  1. When you adjust the scene it doesn't need to update the sensor, only the device that it controls. I know it works because that's how I do it.
  2. I prefer a scene because I want it on instantaneously, then use a program to adjust the device on value to zero in the scene when I don't want it to turn on. I can post my programs if you are interested. But this would be easier if we could disable a device in a scene: http://udi.ideascale.com/a/dtd/Allow-disabling-a-device-in-a-program/83037-32911
  3. I thought you did get unlocked notification for each lock? There may be difference with how the 2 different brands report. You'll have to watch the event log to see what they report.
  4. If both are unlocked and one of them is then locked the if will be true.
  5. Allowing a program to disable a device would be a good feature that I've always wanted, so I created a request here: http://udi.ideascale.com/a/dtd/Allow-disabling-a-device-in-a-program/83037-32911
  6. Why not put them all in a scene and turn the scene on and off?
  7. You could create another scene with all the buttons as responders, then a program that turns that scene off if any of the buttons are on.
  8. Yes, to access the camera from outside your network. You can test tinycam without port forwarding using the ip address inside your lan. Thanks to everyone else for the other info!
  9. I'm sure those will work fine with the apps I mentioned. You can try on your internal network before adding a port forward for outside your network. I have the old version and they had dynamic dns configuration in them as well, but I didn't use it since I have a different way. It seems like a lot to setup port forwarding and dynamic dns, but it's not hard and there are lots of good post ls about it on here, and maybe a wiki article. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  10. The insteon cameras are just relabeled foscam's. There are a bunch of good Android camera apps. I use tinycam, but ip cam viewer is also very good.
  11. Yes mobilinc only supports Geofence on iOS. For Android you can use Tasker. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  12. The port is an issue, and not sure if you have TLS enabled or not. Try these settings: http://www.cox.com/residential/support/phone/article.cox?articleId=a8fb24c0-6440-11df-ccef-000000000000 server : smtp.cox.net Outgoing SMTP Port: 587 with TLS enabled 465 with SSL enabled and check the authentication box, if available 25 for no security Note: Cox does not recommend the use of unsecure ports.
  13. For sure. Thanks for making my point! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  14. Post ALL of your apple mail ISY smtp settings and I'm sure someone that knows apple mail will point out what needs changed. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  15. Everyone "gets" your request, you do not get or acknowledge that this request does not fit into a scene definition. If you would have pushed your request for a new feature instead of pushing for a enhancement to a silly limitation would get much further. What you see as a silly limitation, most see as a great feature. But with your vast experience in insteon and home automation, I'm sure that most are wrong. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  16. I would do a full reset, then restore device.
  17. Z-Wave wave is becoming very popular. I have deadbolts, thermostats, and multi-sensors. But no iOS, Android only.
  18. I'm pretty sure you can set the on level to zero for the scene, just not the local on level? I do this for some motion sensor controlled scenes and it has worked for me. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  19. Received my Trane's today, installed two of them and working great. Only issue was I could not enroll the second one that needs to communicate thru the first one, so I hooked it up in the first ones location, enrolled it, then moved it back to its real location and heal network fixed up the routes. Not enough time tonight to check if it works as a repeater for my locks, will test that when I have time to make sure it's robust. Thanks for the tips, very happy so far. Just need to sell the never used 2441THs since SH would not exchange them since I bought them over 30 days ago... Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  20. But if it can not be defined as to how it will work in all cases, then I doubt UDI will implement a function that only makes sense in certain situations. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  21. Which devices will it adjust? I have kpl buttons in scenes as responders with on level of zero to show the scene that it is a controller of has been turned off. I don't want it to turn on. I don't want to take sides either, because I would also like the ISY to have extra functionality on top of insteon scenes, but it's not as simple as it seems.
  22. Looks like another user is looking into it: http://forum.universal-devices.com/index.php?/topic/15079-Motion-Sensor-Low-Battery-Event-(or-lack-thereof) Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  23. I think I found the answer to my question in case anyone else is interested, ironically on the homeseer site from 06/05/2012: http://www.homeseer.com/pdfs/Z-Wave-Lock-Setup.pdf NOTE: All Z-Wave locks include a "beaming" technology that puts the lock into a "sleep" mode to conserve battery power. Because of this, only "beaming-compatible" devices can communicate with the lock. As of this writing, only devices with Z-Wave ZDK firmware v5.02 or v4.52 (or higher) can communicate with the locks. These devices currently include the following:  HomeSeer Z-Troller (v1.15 or higher)  Aeon Labs Z-Stick S2  Newest GE/Jasco Z-Wave products (look for "Schlage LiNK on packaging)  Evolve Z-Wave products (all)  Schlage LiNK light module  Trane Z-Wave thermostat  RCS TZ45 Z-Wave thermostat  2GIG Z-Wave thermostat  Cooper Aspire RF 5-button Scene controller Just ordered 7 of them on Amazon, thanks everyone for the info.
  24. I completely agree Lee, but it would be nice to have it as an option and the user could make the tradeoff.
  25. That sounds like an issue with your program that sends the sms.
