This is actually quite easily accomplished. You can have any combination of "status" and "control " in your if statement that you want to use to disable the motion sensor (MS). For example: If you want the trigger to be, light is off, and I double tap the off, you would have this: test Copy - [ID 0313][Parent 0147] If 'Office Cans' Status is Off And 'Office Cans' is switched Fast Off However if you would want it to be a double tap on the on, when its ON, it would look like this: test Copy - [ID 0313][Parent 0147] If 'Office Cans' Status is not Off And 'Office Cans' is switched Fast On So the first decision is how do you want to initiate it. The second decision is how to you want to "re-engage" the MS?. Common sense would say, use fast off when off to disable the MS, which you would do in the THEN. A second program can watch for you to turn it fast on when off to reengage it. Or you can you use a timer, or you can simple press the off button if the MS is disabled. --> IF MS program is disabled, and switch is turned off, then enable the MS program. Tons of options. Just need to decide how you want it to work. Feel free to reach out if this doesn't make sense. In theory, an Insteon switch has six combos you can program it it to imitate a program Off + fast off Off + Fast on On + Fast off On + Fast on Off + off On + On

When mine went down last night around 630 pm eastern time, I eventually had to reboot my router to get it back online at about 830pm as it didnt reconnect naturally. After reboot it was connected as usual. No Alexa and on the portal showed offline as well las in UDM.

Ive noticed it as well.. Last night I had to reboot my modem to get it to reconnect to the portal.

I have the hue plug in.. works well. you should have no problem doing what you want to do.

I had looked into them, but decided to go with Yolink as I need the range to get the lake temperature back to the house.

Had forgotten about that. I prefer to concentrate as much as I can in the eisy to avoid double names etc.. but yes I have that skill. That solves yolink but not my web controller temps. I get my Tempest weather data that way as well. But overall variable integration would be enormous.. for example sprinkler times are all in eisy variables. thanks.

(the most important temp is the temperature of my keg in the kegerator!!)

Have been pondering this for quite a while as well. It's interesting that Alexa can read the temperatures of my thermostat via UD API integration and give me the actual temp, the set temp etc, but we cant get a variable value interpreted the same way. I have yolink temp monitors that I would like to be able to ask Alexa their values. Either directly or via a variable in Eisy, along with web control plugin temperature values around the house etc.

@Javi running 18.5 on iPhone with UDM 1.2.6 Whenever I click on a favorite and choose advanced status Configuration, the app pauses and then quits. Have restarted the iPhone, reloaded UMD.. no change. Please advise. thanks!

Are you waiting for me or am I waiting for you? No worries or hurry, just didnt want to leave you hanging if you were waiting for me. thanks.

@Javi this makes sense now.. I replaced my phone shortly after leaving my local residence. So when the app was reloaded on the new phone, it did not save the User info.... All worked fine until I returned home and it saw the Dedicated home Network and then tried to use the admin admin.. All set.. Glad we figure it out!! I have also replaced local with eisy ip and all is working as expected. Thanks! cheers!

Thanks @Javi A few clarifications from your post above "Based on the screenshot it does not appear the app lost local connection settings". YES it did. The screenshot was AFTER I had re-entered the correct username and Password and the connection resumed. " If you try to enable automatic detection but have already defined a WiFi network then the app will show an error saying you need to remove defined networks for Automatic Detection. " Yes I have my local network defined under System Network Relations. See screen shot below. "Note that it will always be more accurate and faster if you have a reserved ip and a defined WiFi network in UDM." I am not sure if I understand this. My Eisy does have a reserved IP address. Are you suggesting to replace the Local Ip Address with the reserved IP address vs http://eisy.local for better performance locally? See same screen shot below. "The likely cause for connection error is the app cannot connect to the eisy.local address. My suggestion is to add the numerical IP address in the app with an IP reservation in your router. If permissions were changed, it was the user or iOS which changed the setting, the app cannot change iOS permissions." Going back to the original post: I have been away from my local location for 2 months. Upon return, UDM immediately stopped working. I found the cause to be that the Username and Password in UDM had reset to Admin, Admin. Once I fixed that, I have had no problems, but then tried to enable the new switch which has led to the other questions. As you know, I am an experienced user. I DID NOT CHANGE the username / password, but it was reset. This is FYI only as I have everything working and based on your answer to the above will change the local address to the reserved IP. THANKS!

Have been away from my Local set up of a few months. Returned last night and immediately, UDM stopped working. No connection available was the error. Found that in the Local settings, my username and password had been reset to admin and an unknown password. Strange. Remote settings would not connect either, until I fixed this unknown change in the settings. But when tried to change the setting to "automatically detect local connection" I get the following error. Also in this process I found that under Settings on my iPhone, access to "Local Networks" under the UDM app was turned off. @Javi any idea what that error is and how to correct it so that I can have it chose local setting when available? Thanks.

@toptierweb Just to double check the obvious, some of the node servers load in as a "group". The controller is the Top level. Is there an arrow to click on the left side of the controller node to expand the "group"? If so if you click it, it will expand and show the other nodes. If this is not what you like for layout, you can right click and select Ungroup and all the sub nodes will move out to the main level.

@greensha What @Geddy suggested above is a highly underutilized ability. Having a text copy of my programs has helped me do simply program restores if something I change didnt work. It also helps sometimes for troubleshooting multiple layered programs / variables as it's sometimes easier to see them all laid out in text vs "clicking" and "clicking" back and forth. This should become a common practice. Whenever I back up my Eisy, I also save a copy of the programs. Takes 1 minute to do.
