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

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

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

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

Zooz Zen21 on / off switch scene support
SteveT replied to SteveT's topic in Z-Wave - Series 300/500
Yes- looking at programs. Thank you - I will mess with it a bit as well. -
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

@jec6613 -- How did you get to that screen from the admin console? I cannot seem to find it.. thanks.
-
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!!

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
-
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!

Similar problem, I tried a lot of things, and finally gave-up / put this on hold. Creative solution needed!

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

Thank you Brian for the info. This is very helpful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

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
-
yes, Jon, I am familiar with the DSCLinc solution, it requires another module, and i was just looking for something very basic for now.. Thanks for the information though.
-
I am attempting to connect my IOLINC to a DSC alarm, and was wondering if anyone had a step-by-step wiring diagram or explanation of what needs to be connected. There are previous posts, but they are a little vague on the exact wiring side- I have some experience with the DSC, and can program the PGM output, but need the wiring. I know a resistor is required, I assume due to the 12v vs. 5v on the IOLINC? Thanks in advance!

I had the same problems and finally purchased a zwave tilt sensor and problem solved! Same price, a few brands out there ... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have the 2413s unit .. PLM green light went out, and software went into safe mode. Was wondering why a soft reboot would cause, perhaps just coincidental? Was working fine up to reboot... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
-
Thank you all - BTW, the PLM seemed to short out after a normal reboot of the ISY from the console. I found that peculiar - I am running the ISY with a separate power supply, but the PLM can also provide POE. Am I not supposed to run this way?
-
Thank you stusviews - I am looking for mostly a temporary solution while i get a new PLM. Do you know if will this delete all of my insteon devices? BTW, running v.5.02 .. Thanks, Steve
-
I guess it was just a matter of time.. also experienced PLM failure, but i also have quite a few Z-Wave devices on my network which i expected to keep working. Seems when the ISY994 enters safe mode, it cannot do anything else? Is this by design? I would think it would work without the PLM, and eventually, as my Insteon devices fail (seem to be 2-3 years on switches, this PLM was 4 years), i will replace with something more reliable, but ISY should function.. Thank you, Steve

Thank you to everyone for your replies. Some good ideas here to consider.

I would like to connect an I/o linc to my DSC system to monitor whether or not it's alarmed or disarmed, and take action based on that status. Has anyone successfully done this, and if so, where have you connected and with what additional h/w (relay), etc. Thank you Steve Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is there a way to check the status of this open/close sensor? I am using as a water detector as well, but would like to know before the battery goes dead for example.. thanks-
