread, is not working in EISY-UI). Once I changed "/" to "-" and deleted lines related to ST-Sonos, the programs worked. There may be other reasons why your programs are Not Loaded, but I would look for non-alphanumeric characters and lines that call non-workable (yet) plugins. I had a lot of iAqualink plugin issues. I just reverted that one back to PG3. I haven't had time to research why I had trouble with that one yet. I also agree with you that having a text file for my programs is very helpful. Ross

@wrj0 After updating and migrating to Eisy-UI, I have a Wake-On-Lan in my "eisy Plugins". When I want to add a WOL line in a program, when I select Command, that plugin does not appear. However, if I select Network Command, it does. Unfortunately, it pulls the information from the WOL in the Admin Console - not the plugin. Any thoughts? Thanks, Ross

@Techman I am now using Eisy-UI. Prior to that, I was doing the backups listed in the attachment. Does the one "Create Backup" button in the Eisy-UI replace all but UD Mobile? If so, it's a timesaver. Thanks, Ross

I'm not sure who is in charge of the Wiki. It would be nice to know the process of how it is changed/updated. Ross

@Vanhalo Short answer - I believe it does. Please see if this helps you: https://jpk.io/home-automation/local-sprinkler-control-opensprinkler-home-assistant/ Long answer - I don't control the master valve on mine, but it's interesting that you ask this because I just had a leak (pressure side) and thought that I should! So, I don't know the answer and am going to start researching. Based on the article I linked (search for the word "master"), it appears that you connect the master valve to any terminal and then tell the software which terminal it is. I'm looking at my settings and it appears I can do the same - see the first picture below. When I click on Tap to Configure Master 1, it appears I can assign it to one of my two open terminals (2nd picture). I can't guarantee it since I haven't used that feature (yet). I recommend you download the OS guide and see what it says as I won't get to this for a bit. Sorry for the TMI. Ross

@Vanhalo OpenSprinkler just needs power and either an ethernet connection or good wifi. I've had it running for about 3 years and the plugin works well. I have it turn off if rain is forecast and the duration is controlled by what the temperature was the previous day. Ross

@oberkc This thread states the Sunset issue is a known problem being fixed in the next release. Ross

Hi @bpwwer , I enjoy using your plugins and am grateful you are willing to share your talents! Is it not possible to have 2 plugins? OWM-3.0 and OWM-4.0? I remember you did something similar to two different Davis Weatherlinks a while back (I had an older version). Thanks, Ross

You may want to buzz through this thread to see if it helps you. Your settings look like mine. My "Use Default" box is unchecked.

You may be correct, but I've been doing it for 5 years without a hitch (perhaps with good luck on my side). I could go to weekly when I'm home and daily when I'm on vacation. Thanks, Ross

Even though it's (probably) not necessary, I have my router on an on/off module and reboot it (off for a minute) every day. I feel it has cleared up a few of these types of mysterious issues.

@FarmerGeek Put the router on an Insteon on/off module (or Kasa or Yolink) so you can reset it remotely. I have a program that turns my router and cable modem off for 1 minute each day at 5:15. I know I shouldn't have to do it, but I've had few router problems since I've been doing it. Ross

I'm not sure this is helpful, but you can use 2 outdoor on/off modules to control a linear actuator. Scroll down to see my post here: https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/45156-seeking-advice-on-controlling-linear-actuator/#comment-394531 Turn on the first module, the gate opens. Turn on the second module, the gate closes. Turn them both on (or off), nothing happens. Ross

I use gmail to send emails. Here are my settings.

Verizon still allows email to text notifications. However, every once in awhile (about twice a year), they do get wonky for a about a week or so.

I have to say that it has never been a problem for me to leave the admin console open 24/7. Yes, after a few days it stops working, but I simply close Java via Task Manager and then start it up again. To my knowledge, leaving it open has never affected anything adversely. I like having it open so I can tinker whenever I want.

@photogeek54 I'm mostly a lurker, but I use this as well. I'm also timid of trying anything that is non-production! I'll gladly update when it hits the productions store. Thank you for helping us out, Ross

I don't know who has access to the Wiki, but when tidbits like this are shared, can they also be added to the Wiki? Ross

I have YoLink sensors which, via programming, control my Insteon thermostats (no plugin needed and are available on eBay) which control my heat pump. I use OpenWeatherMap for forecasting. I poll once every 6 hours.

@paulbates Paul, will you please let me know what you replace the IOLink with? Hopefully something from YoLink. Thanks, Ross

Grew up in Indiana. Most of the state stayed on Eastern Standard time year-round. The counties in the NW corner were on Central time and changed their clocks to stay with Chicago. Same for a few counties in the SW corner. The counties near Louisville were officially not supposed to change their clocks, but they did anyway to stay on Louisville time. There was a West Wing episode about Indiana's crazy time zones back then. I lived in Evansville and went to school in Bloomington. It took "3 hours" to drive to school, but only "1 hour" to drive home. We just used to call it Slow Time or Fast Time so we all knew when lunch was. Ross

I ran into this over the weekend. I recommend drinking. In Configuration - System, there is a checkbox "Query at Restart". Uncheck it! Good luck, Ross

@PhanTomiZ Worked like a charm! @Geddy had previously mentioned that I may need to update my App Password. When I went in to create a new one for my EISY, my previous App Password for my ISY said it was last used on Feb 23 - that corresponded to when it stopped working. @PhanTomiZ Please offer your "Instruction Services" to UDI and write the definitive instructions to Migrate to an EISY! I needed it this past weekend. The only thing I would change is #7 Instead of "7. For Password enter the password associated with your Account" Use this: "7. For Password enter your newly created App Password associated with your Account" Thank you again! Ross

@Geddy I will consider changing the app password; however, I might wait until I exhaust other possibilities (including opening a ticket) as I've forgotten the process and will need to do some research. To answer your other question: I send to both a text email (Verizon - I know, archaic) and a once/day email to another Gmail account. My last Sent email was Feb 24. I'm good with UD Mobile notifications, but my wife just wants a text. I prefer the texts myself. Thanks, Ross
