Teken, as always good info but if you are not doing a custom home build then some of these suggestions are "when pigs fly" [emoji200] as most builders wont hardly let you do anything outside their normal build process. I have built two homes (not custom) and both builders were very difficult to get any changes to the structure as they file with the city, engineering etc. Added outlets, conduit, cat6 placement sure. Getting deeper into things...doubtful. Maybe depends on your location and housing demand too. Right now theres a housing shortage so getting anything done they just say no and either you accept that or move on. The only way a house that "Teken builds" is a total custom job. Still good info, especially for anyone building a custom home and overall to think about.

Echo goes mobile. Hundai now, Ford & BMW later

Thank you for dragging me in as your partner in crime! [emoji57]You don't think I get into enough trouble here on my own, so you gotta drag me into more! Lol jk Its all good. [emoji41]Chill out and stop being a troublemaker and ranting. Hahah -
Teken has hit most of the major bullet points. Conduit being top priority if the builder is not willing to budge on the other stuff. If the house is being built depending on the supervisor you "could" make friends ($$) and do a few things here and there on the weekend.

I'm (was) Huddadudda now I am just me. [emoji3] I get into enough trouble on this forum on my own! Lol -
Doh! [emoji854]

Ha! I wasnt wrong after all! If email it's probably the security changes we have been talking about.
-
I would like to see more strings too as well as for the ELK Module.

Wow been a long time user and never dug in that deep. I get a ton of notifications and some of these things would be cool to add. Thanks for adding to my "to do list" guys! [emoji3] Edit: I did know about the sounds and priorities just never thought to use them in that way. Also @Paul like the use of the ISY icon, I'm going to copy you if you don't mind.

Thanks for that but I am well aware of how Pushover works. I actually developed a third party driver for RTI remotes to use the service. I just have NEVER seen a delay between email or API EVER, its ALWAYS been instantaneous. I been using it since it was launched. I love the service and highly recommend Pushover.
-
Must have missed that. Is there any advantage doing it via network resources vs email outside of the issues with SSL security issue now not working with email providers?
-
So first obviously you configure your Pushover account. Then yes you need to setup a Push and variables you want for each item. So for example say you want to know every time the alarm is armed, you could do a name "Elk Alarm Armed for Night" then in the configuration body put something like "ELK Alarm was Armed for the night on ${alert.date} at ${alert.time}" and save. Then you can have a program like: ELK Notify Armed Night Instant - [iD 001D][Parent 0027] If Elk Area '1' 'Armed State' is Armed Night Instant Then Send Notification to 'Pushover' content 'ELK Alarm Armed for Night' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Make sense? Hope this helps. Nothing needs to be done in the network resources.

More fitting Did you say sorry 50 times on the chalkboard?

Your buttons look perfect. It was dakall's post (#98) with a photo of his buttons and they are slightly crooked. I think thats what Teken and myself are afraid of. Your buttons look great. Have you done paddles yet for switchlincs? If so I would love to hear your thoughts and see pix. EDIT: What about something like this? http://www.ebay.com/itm/40W-CO2-LASER-ENGRAVING-MACHINE-MOSH-IDRAW-SOFTWARE-CUTTING-ENGRAVER-/131869960977?hash=item1eb40feb11:g:CnsAAOSwOVpXfc~A Also you think the 1000mW version of the Neje would be beneficial or just a waste? http://www.ebay.com/itm/311596179551?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT There is also these guys now http://www.ebay.com/itm/361612651887?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Have you found any that have larger trays? If so would adjustments need to be made to the template/instructions? Did you do any paddles, if so how did they turn out? I noticed this too and agree. I am OCD so it would bother me. Your no fun! [emoji12] Can't you say they are for the new 3D technology? Haha
-
So this thread was hot back in June but kind of cooled off. Anyone have anything new to add or share? How did your buttons turn out? Was it worth doing or is it too much trouble? I would love to hear some feedback.

Lighten up goofball. [emoji12] I havent had issues with DLI and the scripting ability is quite nice. I probably have 50 or more installs for clients without a single issue. So as I said everyones experience is different. UBI email support only sucks especially if your onsite and java management software for their routers and access points are horrible. The product itself works fine. Edit: for those who are not familiar with Ubiquity, they require a client PC with software installed (java) to access the access point settings. There is no "Brower" webpage like on other routers and/or access points.
-
Here we go again with this daylight savings bug mentioned a while back It was deemed not a bug. Hahaha
-
You crack me up. You say get a Ubiquity which has ZERO customer support (email online only) vs DLI who actually answers the phone. Guess it shows everyone has different experiences. I have a UBI AP Ill sell you!
-
FWIW I like Pushover as you can use it for many things and have different tones. Sometimes people are known to go deaf to certain tones. Its also almost instantaneous for notifications.
-
I use DLI as well as WATTBOX in my installs, both work well. I lean towards DLI but OVRC is nice on the Wattbox.

Can PING be used within ISY Programming to verify device presence?
Scottmichaelj replied to ISY4Me's topic in ISY994
I second the always on PC. Check out my review for the in the coffee shop section on the Azulle PC stick. Good price, low power, full Windows 10. Then just find a program or write script. Done. Time saved it worth paying the money. -Quantum Access LAN Windows 10 Fanless Mini PC Stick https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018GWVOGC/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_FCuMxbFJ6NJRD -
Not sure I understand what your asking. If you have the Elk module then all you need to do is setup a program or whatever you want and then map it to the echo via the ISY portal. Make sense?

Amazon Echo - Connected Home Feature!

Its only available to professional AV installers. I thought in my previous post I mentioned that, sorry. I own a AV integration company so I have access to RTI along with Control4, Savant and the rest. My preferred choice is RTI and I have developed a few addons to work with it.
