Popularity of Zwave module, should my app support?
Xathros replied to Joe Schofield's topic in ISY994
Good to hear. I for one would encourage you to push ahead with ZWave support. There are a great many ZWave devices now and even more coming to market. Once the new ISY firmware ships with multi channel ZWave support, there will be lots of people looking for support for their pool/spa controllers, multi outlet power strips, LED lightstrip controllers etc. Your app looks to be a real winner now and if it gains full ZWave support along with the ISY, they will become an unbeatable combo in my opinion. -Xathros -
Anytime. Glad I could help. -Xathros

Why wait to store your critical vars. sny that I need saved, i copy to init with every change. That way I'm covered for any power fail or reboot. . -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Contrary to what the popup window says, i would reboot the ISY and see if that helps. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks. I already had that document a while back. Couldn't find anything like it for the 599 however. -Xathros

Joe- The TLS settings are found in the Dashboard, not the admin console. You can download the Dashboard.jnlp from the announcement post for your firmware level. 4.2.18 is an older console. 4.2.23 is current. I do recomment moving to the current firmware, console and dashboard versions. -Xathros PS: just looked over your website and App. Nice work. I see this on my wall in the not too distant future. Keep up the excellent work!

I can't say for sure but my gut says that the lock itself is the weak link here. The 599 in particular bugs me in that it can't be remotely unlocked for more than a few seconds yet there is a button on the lockset that will unlock the lock until it's told otherwise. Seems to me like Schlage never finished the ZWave interface on this one. -Xathros

Looks like only user access codes are represented in the "Control" list. Lock and Unlock are Status only events. -Xathros
-
You could break your program into two separate programs, one for each lock. That would also solve the problem. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'll have a look at what is available on my 599s when I get home and report back. My memory says I'm using control for some of mine but won't know for sure till I look. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The if is evaluated any time either status changes. The FE599 when unlocked remotely will automatically relock after a few seconds changing it's status and forcing your if to reevaluate. This may be where the extra unexpected notification is coming from. You could change "Status" to "Control" and get the result you want. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry. I have learned from doing over many years. While I'm sure there are resources out there to learn from, I don't know where to point you. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thats how I read it. -Xathros -
Excellent! Glad you got it going. -Xathros

Try port 587 and check the Use TLS box. -Xathros

Or, you could narrow this down to one program: Motion On Master Bath Motion On - [ID 0023][Parent 0025] If Control 'System Devices / Master Bedroom and Bath / Motion Sensor-Sensor' is switched On Or Control 'System Devices / Master Bedroom and Bath / Z-Wave Shower Motion Sensor' is switched On Then Set Scene 'Scenes / Master Bathroom and Shower' On Wait 2 minutes Set Scene 'Scenes / Master Bathroom and Shower' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') In this program, the wait restarts with each new Motion On received and will timeout and turn off the lights after 2 minutes with no motion detected. Hope this helps. -Xathros

I'm using pool.ntp.org on both of my ISY's just fine with "Custom location" based on my lat/lon. One thing I found way back when I set this up was that I couldn't get the ISY to accept my location until I enlarged the custom location window and discovered that the longitude field that previously hidden. Once expanded and both lat/lon values entered, all worked like a champ. See below: One additional item to check: look at your error log after trying to sync. Make sure you have no DNS errors. If you do, you may want to try providing the ISY with 8.8.4.4 for a DNS server. Hope this helps. -Xathros

With the upcoming V5.x firmwares, things like date and time may be assignable to variables. Once that is possible, you should be able to order them however you like. -Xathros

Your looking at the settings for your incoming mail server. You need to look at the SMTP (Outbound) settings in your Apple Mail program. The settings Jimbo provided however will likely work for you. -Xathros

Hmmm. I replied to this around 4:30. Dunno what happened to my reply. Anyway, I tested and got the expected result- fail. Pretty sure that was a typo and should have read Device rather than Scene. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hmmm - Just noticed this in my notes: /rest/nodes/<node- id>/cmd/<command_name>/<param1>/<param2>/.../<param5> eg: /rest/nodes/<node-id>/cmd/DOF - turn off a device or a scene Insteon - /rest/nodes/<node-id>/cmd/DON/128 - turn on a scene to 50% This was copied from an older WSDK document an may be a typo. I have not tested this yet but will in a minute. -Xathros

That is because they are two entirely different actions. In the first case, the ISY's PLM is sending a DIRECT command to the ONE device in question. In the second case, the Device itself is sending a group command to all linked devices when you press the paddle. It's actually a very common to have this confusion with new users here. "Why when I control a device from the ISY does it not control the other devices linked to the device I controlled?" The difference is that the ISY and most other HA controllers are controlling the device with direct commands - not group/scene commands. If you were to analyze what happens when you brighten the scene by holding the paddle, you would see that the device is sending "Fade Up" then Fade Stop" to the group. You can do that same thing from your App via the PLM. The difficulty here is going to s specific brightness as that is NOT built into the protocol for a group command. -Xathros

I make a new backup after any significant change and with every firmware update. I have never needed to restore for reasons other than going back to an older firmware to test something. Regardless, I'd not want to be without a current backup. -Xathros
-
Not sure on the adjust scene part as I've never done that via REST. The direct ON commands are simply: /rest/nodes/12 12 1F 1/cmd/DON/143 /rest/nodes/12 12 1E 1/cmd/DON/143 /rest/nodes/12 12 1D 1/cmd/DON/143 -Xathros

Not sure how else one could end up in that situation but, as long as you have a good backup of the ISY, recovery shouldn't be difficult. -Xathros
