  1. @TriLife- Seems like parameter is #64 on the Aeotech multisensor 6 (undocumented - found on another site). And while the value is set to "2" for F when queried, I was playing around a bit, and changed to "1" for a bit, and then back to "2", and its now working in Fahrenheit. Go figure. Make sure the sensor is awake, mine is USB powered for now, so i was able to play around. Steve
  2. Thanks - hopefully you can leverage what is already working on the ISY zwave board (500)? Happy Holidays.
  3. Curious, @greensuit, how are you going to revert from the ZMatter board back to ZWave USB stick? Have been searching for the procedure. Thanks.
  4. yup- Also an issue with the node discovery. I remember this in the early 300/700 Zwave days - was hoping it was not the same pain w/new h/w - oh well. My other sensor is an aeotec water sensor - so its definitely C vs F across the board.
  5. Same here - @Chris Jahn - motion triggered, but did not go back to OFF on motion. I have the benefit of having a few of these Aeotec sensors, and added 1 to new Polsy + Zmatter, and ISY + ZW700 (current production). Looks like discovered nodes are also pretty different. One is battery, the other USB - not sure that matters. Also the ZMatter reporting in Celsius - (so far I have 2 devices associated) - cannot find a parameter to change that ... (shrug). ISY+ZW700 (battery powered) Polisy+ZMatter (usb powered)
  6. Similar deal when attempting to upgrade my Polisy - basically click the upgrade button in the UI, Java app closes, and nothing happens. Let it sit for >1 hour, not a beep out of the unit. I can open a ticket, or grab logs that will help troubleshooting @Michel Kohanim . Steve

    Same / similar error on iOS FYI. Basically the app is slow and you cannot do anything. Dialog something like : ERROR, Error Domain = NSURLErrorDomainCode=1005 "The network connection was lost"... @Javi - is this the same or something else?
  8. yes- I have had a Schlage HomeKit lock for a few years now. You can create any automation on lock/unlock you like with the ISY, based on the variable change or Homebridge accessory. I turn on a light - when unlocking as an example.
  9. You can use HomeKit automations . But I am not sure about locking / unlocking. I use the apple app for that, and trigger ISY scenes / actions starting at the lock. There is the ability to send a web post to change an ISY variable indicating lock close / lock open. This is done by creating a NEW Homekit automation in the Apple Home App. Select NEW Automation, next, when an accessory is controlled, select the lock, selecting LOCK/UNLOCK. Scroll down to the bottom, and select Convert to Shortcut. Select 'search for apps and actions", and select WEB. There is an HTTP post that you can create to set a state or static variable in ISY (you can find this in the forum/wiki). You will have to include a userid/password (downside). I personally use HomeBridge, and use automations to turn a light on/off to indicate lock status, and create routines using these triggers. Steve
  10. @Javi Just did a quick test and looks like this was fixed in ios 16 beta 4. Backup and restore worked fine.
  11. Just checked with the ios 16 beta 2, unfortunately, same problem..
  12. Looks like the file message box does not show on the bottom when attempting to perform a backup on ios 16.1, resulting in the inability to perform a backup. I have confirmed my phone running 16.0.x is able to perform a backup though. Anyone else see this? thanks, Steve
  13. I have been using a combination of Homekit automation, and a Homebridge "flag" lightbulb to determine the status of my HB locks. (as I believe i cannot get the status directly into ISY? - my assumption so far.) Recently, I have seen the Apple Homekit automation fail, and therefore the flag not be set, and program trigger misses as a result. Is there a more direct way to get the status of a Homekit lock that I may be missing? I am running Homebridge on RPI, ISY-Maker, and Homebridge ISY - to get ISY devices created / sync'd. thank you- Steve
  14. Apologies if this has been answered (I did scan the posts), but is there a way to switch the iOS favorites screen back to the list w/folders vs the block icons? (Same as in the ios appstore snapshot f/the app). I remember starting out that way, and am not sure if i switched a setting i cannot find, or it was a design change. Nice work on the application btw- looking very good. Steve
  15. Related question - is there a message / variable set somewhere if a network resource call fails? I have built a few as well, and was now trying build some resiliency and alerting in if things fail - Steve
  16. Yes- looking at programs. Thank you - I will mess with it a bit as well.
  17. Does anyone know if the latest ISY s/w supports reporting of scenes kicked back from these switches? I have one of these, and 2 other Zen22 dimmers, and i cannot seem to get the scene to report back, and act on it. Specifically the 2x tap. Nothing seems to show in the UI when i enable the scenes at the switch, and trigger. In the debugger it shows 2x tap, etc. thank you- Steve
  18. @jec6613 -- How did you get to that screen from the admin console? I cannot seem to find it.. thanks.
  19. Same here - lots of googling!! I was eventually able to get this up and running, but had to start from scratch (new Rasbian OS). The original documentation is kind of dated, and there have been revisions to ISY-JS, ISY-Maker, etc. I still have a mess, but was able to logon to the site. Truthfully, its not really that helpful, but i didnt know what functionality it had. You can get the same information by just running homebridge from a terminal prompt (with regard to the homekit paring code). I think the only thing that has not changed is Homebridge!!
  20. Thank you @Scottmichaelj, still no dice on the HB website at :8080. Seems to load ok, and recognizes - "Administrator successfully logged in", but site doesn't get off the logon page. I updated with new pradeepmouli/homebridge-isy-js as indicated in the link above And also updated using the new isy-maker referenced in that post.. homebridge-isy-maker@0.2.0. Are there logs I can look at? Searching myself as a next step too.. thanks
  21. Got through most of this, thanks for the good step-by-step. I am still having problems getting into the HB web server though - after installing the- (Part 5: Setup Homebridge Maker) it shows the logon screen, i use the defaults admin/admin, and it just spins. I went through the system-d setup as well, but it didnt work before i did that either. Any ideas? Logs dont seem to show anything except ADMIN successfully logged on. Running from Chrome on a Mac, or the browser on the Rasb. pI. Thanks!
  22. Similar problem, I tried a lot of things, and finally gave-up / put this on hold. Creative solution needed!
  23. In reading through this topic, it looks like Homebridge allows you to present your Insteon / Wave ISY devices to HomeKit. But what about home kit devices --> ISY ? If i wanted to get a notification of a HomeKit light turning on for example, is that part of the functionality as well? thanks, Steve

    Am I to assume that I need to take the voltage down from 12v to <5vdc for the sense relay on the iolinc? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
