  1. Just want one unit at each location. Seems like such a simple desire.
  2. I saw that, but I need smoke/co wired combos
  3. My thoughts exactly.
  4. Wow. This looks awesome! Just started messing with a smokelinc, but not liking the limitations (not supervised, not zoned) its making me nervous. Count me as another one interested in support for this on ISY. I only hope they come up with a 110v operated version as well.
  5. Or you can get your certificate for 'ISY.whatever.com' (where 'whatever.com' is your custom domain), then add a CNAME record (isy) to the 'whatever.com' zone pointing to the hostname that is your dynamic DNS fqdn. Keep the TTL on the CNAME to the smallest value you can. This has worked flawlessly for me for many years, until I switched to dns.he.net (which natively supports custom domains and dynamic updates at no cost).
  6. I use dns-o-matic as a meta service, and then push to my custom zone hosted at dns.he.net. Has worked flawlessly for the last year or so. My 'router' (actually an Alix box) is running pfsense, it natively supports just about anything. However, I know many routers are starting to support dns-o-matic and others.
  7. That is true and correct.
  8. That's known as NAT 'hairpinning' (at least in the Cisco world). Most routers disable it, and many don't give the user any option to enable (or disable) it.
  9. Would the XML returned from a GET to /rest/nodes be easier to work from?
  10. Michael, Can you please clarify the "left" mode that remains? Was that a typo that you're still having issues with Energy mode (leaf) enabling/disabling itself even with an external 24V power supply? Yes, still had the issue. I gave up on the 2441th in the end after 2 replacements. Now running a Trane Z-Wave unit with zero issues, on the exact same furnace.
  11. There are certain home routers that share a private key (what Michel refers to as a 'global cert'). This is really insecure, since anyone can access the private key and then decrypt others sessions.

    Programming

    The other issue you have is you have "outdoor module is off," in the 'if' condition. This immediately becomes 'false' when the module is turned on by the 'Then' executing, causing the program to abort the 'if' and execute the 'else' - turning it right off again. Also, as others have said, make sure the 8pm says 'next day' as well. Michael.

    99i vs 994i

    The main issue you may run into eventually is many (most?) newer Insteon devices require firmware 4.x and later, and this will not run on the 99i. The common catch seems to be the KPLs - if you have to get one replaced, you will likely find the replacement will not work.
  14. Awesome! Thanks. Search in Tapatalk failed me on this one.
  15. Xathros, Do you happen to have the URL handy for a Foscam to do this? I have a bunch of those around that I've been meaning to add this functionality to. Thanks!
  16. Ooh - shiny new feature. Going to have to try this when I get home. My raw goto editor of choice is Notepad++. It can use plugins to add custom context highlighting. That would be neat... Might have to look at this.
  17. Belias, I want to add to the chorus of thanks. I had a very basic program running the mostly worked, but given the importance of this I wanted something more reliable. I now have my 2 sensors under your programs control, and took advantage of the Costco deal to get 4 more. Most of my potential leak locations will soon be monitored. Thanks again. Michael.
  18. That's a great deal. Thanks!
  19. My issue is I want dimmable, and 3700k-ish. I cannot seem to find that available. (Or rather 'my wife demands' would be more accurate..)
  20. No - or at least not yet. Rumor is once the Z-Wave changes are stabilized that this is the next feature in the pipeline.
  21. My first thought is to check that you have the timezone of the ISY set correctly. For instance, if it is set to Pacific time and you are in the Midwest, I would expect the variables to reset at 10pm local time. Second thing to check is any programs that issue an 'Irrigation Reset' command. That command will also reset the numbers. Michael.
  22. Can't really answer the main question satisfactorily (assuming browser interface is in use, you cannot remember the password with that). However, MobiLinc ($$) allows you to store your credential so you don't have to enter it each to time. Awesome app as well...
  23. Sorry to revive an old thread - but just got my smoke bridge and 4 new First alert Onelink alarms (two with CO - two fire only). This is what I did. I linked each alarm to each other. The last one I linked to the smoke bridge. So far - so good. On ISY - using 4.0.4 with the 4.0.11 UI I tried adding the device by it's ID. I got 'Unknown engine'. I clicked 'Start Linking' and pressed the button on the smoke bridge until the double-beep. This time - it linked to the ISY fine (although I got a comm error for some reason). I right-clicked the main node - and 'Write updates to device'. This brought the smoke bridge online - so to speak. Now - I got 7 nodes: NODE-Smoke NODE-CO NODE-Test NODE-Unknown Message NODE-Clear NODE-Low Bat NODE-Malfunction (Other reports I've seen indicate 3... not sure why I have 7. The smoke bridge is reporting v43). I have not had time to experiment with all of the conditions and triggers here - plus the wife is (already) getting annoyed at the loud testing. Does anyone have any good details of: Can I trigger a 'fire' signal on a connected and monitored Elk M1? (I have the Elk module) This is only for when the house is unattended (alarm is in 'Armed Away' mode) so I don't have to rely on a neighbours to call in case there is smoke when we are not home. What is 'Clear' about? Should I setup a state variable for 'Smoke Detected' - has 'NODE-Smoke' going on turn the state to '1'. Then have a program to wait for 'NODE-Clear' to change the state to '0'? I have heard that 'Smoke' and 'CO' issues a 'Off' for a clear - but 'Test' does not. Just trying to figure out how they all interact without driving everyone nuts with many, many loud tests.. I notice there is no write up on the wiki. I'm happy to collect information and write something up. Thanks for any info you have! Michael.
  24. Personally, after 2 replacements of the 2441TH, I gave up, got a Trane Z-Wave device that has functioned perfectly, via a Vera until ISY has Z-Wave. It has functioned perfectly ever since. Personally, Smarthomes attitude to this problem has caused me to always buy a Z-Wave device before an Insteon device if available. If someone from Smarthome wants to have me try a fourth device, I'm happy to try and report. It will restore my faith. Why is it its only the 2441TH that has difficulty, where no other stat has caused problems on my furnace.
