Thanks so much..... I guess I was seeking a "5.3.0" type wording... but hey it is definitely on me I have a ISY994i ZWPRO so I should use the 2nd one right? is called udi_oadr_5.3.0.Zip Thanks again for your interest in clarifying for me.

Dear jdmcpherson Thanks so much for that reply. I did gather that's where I would find it...... I have hovered all over the very first link and the links take me to other pages but I could not find the one that would lead me to download the file. So in essence , I kinda need more details. Thanks

Hi Everyone: Ready to install the 5.3.0 firmware here. Could someone share where I may actually download the 5.3.0 file? . Thanks

Hi Jon, Issue solved..... well 95% In hopes that the following will help others here are the findings. Originally I was placing within the program a time frame either 90 seconds or 9 seconds for testing. When I reduced it to 9 secs for testing this parameter was in direct contradiction to the parameter set in ISY under options which allows you to time in 30 second increments being the least , 30 seconds. Once I started working with 30 seconds I was able (I couldn't before) to see the Kids Closet Sensor-Sensor go to OFF which is a condition for the program to work. By looking at the original program with a time entry for wait in the (Then).... it was not nullifying what it was set under options on the device. Now with the most basic program..... and disregarding if the lights are turned on by triggering the MS or by pressing the dimmer; once the motion sensor , senses movement the 30 second (or whatever you set up under options of the device in multiples of 1/2 minute) it will turn OFF when no more sensing takes pace. Program below. The only caveat is in the case that the lights are turned on, no one enters the closet; thus the sensor does not sense anyone...... the lights are remaining on. I found this a bit odd since the two (if) conditions apply and if I force to run an (if) they do turn Off..... If someone spots the reason, please let me know......in the meantime and since the likelihood of the lights being turned on without anyone entering the closet are very slim, i'll just have to feel mostly covered knowing that if the lights are left ON and someone was sensed the lights shortly after will be Off after no more sensing takes place. If ( Control 'Kid's Closet' is not switched Off And Status 'Kids Closet Sensor-Sensor' is Off ) Then Set 'Kid's Closet' Fast Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Jon thanks a million for your interest in helping Alex P.S. Here below is what the Level 3 reads after the above program is in place and I activate the lights manually without allowing the sensor to sense anything. Also notice that after 30 seconds go by... the program has not executed to run (If) and for the lights Off even though both conditions apply Lights being ON and sensor in OFF. I manually select in ISY to run (if) about 1 minute after I had turned On the light..... now with the program running it does turn Off the light. Remember all this time the sensor has been in OFF If at any time during the first 30 seconds would had be in ON (sensed movement).... it would have worked flawlessly activating the program and turning OFF the light: Thu 02/25/2016 03:26:07 PM : [iNST-TX-I1 ] 02 62 1C 98 1B 0F 11 FF Thu 02/25/2016 03:26:07 PM : [iNST-ACK ] 02 62 1C.98.1B 0F 11 FF 06 LTONRR (FF) Thu 02/25/2016 03:26:07 PM : [iNST-SRX ] 02 50 1C.98.1B 2A.1C.FC 27 11 FF LTONRR (FF) Thu 02/25/2016 03:26:07 PM : [std-Direct Ack] 1C.98.1B-->ISY/PLM Group=0, Max Hops=3, Hops Left=1 Thu 02/25/2016 03:26:07 PM : [D2D EVENT ] Event [1C 98 1B 1] [sT] [255] uom=0 prec=-1 Thu 02/25/2016 03:26:07 PM : [ 1C 98 1B 1] ST 255 Thu 02/25/2016 03:27:05 PM : [ Time] 15:27:08 0(0) Thu 02/25/2016 03:27:05 PM : [iNST-TX-I1 ] 02 62 1C 98 1B 0F 14 00 Thu 02/25/2016 03:27:05 PM : [iNST-ACK ] 02 62 1C.98.1B 0F 14 00 06 LTOFF-F(00) Thu 02/25/2016 03:27:06 PM : [iNST-SRX ] 02 50 1C.98.1B 2A.1C.FC 2B 14 00 LTOFF-F(00) Thu 02/25/2016 03:27:06 PM : [std-Direct Ack] 1C.98.1B-->ISY/PLM Group=0, Max Hops=3, Hops Left=2 Thu 02/25/2016 03:27:06 PM : [D2D EVENT ] Event [1C 98 1B 1] [sT] [0] uom=0 prec=-1 Thu 02/25/2016 03:27:06 PM : [ 1C 98 1B 1] ST 0 <<<<< Also attached is the image of the OPTIONS for the node "XXXXXXXsensor - sensor" in this case time shows 1.5 which would be 90 seconds

here is the Event viewer, I can barely make sense of it.

Hi Jon: Following your advice, I have grabbed the sensor at hand in order to ease all the testing I have changed the program slightly as you will be able to see below I have run a Level 3 report; attached. If ( Control 'Kid's Closet' is not switched Off And Status 'Kids Closet Sensor-Sensor' is not switched Off <<<<<<< I have tried changing Control instead of Status <<<< same result. Also on the Options of device I have checked On/Off, when before was unchecked for only On ) Then Wait 9 seconds Set 'Kid's Closet' Fast Off Run Program 'Kids Closet Off' (If) Else - No actions - (To add one, press 'Action') As you can see, I have reduced the time to 9 seconds. This is for testing purposes only. With the above program Lights turn ON by sensor or by dimmer..... even If the sensor is continuously exposed to movement.... lights turn OFF and immediately ON if sensor is covered (place inside a dark bag) lights remain OFF. So now I got to accomplish for the lights to remain ON while movement is being sensed by the sensor without first turning OFF. I guess I need to tell ISY in an effective manner that if the sensor , is sensing movement Do not turn lights Off. Note <kids Closet Sensor-Sensor current state is always ON> There's got to be a simpler way to make this work..... I just want the lights to turn off after 90 seconds except if the sensor is sensing movement for which another 90 secs should run.... and so forth that to take place whether the light was ON due to movement sensing or by pressing the dimmer....

Hi Jon, thanks As soon as I have access to change it up as you sugest, I will. I mean using sensor-sensor and control instead of dusk.down and status this one also for sensor-sensor... more soon.

Hi some help would be very appreciated.... In a closet I have a dimmer and a motion sensor so far when I turn on the lights manually <status changes to ON> the program that I set turns the lights OFF if the Kids Closet Sensor Dusk.Dawn is not detecting motion after 90 seconds. When the lights are turned ON by the Motion Detector (not using the dimmer or remotely) though the lights are ON the status stays at OFF likely because the wattage usage is quite LOW (LEDs) So I created a program that works fine EXCEPT that it is continually querying... keeping the system busy... and I can imagine that is not the best option. The fact that the system does not update the status when the lights are turned ON by the motion detector I believe is the culprit. I thought querying would solve the issue,because it would give a real status hence the program would do what is supposed to but while doing this I created a never ending loop of queries. Info: ISY994i PRO ZW Firmware v.4.3.26 Dimmer 2477D Dual Band Sensor Shows permanently ON on both the one called Sensor and the one called Dask.Dawn The Low Battery shows OFF Jumper 5 is connected Timeout minutes is 1.5 LED Brightness 100 Darkness Sensitivity 128 Sensing Mode: Checked (As motion is sensed) Unchecked (on/off Commands) so On Commands Only Checked Night Mode Program: If ( Status 'Kid's Closet' is not Off And Status 'Kids Closet Sensor-Dusk.Dawn' is not Off ) Then Wait 90 seconds Set 'Kid's Closet' Fast Off Run Program 'Kids Closet Off' (If) Else Set 'Kid's Closet' Query Run Program 'Kids Closet Off' (If) The last sentence of ELSE.......makes the program work fine with just one caveat it runs in loops nonstop keeping ISY always busy <><><><> If I take out the last sentence of ELSE (Run Program 'Kids Closet Off' (If)) if the lights are ON (by action of the motion sensor, which did not change to ON status in ISY ) works but only if I right click on the program, from the program list on the left column and I force to run the (If) otherwise lights remain ON. I have other controlled lights (LED Accent lights mostly) that consume very little wattage that almost never update the correct status but these are seldom left on by mistake.... while the kids' closet is always ON.... I have set twice a day Query all to minimize this issue but that wouldn't fully address the turning off automatically of these and other lights that really should not be ON for hours. Thanks in advance for your help

Hi I am trying to accomplish access control of the 2 outdoor entrances on each side of the house. I have tested with complete success the Triggerlinc though outside the RF conectivity works like a charm. Since th triggerlincs don't look like the type of device that would perform well outdoors specially in the outh Florida humid weather. (I wish Insteon had something of his sort "outdoor wireless RF riggers) In any case I thought of using the EZSnsRF as the bridge to handle the side access doors to the property... but when I read about peolple using it "Does not work with ISY-99!" - DAVID - KETCHIKAN, AK Quote found at: http://www.smarthome.com/31275/SimpleHo ... er/p.aspx.. If someone is succesfully using one of these devices to control multiple triggers via ISY and woks well I would like to know more about it. Thanks

Though for many Home Automation is not such a new thing..... I am of the believe that H.A. soon will be a standard in the near future.... the 2 biggest drawbacks..... is the historical price of the systems (Crestron, HAI, Elan, etc) and the close environments that reduced incredibly the market and made it unnecessarily ellitist. Now the DYS options... breakaway with those to paradigms.... but the key for these new DYS options is people like Michael Kohanim... he makes the difference between having a product that is great (ISY) and having a product that is great and helps its users grow as he strives to help and assist everyone in need wiith relentless care and well of knowledge that he pours for everyone not just to fix issues but to enrich ourselves with valid knowledge. If you are "shopping" for Home Automation controllers.... ISY is the product... but specially Mike... of UDI makes the difference.
