Look up 20158 There are 3 within 10 miles of each other. All three are pretty close right now in low 30's. So I guess I dont understand what the 2.5 is as the same 3 in purple are show 1-3 not in the 30's. Thats what I dont understand. They may not match but thats 10+ times difference.

Then there must be different measurements because the site shows 31 now (Was 32) and that matches what weather apps say. So I am confused.

This question will show my lack of understanding of Air Quality. I was asked for the local AQI for my house. I went to https://www.airnow.gov/?city=Hamilton&state=VA&country=USA and got 32 as my AQI. They said should be 0-50 which is good Where in purple air is this? see screenshot

yes I was unable to stop it or restart it. Restarting PG3 has fixed it.

Setup- Running PG3 ping and IOP. Polisy is on a UPS. We have had both power outages and network outages but known network outage on Friday for about an hour Now nothing was updating. I have TWO logs. One before and one after restarting ping but I got the same thing. So I restarted pg3. after reboot everything was fine. So the issue may be with Pg3 but since pretty sure Bob did both the ping pg3 update and pg3 itself I am posting here. Feel free to move the post.Ping_8-28-2022_93603_AM.zipPing_8-28-2022_93603_AM.zip Ping_8-28-2022_94645_AM.zip I am getting errors uploading logs. will also send to you in PM Jeff

Fix confirmed!!! THANKS!!

I attached the last few min of the log where I am trying to get Node server updates done. I did not do anything yet other than log into pg3 and I got red message could not load node servers. I tried re-logging into portal no luck Tried another browser- no luck Rebooted PG3- same issue but they all do seem to be connected and working. And one even updated that needed an update after the reboot pg3-current.log

I am 100% sure its ST Inventory. Turned it off since yesterday and not one issue. Turned it back on just now and errors came back.

Thanks!!!! Hopefully there is a fix or workaround

I was told there was another post about this but cant find it. If there is I will close this and move over. on ISY on Polisy In ISY ADMIN, I randomly got ALREADY SUBSCRIBED for a while. Since updating with the latest Polisy update those continued but now the same type of errors with UD Mobile. A reboot of the ISY always clears this or you can wait it out (hours) I put in a ticket and was told that others have found the issue was ST Inventory. They said its not gracefully disconnecting sometimes when it connects. (If you want more info see the ISSUE on GitHub - https://github.com/UniversalDevicesInc/UD-Mobile-iOS/issues/65) So I turned off ST Inventory on Friday with no issues all weekend. I just turned it back on (Monday) and within a couple minutes I get errors. I can easily reproduce (more than random) with UD Mobile on iOS. Just force quit the app and run it and you will see an error. If you repeat the steps a couple times it eventually gets in. Turn of ST Inventory and the errors go away. Errors seem to be only on local network but thats because outside the network I connect using ISY portal which maintains a connection. I did try the 1 hour short and 1 Day poll for ST Inventory but that did not help. Within a minute of turning the Node server on the errors come back. For now leaving it off as I only use that once and a while and when I do need it I can turn it on, get my data, and then turn it back off. its not used in any programs.

I had written a program to tell me when any of my units show RADON over a certain percent. Tonight it warned me. I checked the real logs at airthings and it was not even close to bad levels. I checked the ISY and all of my units had nothing in the connected (the Node server said connected but not the individual nodes for the devices). I looked at logs and showed lots of errors. Restarted and now stuff is fine but got my logs before I did. Sorry but I was only in ERROR mode. Switched to debug for future. Airthings-C_7-16-2022_110235_PM.zip

Got this from Purple Air. I guess it requires a Node server update but our keys should still work. Dear PurpleAir API Users, We are excited to let you know that we will be releasing a new version of the PurpleAir API on July 18, 2022. This new API provides access to historic data that is now hosted on Google’s BigQuery. It is important to note this update provides no functional changes to our current API at https://api.purpleair.com, but rather adds new history endpoints. What updates will the new version have? We added features that provide access to historical data. You’ll find documentation within the API site explaining how to use these new endpoints. Before the 18th, you may test them here: https://june2022.api.purpleair.com. This preview URL will go away, so please be sure only to use it until the main URL is updated. What do you need to do? If you use ThingSpeak for historic data, you will need to migrate your code to use the PurpleAir API instead. The ThingSpeak service will stop working in or around August 2022. We encourage you to get familiar with and switch to the new API’s history endpoints as soon as possible before ThingSpeak is no longer available. Rollback capability. If you experience any issues with the new version, for a limited time, the previous version of the API will be available at https://rollback.api.purpleair.com. Look out for future announcements. We are currently updating our API Terms of Service and Attribution guidelines. Please look out for an announcement in the coming weeks. Thank you, The PurpleAir Team Disclaimer You are receiving this email because you have signed up for a PurpleAir API key.

Thanks for the mention I guess. Lol. I was going for the world record but I guess that dream is gone. Lol and I only update every 2-3 days not seconds. Lol

From what I see it basically does the same thing as pushing the hidden button one time (Update Packages) but I could be wrong. I dont think he wants us to SSH anymore See the email they just sent out.

I am in the same boat. I did what I was told in the past and it came back to bite me. The rules change here daily LOL

He told me its the new Python doing it

Heard from Universal Devices when you click on button and you get one LONG beep that means nothing to be done. You can verify because when its working all three lights blink. When done only the one light is lit (facing front farthest to the left) if there are packages to be installed you will get 4 short beeps when done. I am confirming because some people reported 6 beeps total and some 5. All of them said the first one was long. But if thats the case and you always get a long beep, how do you know if its done or not? I have emailed for more confirmation, but to be safe I would listen for beeps and check the status lights

I agree. They hinted it was coming!!!

One thing is was told to leave it alone until the update finishes so its nice to know. but the main concern is why am I not getting the 4 beeps now. Just one. Hopefully it just means no update but I cant find any posts or documentation confirming that.

actually your correct. Yesterday it was one long beep and then 4 beeps about 30 seconds or so later. Today its just one long beep. Did you try it a second time? I still think that means no updates. 4 beeps it says means update complete.

Thanks @Bumbershoot I am going to be in meetings a lot today so I appreciate you clearing up any confusion. I hope Michel can chime in and let us know what the beeps are. I also send them an email and if they reply there I will repost the answer here later. Its just good to know what the beeps mean so you know if there is a problem or not. I also asked for a way to let Admin console know. Its hard to hear the beep from my office!!!

Inside the ADMIN CONSOLE in 5.4.4 or later there is a button called UPGRADE PACKAGES. I ran it yesterday after Michel said DONT USE SSH anymore to update. (see my post about OS crash for his explanation) When clicking on this i get different results. There have been talks about this button but I cant find an explanation of the beeps other than 4 beeps and its done. If its on here I cant find it. So here are my results..... When done I got 4 quick beeps. That means update is done. I know that part. As a test today, I just ran it again and got one long beep. I waited like 5 min after and no more beeps. an hour later I tried again and a long beep. My theory is the LONG beep means no updates to be run? Everything is working. I just want to make sure I understand the beeps!!!

Got my Polisy back up and running thanks to Michel. So there is a feature ONLY in the non plus versions (and the new firmware) that has a MOLD field in the app. It alerts you if MOLD conditions are favorable. Can you add that? Again its NOT in the Wave Plus which is upsetting. Also I am going to get a View Plus eventually. Does it support it? Jeff

Mine has nothing to do with node servers. Or at least not using one. For example I have a button to turn off all lights in the house that is program based. I hit the button and waited about 10 seconds and nothing happened. I hit it again and repeated a few times. Gave up and went to turn off lights and then about a minute later they started turning off. I wanted the kitchen light on so I turned it back off about a minute or so later it turned off. I realized the programs were spooled and it was getting to each one. So I had to wait it out before I could have the light on. I know thats my fault for hitting the button multiple times but the first one should not have taken a minute to start.

SSH wont work if you SSH'd to do the updates. I have been doing SSH here for so many years. Read the post from Michel. He will probably have to help you get back in as he is me. Things will continue to work unless you reboot the system so dont make my mistake and talk to him before rebooting. As he said, and I have learned my lesson, from now on use the admin console to do all updates. No more SSH for updates.
