  1. Add a wait to filter the switch bounces: If Between Sunset - Sunrise (next day) And Garage Door status is Open Then Wait 2 Set Flood light' On Else Wait 2 Set Flood Light' Off This will add a 2 second delay before executing the floodlight operations giving the door sensor time to settl down. -Xathros
  2. Then how are you setting the values for the variables XBMC and MCE ? With only that one program, I see no way for a loop to happen here. What does the Network Resource look like? I would think you would have a program that says: Program: Turn On XBMC: If MCE = 0 and XBMC = 0 Then Resource TurnOnXBMC XBMC = 1 and a program like: Program: Turn Off XBMC: If XBMC = 1 Then Resource TurnOIffXBMC XBMC = 0 and: Program: Turn On MCE If MCE=0 and XBMC = 0 Then Resource TurnOnMCE MCE = 1 and finally: Program: Turn Off MCE If MCE = 1 Then Resource TurnOffMCE MCE = 0 In the above examples, all variables are Integer - Not State variables. -Xathros
  3. I think we need to see more of your programs. Specifically, I would like to see the programs that call the resources and set the values of the state variables. -Xathros
  4. fox7- I am on OS 10.9 on my 13" MBAir and have no problem (or no more problems than in 10.8 ) saving ISY logs. What problems are you seeing? What version of Java are you running? I'm at: (build 1.7.0_45-b18) What level is your Java security set to? I'm at: High (minimum recommended) -Xathros
  5. Hi Ed- While it is possible that this is an Insteon or Programming issue, I would not expect a problem like this to occur unless you happened to have made some changes that correspond to the time this problem started. A more likely cause in my opinion is that the down position sensor has come lose and is no longer in the right position to tell the door system to stop, causing the down pressure sensor (crush prevention) to reverse the door direction when it hits the floor. -Xathros
  6. I have had 2 of my Foscams lose track of where the "home" position is after a few weeks of operation and as a result, all presets become wrong. A reboot of the camera fixes this. To avoid this, I have built a resource for each cam to reboot early morning daily. -Xathros
  7. Installed Java (build 1.7.0_45-b18) here and have no issues with the ISY. This is on my MAC. I will test with Windows 7 and XP next. -Xathros EDIT: Latest Java update installed on XP and Win 7 - No issues to report with the ISY Admin console. With the exception of a certificate error, I am able to get to the purchase modules site just fine. It shows the modules I own and offers to sell me the ones I don't. Both MAC and Win XP tested.
  8. As long as all of the devices being added are put into linking mode within the 4 minute window that the ISY remains in linking mode. -Xathros

    Take a screen capture and save it as a .jpg. Then use the upload attachment portion of the post entry screen to upload and place inline. -Xathros
  10. Well, thats good. Would be nice to know what happened though. -Xathros
  11. Then I have to suspect it's having issues with writing links to the newer Switchlincs. We need to focus on getting you up to 3.3.10 first. The new switchlincs are I2CS protocol which the old firmware does not support. -Xathros
  12. Go to the Java control panel applet and enable the Java console. That will let you see if there are java errors when you click around in the admin console. Also, verify that the Firmware and UI versions are the same under Help / About in the admin console. -Xathros
  13. Which one did you click to start the replacement? The New or the Old? It sounds to me like you started with the new and replaced it with the old. -Xathros
  14. Perfect! Check the address - that should be the new one - looks like the replace worked as it should have. -Xathros EDIT: The above reply was to your previous post. I suspect you have an ISY-99, in that case, you want Firmware version 3.3.10 as that is the latest and final version for the 99. At some point, you may need to upgrade to a ISY-994 for support of newer devices as the 99 has reached its end due to insufficent space for larger firmwares. Ver 3.3.10 should work with your new Switchlinc Dimmers but will not work with the latest Keypadlincs that are shipping now. What progress bar are you referring to? The download or the install ? -Xathros
  15. After the replace ran, do you still have the new device listed or just the old one ? -Xathros
  16. The Add New Device should work as well. Just a slightly different procedure with the same end result. Using startlinking, the ISY waits to here a link request from the device and when it does, it gets the device type and makes the link. Are you saying the device you want to add is not in the list of devices types? What version of the ISY firmware and UI are you running? Also, what are the new devices you are attempting to add? -Xathros
  17. Hi Julie- You will first need to add the new devices to the ISY with temporary names different than those they are replacing: Select Start Linking from the ISY menu, then go to each new device and press the set button for 5 seconds (until it beeps). Then click Finish on the add dialog and wait for the ISY to complete adding the devices. Rename the new devices with temp names to help you id them in the next steps. Next, make sure that the old device(s) that you want to replace is NOT in a folder. If it is, right click it and select remove from folder. Then right click the old device and select "Replace with..." and select the replacement device added above. Keep in mind that to use "Replace With..." the replacement device must be of the same type as the device it is replacing or it will not show up in the list of available devices to replace with. Replace dimmers with dimmers, relays with relays etc. -Xathros
  18. Anytime. -Xathros
  19. Check the notification manager in the iPhone settings and make sure you haven't suppressed the Mobilinc notification. -Xathros

    The 4 Tap test is used with Dual band devices like access points to verify that they are in RF range and on opposite 120v legs of the power feed. Tap the set button on a dual band device 4 times. It's LED will start blinking. Look at other dual band devices. Any whose LED's are blinking are in range. The color that they blink indicates if they are on the same or opposite phase as the test originator. Look to the individual device's manuals for specifics on the LED color meanings. Access points generally have better RF range than your standard dual band device. -Xathros
  22. The micro module is small enough to likely fit in the exterior box. I see no need to move it back inside as long as your box will be weather tight. -Xathros

    Hi Don- Last time this happened to me, I found that one of my Access Points had locked up and needed a power cycle. I discovered this while attempting a 4 tap test. One of my AP's didn't respond at all. Unplugged and replugged and all started working again. Run a 4 tap test on one of your access points and make sure the others respond. Also, as oberkc pointed to above, are you seeing any status changes in the ISY from any insteon device? -Xathros
  24. Hi Jerry- Yes. The device usually used for this is an InlineLinc with Sense. -Xathros EDIT: Inlinelinc W/Sense appears to be discontinued and replaced with the MicroModule OnOff with Sense: http://www.smarthome.com/2443-222/INSTE ... ule/p.aspx
  25. Sounds to me like your server is requiring POP before SMTP. In other words, log in to check the incoming mail before you can send outgoing mail. You might check and see if it can be configured for smtpauth instead of pop before smtp. Otherwise, I'm using gmail smtp with excellent results. Might be an alternative for you. -Xathros
