Let me make sure I got this right: Are you saying that a change in a folder condition if it's true or not, is NEVER a trigger. Or will it only not trigger a program thats inside that folder, but it would be a trigger for a program that's not in that folder. Which one is correct? Thanks.

Hi all, I have the following setup in my eisy programming: A folder with a condition set on it A program inside that folder whose IF condition is: If [Folder] is True My question is: When the folder condition transitions from False to True, will the program inside it evaluate and fire at the same moment (same event cycle)? Is there any known delay or timing issue between the folder turning True and the program's THEN block executing? I want to make sure the folder is acting both as a gate (restricting execution) and as an event trigger (waking up the program) simultaneously. Thanks

Hi @Jimbo.Automates I setup a 2nd Ecobee thermostat using the new Homekit method. Everything seems to be working fine. There is one big issue. Whenever the thermostat loses power, after it restarts, the thermostat will not send any updates to the EISY. Even though all the nodes everywhere, in the Admin Console, as well as in Polyglot will show as connected. The Ecobee app does show the status updates correctly. Doing a manual query on the thermostat node will update the correct status, but will still not update any future status updates. Only after restarting the Ecobee node server does it start to update its status again as normal in the EISY. I will PM you the log file. P.S. FYI, the way I am using this thermostat is, that it’s not really connected to a HVAC system. It receives power from a 24v power supply, and I am using ISY programs to control a window A/C unit, as well as a plug in heater, when the thermostat is calling for cooling or heating respectively. That’s why it’s a normal occurrence for the thermostat to lose power when I move it from place to place and plugging/unplugging it into different outlets. In addition, minor power outages is not that uncommon in my area, which would make the thermostat very unreliable, if I need to restart the node server every time after a power outage. Thank you very much.

Thanks

Hi @Jimbo.Automates Can you please shed some light on the above?

Hi, I recently learned that ecobee has disabled access to its API, and I have been reading about using the HomeKit plugin as a new workaround. I understand that the HomeKit method provides some support for Ecobee Comfort Settings, but I have a specific question about what that support includes. I realize that the primary purpose of Comfort Settings is to control temperature setpoints. However, ecobee also allows each Comfort Setting to specify which remote sensors participate. That participating-sensor functionality is the main reason I use Comfort Settings. My goal has been to use my eisy to control which ecobee remote sensors are taken into account at any given time. Since there was no direct way to enable or disable individual participating sensors from the EISY, I created several Comfort Settings, each with a different combination of included and excluded remote sensors. I could then use the eisy to select the appropriate Comfort Setting, which indirectly determined which sensors ecobee used. With the new HomeKit plugin, can I still use the eisy to switch among my existing ecobee Comfort Settings and have ecobee apply the participating-sensor configuration assigned to each setting? In other words, I am not asking only whether the HomeKit plugin supports the setpoints associated with Comfort Settings. I specifically need to know whether switching Comfort Settings through the plugin will also switch which remote sensors participate. Has anyone tested this particular functionality? Thanks

Thanks

What about Thermostat 1, is that currently supported?

There are two speaker hubs which are also offline. Thanks for your help.

One such offline device showing as online is the "NOT Freezer - GE Newest Basem" sensor.

Hi, I am having some devices that show as being online and the online state shows as connected, while they are really offline, and show up as such in the app. The last device update in the Admin Console shows a date of more than a year ago. TIA.

PM sent. If it's not currently possible to get the info automatically from the Yolink cloud, perhaps there could be an option to be able to input manually somewhere the remote name and button name for each corresponding digit. This would then show up as a list & sub-list in the Admin console/UDI Mobile app showing the remote name, button name, and the digit. I have no idea if it's possible, I am just throwing the idea out there. TIA.

I indeed did the learning from the app, I am fine with that. For now I setup 5 buttons in the app, for two seperate Mini Split A/C remotes. At the time that I wrote my OP, the only thing that worked was when I pressed “Send code 0”, it sent the first button that I had setup. Entering any other digit did nothing. Now I tried it again, and using codes 0 thru 4 does seem to work. Problem is that I don’t see a way of knowing which digit to use for which button. Would you be able to have the EISY show the name of the button? P.S. After writing the above, I figured out a workaround for now, that by checking the history log in the app right after sending a digit from the EISY, I can figure out which button that digit corresponds to. But that’s obviuosly not the best solution. If possible, it would be best to have the ISY import a list of the names of the remotes, with a sub-list of each of its buttons names, and be able to select it from the ISY to press that button. TIA.

Hi, First of all thank you very much for this plugin, its been incredibly useful. My question is, can you please give some instructions on how to use the plugin with the Smart IR Remote device? TIA
