Are you launching the console from the desktop icon or from a browser session? -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Have you tested different dim levels? -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I bought mine from Amazon. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Try unscrewing the CFL's and run the test again. If it passes, that would indicate that the CFL's are causing issues. -Xathros

Excellent! As always, happy to help. -Xathros

Hi Alan- In my experience, the IOLinc is quite reliable in reporting status. Insteon however, can be less reliable when it comes to passing that message down the wire due to noise or signal attenuation. Assuming you are NOT using the Trigger Reverse option on your IOLinc, and that you have a scene containing all of the KPL buttons involved, you can poll as follows: Program: Poll GD Status (run at startup is checked!) If Time is 1:00 am Then Repeat every 15 minutes Run Program Fix_GD_Lights (if Path) Else Program: Fix_GD_Lights (Disabled) If Status GD_IOLinc_Sensor is On Then Set Scene 'GD_KPL_Lights' On Else Set Scene 'GD_KPL_Lights' Off This however, seems to me like a band aid. The real problem is a comm failure. Hope this helps -Xathros

Hello BigDigger- Welcome to the forum. Are the sunrise/sunset times displayed in the admin console accurate for your location? There is no reason that I can think of that would cause that not to work. It is more likely a comm problem that is preventing the Off command from being heard. Try running a level 3 event viewer trace and run a few scene tests on that scene. Post the resulting trace. What kind of load(s) are being controlled with that scene? Some loads can cause noise or attenuate the signals when they are on making it possible to reliably turn ON a device/scene but not reliably turn OFF the device/scene. -Xathros

Hi smokegrub- You don't need the Admin in the applications folder. You should only have the one on your desktop. Java apps are different than native Mac apps. To clear the Java cache: Go to system preferences and select the Java Icon in the bottom row. On the General Tab, click the "Settings" button. On the next window, click the "Delete Files..." button. On the next window, make sure all 3 check boxes are checked. Click "OK", "OK", "OK" Then Go to http://isy.universal-devices.com/994i/4.1.2/admin.jnlp and save the resulting file to your downloads. Go to your downloads and double click the Admin.jnlp file This will create a new Admin icon on your desktop with UI 4.1.2 Save this procedure for future updates like the upcoming 4.1.3 release. Also, I believe the problems that you are having are not related to Mavericks directly but rather the fact that you are using Safari. Safari tries to open files for you after downloading them. There is a setting in Safari preferences to stop that behavior -or- you could use Firefox instead. Hope this helps. -Xathros

The way I would do this is as follows: Create a scene that contains the devices that you want to beep as responders. Lets call it: AlarmBeepScene Then a program to make it beep under the right conditions: If Status 'MB outside light.C alarm' is On And ( Control 'Garage side door-Opened' is Switched On Or Control 'Patio Sliding Door-Opened' is Switched On Or Control 'front door-Opened' is Switched On ) Then Set Scene 'AlarmBeepScene' Beep Set Scene 'AlarmBeepScene' Beep Set Scene 'AlarmBeepScene' Beep Set Scene 'AlarmBeepScene' Beep Set Scene 'AlarmBeepScene' Beep Set Scene 'AlarmBeepScene' Beep Else Using the scene to beep will cut down on Insteon traffic and simplify the program. As oberkc pointed out above, use Control rather than status to capture the event of the door opening not the state of the door being open. We want Status on the KPL button however since we want to capture it's state rather than the event of it being turned on. If you are still having traffic issues, try adding a 1 or 2 second wait in the then section before the scene beeps to get them out of the way. -Xathros

Check the last run time of one of the programs. Would that time make any difference to the folder conditions? What are the conditions on the folder for this program? Your original post is a bit vague in regard to the folder congitions. Did you use control or status? -Xathros

The only other suggestion I have would be to power the ISY with a 5v wall wart plugged into the UPS so that it doesn't go down when the PLM power goes out. -Xathros

flsenior- I highly suspect that your problem is related to DHCP and/or UPNP. When power is restored, the ISY boots quickly and looks for an IP address from your router which is not yet ready. A simple solution would be to set a static IP address in the ISY so that it is not depending on your router for this function. Once the modem and router have come online you should then be able to access your ISY from outside. Hope this helps. -Xathros

No Problem. As always, happy to help. Make the toggle program a ML favorite. Edit the custom status labels to say 1 for true and 0 for false (or vice versa depending on how your toggle is coded) Make the Favorite action a RunIf that way you can actually toggle by pressing the favorite as well. You could also name the true/false labels based on what the variable does for you. I do this with a number of toggles in my system: Pellet Stove Enable/Disabe, Netfilter Enable/Disable, Home/Away etc. -Xathros

Click once on the folder in the tree - the conditions will appear in the IF section on the right. -Xathros

If you disable that program and call it from another program (Run If Path) then you will get the result that you want. Disabling a program prevents it from self triggering but it does not prevent it being run from another program. Hope this helps. -Xathros

Does the KPL and all of its buttons appear in the admin console? If so, what do you mean the button has no "On" value? If it is a KPL Dimmer, the button A (KPLD8) or On Button (KPLD6) value should be somewhere between 0% (Off) and 100% (On). If it is a relay device it should only be capable of 0% or 100%. The non-load buttons should only be capable of On/Off. Being a scene member does not make a device not have a status. -Xathros

EircK- You are correct that it would need to be a state variable as a state variable will trigger a program on a change in value just like a device will trigger on a change in status. In this case there would be no difference between the status of the button and the state of the variable. Adding the variable is just an extra wasted step. You would be monitoring the status of the KPL to set the variable then using the variable change and time to drive the lights. Might as well just use the button status and the time to accomplish the same end goal with fewer programs. Does that make sense? starhome- Your KPL buttons should have a state in the console and you can look for the status in programs as follows: If Time is 6:30am and Status MBR_KPL-D is On Then As Lee pointed out above, this approach would require that the KPL button be on at 6:30 for to happen. If you would like to have the happen between 6:30 am and some later time when turning the button On, you could change the time component of the IF to a range instead: Time is From 6:30am To 10:00am (Same Day) To take this all a step further, you could add a function to the KPL button being turned off or the end time of the range arriving as follows: If Time is from 6:30am to 10:00am (Same Day) and Status MBR_KPL-D is On and Control MBR_KPL-D is not switched Off Then Else In the above program, turning off the KPL button anytime will as well as the arrival of the 10am end time. Hope this helps. -Xathros

Only down sides to the multi-scene approach is the delay caused by waiting for a program to respond to the local control then set the scene on. And, in a situation where a local control is also the load controller, you will see the lights turn on to the locally set onlevel and ramp rate then change a second or so later when the program sets the other values. Using the adjust scene method allows instant reaction to a local control. This is my preferred method for switch type controls. I use the multi scene method with motion sensors and door sensors as the triggering controls. There are pros and cons to either method. You just need to pick what works best for you. -Xathros

See: http://forum.universal-devices.com/viewtopic.php?p=108831#p108831 -Xathros

And in addition to what LeeG said above, if the lights are on at the times the scene is changed and you want the lights to dim or brighten automaticaly, you will need to add another program with a "Set Scene 'Basement Playroom Lights' On" command scheduled for the times above - or maybe a few seconds after the times above to ensure the scene adjust runs first. Simply adjusting the scene parameters does not change the current on level - you must set the scene on again after the change. -Xathros

I believe you will have this in your next update if not already. It is part of the Geofence settings on the iOS Mobilinc. -Xathros

Try one program (disabled) and call runIf with /rest Program: ToggleLights (disabled to prevent endless loop) If Status MyLightSwitch is not Off Then Set MyLightSwitch Off Else Set MyLightSwitch On Hope this helps. -Xathros

You can view the values in the admin console on the integer and/or state variables tabs under programs or you can create a custom notification to send the values in a text or email message. -Xathros

Excellent! Glad you got it going. Works for me. -Xathros

Is the location shown the same as what you entered in the Exception list? Try clearing the java cache (including applications) then go to the security tab in the java control panel, click manage certificates and remove any listed from Universal devices. Then start again by double clicking the admin.jnlp file in your downloads to create a new desktop icon. Accept any certificate prompts along the way. -Xathros
