Ah, i thought PG3 was at 3.1.27. Guess not, thanks!

Pressed the update packages button, popup window asked for confirmation, said yes but AC says active. Is this normal? Previously window would disappear while upgrade was performed. I manually closed AC but Polisy never seems to upgrade. Im on 5.60 IOX and 3.1.21. I have pulled the power and rebooted but same result with upgrade packages. Interesting note the reboot button in the AC does in fact reboot the Polisy. Any thoughts?

Two posts solved my programming, thank you. Everything was completed in Elk RP, voice and beep. Used rules to trigger a task for voice while the rules handled the beep on and off. Used output state set by Polisy to silence voice and beep incorporated into the rule, eg if output ‘on’ don’t speak or beep for 30 Seconds. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction.

Okay, Failed miserably. I dont understand using network resources how to trigger the beep and the voice when the zone is violated. Any hint on the driver format to use?

Thank you!! Will start working on the solution now. Im on Polisy using the Elk node server.

Currently I have a wine cabinet door which is setup as a non alarm zone. I have written two rules in ELK such that when the zone is violated the keypads start beeping and another to turn off the beeping when the zone is secure. I would like to be able to use the UDI App to disable the beeping (in case folks have gone to bed) when I open the wine cabinet and auto enable after a short period of time. What would really be awesome is if I could get ELK to announce, 'wine cabinet violation' and beep at the same time..... Any thoughts as how to proceed?

I bought 3 of these for my sons chain pull blinds and the motors work great. The Wi-Fi/Alexa hub integration is flawless. Currently using smartenit Insteon relays with somfy curtain motors which are no longer produced.

Is it possible to have a Insteon keypad execute an Alexa command? Asking as curtain controller will respond to Alexa commands but would also like to be able to control each shade discretely via buttons. Currently have separate Insteon devices for each curtain mated to a curtain motor but if they fail there isn’t a direct replacement. The new curtain motor I would like to use is https://www.helloryse.com/ but they dont have an public api.

Thanks Mr Bill, will break into two programs as suggested

Have the following program to set a scene on if the time is after 5PM to sunrise. For some reason scene is always active no matter the time of day. So what am i doing incorrectly? Alarm Entrance Delay - [ID 0023][Parent 0001] If From 5:00:00PM To Sunrise (next day) And 'ELK / Jameson' Alarm Status is Entrance Delay is Active Then Set 'Welcome Home' On Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

Success! Thank to everyone and Merry Christmas.

Im in!.... Directions to follow?

Havent done it with ISY/Polisy but have used Putty previously. I have both the ip and port for the Polisy. When i open Putty and start session with 192.168.4.6 and 8080 i just have a green mark without any other characters....followed by 'remote side unexpectedly closed network connection' Next step?

Thank you….of course I’m a neophyte and don’t know how to execute sudo or where to find the update package…

I have initiated the upgrade packages, AC shuts down, Polisy left light remains on, Isy still controlling everything. Pulled power after about 15 min, Polisy boots up, one beep, left light on and all devices controllable yet still on 5.4.5. Thoughts on how to upgrade?

Okay, issue solved but will leave write up below in case it helps someone. The issue for me was I was trying to set and query the parameter on the main page... one would think this would work but it does not. I was able to set and query the parameters by right clicking on the first node, selecting zwave, set configuration parameters. The set and query function worked perfectly from there.... So would assume this is a bug?? BTW the 5-60 in parameter 3 is in minutes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Have installed a ZWave switch for my well pump. All is working correctly and Polisy added the device with no issues. I just have a few questions as to how in Polisy to set the parameters.... or at least they dont seem to stick. If I query a parameter 1-3 shouldnt Polisy return the value? I doesnt seem to do anything. Next assuming, dangerous, that when i select a parameter eg 1 and set the value to 0, I press Set Configuration, and then Write Changes, correct? If i then query parameter 1 it does not show the value that I set.... Also Polisy showing for each Parameter it is 1 Byte (Unsigned). I was under the impression you need 4 Bytes for an integer? A bit out of my depth of understanding at this point. Any help would as always be appreciated. The manual says it supports the following Association Command Class (3 Groups) Group 1 supports Lifeline, Basic Report Group 2 supports Basic Set and is controlled with the load load Group 3 support Basic Set and is controlled by pressing the Programming button Each Association Group supports 5 total nodes. Parameter 1: Product State after Power Reset Product State after Power Reset The following option values may be configured -: Value Description 0 Return to last state 1 Return to off 2 Return to on The manufacturer defined default value is 0 (Return to last state). This parameter has the configuration ID config_1_1 and is of type INTEGER. Parameter 2: Energy Report Mode Energy Report Mode The following option values may be configured -: Value Description 0 Once monthly 1 Reports based on Parameter 3 setting 2 Once daily The manufacturer defined default value is 0 (Once monthly). This parameter has the configuration ID config_2_1 and is of type INTEGER. Parameter 3: Energy Report Frequency Energy Report Frequency Values in the range 5 to 60 may be set. The manufacturer defined default value is 5. This parameter has the configuration ID config_3_1 and is of type INTEGER 14285-1_spec.pdf

That fixed it!! Thanks again!

Still no go, Now returns: node[141766_11]

I posted a specific question in the Vue forum but have just a general question on node values. Im able to write condition statements that test the value in of a node in a program and then act upon that value. For the life of me Im unable to figure out how to use that value in a pushover message or to have it update a variable. My specific case is that I can see the value in polyglot and have tried the following but it just returns a blank value. ${sys.node.n001.141766_11.CPW} Pushover response is: node[n001] Thoughts?

I went with the three program solution... Thank you both very much for the suggetions. MBR Aux Heat Sense - [ID 0065][Parent 0064] If 'Emporia / Vue 2 L / L11 MBR Furnace' Killowatts > 5.0000 kW Then $sMBR.Aux.On = 1 Else $sMBR.Aux.On = 0 MBR Aux Heat On - [ID 0061][Parent 0064] If $sMBR.Aux.On is 1 Then Set 'Notification Controller / Service Pushover polyglot' Send Sys Short With Params To all Priority=Normal Format=Monospace Sound=Pushover (default) Retry=30 Expire=60 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') MBR Aux Heat Off - [ID 0062][Parent 0064] If $sMBR.Aux.On is 0 Then Set 'Notification Controller / Service Pushover polyglot' Send Sys Short With Params To all Priority=Normal Format=Monospace Sound=Pushover (default) Retry=30 Expire=60 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

@bpwwer I would like to use a value from a Vue node to populate a state variable which would be included in a Pushover notification. How would one go about this? The channel is n001_141766_11 Or perhaps going about the wrong way and the value should come through on custom notification with something like this? ${sys.node.n001.141766_11.CPW} When using the latter the response from pushover is node[n001]

Have the following program set to send me a pushover notification if the power usage is greater than to 5.0KW. Issue is the each change in value > 5 kw programs sends a notification. Obviously only want one notification for each instance where threshold is breached. Thoughts? MBR Aux Heat On - [ID 0061][Parent 0001][Not Enabled] If 'Emporia / Vue 2 L / L11 MBR Furnace' Killowatts > 5.0000 kW Then Set 'Notification Controller / Service Pushover polyglot' Send Sys Short With Params To all Priority=Normal Format=Monospace Sound=Pushover (default) Retry=30 Expire=60 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

You are awesome, thank you very much! Will incorporate tomorrow.

Thank you MrBill, here we go... The generator is dumb in that you set the exercise time by pushing a toggle switch that starts the clock for the next run 7 days later at the same time (actually number of hours). So when we fall back or spring forward the time it runs changes by an hour. So perhaps instead of using the day of week and expected time to run we should just know the interval between runs is 7*24 hours. The generator runs for 20 minutes exercising each week. Exercise program works correctly and message is sent by checking state variable as follows: Exercise.SendMessage - [ID 0026][Parent 0025] If $sExercise.State is 1 Then Set 'Notification Controller / Service Pushover polyglot' Send Sys Short With Params To iphone Priority=Normal Format=Monospace Sound=Pushover (default) Retry=30 Expire=60 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') There are a total of 18 programs that determine the generator/utility state(s). I have attached a screenshot of them. Here are the state variables

I have a generator that exercises every Sunday at 1pm. Currently have voltage sensors that will trigger a program and send a message that generator is exercising (utility and generator voltage present), powering house (utility voltage zero generator 240), and utility power status (voltage present or not). All this is working perfectly. However in my old age I sometimes don’t remember to check if the generator exercised eg, did I get the message. What I would like is for a program to execute and send me a text IF the generator didn’t exercise as expected. Those dings on the phone do get my attention. Not sure how to go about testing if a state variable did not change at by certain point in time each week. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
