I suppose you could replace the toggle on the wall with a momentary if you can find one and then do the logic for the IO output to change states when it is pressed. I put the wall switch in series with my on/off relay because I wanted a way to definitively disable the fireplace from turning on. When that switch is off there is no way the FP will turn on period. Then the relay controls the FP, either by schedule or a console located somewhere in the room. That has worked out pretty well for us. One thing you may want to do, though. Put a bypass around the IO relay somewhere. If the power goes out in the winter and you can run your FP, it will come in handy! No blower, but at least some heat.

This happened to me also. I was out of town all week, today my wife said the lights seemed to be about an hour off. I checked and the clock was a month off, it thought this was February.

Thanks Michel. The last time I checked, the Earth is still turning on its axis! (and my wife has a sense of humor)

Downloaded and installed 2.6.2, seems to be working now. I usually prefer to wait for the official release but when we came home to a dark house my wife was not too impressed. Then the TV sound was not working because heaven forbid she should use the Harmony to turn on the TV so the home theater will go on also, while I was explaining that to her, the ISY was re-starting from the update, and the lights went off and on a couple of times. . . . Wife was not feeling a whole lot of love for technology at that point.

Tried this (cycled ISY power). Still does not work. Missed the 'pre-sunset' event.

2.6. I haven't upgraded to the new beta yet since I've been out of town a lot lately.

Ok, this is kind of crazy. This morning nothing was working. Last night the 11 pm program did run properly, but no statuses got updated. The date said March 2nd even though it was right yesterday after I synchronized it. So I synchronized it again and it read Sat March 1st like it's supposed to. But a few minutes ago it ran an 8 am program that's only supposed to run on weekdays! What's going on here???? Thx.

According to the Java console log, the last events to run for me were 8 am this morning. My pre-sunset and sunset events did not fire. I noticed the date was wrong (I was out of town, just got back late this afternoon), so I synchronized manually per the email (after sunset). Next scheduled event is 11 pm, so I'll see if that fires.

Isn't there any way for someone to take the Java console output and do some name resolution and formatting on it and display it? I use it all the time, I find it more useful than the ISY log anyway since it actually logs X10 activity and the clock has more resolution. And you can watch it in real time. It's just so cryptic. Is this possible?

Download the Advanced Configuration Guide. It is for the 26, but I suspect it will be the same for 99. Someone here should probably confirm that before you try it! http://www.universal-devices.com/resources.htm

I would like to see this as well.

Thanks Michel!

Hi Michel or Chris, Will this next drop have an 'x' or some other indication in the program tree when a program is disabled. Didn't see it in the enhancement list, but I can still hope! I guess it's too soon for that Program Summary Filter.

OMG that's funny, but it doesn't surprise me in the least. I got rid of AOL probably 10 years ago, we get it free from Time Warner and my wife still uses it, but that's it. I use my AOL email address as a spam address. I don't think any residential broadband services assign static IP's. I know mine doesn't.

Don't waste your breath, man, Michel isn't real, he's just a machine like "Katelyn your (automated) customer service specialist. OK, let's get started" Seriously, what these guys demonstrate is the epitome of good customer service because they don't treat the customer as a necessary evil (extreme example: airlines) and genuinely care about the customer experience. I know it will get more and more difficult as the company grows larger, but as a general rule, the employees will assume the same attitude as the owners if led by example. There will come a day when Michel is not personally answering a lot of these posts because the company will have grown and taken much more of his time (as if it doesn't now, right?). But I'm sure he and Chris and whoever else will have instilled in the new people the same motivation that has them posting on this board at 1 am. You will, guys, right?
