  1. Hi Xathros, I am querying "A" on a KPL8 via program. Thanks, Antonio
  2. I am using a Keypadlinc to control the behavior of programs. I noticed that a Query command resets the status of the On buttons back to Off in the ISY. The buttons in the physical Keypadlinc remain on, but I understand that. I need a scene to turn them on/off from the ISY. However, I don't understand why the Query command resets the status of the On buttons back to Off in the ISY. Thoughts? P.S.: This behavior occurs on both 4.0.5 and 4.2.18
  3. Thanks much. That is what I was looking for. I just embedded "${sys.node.19 42 85 7.ST}" in the customized email body.
  4. I want to, at a specific time, send out an email with the status (On/Off) of the 8 buttons of a Keypadlinc. Suggestions? Thanks.
  5. I have an application where I need to provide a "Contact Closure" or low voltage Input to the ISY-99 when there is no power in the house or the power is unstable. This assumes, naturally, that the ISY-99 is connected to an UPS. Given the above, the I/O Linc is NOT an option. The "TriggerLinc INSTEON Wireless Open/Close Sensor" is not an option either because the (Dual Band) Insteon PowerLinc Modem would not have power. Connecting the Insteon PowerLinc Modem to a UPS doesnt work either because Insteon signals do NOT travel well THRU the UPS and the whole Insteon network becomes unreliable. I can think of the following options: 1) Send Infrared signals to the ISY-99. I have no idea of how to do that, based on a contact closure or low voltage input. 2) Use an Arduino to send a REST command via Ethernet to the ISY to change a variable. 3) Use a CAI WebControl to send a REST command via Ethernet to the ISY to change a variable. Does anybody have a view or suggestion? Many thanks!
  6. Does anybody have any experience using a data acquisition HW interface (probably connected to USB) which via a program running on that PC updates ISY variables using the REST interface? Thanks much.
  7. When a folder's condition turns into true, are the programs within it immediately executed or simply enabled? When a folder's condition turns into false, are the programs within it stopped or simply disabled? Thanks much.
  8. Hopefully, the pseudo code below explains what I am trying to do. The light switch in the room affects the thermostat settings, but differently if it is day or night. My code does work, but with three programs. I wonder if anybody has a better way of achieving this? Thanks much in advance Program 1 - Control If From 6 AM to 10 PM (same day) Then Enable Program Day Disable Program Night Else Disable Program Day Enable Program Night Program 2 - Day If Status Light is ON Then Set Thermostat 70 (Heat Setpoint) Set Thermostat 75 (Cool Setpoint) Else Set Thermostat 65 (Heat Setpoint) Set Thermostat 80 (Cool Setpoint) Program 3 - Night If Status Light is ON Then Set Thermostat 70 (Heat Setpoint) Set Thermostat 75 (Cool Setpoint) Else Set Thermostat 60 (Heat Setpoint) Set Thermostat 85 (Cool Setpoint)
  9. This is great! Thanks so much for sharing. /2?A=3&p=1&X=1234 ==> Arms is "Stay" mode /2?A=4&p=1&X=1234 ==> Disarms Is there a code to arm in "Away" mode? Thanks again.
  10. Can I set the value of variables using the REST interface? Thanks.
  11. A SonicWall TZ 200 is a router with SSL VPN capabilities and it will allow you only to "extend" your home network by providing your work PC with a second IP address on your home network. To do that, you do need to install SW on your work PC. Even if that were allowed by your work IT group, I would not recommend (you dont want to take the risk of commingling your home and work networks). A SonicWall SRA appliance like the SonicWall SRA 1200 offers several different SSL VPN services, including reverse proxy. In reverse proxy mode, there is absolutely nothing that needs to be installed on the client (your work PC) side. It behaves 100% like a normal website. Cisco has similar offerings but I am not familiar with them.
  12. I use a SonicWall SSL VPN appliance for that very purpose.
  13. My ISY (and all of the routers and switches) are connected to a UPS. How could I use Insteon devices and write a simple program on the ISY to detect a power outage (on each one of the split phases) and email me? I attempted to use ApplianceLincs to detect the power failure (if appliancelinc is off then set appliancelinc on and send notifications) but this will send email only when power is restored (and I need to run a periodic query otherwise ISY will not know appliancelinc is off) Any suggestions? Thanks much.
  14. Is there a max limit on the number of Venstar Thermostat Adapters supported by ISY-99? Thanks
  15. Is there a way to hide devices on the web interface of the ISY-99? Thanks
