  1. It appears Kasa changed the structure for this outdoor Y plug. They used to have a name for the whole unit (parent) , with subnames for the two plugs (children). These are my xmas light switches so havent been used since last year. Testing them today, they only showed in ISY as the main unit with the two plugs greyed out. reflecting pgx. I since deleted them in the KASA app, and re-added them to the KASA app. Now in the Kasa app, they only show as plugs one and two. There is no longer a name for the "parent". In pgx, the old three names still showed: main unit, plug 1, plug 2. I was able to delete them by deleting the children first and then the parent node. After several restarts of hte PI, nothing changes; no recognition of the new plug 1 and 2 nodes, nor the parent name. I figure they changed the structure somehow so that the PI no longer recognizes that the children are nodes. so needless to say, ISY will be wrong as long as the PI is wrong. Any help? Thanks.

    Do you have Pushover? its a great app that can link to the Notifications plug in. Then you messages come across thru the pushover app and are easily customized and managed. the direction are quite complex but there is a "notifications for dummies" that between the imbedded directions under configure and readme combined should get you there. Once set up properly, a notification "node" will show up in your device tree and is selectable in a program to send a customization, which is essentially the text of the emails that you are trying to send. These are my notification Services from Pushover. This is an example program: Wind E - [ID 0226][Parent 023F] If 'WeatherFlow / Outside' Wind Direction >= 79° And 'WeatherFlow / Outside' Wind Direction <= 101° And $Wind_Direction_Trigger is 1 Then Set 'Notification Controller / Service Pushover WIND' Send Sys Custom With Params Content 32 Notification ID (ID=32) $Wind_Direction_Trigger = 0 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') The results in a weather message that comes from my "customization" section that looks like this: Resulting in a message on my phone that looks like this: (and yes I need to fix my typo in weather! lol) Once you get the Pushover set up and used to it, its works fantastic.

    Another option is to move to the Notifications Plug in and use that instead. Very reliable.
  4. If I understand your dilemma, you want to put in a seperate zone for an upstairs are, but dont want to run wires there ? How are you going to do a second zone? thru the heat ducts dampers in the basement? That is your first concern. Controlling both zones and the actuators is the next concern. Ecobee can do this if I understand correctly but placing one ecobee on the main floor where you have the current thermostat and then a second one in the basement, where the wiring is convenient, and then using a remote sensor upstairs that will control the thermostat placed int he basement. this article does a good job of describing this. https://homeinspectioninsider.com/will-ecobee-thermostat-control-multiple-zones/ and a great video
  5. ticket is open
  6. Nope.. tried those. nothing. Also UDM is also not connecting and the portal shows it as offline. Kinda in a BRICK situation here.
  7. have you had any luck? I am trying to upgrade a friends Polisy and it wont go back online. It is showing on our wifi as connected, but UDM and AC wont connect. have unplugged it a few times, have pressed the button twice quickly a few times.. nothing. any ideas?
  8. Similar here.. I convert serial to ethernet, run the ethernet from 2nd floor to basement, so its approximately a 50ft run. Plug ethernet into PLM.. No problems. Used a standard ethernet.

    There are two posts with the same issue / information..
  10. dbwarner5 replied to TROSEMAN's topic in ELK
    There are two simultaneous posts going on the same topic. The same advice is being given in both. thanks.
  11. dbwarner5 replied to DJonas's topic in ELK
    Yes.. tag it onto the IP address with a colon. The port is set in the ELK software for under the M1EXP. I cant remember what the default is, but I know I changed mine and then used it in the Plug in configuration.
  12. dbwarner5 replied to DJonas's topic in ELK
    Hmm.. I have two wireless devices and they show up as any other node. -Are yours working within the Elk environment ie: on the Elk program? -are they showing in the nodes on the PGX web page? If yes to both of the above, close the AC, restart the Plug in. After fully started and all nodes are found, then try to re-open the AC and see if they show. If no to the above questions, you need to start with the first and solve that. If no to the second question, be sure your areas are defined. I am not familiar with "Group". Lastly in the AC, these items may be grouped under a name that isnt jumping out to you. Go thru your "My lighting" slowly and look for any item that you can expand that may be where the nodes are. See below screenshot. I have three groups of elk stuff.

    Have you looked through and followed the directions on this page? https://github.com/UniversalDevicesInc-PG3/udi-poly-ELK/blob/master/README.md Host is the IP address of hte M1EXP Also be sure this box is checked. This is how mine is set up.. works great. User code is set up in ELK program.
  14. Only put the one you are adding into link mode. Do them one at a time for best success.
  15. **Summary: when pgx is rebooting, russound PI is NOT restarting correctly. A manual restart corrects the problem. Log is attached. I have been having some problems where PGX is restarting (separate subject and working with michel on it). BUT, what I have noticed is that when the Russound PI restarts, it only fills in Power and Source. The rest of the fields are empty until I change them. If I then turn a zone on, and then change the volume, then turn it off and back on, the correct start up volume will fill in, but none of the other zone fields. A restart of the PI thru UDM, corrects it as you can see. **Summary: when pgx is rebooting, russound PI is NOT restarting correctly. A manual restart corrects the problem. Log is attached.

  16. @Javi any input? thanks
  17. Didn’t work. I can place the empty tile on top but the paste command is still under that tile as well same for even trying to hit the disable edit mode pop up iOS. Nothing special about screen size. Will try rebooting the phone and see what happens
  18. Switched it to remote and it's working as expected.
  19. @bpwwer I just switched my EISY to wireless due to some other issues that I am working thru with Michel. As a result the Station node has only zero values in it for local. Tempest is working fine, data is reported to hub, Alexa, tempest app. Is there a fix or suggested work around for this? Thanks! Just saw this post you made a while back. Will try this in the meantime. If it's not possible to have them on the same subnet, you can configure the node server to use remote data vs. local data. It will then query the WeatherFlow servers for the data instead. The trade off being that you're now dependent on the your external Internet connection for the weather data.
  20. yes it is resolved! thanks!
  21. yes that is exactly what I am trying to do . If you go back and re-read my first post, look at the screen shot.. I CANNOT select paste, because it is "under" the existing tile on the page.. clicking it only clicks the tile. Cant execute the PASTE.
  22. I am trying to go UP a level.. a favorite that is in a folder, I want to have a copy on the top level favorite screen. that doesn't seem possible yet.
  23. @Javi I have a favorite that is located in a particular favorites folder. I would like to also have the same favorite located on my main home favorites screen. I have tried to use "Move to Favorites Folder" command. After selection, I navigate back to my main fav folder. At the top PASTE and CANCEL appear. However they are not "clickable" as they are underneath the favorites that are there. If I try to use the Copy Command, there is no subsequent paste option when I switch fav screeens. thanks. FYI.
  24. Looks like beautiful weather next week for the paddle!
