Unexpected result when querying iolinc with trigger reverse enabled
Hi Jimbo, Appreciate the info you and junkycosmos posted on the MIMOlite. Your post finally convinced me to purchase a MIMOlite to replace the IOLinc I had in service for several years as garage door control. I have been waiting for V5 with multichannel support to install the NuTone GDO I purchased in August of 2015 and finally gave up. http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/16652-nutone-ngd00z-garage-door-controller/?hl=nutone The Nutone will never be installed now that the MIMOlite is working. ~Mike

Garage Door Randomly Opens
Without the statement 'And Control xxx is not switched Off' the Else clause will never run. You need the 'And Control xxx is not switched Off' to run the Else clause.

Thermostat Advice for ISY: Z-Wave? EcoBee3? Honeywell? Trane?
A few months ago I purchased the AZEMT500BB32MAA thermostat for my second zone. Just an updated version of my original Trane and works fine with the ISY. http://www.zwaveproducts.com/shop/climate-control/z-wave-thermostats/z-wave-hvac-thermostat ~Mike

Thermostat Advice for ISY: Z-Wave? EcoBee3? Honeywell? Trane?
Hi Jimbo, I have all of the below Gen5 devices in my Z-Wave network. Aeon doorbell (ZW056-A) - *ISY lists it as a siren Aeon smart switch (ZW075-A02) Aeon smart switch 6 (ZW096-A02) Aeon smart dimmer 6 (ZW099-A02) Aeon multisensor (ZW100-A) None of these show in the Schlage lock neighbor list. Only my original Trane thermostat and an Aeon multisensor (original version) are listed as neighbors for the Schlage lock, although both the Trane thermostat and Aeon multisensor have all the above Aeon Gen5 devices as neighbors. Very strange. ~Mike

Thermostat Advice for ISY: Z-Wave? EcoBee3? Honeywell? Trane?
As I stated in post 28, my Schlage lock lists the Trane thermostat as a Repeater. However I find it odd that my Schlage lock DOES NOT see any of the Gen-5 Aeotec Z-Wave devices that I have added. Has anyone else seen this?

my PLM just forgot everything but it's own identity.
Sounds like the PLM is bad. Many have had this problem and there is a fix if you are handy with a soldering iron. http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/13866-repair-of-2413s-plm-when-the-power-supply-fails/ ~Mike

Schlage
Hi Tim, I think the best place to start with variables is the wiki. http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:Integer_Variables You have to define your variables before using them in programs. Don't forget to hit 'Save' when adding your variables. Since posting those programs two years ago I have slightly changed how they are named. A good practice is to preceed the chosen variable name with "i." for Integer and "s." for State variables. Using this labling method will help you identify the variable in your programs. A change in value will cause a program to run when a State variable is used in the 'If' clause, and Integer variables will not. Another thing that really helped me was to log all the changes I make to my ISY in a text document. Make a backup of your ISY before you start and another after you are done making making changes for the day. Log everything chronologically in the text document. If I add a variable or add/modify a program it goes into the log. This way you know where you are when making changes. Along with the Schlage BE469 I use an Insteon Hidden Door Sensor to detect if the door is open or closed. If unlocked it will automatically lock itself as long as the door is closed. I did not want a situation where the door is left open and my SchlageTimeout program extends the lock's bolt. That would be bad. I noticed that you want the KPL button lit when the BE469 is locked. I use the opposite indication, a lit button means unlocked. Just reverse the logic to get the result you are looking for. Try creating and modifying your programs to suite your requirements and let us know if you have further questions or need clarification. ~Mike

Schlage
This set of programs have served me well. I am able to lock/unlock from KPL, have it lock after 10 minutes if unlocked. Two different KPLs have one button, as Controllers, in the 'SchlageButton-A' Scene. http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/14677-schlage-be469/page-2?do=findComment&comment=123297 ~Mike

Program to Notify if door code is used, with one of four doors

Schlage BE469
Not in the way I wrote my programs. If unlocked my 'SchlageTimeout' program will automatically lock it unless it is stopped by another KPL button that runs my 'SchlageTimeoutEnable' program or the door is left open. ~Mike

Schlage BE469
- My Schlage lock is not in the Scene. The lock is always controlled by one of my programs. Only the KPL buttons are in this Scene and they are both Controllers. - Yes, my KPL buttons are in toggle mode. Hope this helps! ~Mike

Schlage BE469
1. Because I can. 2. So do not have to go to the door and physically unlock it. ~Mike

Schlage BE-469 Unlock Access Code
Hi Gary, I have been using this set of programs for well over a year to notify me with push notifications to my iPhone via Prowl. http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/14677-schlage-be469/?p=123297

Schlage Lock, ISY and KPLs, Oh My
The BE-469 auto-lock feature is disabled (default setting.) It can be enabled through programming at the lock.

Monitoring and Programming Schlage
See the second screenshot in post #5. Individual programs call individual notifications added in the Network Module / Resource Editor. I consolidated all my Schlage lock programs in one folder. ~Mike

Monitoring and Programming Schlage
The variables are based on what the Schlage lock is sending and are set in programs. The first program (shown below) shows that when the Schlage Lock has a Status of 'Access Code 1' and is 'Unlocked by Keypad' then the integer variables $i.SchlageLockedBy is cleared to zero, $i.SchlageUnLockedBy is set to 1 (Mary), the Scene for my KPL buttons is turned On, and the Resource 'SchlageMary' (shown in above post) is called. SchlageMary - [ID 0073][Parent 0076] If Status '.Z-Wave / ZW 006 Schlage Door Lock' is Access Code 1 And Control '.Z-Wave / ZW 006 Schlage Door Lock' is switched Unlocked by Keypad Then $i.SchlageLockedBy = 0 $i.SchlageUnLockedBy = 1 Set Scene 'Scenes / SchlageButton-A' On Resource 'SchlageMary' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') The same method is use throughout the programs. I added a period between '$i' and the variable name since posting those programs to define the type of variable. Hope this explanation helps. ~Mike

Monitoring and Programming Schlage
For logging you can use ISYLogger. http://forum.universal-devices.com/forum/61-isylogger/ If you have an iPhone you can use Prowl for notifications. For a history you can run the Prowl app. This is what it looks like on an iPhone. It requires the ISY Network Module. I have created a separate resource for every notification, each called by their respective program. I believe Tasker is the equivalent for android. ~Mike

ISY portal with Moblinc and http while within home wifi
Hi Scott, The portal profile will work both at home on your local wifi and externally, however the local wifi will be noticibly slower compared to directly accessing on wifi. I am not aware of a way to have MobiLinc automatically change profiles. ~Mike

Monitoring and Programming Schlage
You can use something like my 'SchlageTimeout' program and set whatever timeout period you like. I use a 10 minute timeout period. http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/14677-schlage-be469/?p=123297 ~Mike
