  1. Hello, I would like to install this on my Polisy running the latest release. Every time I to go install this to my next available slot, it throws this error and does not install. Please help. Thank you Error: Node server object missing uuid
  2. Hello, if this has been documented already somewhere else I apologize, I was not able to find it. With bits and pieces from reviewing various old posts, I was able to figure this one out without much to go off of so figured I would document it for anyone else looking to do the same or for anyone new to the Polisy for this pretty basic integration. My objective was simply to have good light bulb control for my lamps. Outside of a few lamps in my home, I exclusively use Insteon switches but have yet to find a good wireless bulb that comes recommended outside of Hue for integrating into Polisy. Assumptions: - Polisy and Hue hub are on the same local network, same VLAN, or firewall rules have been created to allow communication between these devices if on separate VLANs. Prerequisites: - A functioning (fully updated) Polisy on your home network - A Hue hub on your home network (although there are ways around this, I chose to use an actual hub for various reasons) - Hue light bulbs added to your Hue hub and confirmed to be working properly from the Hue app (get this completed first) - Be in close proximity of your Hue hub as you will need to press the button and then click a button within the ISY dashboard, so you will likely want a laptop for this step depending how close your computer is to the hue hub Process: - Log into PG3 from the launcher - Click on Node Server Store - Scroll down to find Hue and click Install - Click on your ISY Dashboard tab across the top so you are looking at your additional node servers, including your newly installed Hue - Click Details for your Hue node server - Press the round button on top of your Hue hub - Within 30 seconds, click Restart in your Hue node server - This will trigger it to discover all of the available devices/rooms/etc. configured on that Hue hub - Now you should be able to go back to your UD Launcher and open up the admin console - At this point, when the admin console started it's refresh cycle upon opening, it discovered the Hue hub and all associated devices, etc. that were discovered during the "button press phase" of discovery That's it... it's as easy as that. Again, this may be covered elsewhere however I was not able to find any simple, straight forward (new) install process... only older threads which seem to be prior to the PG3 node server for this integration. Things I like about this integration and Hue especially... it does NOT require you to create yet another login to some cloud service, etc. Additionally, it's all local control, no dependency on Internet or cloud services. I hope someone else finds this helpful, I am by every definition a beginner to Polisy and IoP, so please excuse any incorrect terminology. Thank you
  3. Thank you!
  4. I too would support this effort.
  5. Thanks Geddy... I'll tackle this after I get everything else setup and running the way I want/need it to, then I'll worry about this one. Appreciate the reply and info... I'm sure it's possible but not sure what I may be missing. I'll go that route in the near future and post my findings here when I do. Thanks
  6. So I believe the root of this issue is related to how the ISY launcher and how the Polisy itself are handling the network but I'll explain my setup. Mac BigSur 11.6.5 - Latest Java 8 update 331 My Mac is on my main trust VLAN/subnet which is a different subnet from my IOT VLAN/subnet (Polisy lives on IOT). I have the firewall rules correct to allow the Polisy Pro to freely communicate to my trust net unrestricted at the moment. I also have multicast broadcasted across these VLANS/subnets. I can get to the Polisy Pro via web browser no problem and have left the default port of 80 alone. I set the username and password as well for good measure. No matter what I do, the ISY launcher says Error - Not Found. Now, here's the interesting thing. If I move Polisy to my trusted VLAN/net and it's on the same subnet as my computer, then walla, it finds it and all is well. Is it safe to assume that there's some hard-coded network setting that is only allowing it to communicate on it's own local /24 and I'm wasting my time trying to get this to work across VLANs? Thanks in advance
