Changed to T-Mobile
@MrBillnot to be a nube but can you point me to what you're referring to above as "Network Resources"? Thanks.

Changed to T-Mobile
@SLP sorry. @Geddy answered better than I ever could have. Just as a side note, I had not saved my change to point to @tmomail.net which is why it was not working. Once I changed it AND saved it, my notifications are working again.

Changed to T-Mobile
Does Pushover need a Polisy installed to work? Sorry but this is not a simple installation process. The wiki instructions assume a lot I think. I guess I'll keep playing with the simple texting or change to email notifications which seem to work.

Changed to T-Mobile
Duh, never mind. I see the UD app now. My bad.

@MrBill for Pushover, do I create an E-Mail Gateway app? I don't see a specific ISY app in their list of apps.

Red Bar on Program Icon?
Thanks @lilyoyo1! I knew it had to be there. Just couldn't find it. Much appreciated.

Changed to T-Mobile
One other data point. If I send an email to 616XXXXXXX@tmomail.net, I get the text. It just doesn't work from my ISY program.

Red Bar on Program Icon?
I looked in the wiki but couldn't find the meaning of a program showing up in the Detail view with a red bar on the left of the icon. Green I know. Solid green I know. Icon with the red circle and slash I know. But I can't find red bar. What does that mean? Thanks.

Changed to T-Mobile
I just changed cell providers to T-Mobile and I noticed my text alerts were not coming through any more. I went into the Configuration page of my ISY994i and edited the text address. I selected T-Mobile from the drop down list and I think it wanted me to put in an address that was my 10-digit phone number followed by "@tmomail.net". So I have 616XXXXXXX@tmomail.net but it's not working. What am I missing? Thanks.

Clear Low Battery in 1st Gen Motion Sensor?
Thanks!

Clear Low Battery in 1st Gen Motion Sensor?
One of my 1st gen INSTEON motion sensors was giving me a low battery signal. I changed the battery which was about 14 months old with a new 9V battery. But the motion sensor still has the low battery as ON. How do I clear this? Thanks.

Search ISY by Address/Scene #?
Can I somehow search my ISY database by INSTEON device address? I would like to do this when I am looking at an unused INSTEON device and I don't know if I've added to the ISY or not. Also, how about searching ISY by scene number which is Alexa gives you when you look at how something is defined in the Alexa app.

Controlling Scene from Mobilinc HD, RemoteLinc, and Alexa
@MrBill so I ended up calling it "great room" in the spoken command and it works fine. Best compromise I could come up with. At least it works. Thanks for sticking with me on this one.
-
Controlling Scene from Mobilinc HD, RemoteLinc, and Alexa
@MrBill OK I'm getting closer. For grins, I deleted the scene LR Lighting from Alexa and re-added it. This time I gave it the spoken command of "blueberry". Now when I tell Alexa to turn blueberry on, it works! So does the off command. There is some sort of problem/conflict with the phrase Living Room. Not sure how to figure out what it is.
-
Controlling Scene from Mobilinc HD, RemoteLinc, and Alexa
I added another program to turn the scene off and gave it the spoken command of "living room off". It also works but it's confusing because you have to say "Alexa Living Room Off On". Ugh.
-
Controlling Scene from Mobilinc HD, RemoteLinc, and Alexa
Here's another possible data point. I just created a 1 line program that set the LR Lighting scene to On. I added this program through the ISY Portal interface to Alexa. I gave it a spoken word of "testing". I told Alexa to turn on testing and all 4 lights came on.

Controlling Scene from Mobilinc HD, RemoteLinc, and Alexa
@MrBill if you mean the buttons shown at the bottom of the attached screen shot, they work fine. Are these the buttons you mean?
-
Controlling Scene from Mobilinc HD, RemoteLinc, and Alexa
@MrBill no apologies necessary. I actually learned I could program the scene name in one way and another controller device in the scene to do something different. In my case, they're the same but that was good to learn. I did what you said and restored each device. No joy. I even took the 2 dimmer switches out and replaced them with simple on/off switches. One of the dimmers used to come on. Now the replacement on/off won't even come on via Alexa. i'm down to just 1 device of 4 working via Alexa when all 4 work perfectly via RemoteLinc or Mobilinc. I'm trying to set this up to make it easier for my wife but sure not getting very far.

Controlling Scene from Mobilinc HD, RemoteLinc, and Alexa
1st screen shot is LR LIghting Scene. 2nd is RL UP - 2 controller. The definitions look the same to me. The 3rd screen shot is from my.isy.io portal showing the spoken mapping for Alexa. Saying "Living Room" should run scene LR LIghting but as I started this thread, it does not act the same as turning the scene on or off from the Remotelinc, Mobilinc, or the Admin console. Not sure what to look at next.
-
Controlling Scene from Mobilinc HD, RemoteLinc, and Alexa
Here's another piece to the puzzle. When I tell Alexa to turn on the scene, the light that comes on ramps up and ramps down when I tell her to turn it off. When I click the RL2 button, it just does a Fast On or Fast Off.
-
Controlling Scene from Mobilinc HD, RemoteLinc, and Alexa
@MrBill Thanks. I knew about the changes for the RL2 button. I made a change yesterday to try to fix it but in order for the updates to write to my RemoteLinc, I have to put it all the way at the other end of my house which is as far away from the ISY as you can get. I was just lazy yesterday and didn't do it. Any other ideas on the Alexa control working differently?
-
Controlling Scene from Mobilinc HD, RemoteLinc, and Alexa
@lilyoyo1 and @MrBill a couple questions I'm not sure what you meant when you asked if the scene had been updated and click on the scene where? In the Admin console? I thought I knew my way around this stuff since I've had my ISY (on my 2nd one) for some time. I only have 1 controller device in the scene - my RemoteLinc. Anyway, maybe a screen shot could help. 1st screen shot shows the scene and the devices in it. The next shot show the Responders section. Does this help?

Controlling Scene from Mobilinc HD, RemoteLinc, and Alexa
I have a scene called LR Lighting that has 4 different lights in my living room that should turn on or off by this scene. 2 devices are dimmer switches and 2 are just on/off switches. I have the on my Mobilinc HD Dashboard view and tied to a key on my RemoteLinc keypad. If I use either of those devices, all the lights go on or off as expected. I also have this scene enabled to Alexa through the ISY portal. When I tell Alexa to turn on the scene only 2 of the lights come on. Same 2 will go off. One of them is a dimmer and one is an on/off so it's not the device type. Why is Alexa not getting the entire scene on or off? What do I look for? Thanks!

Z-Wave Motion Sensor Stuck On
I have a Z-wave outdoor motion sensor that seems to be stuck on. I tried doing a query in the Admin Console but nothing changes. Also the top level display for sensor that using shows the battery level shows nothing. Battery dead? See screen shot.

ISY Launcher from Remote Location?
Yes I do and that is the username and password I ended up using and it worked. Although once logged in, there was a popup that said I didn't have the ISY subscription. But I do and it's not expired. Not sure what is up with that.
