Can anybody tell me how much power eisy uses when idle? Thanks, Nick

I am looking at repairing my old PLM because my new one (v2 hardware) isn't as reliable as my older ones. Keypad buttons, scenes triggered by ISY where out of sync with the new, yet they where reliable with the older ones; I also suffered from the dreaded all on (and all off) bug with a version 2 hardware even though they supposedly removed the commands. I am currently using an really old single band PLM with an access point plugged into it at the moment, while waiting to get my v1 hardware dual band repaired; The sad news is that old single band PLM works more reliable than my new v2 I got this year. -Nick

Take a look at this post: viewtopic.php?f=30&t=12454 -Nick

Looks to be a problem with Isy's /rest interface: /rest/nodes/ and /rest/nodes/, formated values for the properties (and property) are blank even though value (non formated) does have data, the web interface uses the formated values. Are you on the latest firmware? I am still running 4.0.2. -Nick

I am experiencing performance problems after using WOL. After two wol attempts isy is no longer loads my node list before timing out. Steps to reproduce: Test loading rest/nodes (mine normally takes ~5 seconds to load) Trigger wol via rest (or web interface) load rest/nodes, (this time it took ~11 seconds) Trigger wol via rest a second time load rest/nodes (times out) I spent much time trying different firmware versions before narrowing the problem down to WOL; The problem first appears in 3.3.4 and is still in 4.0.1, downgrading to 3.3.3 fixes the problem. Note: I have many devices, ~100, and that normally slows down my node list load times, the effect might not be as noticeable with fewer devices. -Nick

Is there an easy way to find out how programs many you do have? Looks like I have over 200. A lot of them are triggered by rest over the network. If isy supported nested if statements I could cut out over half of them. For some I could also change to using variables instead. I don't think having a large number of programs is necessarily a sign of problems, it depends more on rate of activity and how hard they work. -Nick

Hi P805, On the first picture the only error that is a real worry is the parse error loading jQuery, which would cause the rest of the errors. Basically the page isn't loading right. -Nick

I also thought they where a little too pricey, especially considering how rarely I would use them and my personal involvement in the web interface. Ad-supported or completely free? What's you thoughts on open source? (just curious, I can't work on iOS apps because I don't have a apple computer.) I always love to see free apps, honestly I am not sure how often I would use it though. Thanks, Nick

Try pointing IE or Chrome to http:///rest/nodes Does it give any errors, it should give a long list of nodes, folders and groups (scenes) in xml without any errors. You could try opening up the browsers debug console using F12 start by checking the console tab for errors; Then try looking at networking tab and seeing if it is requesting */rest/nodes and if it gives any errors there. Also to make testing easier, double check that local Caching is disabled in the isy web interface settings page. -Nick

Please try another browser or clearing your browser cache. Also note if you don't have any state variables it might give an error loading them, "error, Loading: /vars/definitions/2/" -Nick

For the web interface try another browser or clearing your browser cache. The browser might have cached a bad copy of the config. -Nick

I had some lookups where i was still able to telnet into ISY and issue a reboot command (RS); But that depends on where it's locking up and having telnet access. -Nick

Michel, I upgraded from the previous beta, 3.1.5. -Nick

Since upgrading, my time zone reset to California with no daylight savings time, and I have the following errors from my error log (duplicates removed). Fri 2011/08/19 09:56:23 AM System -100002 /LOG/A.LOG Fri 2011/08/19 10:00:23 AM System -110014 /CONF/42F95.REC Fri 2011/08/19 10:00:36 AM System -100002 /LOG/A.LOG Fri 2011/08/19 10:00:36 AM System -110007 0 Fri 2011/08/19 10:04:58 AM System -5 Start I already reset the time, but haven't done anything with the file errors yet. -Nick

nickcat, any luck with this yet? I understand the mosquito problem, A simple program similar to what I used to be running would look like this, If From Sunset - 60 minutes To Sunrise + 60 minutes (next day) And Module 'Climate' Temperature >= 50 °F Then Set Scene 'Outside / Outside Outlets' On Else Set Scene 'Outside / Outside Outlets' Off This will send the on/off command at beginning and end of schedule and every time weather bug updates. I had my Weather Bug update every half an hour (or 1,800 secs) You could try adding a rain rate condition, but I didn't since my closest station is miles away, and even a local one would probably take a little more tweaking (either way try it without it first). I now have a much more complicated program that only sends commands when it changes or status doesn't match and it needs to retry. -Nick

Number 2 is possible with a little work, add # then the rest URL for that node/device to the URL. a complete URL would look like: http:///web/index.htm#nodes/ or a working one in my case is http://192.168.0.239/web/index.htm#nodes/E 84 5A 1 Note: You might need to refresh the page after changing the URL. It also takes a second as it loads the config file first. You can find the node address by opening up /rest/nodes/ in the browser and searching. -Nick

In the mean time you should be able to see the name of the device or folder by looking at the title bar of most web browsers. -Nick

Thanks, I can write to my SynchroLinc again! Your take on IsyAjax Looks cool. One thing I noticed on a quick look: The home button will take back to your default page, If UDAjax is not default there is no easy way to get back to the main menu, and if it is default it will reload the page when it shouldn't be necessary. I suggest changing Home to Home I also noticed the lack of links to install the web app for the admin console. -Nick

Quick test, AT&T still seemed to work for me: http://www2.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php Though at first, ispeech.org sounds even better and claims to be free for less than a minute. They want to send you a password to your email, what limitations after that I don't know. http://www.ispeech.org/free.text.to.speech.tts.software To trigget, I have ISY network resources call web served PHP, which calls aplay in Linux (had to add web server user to the group needed for audio permission) I specify the folder to play in the URL (get), and PHP randomly chooses a WAV from the folder. -Nick

I am doing voice alerts using network resources to a low powered computer with radio shack 900 MHz wireless intercoms with aux input for music ect. I created WAV files with AT&T's text to speech web demo. I have groups of slightly different wording and strange sayings I randomly chose from so it doesn't get as repetitive or as annoying. I use it to alert for vehicle coming up the drive, going down, a couple deferent vehicle id's, custom door bell, and mail (if I can get the sensor working reliably). -Nick

Michel, Yes it is setting it to the right state on startup. The question is if a program is disabled and not set to run on startup, is ISY supposed to set the state on startup? In a previous version I think it started at false and stayed there. Sounds like the first, in which case there is no problem and I will re-write things. Thanks, Nick

I have had this problem for a few versions now. Program is disabled, and not set to run on startup. On startup it not executing like intended; However ISY is evaluating its condition and setting it to true, which isn't ideal in my situation. Is this intended? Thanks, Nick Program: If Program 'Sound Arriving' is False And Program 'Sound Leaving' is False Then Resource 'Capture Drive' Resource 'Intercom Driveway alert idd' Wait 30 seconds Run Program 'Sound Identified' (Else Path) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

I am having trouble writing/reading to some RemoteLincs, after a while, I get a failed to write links error. I have 2 RemoteLincs side by side one updates/restores fine the other doesn't (v1.0 works, v1.1 does not). Writing/Reading links, ISY looks up to all network communication for a while with no progress bars (the writing symbol doesn't disappear until it unlocks) or apparent power line traffic, telnet works but shows nothing useful. I also get java socket timeouts. From the error log "Wed 2010/12/22 02:24:21 AM System -170001 [uDSockets] 31 active/error 6" (number active varies) I tried downgrading back to 2.7.15 but shortly after booting ISY would lock, stop running programs, and responding to network commands the only thing that was working was ping (not even telnet); Also the only LED lit up was power. I was able to re-upgrade to 2.8.9 before locking up but the lockups continued until I restored to a backup config, I had to unplug the PLM and plug in a power supply in order to prevent the lockups long enough to restore the backup config. -Nick PLM v72, was working reliably used to program RemoteLincs to begin with.

Thermostat sub nodes, Heat Control, and Fan Control (Cool Control Probably would too) are returning formated value of 0.00 instead of off. (don't know about on) Status Request is clearing Heat/Cool state on the main node and maybe sub nodes. I can understand that ISY can't query this data and cant guarantee that is up to date, but is clearing it necessary? Thanks, Nick

Hi Michel, A little late, but .. Copy Scene attributes doesn't seem to work right for thermostats (V2); Set-points get swapped, and the mode doesn't change. Apply changes to all devices doesn't seem to do anything when changing thermostat, and gives a Request Failed error when changing another device in the same scene. This is all in the Admin Console, I haven't actually tested the links yet. Thanks, Nick
