Hi Barry, If and only if Logitech would ever respond to our emails (sent 3 already)! With kind regards, Michel

Hello everyone, +1 ... makes things much easier. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Barry, Thanks so very much for the feedback. We have provided the same to Amazon and they were going to look at it. With kind regards, Michel

Hi dingding0220, In ISY Portal, click on ISY, and then click on Programs next to the Add button and then you can assign a spoken name for your programs. With kind regards, Michel hi dingding0220, Apologies. Those instructions were for ISY Portal. Sorry. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Dan, Please do be kind enough to send your error log to support@universal-devices.com. With kind regards, Michel

Hi dbuss, 1. Telnet to ISY 2. Login 3. At the prompt, type: RF /CONF/76.PRP With kind regards, Michel

Hi Leon, Thanks for reporting #280. Please note that we are moving away from Java and thus any non critical bugs will have a very low priority for the Dashboard and less so for the Admin Console. With kind regards, Michel

Hi stusviews, The problem is the combination of open and . Not just open/close. With kind regards, Michel

Brandon, There are a lot of what ifs in your questions. We do have plan to migrate away from Java. With kind regards, Michel

Hi dmazan, Thanks so very much! Definitely doable with one very major caveat: I am quite concerned that this will cause All On events! Here's the link to the issue: http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=INSTEON_Random_All_On_Events I am just thinking out loud here. Let's take the concept of the alias and modify it a little. What if - and only in the UDAjax - we made a modification such that the scene status (on/off) would be on if any of the controllers in the scene are NOT off? I will have to talk to Benoit, but since this approach - just like yours - does not have any impact on the backend, it might be easier to accomplish and without any adverse impact such as All On. With kind regards, Michel

Brandon, The application has nothing to do with browser support. You can always use http://isy.universal-devices.com/994i/admin.jnlp which puts an icon on your desktop and which is browser independent. With kind regards, Michel

Hello everyone, We heard back from the Amazon team. It seems that "Open" is not supported because of security reasons. With kind regards, Michel

Hi dmazan, Thank you for the clarifications. I think I am getting to understand. One more questions: "2. Same as if the scene is activated from the web interface. The scene is activated but the web interface doesn't show its status." Just to be clear, you would want the actual scene to be activated if and only if the alias is controlled from the web interface. Is this correct? Something like the following: If 'alias' is turned on then turn on the scene. If the alias is turned off, then turn off the scene. This way, the correct status for all the devices in the scene are reflected. Is this correct? With kind regards, Michel

Hi dmazan, I am so so so sorry. I still do not understand. Would you please let me know: 1. What should happen when ISY scene is activated from the web interface? 2. What should happen when the scene alias (controller) is activated from the web interface? 3. What should happen when the scene alias (controller) is physically activated? 4. In all cases above, what would be the status of the scene AND other members in the scene? With kind regards, Michel

Hi dmazan, Thanks for the clarification. I do understand what you are recommending but I do not understand how this would help the situation. i.e. let's say someone turns on/off one of the controllers from an ISY client. Let's say that this device updates the status of the scene. Based on this situation, now, the scene shows on while none of the members are actually on. I think a better approach would be to assign a status (only on/off) to a scene when a scene is activated from an ISY client. With kind regards, Michel

Hi ferdies, You can click on My Programs folder and create a condition that's never true : 1. Click on the If 2. Click on Schedule button 3. Uncheck All (next to Sunday, etc.) 4. Click Save You should get something like "On Never". This will disable ALL your programs. With kind regards, Michel

Hi dmazan, That's a good option. Alas, what you are suggesting will NOT work if you turn on/off the controller (in the scene) from an ISY client (i.e. web) then NONE of the responder will respond simply because in INSTEON you cannot act by proxy. In short, the status of the scene will not be what it should really be. With kind regards, Michel

Hi dmazan, Thank you. The main issue is that if you activate a device from the interface (not the device itself), the scene is NOT activated (this is an INSTEON feature whereby you cannot act as a proxy to the switch). If we were to do this, it would be even more difficult since the logic would now have to look for web activation (ST) vs. physical device activation (DON/DOF). With kind regards, Michel

Hi dmazan, Just to be clear, what you are suggesting is to assign a scene status IF AND ONLY IF the scene itself was activated through ISY? And, if so, how about Dim/Brighten and Start/Stop fade up/down? With kind regards, Michel

Hi dmazan, What if you have multiple controllers? Which one would you use as the status? With kind regards, Michel

Hi dmazan, We have had so very many discussions about status of scenes! In ISY, scenes do not have statuses simply because a scene is a collection of controllers/responders and each controller, may have a different set of on level/ramp rates for each responder. As such, it's very difficult to figure out status of a scene. With kind regards, Michel

Hi jimsander, Final stages of testing but we keep having bugs that we have to fix. Also, please do make sure your UI is also 4.5.1: 1. Clear Java cache 2. Go to http://isy.universal-devices.com/994i/admin.jnlp With kind regards, Michel

Hi ferdies, File | Backup ISY. If you have Z-Wave, then: 1. Z-Wave | Tools | Backup | Full 2. File | Backup ISY To restore: File | Restore ISY. If you have a new Z-Wave enabled ISY, then: 1. File | Restore ISY 2. Z-Wave | Tools | Restore With kind regards, Michel

Hi dmazan, Got it. Thank you. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Mark, That's what I thought. ISY does NOT have APIs to get ELK logs. With kind regards, Michel
