Both of you had me running around looking for a computer!

Just to add to Paul's comments the quick and dirty features of the portal are these in no specific order of importance. The portal costs $49.99 for a two year subscription. - Remote access, control, view error / standard logs. - Multi Login - No port forwarding - Network Module - Remote Upgrade - Manage multi controlers - IFTTT, Amazon Echo, support: Soon to come Honeywell TSTAT, Push Bullet?

Maybe the OP has a conflicting firmware / UI?

I can honestly admit when I used your method I totally forgot to turn down the pressure from 250 PSI and that board went flying right out of my hands. That was a real *Awww Sh^T moment . . . LOL . . .

Given there are quite a few SMD on the little board I would hazard to guess either the transistors are fried or best case there is some bridging / shorting present. Its easier said then done if you don't have a heated air gun / pencil to remove SMD parts. But you could use some Deoxit if you have any on hand if not some isopropyl alcohol and swab components? You have a 50/50 chance it might remove any electrical shorts in the hardware - if its a IC sadly you are SOL.

I will send you the link via PM - I have never had a leak sensor / trigger link ever fail though. I have however repaired the plugin lamp linc / and dual band ones but sadly didn't document that repair process. When I have more time I probably will as I had two of them fail and just waiting for me to repair.

Mark, PM sent to the KPL repair guide . . .

Hello Mark, That is a pretty unique and interesting problem you have listed out. I don't believe many of us have been using that exact setup per say. Normally people take a 6 and convert it to a 8 and no issues are seen. But you received a 8 KPL and converted it into a 6 but like you said the system knows its a 8 vs a 6 KPL. As painful as it may sound the easiest approach would be to change the bad one from 6 to 8. Then see if you can use the replace with from there - which obviously hinges on the fact the bad one will let you? NOTE: If you're interested in repairing the KPL I made an extensive how to for that very purpose. Let me know if your interested and I shall send you the link.

I would like to add that after my vacuum solder sucker station died. The method used by apostolakisl That blasting the solder off the PCB with my compressor has worked perfectly! I normally wouldn't go this route due to possible contamination from water, oil, etc. But since my compressor has a inline filter to remove the above it wasn't an issue. Watching those solder balls fly off is pretty funny - well besides having to clean up the residue which is a real pain!

No, but please do let us know what the white sticker says. Once its connected to the ISY Series Controller please do let us know what the firmware is stated as. Would be very curious to know if its different than v9E - Super Curious!

That would be great if someone has time to look up what that API call is and format it correctly into JSON NR that would be greatly appreciated. Really wish I was close to a computer instead of sitting here in the back seat watching snow fall.

Thanks Gary will update the program code and see what happens. On a related note since the OpenElec has been turned off to play files in sequence. Is there a command that can over ride that parameter just one time in a ISY Program then revert back to playing only one vocal file? So this is what happen as I was testing out a few programs to see what the results were. When I linked a KPL button as the scene controller to the activate the vocal program. I had included two separate files and when the button was pressed *Julie US* initially stuttered, stopped, then played the second file? It quickly dawned on me the ISY Series Controller will not wait (pause) but will simply do what it was asked for which is fire off the network resources in sequence regardless of how long the sound file is. Obviously with red face in hand I added a wait in between the two NR's and *Julie US* did in fact play the NR files as expected. My use case is to load some music files into the RPI and have different genres: Dance, Rock, Country, Classical, R&B, Top 40, etc. The problem is I will literally have to add in a wait statement based on how long each song is before the next track is allowed to play. Does anyone have a more elegant way to accomplish this? I'm not home right now so can't test but another possibility was placing those music files in a folder and (IF) there is a JSON command that can over ride the Open Elec play once vs play all that would be the ideal solution. Does that exist?

Information Only: If time isn't a pressing issue you can also try using the *Write Device* option in the programs tab. You have two options for a hands free battery operated update which is based on the heart beat status or detection of movement for the MS. Using this option assumes the battery operated device has the *Heart Beat* node. As older hardware didn't have this new feature . . . Motion Sensors only need you to pass by their field of view and they will auto update to. Also note that this feature highly depends upon your Insteon network having a strong RF mesh to all battery operated devices where ever they may be. Lastly, some firmware in the hardware require you to use a wait from 0-3 seconds. The only device which still requires a physical press of the button are the remotes. Which again if you have the correct *wait* in place when you press any button on the RL2 / Remote Linc they will auto update. Not very much success has ever been seen auto updating the older brick style Remote Lincs however.

Cold Weather - 35'C - [ID 033A][Parent 0335] If Module 'Climate' Temperature is -35 °C And Module 'Climate' Temperature <= -39 °C Then Resource 'Weather Voice - Cold Weather -35' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') I really shouldn't be programming this late at night when I had one too many in my system. My fuzzy brain some how doesn't think this program looks right? Can someone who is sober, sane, and firing on all cylinders look over this simple program for me. This *proof of concept* program is supposed to monitor if the temperatures are from -35'C to -39'C and if so fire off the custom voice announcement I created. For what ever reason the operators don't look quite right.

Thanks for the extra resources but sadly after doing a quick test. The ATT TTS voice is very much 1980 robot talkish which compared to *Julie US* makes it look and sound utter crap.

Hello Kevkmartin, Could you provide a little more insight how this is done showing some image captures of the program(s)? Is this done using Thanatars voice solution or something completely different? Also is this being done using 4.XX vs 5.XX firmware - Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

LMAO . . . I kid you not besides getting Insteon, ISY Series Controller, Brultech GEM & Dash Box. This incredibly powerful, accurate, and flexible TTS voice has truly brought my home to a whole different level! Right now I'm juggling back and forth appending my *Install Thread* with the details of this massive achievement in voice announcement and creating the 200 plus NR's to reflect the 250 plus voice announcements. Merry XMAS and do share some of the vocal phrases you created. I would love to see what others are using for scripted phrases as I believe I covered most of the basic, medium, to some advanced voice phrases. The one problem I ran into is some words just sound wrong when Julie US says them so I had to use the magic of abbreviations and the reverb feature to tame her to sound more human.

As I'm waiting in line at Costco the whole time I'm thinking what if one simple option isn't selected is actually stopping me from succeeding?!? [emoji35] I don't even unload the groceries and just jump out of the car as the GF is wondering WTF is he racing to do?!? [emoji848][emoji853] I fire up that RPi and see exactly one single toggle option not selected! [emoji19] I press and go - bam bobs your uncle!! [emoji847][emoji12] GF is wondering who the hell is talking while I'm screening and running around like a chicken without a head. [emoji41][emoji851] YES - Houston we have a successful lift off !!! [emoji847] Thank You . . . GF says she doesn't feel her XMAS present holds up next to this new feature enhancement to the home! Moving forward I will complete an entire setup guide on how this was all done so it's on one concise location. Daddies got a new toy!!! [emoji851][emoji41][emoji847][emoji854]

There isn't much left to be said here besides using the amazing solution and insight offered here by my dear friend Thanatar:

I'm at the gym right now killing some calories. [emoji35] I'll check those settings and report back what happens upon my return. Thank you again for the continued support and guidance and will document all of these steps for the next guy. [emoji106][emoji4]

I must be missing something obvious here because using the web browser results in a OK also like the test NR did. Yet there is no sound coming out of the connected speaker attached to the RPi?

If you have a Insteon motion sensor you can base a program on the dusk to dawn node being activated. If you have the real fancy 5-1 sensor you could use the light sensor built into that unit too for the same objective.

Thanatar, Can you provide me the link which calls out the path you cited in your first post. I want to make sure there isn't a difference in the file path in my openelec vs yours.

Yes, I confirmed the phrase is exactly the same as the test file. I'm going to change it to one long word and see what happens. This shouldn't be that complicated but since I never know what the controller is going to cry about for all I know its a fail on the network resource side. I just don't know . . .

OK, what I have done thus far so please check off anything I may have missed. - RPi: I enabled both analog and HDMI in the program and confirmed sound is indeed heard on the HDTV and USB Speaker. - Confirmed the IP address of the RPi which is 192.168.1.137 - The test NR looks like this simply copy and pasted from your example and for the sake of doing it I added an underscore to the test file called Entry_MS_Low_Battery.wav just in case the system wasn't liking the space between the words. - When I press TEST for the NR I receive the expected 200 which I have appended in this reply. - I've initiated the NR in the dummy program just in case there was a difference in behavior still no joy. /jsonrpc?request={%22jsonrpc%22:%222.0%22,%22id%22:%221%22,%22method%22:%22Player.Open%22,%22params%22:{%22item%22:{%22file%22:%22storage/music/Entry_MS_Low_Battery.wav%22}}}
