Very good points, neither of which I had considered. -Xathros

Doorbell Trigger Options
I guess I missed that or at least forgot about it after all the back and forth. My bad. -Xathros

Isy notification to iPhone.
Hi Michel- Prowl does not use user/pass but simply the API key for auth. I have many network resource rules configured for prowl that all work fine (after the first test fails usually). Here is what they look like for ref: -Xathros EDIT: Re: my comment about the first test usually failing, I haven't created any new rules on 3.3.3 or 3.3.4 so don't know if the first test fail is still an issue. Not that it was a big issue to begin with.

Question on a timer program
if status bathroom light is off then wait 10 minutes set bathroom fan off else If the light is turned back on during the wait, status changes and the wait is canceled. Should do exactly what you want. -Xathros

Doorbell Trigger Options
I've been watching this thread and wondering why all the fuss over a relay. I believe we already have a doorbell button, an IOLinc a bell/chime and a transformer. Maybe we could just reorganize a bit and have the button connect to the IOLinc input only and the relay output of the IOLinc close the 24VAC circuit from the transformer to the bell/chime. Set the IOLinc options to "Relay follows input". Advantage: No extra relay needed, Insteon control of the bell/chime for other audio notification purposes and Insteon notification of the button press. Other than a possible minor rewire, am I missing something here? -Xathros

Smarthome Camera
osurh18- Yes and that depends on what you mean by "work with". The only thing Insteon about these cams is that some of Smarthome's software packages have IP camera support built into them. They do not control the cams with Insteon network commands but rather over the ethernet/WiFi network. You can use the ISY network module and write some rules to do position control, enable/disable uploading etc. -Xathros

Installing Administration Console??
What I do is access my isy via its ip address like this: http:///admin/admin.jnlp or via it DynDNS external address: https:///admin/admin.jnlp Obviously replacing the with its actual IP or the name with it's actual name. This downloads an admin.jnlp file. Double click this file and it will download the admin console, complain about not being able to create a shortcut (this seems to be a MAC&Java 7 issue) then launch into the console without the ISY Finder. Exit the console and place the admin.jnlp file on the dock just to the left of the trash and to the right of the dock divider. It won't place anywhere left of the dock divider since it's a file not an app. Clicking this will launch directly into the console from here on out till the next release at which point you dump the jnlp, clear the java cache and repeat the above procedure. Hope this helps. -Xathros

Error...can not resolve local host
Yes. Ctrl x says Exit (This means hold down the Ctrl key and press x) You will see a question appear in the bottom section of the terminal. Y answers the question and says write Changes Return Accepts the existing filename and writes out the changes and completes the process. After that, you can quit the terminal and you are all set. -Xathros

Error...can not resolve local host
place the cursor on the beginning of the line that reads: 127.0.0.1 localhost Press Return then move the cursor up to the new blank line and start typing your new data in. Press tab between 127.0.0.1 and your hostname. -Xathros

Well then this would seem to indicate a problem with the AT&T mms gateway. -Xathros

Are you on a Public or Private network in the Network Manager? Have you tried turning off the Windows Firewall to test? -Xathros

Error...can not resolve local host
lake113- Password entry at the command line does not show anything as you type. So, when you get there, just type your admin password and press return. Idf correct, the nano editor will open, if wrong, it will say so. -Xathros

Michel- IIRC, He said he only had static text in the subject and body of the MMS notification and no errors showing in the error log. I haven't had a failure to send email/txt since 3.2.6. I also have been careful to ensure non blank subject and body fields. -Xathros

After the storm....
RichTJ99- Pull the airgap switch on the downstairs keypad for 15 seconds then push it back in. Be careful not to push it beyond flush with the frame or you may factory reset the keypad. Test again. -Xathros

Error...can not resolve local host
Hi Lake113- Setp 2 is telling you to edit the file /private/etc/hosts. That is done on the command line with the "nano" editor. After you get your hostname from step #1, type: sudo nano /private/etc/hosts You will be prompted for your MAC's admin password. (The same one for your user account likely) - enter that and pres Return That should look like: GNU nano 2.0.6 File: /private/etc/hosts ## # Host Database # # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface # when the system is booting. Do not change this entry. ## 127.0.0.1 localhost 255.255.255.255 broadcasthost ::1 localhost fe80::1%lo0 localhost Add a new line above 127.0.0.1 with your hostname: GNU nano 2.0.6 File: /private/etc/hosts ## # Host Database # # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface # when the system is booting. Do not change this entry. ## 127.0.0.1 Xathros-MacBook-Air 127.0.0.1 localhost 255.255.255.255 broadcasthost ::1 localhost fe80::1%lo0 localhost As I did above for my MBA - After that, type Ctrl-x Then y then Return That should do it for you.

Christmas lights
Hi Brian- If one works and not the rest, I would suspect a connection problem between the strands. Try changing the order in which they are plugged in. There must be power getting to the outlet to light the first strand so the problem must be downstream from there. -Xathros

Upgraded to 3.3.4 without any issues. No problems accessing the admin console from any of my MAC's. -Xathros

I'm sorry but I'm out of ideas here. I do exactly the same thing you are trying to do with no problems at all other than delayed delivery sometimes. Its for that reason that I moved many of my notifications to Prowl notifications instead of TXT/MMS. -Xathros

Repeat command?
I have a few programs that use a state variable to trigger the If section when there would otherwise be a blank if. If s.AutoTimers > 0 Then do whatever. This allows me to easily disable some/all of the auto stuff by changing the variable. Some programs require s.AutoTimers > 2 and some > 3. Since the mvar is a state var, anything using this in the if will trigger on changes. -Xathros

OK. Always a good idea not to post private info. What is the content of the subject and body fields? Is it identical to the TXT version? -Xathros

Emil Notifications
OK Nothing wrong in the program then. Can you post a screenshot of the MMS notification definition. Also, are there any errors showing up in your error log? -Xathros
