  1. I had a failed NS issue. I stopped the NS, unplugged my Sonos speakers, then plugged them all back in and started the NS. It then worked and has worked since. I was changing playlists really quickly via an ISY program I wrote (testing it) and I feel that broke it (but I don't know for sure and I haven't pushed it since). So, do the off/on thing and see if it connects and stays connected before you actually do anything with it ISY-wise.

    More info: From the reading of the SolarEdge Monitoring Server API pdf (linked in my first post) I've determined that the API call that provides the lifetime, current year, current month and current day power generated is: https://monitoringapi.solaredge.com/site/<X>/overview?api_key=<Z> where: <X> is the 6 digit site ID <Z> is the api key. I don't know how to create a node server, but I would appreciate it if someone would please take a crack at it. Thank you, Ross

    @bpwwer and Anyone Interested Bob, I believe you wrote the SolarEdge node server. If incorrect, please let me know and, if possible, point me in the right direction. In reading the SolarEdge API manual, PDF here, there appear to be many APIs. The one on PG3 appears to be the "Inverter Technical Data" API on p. 38. Unfortunately, it doesn't provide the data I assume most would want: how much energy is the system producing? I believe the API that divulges energy production is one of the Site Energy APIs on pages 13-23. It would be nice to know how many KWHs the system has produced YTD, MTD and Today. I would appreciate you (or anyone else??) looking into it. I'm happy to test and pay a reasonable fee as the current NS is free. Thank you, Ross
  4. @vbphilI just created this topic. Perhaps if fits what you're looking for.
  5. @auger66 Simplextech (creator of the NS) has stated that he doesn't check the forums regularly. However, if you send him a DM requesting that he look at this topic, he will do so. He did that for me for my pseudo-problem last week that ended up being something wonky with my speakers. Ross
  6. After upgrading Polisy, learning about putty, SSH-ing, Node.js among other things and researching forums about other node server "Failed" issues and sweating about this for a couple of days, I stumbled upon a great idea. I unplugged and plugged back in my Sonos speakers and the node server worked again. Happy New Year, Ross
  7. @simplextech To answer your questions, I am running Polisy version 3.1.13 and Frontend Version 3.1.13. Also, my ISY is 5.3.4. Following your instructions to get the node.js version, I got v18.7.0. @bpwwer The node.js version on my Polisy is v18.7.0. Thanks, Ross
  8. @simplextech I am running Polisy version 3.1.13 (front-end version is the same). I'll need to research how to SSH as I've never done that before. I am attaching a log (not mine) that @auger66 posted back on May 9th in this thread: The errors there "error: POLY: Node a0a654e not found" are similar to my errors; however, I'm not sure how it was resolved. Thanks, Ross . ST-sonos log.txt
  9. Just an update on ST-Sonos Failed. I uninstalled it completely last night and then reinstalled it this morning (trying the old off-and-on technique). Same issue - Failed after a few seconds. I clicked on Download Log and Download Log Package (I'm not sure of the difference) and attached them here. A recurring theme in the logs are: "error: POLY: Node e1c98da not found". Maybe I should install it in a different slot? Thank you for any assistance, Ross ST-Sonos_12-28-2022_73451-AM.zip ST-Sonos_12-28-2022_73443-AM.zip
  10. Thanks @Bumbershoot. Not that I need to reinstall NSs very often, but this tip is helpful. Unfortunately, it did not solve my problem. So, I completely deleted the NS and reinstalled it (losing my links in the process) - and I still have the same problem (Failed). I'll await a response by @simplextech. Ross
  11. When I restart (or stop/start - I've tried both), it says Connected for about 3 seconds and then goes back to Failed. It doesn't appear that anything can be done in Configuration as I have no entries there. I suppose I can uninstall/install the NS. I believe I can do it in the same slot and programs won't be affected. I'll see if anyone chimes in. I've worked with @simplextech before and he's been very responsive. This can wait until after the holidays.
  12. @simplextech and others: Bought this earlier today and it worked for several hours (I did get it to play my Christmas music) but it is now "Failed". I've attached the log. Absolutly no hurry - i can play the music through the Sonos app in the meantime. Thanks, Ross ST-Sonos Failed State 2022-12-24.txt
  13. The door to my tortoise hutch did not open as scheduled at 8am on Sunday morning. I had to actually walk over and hit the door-open button to let the little buggers run free for the day... I do have a Polisy, but this is a straight program on a separate ISY.
  14. My OpenSprinkler (with extender) is on its way. I would prefer to stand on the shoulders of great men and women who have come up with programming for it! Would you please post a (or some) standard and interesting programs or ideas for OpenSprinkler or other systems? I also have a personal weather station and an OpenWeatherMap forecast, so I am also interested in programs that utilize recent/expected rain and/or temperature info to ratchet back or turn off the irrigation. I live in SoCal and water rates are going through the proverbial roof... Always appreciative, Ross
  15. Upgrade went fine. For the first time ever, Polisy/PG3/ISY are all on the current versions. I feel it would be handy if one was notified of a more current version (in Polisy or ISY after you login) similar to how a phone app says you're not using a current version and click this button to update. That would be nice for those of us who don't like to tinker; however, I'm sure there are myriad reasons why it can't or shouldn't be done. Now I need to get UDI Mobile updated and start learning all of the bells and whistles I'm not currently taking advantage of. Watch for me over in that forum! Thanks, Ross
  16. @@bpwwer @MrBill @Geddy I believe I understand now and sorry it took me so long to catch up. I do have an IoP, but I don't use it. I use my "other" ISY which is a standalone. However, I'm gleaning that I can go into IoP, Update Packages, and then my Polisy and/or PG3 will update. Then, I don't have to use IoP again until another update is needed (or until my current ISY dies). I haven't ever SSH'd (word?) and will do so if needed, but I'll try the above instead. Thank you all. I truly appreciate the generosity of your time as I've learned much just by lurking on this board. - Ross
  17. @MrBillI don't have IoP. I have a Polisy and a separate ISY. I just got a new SSD for my Polisy when it conked out about 3 months ago. I'm surprised that my version (3.0.63) is so out-of-date that I need special help to get it updated, but I'll open a ticket. I'm not sure if 3.0.63 is the Polisy version or the PG3 version - I'm not sure of the difference between the two. I saw a thread recently about updating v. not-updating-as-long-as-it-works. I've been in the latter camp but I am starting to see the folly of my ways. Thank you.
  18. @Geddy Tried to login at the link you provided, but when I click on "Login with ISY Portal", it goes to a page that just says "client_id is not valid" in the upper left.
  19. @GeddyHow can I tell what my Polisy OS version is? Also, I have already purchased "a brand new and updated SSD" when my Polisy conked out a few months ago. It worked perfectly when I put the new SSD in. I'll open a ticket. Thanks.
  20. Bob, my PG3 version is 3.0.63. My Admin Console is 5.3.4. I looked at your instructions (just above) for upgrading to 3.1.13 and it says "In the Admin Console, click on Configuration, Upgrade Packages". However, when I click on Configuration in the Admin Console, my choices are System, Emails/Notifications/IR, Electricity, Networking and Portals. I feel dumb as I know it's somewhere right in front of me, but I just don't see it. I am not running IOP - I have a Polisy with an ISY. Maybe that's the difference? Thanks, Ross
  21. @Panda88 It stopped working sometime last night (I believe). Attached is the log. Thank you! YoLink_9-11-2022_70215_AM.zip
  22. @Panda88 I don't have the log from the night of 9/7-9/8. I'll make sure to save a log if it happens again.
  23. @Panda88 Regarding "It seems it came back online at the end of the log file", I restarted it (resulting in it working again) and then I created the log file after that. So, that's what you're seeing. It also stopped working last night. In looking at last night's log, the time was 12:09. I don't think it can self-recover, but it does work when I restart it. I'm happy to assist in any way possible. I just need instructions. I'm hopeful this can replace my balky wireless tags. - Ross
  24. @Panda88 Just a note that at some point today, the Yolink NS stopped talking to the ISY. I restarted the NS in Polisy and the ISY is now being updated with current info. I believe somewhere in these 7 pages others may have had a similar issue, but I thought it was figured out. I'm attaching the log in case you want to investigate. I'm certainly not above unintentionally causing the issue either! Please let me know if it's something I did. - Ross YoLink_9-7-2022_90721_PM.zip
  25. @Panda88I revoked, recredentialed and restarted and it now works with Fahrenheit. I recredentialed yesterday and it didn't work for the rest of the day; however, it worked when I logged into Polisy this morning. Thank you for your help and I'll keep you posted on any other issues. - Ross
