You're right! Thanks for spotting that. BTW - rest command could be also in the same line as the URL. No need to use the "path" option. So if I am not using WIFI and using my Cell network and I dont have an SSL certificate - I understand this is a bit unsecure, below is the command I used but I again, error occurred. Is there an option to ignore SSL? HPTT Get: Server:Port https://username:password@test.dyndns.biz:2000/rest/nodes/40070/cmd/DON/

Yes, the rest command works on a browser of my tablet connected via WIFI. While I am learning tasker, I am not using fqdn so this is within my local network only. I tested the command on a PC browser, without any issue as well. To further isolate the problem, I tried doing a curl command on my linux machine and it just worked. curl -s -u username:password http://192.168.xx.xx/rest/nodes/40070/cmd/DON/ Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. I tried this and it is still not working: Server:Port http://username:password@192.168.xx.xx Path /rest/nodes/40070/cmd/DON/ Am I still missing something? BTW, this rest command works on a browser.

Hi, This is my first attempt on Tasker and it seemed I could not get it right. http://login:password@192.168.xx.xx/rest/nodes/40070/cmd/DON/ Any expert opinion on this? Thanks.

This is awesome! Thank you very much. Turning ON and and OFF lights now through my phone system. There's so much to explore now!

Based on the suggestion of MWareman, I tried using "curl" Asterisk: exten => 11688,n,curl(https://login:password@test.dyndns.biz:1234/rest/vars/set/2/88/1) Example (POST-Method): exten => _X.,2,curl(http://www.somehost.com/may_be_a_dir/file_to_call.php,postdata_var1=1&postdata_var2=something) exten => _X.,3,Wait(5) exten => _X.,4,NoOp(CURL-RESPONSE: ${CURL}) However, just trying ISY rest on a browser did not work. https://login:password@test.dyndns.biz:1234/rest/vars/set/2/88/1 I could not remember where I read about authentication. Need some assistance please. BTW, I am running the rest command from a remote site. Thanks.

Hi, Maybe the URL is not the right one. Do you still have the curl program that you've have incorporated into your dial plan you may be able to share? I am planning to have a "secret" option within the IVR. However, since I know the option, after keying in the option, sub-IVR can give options like 1- turning garage on ; 2- Kitchen lights, 3-etc.... Thanks.

Hi, I have this idea but I don’t know where to start. From Asterisk PBX, is there a way to send a Rest command to change an ISY variable content? What I am thinking is that by using an IVR, one can press an option and specific variable in ISY will be changed thus triggering a program to execute. Is this a good starting point? https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+12+Applications+REST+API Thoughts? Thanks.

I am sure you guys may have heard of this announcement: http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2014/05/27/apples-next-big-thing-your-iphone-controls-your-home/ Hopefully there's a way to integrate with ISY, eventually?

Thanks, Switches! It works the way it should.

Yes, I have been using @pcs.rogers.com. However, my concern was that one has to reply "Read" to get the ISY message. I also tried using Tropo and it sent "text messaging" without the need of "Read." Thus, I am thinking of using Rogers REST SMS API to send sms. If there's an equivalent command for Rogers that would be great. http://www.twilio.com/docs/api/rest Another option I am thinking of is Voip.ms http://wiki.voip.ms/article/SMS

Hi, Any who has tried sending SMS to Rogers number? Some details: https = Net::HTTP.new('www.rogerscatalyst.com', 443) https.use_ssl = true request = Net::HTTP::Post.new('/SendSmsService/REST_v0_91/sms') request.basic_auth SystemConfig.configForKey("NAME"), SystemConfig.configForKey("PASSWORD") request.set_form_data({'address'=>'tel:+16479989122xxxxxxx&+1416xxxxxxx', 'message'=>txtMsg}, '&') request.set_content_type 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' response = https.request(request) How do I convert this into an ISY networking resource? I am stuck on how to do this -> request.set_form_data({'address'=>'tel:+16479989122xxxxxxx&+1416xxxxxxx', 'message'=>txtMsg}, '&') Thanks.

This might help. https://github.com/petele/pyharmony/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/harmonyhubcontrol/files/

Yes, I was able to do with Foscam on the URL and did not receive any error message. Checking the get_params.cgi, I got the results as per below. I am using FOSCAM with Device Firmware Version 11.37.2.56. However, my ISY variable is not changing. Are you having the same issue?

One option I am thinking of is by using ISY Variable, triggered by Foscam alarm directly to ISY. Setting Variable to ON. http://192.168.1.4/set_alarm.cgi?user=test&pwd=password&motion_armed=1&http=1&http_url=http://admin:password/192.168.1.2/rest/vars/set/2/88/1 My issue is on how to reset variable to ZERO once alarm has timed out. Is there a way to best possibly do this? Or should I wait for the bi-directional feature of ISY? BTW - I am thinking of a simple way to do this instead of having a server in between. See this thread. http://forum.universal-devices.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=8666&start=30

This is great! Looking forward to it. Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Michel!

Hi Michel, You might be able to assist me as well. All ON happened just few minutes ago which also opened my garage. Luckily, I was home and I am hoping, same as Dwight, that it wont occur very often (especially in situation I am not around). Thanks

Hi, I am not sure if this helps. I tried doing a scene test since it quite difficult to catch the event since it has always been random. Here's the scene test.

This is driving me nuts. I have 1 scene that has been randonly turning on. It is not being used in any program at all, so I there's no possibility that a program is triggering it. Please let me know on how to isolate this issue as this only occur when I changed my PLM. Aside from "ALL ON" random occurrence (http://forum.universal-devices.com/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=13827), I am having the above issue which frustrates me so much.

Hi Seb50, Please see this thread to know how I had linked ISY and Venstar. http://forum.universal-devices.com/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=13230 Thanks

This is now my current setup: ISY FW: v.4.1.2 PLM FW: v9B

I have also instances wherein ALL devices turn randomly. The frustrating part was that my garage I/OLinc was also linked to a switchlinc. Thus, turning ON all devices randomly also opened my garage. Everything was so smooth with my old PLM until it gave up.

Hi, 3 weeks ago, I had to replace my PLM since it was not working (viewtopic.php?f=27&t=13627). However, with the new PLM is now exprience random "ON" for some of my Insteon devices. If there will be new firmware for the PLM, is there a way to upgrade my current PLM which is causing some problems now? Thanks.

No, it was not showing to be connected unfortunately. You mentioned that you have seen messages indication PLM failure recently, are we suspecting the main cause of the failures, if incidence is getting higher? Could it be possibly due to upgrading the firmware of ISY? Or maybe other factors? My PLM was perfectly working fine last night and when I woke up this morning, none of my motion sensors were working so it prompted me to check the system. I guess at this stage I have to replace my PLM.
