I am trying to AVOID going into the power panel! ;P do NOT need to get electrocuted!!

Teken, my dryer doesn't have a LED but does have a buzzer. How could I use this?

I did not see this... Thank you Jon. Probably not going to work. Going some other routes... My machine doesn't have a light when it is finished, but it does have a buzzer. Could I wire that into an IO link somehow?

Thank you all for the input! For what it's worth, I think the easiest thing for me is to get the Z-Wave card from UD and use the Aeon Labs z-wave energy meter.

Can I add a z-wave module to the ISY? Mine doesn't have one.

Hi all, I use the SyncroLinc to monitor my washer, but my dryer has the large 240 plug. Is there anything I can use to do the same thing with the dryer? Thanks all!

Thats the one problem I suppose... I could go back in while the wash is running to throw something in maybe? So programming would have to say ONLY when the wash has been off for 10 minutes THEN...

Hi all, I have a program that senses if my washing machine is running or not and when done, sends me a message. It is as follows: If Control 'Laundry Room / Washing Machine' is Switched Off Or Status 'Laundry Room / Washing Machine' is Off Then Wait 10 minutes Send Notification to 'Cell Phone' Else None My problem is that when this happens, I forget about it and it sits there. I also have the door to the laundry room set up so when the door opens, the light turns on. So, what I want to do is have this message sent to me every 30 minutes UNTIL the door is opened i.e. I open the door and walk in the room and take out the laundry. Does anyone know how I would go about programming this?

Does anyone know if I have the Z-Wave module installed if the Aeotec Smart Switch 6 or Smart Energy Meter will work with ISY the way the iMeter SHOULD work i.e. show energy used and calculate costs?

I simply added the iMeters to the ISY then linked the display to each iMeter individually. It works... not great but it works. Not worth the money... I am probably sending it back. I think I am going to do what Teken suggested and just get some Z-Wave energy monitors and use them with my alarm system.

The only reason I like the iMeter devices is because I can monitor individual outlets. I don't need energy monitoring on the whole house. Just my server rooms and media centers. Are there better ZWave devices out there that can do this in a better fashion?

Hi all, I purchased 4 iMeter Solo devices and the energy display device so I could monitor server energy usage in my home. Much to my surprise, they don't work very well with the ISY. From what I have read, all the ISY will show me is the energy usage, I have to query it myself and I have to reset it myself monthly or when needed. On top of that, the energy display doesn't connect at all. Is there any way to make it work better? Or even better, are there any other devices that integrate better into ISY for displaying energy used for certain outlets? Thanks all!

It is an electric dryer, so it has a giant 240v plug. I have no problems with my TriggerLinc setup. I simply got a 1.5v power supply and hooked it up to where the battery goes in and it works. I usually dry the laundry either when I am out or at night when I am sleeping. When I am home, it really doesn't interfere with the rest of the system. As in what device? I was going to use a TriggerLinc This is sort of what I want. I want it to finish and send me a message every 15 minutes until I open the dryer door using the TriggerLinc.

I want opening the dryer door to turn off the alerts because that means I went to the dryer and took the clothes out!

When programming the SyncroLinc, I turned the washer on programmed it for the ON amount of power. Then turned it off and programmed that.
