Hi Billy, It seems that the mail server does not like your userid/password. Are you using the default mail server or yours? You might want to: 1. make sure your userid/password are correct 2. increase the timeout by 500 ms With kind regards, Michel

Hello Billy, Thanks so very much for reminding me. I had ordered it about 10 days ago and I still have not received it. With kind regards, Michel

Hello Joe, Control are basically properties of a device. i.e. Status is a control and so is Temperature, Heat/Cool Setpoint, etc. D3 and D11 are X10 house/unit codes and they should be listed under Node. User are basically tasks that cause a certain event such as: Web ... someone from the web did something Program ... a program causes this event System ... system generated events It's totally up to you how large your log size should be. Default is 3MB. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Moshe, LeeG is right on! The only thing other parameters are: 1. Grace period (Configuration | System tab) 2. Catchup schedules (Configuration | System tab) ... this will evaluate and run all missed schedules at boot up 3. Run at start up in the Program Summary tab ... causes the program to be evaluated and/or run at start up What I recommend are the following: Instead of using a specific time, use From To ... this way, enabling that Run at Startup will run this program for that time period With kind regards, Michel

Hello apostolakisl, We did in fact try this route about 2 years ago but abandoned it since we didn't want to compete with SmartHome's products. We may resurrect it but I really do think a Global Caché solution will be much more elegant and functional. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Jim, Apologies. What yo need to do is to go to Configuration | System tab and check the settings. First, try DHCP checkbox and see if that makes any difference. If it does, then we can figure out how to make it static. With kind regards, Michel

Hello someguy, No, actually ISY should provide you with an instruction dialog on the steps required to link your 2411t. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Jim, Apologies for a tardy reply. Is your ISY on a static IP address? If so, what is the DNS server you are using? The problem you are describing is because ISY cannot access the DNS server (Domain Name Service) which translates names to IP addresses. If you are using a static IP for your ISY, you should use the router's IP address as the DNS server. With kind regards, Michel

robandcathy, Part 1 depends on part 2 and the answer to part 2 is that I have not seen any such device. I heard some rumors of INSTEON temperature sensors but I am not sure in what shape/form they come (i.e. whether or not they are waterproof). With kind regards, Michel

Hello someguy, Did you get a dialog with instructions when you added your IRLincTX? With kind regards, Michel

Hi Brian, Unfortunately we cannot do that right now. With kind regards, Michel

Hello lawr1000, Thanks so very much for the details. I verified this as a bug and it has already been fixed for the next release. With kind regards, Michel

Hello someguy, I am glad that it worked. None of the new IRLinc TX firmware releases work with ISY and that's why SH has agreed to flash the older firmware (.49) for anyone requesting it. With kind regards, Michel

Hello lawr1000, You should be able to. Would you be kind enough to let me know what is your firmware (Help | About) level? Please also make sure that the device is indeed a dimmer and not a relay by clicking on it in the navigation tree and checking the title on the middle/top of the screen. With kind regards, Michel

Hi Ken, Not that I've seen/heard. With kind regards, Michel

Hello jwf, I can tell you that HomePlug (ethernet over powerline) has been tested and there does not seem to be any interference with INSTEON. With kind regards, Michel

Hi John, Does it have any communications interfaces (e.g. serial/tcp ip) beyond IR? With kind regards, Michel

Hello kingwr, I sincerely apologize for the problem. BrianH, Only at boot time does ISY know that the PLM is not responding and goes into safe mode. With kind regards, Michel

Hello spage, Apologies for the inconvenience. I think the problem might be file system related. Would you be kind enough to: 1. Telnet to your ISY (http://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/ ... o_Your_ISY ) 2. Try adjusting the scene for any one its members 3. Let me know if you see any errors on the telnet screen With kind regards, Michel

Hello wrdarnell, I would be delighted to provide you with all the development help you need. As far as the XML elements, they are ALL clearly defined/documented in: http://your.isy.ip.address/WEB/udiws20.ws . This WSDL is 100% consistent with all the REST/Web Services objects currently supported by ISY. As far as REST development, they are all defined here: http://forum.universal-devices.com/viewtopic.php?t=2252 If you do need further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me at tech@universal-devices.com . With kind regards, Michel

Hello billy, I am not aware of any API changes (or perhaps SH has not notified us and we'll be surprised by their next release) for the thermostat. Query is a proactive event which is initiated by ISY where as the status of fan, cool, and heat are simply group commands sent by the thermostat to its respective responders. With kind regards, Michel

Hello kingwr, Query button queries the following properties ONLY: 1. Temp 2. Cool setpoint 3. Heat setpoint 4. Mode 5. Humidity It cannot query any other attributes since the API does not provide for it. i.e. query will not be able to figure out the current Fan state (is it on or off) or whether or not the thermostat is calling for Heat or Cool. I will check into the humidity issue as soon as we get the new thermostat. I checked the HTML query page and, at least on mine, the query is behaving normally. With kind regards, Michel

Hi geekinc, Apologies for a tardy reply. I wanted to make sure ISY was still up and running and that it had an active IP address in the router. With kind regards, Michel

Hello bktong, Thanks so very much for the clarification. Heating/Cooling status is sent from the thermostat unsolicited. i.e. you cannot query it. when you say they are incorrect (not blank), do they reflect the previous status? or something quite random? The best test is to force your system to start cooling and make sure that ISY shows the status as cooling. Retry with heating, and ISY should show heating. Then try off and the status should be blank. If this is not happening, then there's surely a problem somewhere. With kind regards, Michel
