  1. Is there anyway to push Energy Meter Stats into the ISY from an external source ?
  2. I am writing it in python thus it will run on anything that runs anything line Unix, Windows ( kindle paperwhite, android :- ) I'll post updates when complete along with a github link when done ( the device should arrive tomorrow ) some code is up on https://github.com/evilpete/RainEagle it works although it is a bit primitive / simple

  4. I just ordered the rainforest EAGLE, according to the documentation there are two XML based data access methods web based via POST requests and simular via TCP socket ( continuous connection without HTTP headers) a script that harvests information to relay to a ISY unit should be trivial
  5. I'll take a look at this later today, and see if I can fix things I already have a Python API that works with both 3.3.10 on a ISY991 and 4.0.4 on a ISY994 The API is available at https://github.com/evilpete/ISYlib-python with the relevant Event 'subscribe' code is at : https://github.com/evilpete/ISYlib-python/blob/master/ISY/IsyEvent.py#L429
  6. I have foscam and Axis cameras and honesty the foscam cameras are not worth the hassle, I strongly recommend Axis camera's Here is a link to the wiki showing how to have a ISY react to and X10 or Insteon and trigger an event in the camera or have a motion event trigger a program on the ISY http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index ... _IP_Camera
  7. In Reference to your blog on Building a Smart Irrigation Controller and you comment about using the flex interface as a hack for polling a boolean value into the ISY, have you thought of using variables instead and pushing new values via the REST URL interface ( eg : /rest/vars/set/// )
  8. Jim, I have the same problem. Found that the lower case letters were the problem. Changed to upper case letters then I could save. Tim the MAC addr. must be both formatted with a dash "-" and must be all upper case. ( unlike with a colon and lower case as with most network hardware products and unix/linux based systems ) 00-01-55-12-2E-AC : Good 00-01-55-12-2e-ac : Bad (lower case) 00:01:55:12:2E:AC : Bad (uses ":" instead of dash "-" ) 00:01:55:12:2e:ac : Bad (lower case AND uses ":" instead of dash "-" ) 00 015512 2E AC : Bad (uses spaces instead of "-" ) in the past the ISY would error silently if the MAC addr was not formatted right and send out bogus WOL packets full of NULLS. They fixed the bug by asserting better input checking, it is possible that you may have some old entries that may need to be reentered.
  9. i was thinking having a line on the admin gui climate screen listing the time of "last update" would be useful. ( i've been debuging a program that turns off some lights in the morning based on time and current daylight )
  10. I've been getting a lot of weatherbug timeouts also, CLI-WBug: No Response from datafeed.weatherbug.com which is odd because I can manually connect to the RSS feed
  11. One thing I do in my "not home" program is brighten and dim lights with random(ish) timings, causing brightness "shift" between different area's of the house. I figure this will produce a move lived in look by (hopefully) emulating movement, while also saving power by keeping any lights below 100%. This script is setup to run for approximately an hour, I run it a few times from from sunset +20 till 11pm, alternating with a different script to keep the pattern from being recognized as a light time setup. If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Set Scene 'House Scenes / Delilah' Off Set Scene 'House Scenes / Living Room' On Set Scene 'House Scenes / Dinning' On Set 'Front Light' 40% Set 'Living Room Lgt' 50% Set Scene 'House Scenes / Hall' Off Set 'Dinning Room Light' 33% Wait 8 minutes (Random) Set 'Living Room Lgt' 36% Set 'Dinning Room Light' 52% Wait 20 minutes (Random) Set Scene 'House Scenes / Hall' On Set Scene 'House Scenes / Living Room' Off Set 'Dinning Room Light' 25% Set 'Front Light' 60% Wait 10 minutes Set 'Front Light' 90% Wait 6 minutes (Random) Set Scene 'House Scenes / Delilah' On Set 'Front Light' 40% Set 'Delilah Room' 52% Wait 5 minutes Set 'Dinning Room Light' 75% Wait 6 minutes (Random) Set Scene 'House Scenes / Hall' Off Set Scene 'House Scenes / Living Room' On Set 'Dinning Room Light' 33% Set 'Living Room Lgt' 36% Wait 30 minutes (Random) Set 'Front Light' On Wait 5 minutes Wait 12 minutes (Random) Set Scene 'House Scenes / Delilah' Off Set Scene 'House Scenes / Living Room' Off Set Scene 'House Scenes / Hall' Off Set Scene 'House Scenes / Dinning' Off Set 'Front Light' 55% Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') 'Front Light' is a 9w LED light set up for default indirect lighting near the front door/ living room.
  12. What are you looking to do ? I was able to integrate my Axis IP Cameras without any difficulty. I wrote a simplified howto for the Wiki page here : http://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/index.php?title=ISY-99i_Series_INSTEON:Networking:Network_Resources:Axis_IP_Camera
  13. I am getting the same error a lot also ( if 12->25 times a day is a a lot ). I dont think it's a problem but thought I would mention it just in case.
  14. The new Homepage is nice on my desktop but not as useful on my android phone. one note: I had a custom "homepage" on my ISY that was a copy of the original plus the ability to send X10 commands. After I upgraded I thought there was a bug when the links stopped working ( i figured it out eventually that the links changed )
  15. if it was lux you should get a reading of approx one lux or so on a clear night with a full moon.
  16. I am wondering the same..
