OK, I have a test version that can be downloaded here. This version will have the necessary debug logging (once you set "Debug" level under the Homeseer tab). You can also set the logging level under "system Config" to "Notice", I don't need all the ISY details.

Ok, very sorry about the delay. Work has been rediculous. I looked into the code and it's my fault, I don't add enough logging. I'm on vacation next week and will cut a new version to add the additional logging and ability to change the login credentials.

So we need to start with a list of your devices. In NodeLink can you enable debug logging on the main page and on the HS device page (in NodeLink). After that, when you restart NodeLink it will print out the full list of devices returned on the ASCII interface. From there I can start deciphering what is what.

I can definitely add support for alternate login credentials. Unfortunately I don't run HS or an ISY anymore so it'll be more difficult to add other HS devices. I'm away for work most weekdays now but I'll send some info this weekend on how to get responses from HS' ASCII interface. Hopefully your devices won't be too hard to add.

NodeLink connects to Homeseer using the ASCII interface. It expects default credentials (don't know what these are now, I set this up when HS4 was beta). The login/pass used to be default/default.

That's pretty ridiculous if that's the case. Polisy should be blind to it. I've updated the firmware on my SiLabs 700 stick 6 times and zwavejs/HomeAssistant couldn't care less.

The ecobee is a great thermostat, hardware and app-driven software wise. But it is utter crap in other areas. ECO+ is truly a class action lawsuit waiting to happen in the US (we'll never see one in Canada). Their API is extremely thorough but absolutely terrible for home automation. They've been asked (screamed at) for almost 10 years to make a simple local API available for HA use but completely ignore it stating it wouldn't be secure or they don't want to risk performance of the stat. Yeah ok. They just want users to remain cloud connected so they can force things like ECO+ on us. Why they created non-stat products is beyond me. There's a flooded market for them and with their cloud-only based API (with terrible server reliability) well known to the HA community now, I just don't see it being successful.

This is a tech note on how to run NodeLink under Docker. This allows you too easily run NodeLink on a Synology or QNAP NAS. If you don't know what Docker is, this isn't for you. It's not intended to be a how-to. To create the image: docker build --rm=true --tag="nodelink-image" . To build the container: docker run --name=NodeLink -i --net=host -v [iNSERT YOUR NAS DIRECTORY HERE]:/NodeLink -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime -p 8090:8090/tcp -d nodelink-image Dockerfile: FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/runtime:latest RUN mkdir /NodeLink EXPOSE 8090 EXPOSE 2405 COPY startup.sh /usr/local/myscripts/mystart.sh VOLUME NodeLink RUN apt-get -qqy update RUN apt-get -qqy install wget CMD ["/bin/bash", "/usr/local/myscripts/mystart.sh"] startup.sh: #!/bin/bash if [ ! -e "/NodeLink/NodeLink.dll" ]; then # Download NodeLink cd /NodeLink wget http://automationshack.com/Files/NodeLink.dll wget http://automationshack.com/Files/NodeLink.runtimeconfig.json fi # Start programs dotnet /NodeLink/NodeLink.dll & /bin/bash

NodeLink currently supports the following devices: - Venstar ColorTouch Thermostats - Brultech GEM: supports receiving data from the GEM wi-fi or Ethernet module and has the ability to send the data to SEG or Emoncms. - Ecobee Thermostats - Generic Data (formerly ISYLink) - DSC PowerSeries Alarms - Honeywell (Total Connect Comfort) Thermostats - RainMachine Irrigation Controllers: supports receiving zone status from the RainMachine and has the ability to control zones. - ISY Variable/Program Logger - CAI WebControl 8 and 32 - OWFS (1-Wire) - Modbus TCP - MiLight RGBW Light WiFi Bridge - Honeywell Alarm Systems - Location Service (Geofence) - Tank Utility - Caller ID - Generac Controllers (genmon) - Flair Smart Vents - Hue Emulator (Amazon Echo, Harmony Hub) - Harmony Hub (Power Off Only) - Network Monitor - WeatherFlow (local UDP ) - Homeseer (Currently tested with Dome Water Valve, Aeotec Smart Switch 6, Homeseer HS-LS100+, Schlage BE469) - Internet Weather (Weatherbit.io)

Chris, I did Enviracom because there was an "pseudo-official" API and I had an IAQ that I wanted to automate. I know it's no the answer you want to hear, but I currently have no intention to write something for Total Connect. Reasons: - I've contacted them in the past and they have been less than helpful with supplying information - I generally don't do unofficial APIs and their official has been delayed for a year now - I don't own one - It's cloud based

DSCLink is a console application (runs on a networked computer) which allows communication between a DSC alarm system and an ISY-99i. The ISY Network Module is used to send messages to the DSC. The following additional components are required: - ISY Network Module - Networked computer running 24-7 w/ DSCLink installed (.Net 4.0 Client Profile on Windows, mono for Linux/OSX) And also either: - EnvisaLink 2DS or 3 DSC Interface Module or - DSC IT-100 (or 5401) communication module w/ serial to ethernet converter More info and downloads can be found here Revision History: v1.3.4 (2015-07-09) -
