WeatherFlow purchase disappeared after PG3 update
Can't add much more to the title. Updated PG3 to 3.1.14 and WF node said disconnected and "not purchased" or something like that. Deleted the node to see what the store would say. Still prompting me to purchase again. ?

- Notification Setup using Network Resources
Thanks for the replies. This for one of six Portal accounts for six ISYs on my Android phone. All are on different email address's. One person has one Portal account linked to one ISY on his iPhone. No sub accounts. He can see the devices, programs, etc. on his phone for the one ISY we're both looking at. After setting up the API key and everything on my phone, the notifications come to my phone but not his. I don't know how to add his device to the list. Do I need physical possession of his phone and set his phone up the same way as the video instructions?- Notification Setup using Network Resources
Welp, I fooled with this for an hour or so. I was looking for something to replace email-to-text notifications for more than one person for one ISY-994. I was thinking anyone with UD Mobile logged into the Portal account for this ISY could get notifications. The doesn't appear to be the case. The API looks like it is attached to the app and not the Portal or ISY. Is that correct? If so, this isn't going to work for me.- Static ip or DHCP for ISY994i
I've always done it the way @MrBill does it and for the same reasons. I leave the device DHCP. I find it in the router and reserve the IP address I want it to be on. Reboot the device and verify it is on that address. I'm done. The vast majority of my devices are on a "fixed" IP in this manner--just a reservation in the router.- ST-Sonos installed on PG3
So this works OK. Just not very elegant. I originally used 5% increments, but that was too steppy. "Group" speaker volume affects them all. I only have one "everywhere" group. Bathroom was alphabetically first on the list. I have this run then embedded into my "exit" program. Sonos volume fade off - [ID 0018][Parent 0001] If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Set 'ST-Sonos / Bathroom' Group Volume 27% Set 'ST-Sonos / Bathroom' Group Volume 24% Set 'ST-Sonos / Bathroom' Group Volume 21% Set 'ST-Sonos / Bathroom' Group Volume 18% Set 'ST-Sonos / Bathroom' Group Volume 15% Set 'ST-Sonos / Bathroom' Group Volume 12% Set 'ST-Sonos / Bathroom' Group Volume 9% Set 'ST-Sonos / Bathroom' Group Volume 6% Set 'ST-Sonos / Bathroom' Group Volume 3% Set 'ST-Sonos' Pause All Set 'ST-Sonos / Bathroom' Group Volume 30% Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') The various status boxes on the ISY admin console for each speaker are all over the place when all speakers are playing. For instance, I have five speakers. Two show status playing; three show status N/A. Some other boxes are accurate; some don't appear to be. But all speakers appear to respond properly. The installation log (attached) shows many errors, but everything seems to be working ok. But I've barely touched it so far. Thanks Edit: If the bathroom speaker isn't playing, the volume fade part doesn't work on the rest of the speakers. Pause all does. I generally have all or none playing so this isn't that big of a deal. ST-sonos log.txt- ST-Sonos installed on PG3
Yeah, that was kind of what I was thinking--multiple steps down to zero. Then a stop and another program to set the volume back up where it was. When I leave I press the "exit" button, which turns all the lights off and stops all Sonos speakers. The music stop is a little abrupt. I wanted to smooth that out a little. I'll play with it.- ST-Sonos installed on PG3
Does it have a volume fade to off feature? Edit: Or a way to simulate fade to off? I didn't see that feature on Jishi's github readme file.- PG3 purchases show different ISY UUID on Portal page
Yes, that's all correct, and it's online. I did not migrate to IoP, and I'm using the same ISY-994 I always have. It's the only ISY on that account. I just figured it out. The UUID it is showing is my Polisy UUID. I found it on the ISY Finder since that now sees my Polisy for the first time. Thanks. Edit: The target ISY during purchase, and the Polisy ISY the node server it installs to are not the same.- PG3 purchases show different ISY UUID on Portal page
Now that I've gotten PG3 going, I attempted my first PG3 purchase. When I click on purchase on the WeatherFlow node server, it shows my ISY UUID. But when the ISY Portal page pops up, it asks me if I want to add a different ISY not found in my account. I tried different node servers. Always a different ISY and always the same different ISY UUID to add. I only have one ISY per email account. I cancelled the add to my account box, and the purchase cancelled. Thoughts?- New PG3 on Polisy, I'm missing something
Yep, that was it. Thank you! After all the sudo instructions, it upgraded the frontend, but the backend was still showing 3.0.19 and not connected. I did a factory reset. Same. Then while I was poking around, poof! Everything indicated 3.0.61 and connected. Plus, Polisy shows up on ISY Finder for the first time. Thanks again to everyone.- New PG3 on Polisy, I'm missing something
FreeBSD polisy 12.2-RELEASE-p6 FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE-p6 r369564 POLISY amd64- New PG3 on Polisy, I'm missing something
I didn't think to look at the version since I just installed it. I've also tried updating a couple of times. I showing I'm on an even older version of 3.0.19 I tried all three of these upgrade instructions in putty and a couple of restarts: sudo pkg update sudo pkg upgrade (will update all out-dated packaged) or sudo pkg upgrade pg3 (to update just PG3) sudo service pg3 restart I received no errors or updated files. It returns all repositories and packages up to date, zero candidates, and your packages are up to date. I'm still on version 3.0.19- Are Insteon devices worth anything now?
Agreed. Sometimes it's just best to sit on your hands.- New PG3 on Polisy, I'm missing something
No, but I just installed PG3. PG2 works fine and is up to date. I did a sudo pkg update on PG3 a couple of days ago, but nothing changed that I could tell. I just tried a one-click update on the front recessed button. No change.- New PG3 on Polisy, I'm missing something
Yes, Hue shows it installed on the dashboard. I reinstalled the Sonos node server, too. They won't run, though. When I click restart, the node server restarts and almost immediately shuts down. Both have the same behavior, and both logs look the same to me. Full of same errors, but I don't know what the culprit is. They also both show up on the ISY-994 admin console under node servers. Before I installed PG3, I poked around the forum and saw both of these worked on PG3. I have a feeling I'm doing or not doing something stupid. Thanks Sonos log.txt Hue log.txt- New PG3 on Polisy, I'm missing something
OK, thanks for the help. I had uninstalled both node servers. I reinstalled the Hue node server. Same behavior. I attached the log. Thanks again. pg3_5-6-2022_13702_AM.txt- New PG3 on Polisy, I'm missing something
I have a Polisy running PG2, and an ISY-994 with a serial PLM. All working well. I was only running two node servers so I decided to delete them and use them only on PG3 instead. I'm keeping the ISY-994 going. Not planning on ISY on Polisy anytime soon. I thought I had read through everything, but I'm clearly missing something. PG3 sudo installed and started fine ISY found and ISY login information entered Went to the store and put my Portal information in Selected install for the Hue node server It installed fine and shows up on the dashboard and ISY admin node server list. But it won't stay running. When I restart, it starts and stops. It's status is disconnected. Can't add any Hue nodes When I go back to the store, it doesn't indicate the Hue Node server was installed, and I get "failed to get purchased node server" error flag. Sonos node server behaves the same way I'm guessing this isn't a node server problem, and is something more basic. ISY finder doesn't indicate Polyglot 2 or 3. I didn't know this was a thing until now. Polisy and PG2 have always worked fine. I can reboot the ISY from PG3. Any suggestions? What did I not do? I don't have to plug the PLM into the Polisy if I'm still using the 994, correct? I didn't with PG2.- Insteon Hubs Bricked? Insteon going out of business? What about switch purchase, what now?

So this topic kept going so I dug out the actual programs I have running in a hangar. The idea is when it's warm and humid, the concrete floor gets wet. So I wanted a program to run when "wet floor" conditions were met and turn on a big floor shop fan. The values that mattered were 60% humidity and 60 degrees. If both of those conditions or above were met, then I wanted the fan on. Otherwise, off. So this is to set the humidity variable Set humidity variable - [ID 000B][Parent 0001][Run At Startup] If 'Thermostat' Humidity >= 60% Then $Thermostat_hum = 60 Else $Thermostat_hum = 59 This is to set the temperature variable Set temp variable - [ID 000A][Parent 0001][Run At Startup] If 'Thermostat' Temperature >= 60.0° Then $Thermostat_temp = 60 Else $Thermostat_temp = 59 And this is to control the fan based on the temperature and humidity conditions. The wait 30 minutes is to keep the fan from cycling on and off too often when the humidity drops. It's not unusual for the humidity to be near 60%. Humidity fan control - [ID 0002][Parent 0001] If $Thermostat_temp is 60 And $Thermostat_hum is 60 Then Wait 30 minutes Set 'Floor fan' On Else Set 'Floor fan' Off- Program Notification Repeats Too Often
I have something like this I programmed a few years ago with an Insteon thermostat to turn a shop fan on at a remote location. It's still running. Since the humidity changed constantly and restarted the program every few minutes, I made one program to set a variable if the humidity value was 60% or above, and else if below. There is also an above or below temperature value to the variable. The next program just looked at the variable. I also put a one hour wait on the "if" if the humidity cycled between 59 and 60, which it did surprisingly often since the fan would almost immediately drop the humidity. I didn't want the fan cycling on and off rapidly. However, I haven't put near the thought into this that @MrBillhas, nor do I have his ISY ability. The OP just reminded me of what I did to solve a similar problem back then. Works perfectly.- Serial PLM discontinued according to smarthome
Thank you for this. I have six different ISY/Insteon installations that have been running for awhile now. I've never had a PLM failure, but I just ordered a defensive USB PLM. Cheap insurance. Kind of like if you take an umbrella with you, it will never rain.- Moving Node Servers from Pi to Polisy
I started over with Polisy after Polyglot crashed on a RPi after an upgrade. The Nest node server never worked again. FYI . . .- Insteon water leak sensor status - iOS
Well, I can't replicate the issue, either, now. They are all reporting status just fine. Sorry for the bother. It seems like it had more to do with the location rather than Android vs iOS, but I still don't know what the issue was yesterday. Thanks- Insteon water leak sensor status - iOS
Javi, thank you for your reply. No errors during sync. Yes, the admin console shows the last status. Not talking about the blue dot--just on or off. I selected status when creating the favorite like the other devices and scenes I added. After I made the previous post, I went out and had a couple of beverages. I then realized I slightly misstated my issue. I realize battery sensors don't state their current status. What I meant to say is the app is not reflecting the last reported status or any status at all. For instance, the admin console will show the last status the leak detector sent--as dry on, or wet off, or heartbeat, etc. The app just shows a couple of -- always. This is the first time I've ever I'm handing off an ISY system to a pending new owner, and I'm trying to simplify the system with favorites and clean up details like this for the wall-mounted iPad I'm leaving. It's a lot to digest for someone that isn't familiar. I won't meet the new buyer until after we close, but I hear she's not "techie." I don't have any favorites on my separate, personal setup, but I just checked the same type of water leak detectors on my Android phone app. They reflect status accurately and immediately so the issue must be specific to the iOS app. Water leaks are a big, big issue in my high-rise building lately. I have programs that alert you to leaks, but it would be nice to see that the leak detector is showing dry on, as in, if the button on the detector was clicked to show it is "armed" again to trigger the program for a new leak. Thanks again for your effort on this native UD app. - Notification Setup using Network Resources
