  1. Awesome! Does that mean you actually heard back from Google? If the need help or testing let me know, I have a few. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  2. When I started adding insteon in our lake house, one of the existing dimmers, I'm pretty sure it was lutron, would flicker. When I replaced it with an insteon it did not flicker. A switchlinc dimmer at our home would flicker due to the cheap LEDs I had to use because of the size I needed. I changed the device options to enable LED on TX and they stopped flickering. Luckily the switch is in a location where I don't care that the LEDs in the switch flash. I don't remember why I changed that option, but it worked for me. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  3. The MIMOLite works great and provides status as well so it's a direct replacement of the IOLinc. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  4. I've not heard that anyone tried the 2+ yet, I almost got one but decided to just go with the one that has been verified to work. It probably will work but you never know for sure. For zwave coverage the ISY will need to be close to your garage or you will need more zwave devices like the aeotec siren to make sure. My ISY is in a cabinet in a room directly next to the garage and they see the ISY as a neighbor, but I do have a strong mesh as well with a couple sirens and 6 thermostats.

  5. I just replaced my IoLincs with Mimolite zwave devices this weekend and they work great. I already had good zwave coverage in my garage. I liked them because they were a direct swap of the IoLinc instead of using​ a separate device for control and status. I had been holding out because I want to install a security system, but that keeps getting delayed... http://forum.universal-devices.com/index.php?/topic/13768-Z-Wave-I/O-Module Sent from my Pixel C using Tapatalk
  6. UDI also has plans to add direct support for TCC in the portal, but I've not heard about any progress. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  7. Yes, and Harmony Elite with home control buttons to control ISY devices via hue emulator. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  8. Do we know if UDI was given one for testing and know that it works with the ISY? Big bummer that heartbeat does not seem to be there, hopefully better battery level instead of just a single low battery notification?
  9. The links to both manuals are listed in camera polyglot https://github.com/jimboca/camera-polyglot/blob/master/README.md Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  10. I have been using the original setup of these programs from: http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/11566-leak-sensors-a-suggested-complete-program-package/?p=93722 and suggested modifications based on the newer leak sensors http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/11566-leak-sensors-a-suggested-complete-program-package/?p=127646 and they have worked perfectly for me.

  12. The echo does have Bluetooth receiver, I have streamed to it from my phone. But this is really a forum about using the Amazon Echo with the ISY, which I don't think the OP has, so should probably go to Amazon for help. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  13. The cost of adding this ability to ISYHelper, was not much, and the benefit of a happy wife is priceless It's not used for huge scenes so I'm not concerned about the extra traffic. Sent from my Pixel C using Tapatalk
  14. Thanks Michel for the explanation, much appreciated. My comment was from past experience trying to ask for this capability. I look forward to understanding how multi protocol scenes will help with this issue!
  15. Wow Michel, sorry if I gave that impression that I was demanding this feature now. I have asked a couple times in the past and was told it is not possible due to how insteon works. I always discuss and make suggestions and never expect any current plans to be dropped. I will drop off the forum and not think about how to improve anything. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  16. Actually, that doesn't​ solve keeping the kpl is sync does it? If I say turn on group name to 20% the kpl controller won't come on? Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  17. Thanks, group is an option. But that is exactly what I am asking the ISY to support natively thru the portal. Or preferably with a rest command. Sent from my Pixel C using Tapatalk
  18. I'm not in the mood right now to hash it all over again. There are a few different scenarios and I'm busy Trying to watch NFL and NBA and enhance ISYHelper. It's been discussed a few times before. And gary, no need to post again after he did I got it. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  19. I am very confused on what you are trying to answer. I said I am aware why people don't like what I asked for, but are you trying to prove that to me again? Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  20. Yes, very aware and use it a lot. But that doesn't solve my request Sent from my Pixel C using Tapatalk
  21. And please nobody lecture on why insteon doesn't work that way! I completely understand and appreciate and use that ability, but also want a way for it to work for what I am asking as well
  22. I've asked for this many times but get denied "because insteon does not work​ that way". I want this because for example I have a lamplinc "floor lamp" that is controlled by a scene where a KPL button is the scene controller. So if I add the lamplinc to Alexa then I can fully control the brightness of the device, but of course the KPL does not come on when the floor lamp is on, so I can not turn off the floor lamp with the KPL. So instead I add the scene to Alexa so the KPL can be used to turn it off when Alexa turns it on. But now I can not control the brightness, expect with dim and brighten commands. This is the main reason I still use ISYHelper, because it allows setting all scene devices brightness levels directly when the scene is the main device thru Alexa. It could be done if UDI chose to, and make it an option to control a scene as a group. But insteon doesn't work that way... Sent from my Pixel C using Tapatalk
  23. No worries, sorry I can't think of a way for the Harmony to push an update any other way than to fake it out with a device thru the hue or WeMo emulator. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
  24. Yes, I think my tranes are listed as neighbors, but the don't repeat secure messages, if I remember correctly, but I am not positive. I know​ the multi sensor will not foreword since it's battery operated. I don't have any of those other devices, and just rely on a aeon siren to repeat a secure messages for my locks.

  25. My trades work fine as repeaters to other tranes, but not sure if the work for schlage looks since those need the secure mode, so I used aeon sirens... Sent from my Pixel C using Tapatalk
