Interesting, thank you! Both emails are sent at the same time, down to the second, so I wouldn't have thought of that. But since I operate my own mail server, I can see in the logs that in fact the two emails are sent exactly 0.3 seconds apart: 05:56:18.268 2 SMTPI-001601([192.168.1.1]) [8211038] received encrypted, 849 bytes 05:56:18.568 2 SMTPI-001602([192.168.1.1]) [8211033] received encrypted, 849 bytes I guess waiting one second would do it. Thanks again!

eisy, IoX firmware & UI v5.8.0, Java 8 update 401 (today), MacOS 14.2.1 Regarding the attached program snippet, from a pure logic point of view, I’m thinking that if either one of the two “If” conditions is false, then the whole “If” condition is false, and therefore the “Then” step should NOT execute; if either one of the two “If” conditions is true, then the whole “If” condition is true (either/or), and therefore the “Then” step should execute. Once. NOT twice. Either the “If” condition is true, or else it’s not true; it’s binary, there’s no in-between! If either condition is true, then the condition itself is true…but only once; if neither condition is true, then the condition is false (once). Curiously, if I right-click on the program and choose “Run (If),” then I only get one notification, as expected. Am I missing something here? Why does the “Then” condition trigger twice, but only when auto-executed?

Yes!! I have the -A version of that sensor, and it works great with eisy and the UD Z-Matter USB dongle. I use it outside of normal programming times to turn on the lights when it's a particularly dark and dreary day (15 lux). Like you, I had never tried Z-Wave before, but installation is pretty much automated (though it took me a few tries to get all the details right).

Yes, I did. Inconclusive. Since the admin console seems to work fine notwithstanding the error dialogs, and apparently no one else is complaining about the problem, it doesn't seem worth the effort to try to track down the source.

Many thanks for both the specific answer, and the link, which is really useful for the future!

After a several deletions of Java cached applications and applets plus installation of IoX 5.8.0, I’ve resolved everything but the first item above, the “AutoUpdate Status/Authorization Failed!” dialog. Given the UD logo, I’m guessing it’s not necessarily a Java problem. Where does that dialog come from, what does it mean, and what can I do to resolve it?

Wow, that was easy, thank you! But how can I access the numeric percentage reading itself? I'd like to report via Notifications and email the actual battery percentage number.

eisy v5.7.1, Aeotec TriSensor v2.21 How do I access Z-Wave parameters? I know how to access node parameters (e.g. ${sys.node.n001_…}), but… I have an Aeotec TriSensor whose battery level I’d like to use in programming/reporting, but I can’t figure out from Z-Wave X-Ray what the syntax might be. Thanks in advance for any insight.

Responsible people and companies usually want to limit expectations and avoid over-promising. That’s a good thing! My guess is that you won’t see it coming, but you’ll hear about it after the fact. Patience!

Thanks for the insight! AFAIK there's only the security problem that MacOS won't launch an unsigned app (Java or otherwise) when double-clicked; instead one must right-click and choose Open (there's also an unnecessarily arcane way to do it via System Settings). Thereafter it launches via usual double-click. Otherwise, Java is supposed to be platform independent (but things are occasionally not what they are supposed to be!).

You can also right-click on the icon and choose Open from the contextual menu.

MacOS 14.2.1, Java 8 update 391 build 1.8.0_391-b13 (current). My laptop, running the same system and Java versions, produced only the “authorization failed” error and not the Java internal error, so I cleared caches yet again, and now neither computer gets the Java internal error. Sigh. I really hate reinstalling Java, but I guess I’ll have to bite the bullet. Per the (out-of-date) Home Automation Cookbook, I also tried https://my-eisy-ip-addr:8443/admin.jnlp, which I prefer because it goes directly to the admin console (since I only have one eisy). That produces only the “authorization failed” dialog on both machines, so maybe the desktop’s Java installation isn’t the culprit. Could the “authorization failed” be due to the eisy's self-signed certificate? Who knows?! Thanks again for your on-going interest!

Drat! Did all that, but still getting both errors. Insight/suggestions?

I'll try that on Tuesday when no lighting changes are scheduled. I presume that's as opposed to just rebooting from Configuration. Thanks again!

Thanks for the Christmas Eve response! Ugh, I did all that, but still get the same results. Guess I'll have to tackle Java next week. 😱

Not to answer my own question, but I also am getting this Java internal error dialog now on login. I can't tell whether they're both referring to the same condition, but again, everything appears to proceed normally. Mystery! Insight?

Wow, thanks, that’s what I was looking for! I discovered the Z-Wave/Xray menu item, but that didn’t have “Node Info”…the contextual menu did, thanks again!

How do I grab a value from a Z-Wave device? I have an Aeotec TriSensor and would like to include the lux reading in notifications. How do I grab it? I’m guessing something similar to “${sys.xxx…}” but where do I find that info?

eisy v5.7.1, Z-Matter dongle (11/23) After logging into my eisy, increasingly I get a dialog box which says “AutoUpdate Status, Authorization Failed!” That's not very enlightening! Nothing seems amiss, and after dismissing the dialog everything seems to work fine. Where is this coming from, and do I need to worry about it?

Maybe an update to the requirements for the node server?

Yeah, that did it for mee too, thank you! Who'da thunk it? Thanks again!

Wish there had been a trial version…

Thank you both! As I suspected, at 2.16, it's not current. I have the .otz file (ZWA005_TriSensor_US_V2.21.otz) and will try again to upload it via the contextual menu item Z-Wave/OTA Upgrade (despite the dire warnings; it didn't work the last time but didn't seem to do any damage either).

Will there be an update?

How do I read the firmware version of a Z-Wave device using eisy 5.7.1 and Z-Wave USB dongle? I just purchased an Aeotec TriSensor and want to ensure it’s up-to-date.
