Just wondering if anyone has successfully set up a Zooz Zen 17 with the input trigger disabled from the relay allowing the monitoring of dry contact inputs and controlling the relay through Z-Wave only. The settings are Parameter 2 value 7 or 10 and Parameter 10 value 0. Resynchronizing should create a 'Custom Button Press node' according to the Zen manual. I never had Z-Wave on the ISY 994 so I don't know if this setup even works. Looking to replace the Insteon SimpleHomeNet EZIO8SA for garage door monitoring and control. Thanks for any info or insight. Gary UPDATE: After a ZEN17 firmware update and properly removing and adding the ZEN all seems to be working great now. Thanks Gary

Z-Wave question. I have added a couple of Z-Wave devices (ZooZ ZEN76 and ZEN 17) to the Polisy ISY. They can be controlled from the ISY fine but any local control doesn't seem to be recognized by the ISY. The device status isn't updated. I have tried multiple Z-WAVE settings and device configurations but nothing works. The following is what I see on the event log when a device is locally switched on or off. Thanks. Any insight appreciated. Gary

I just added my first Z-Wave device on the Polisy ISY being the ZooZ Multirelay ZEN16. I am trying to separate the relays from the switch inputs so they can be used to indicate weather the garage door is open or closed. I have done that with customized parameters. Also I believe that the Basic Control 2 node should be able to read the state of the switch. ON/OFF. The Z-Wave options shows a setting for button press detection which I added to the node. ISY does see the change but is not reflected in that node. Not sure if this can be done. Just looking for any info or suggestions. Just in experimental mode at this time. Thanks Gary Update: I found that the ZEN17 may be better suited for what I am trying to do. Will give that a shot.

Thanks Techman I'll put the extra nodes in a folder. Just wondering if they can just be deleted. Something to try. Just discovered that the config needs to be done from the main node only. So all works great. Thanks Gary

Hi, Just looking for some info. I just received my first Z-Wave device to experiment with on the Polisy ISY. The device is the ZooZ ZEN16. I have it linked to the ISY with no problem. Can't figure out what all the nodes are for. The ZW002.1 On-Off Power Switch node does in fact turn the relay 1 on and off but associated with that is ZW002.1 Basic Control 2 which has no status and seems to have no function. Also when trying to set configuration parameters for the ZEN16 I just get an error. Thanks for any insight. Gary

It does place a comma between automatically. Also tried a text separately. But I think I lost my Group name file in the process. Nothing can be saved. Not important at this point. Will probably need to open a ticket. Thanks Gary

Just realized that emails work with out any problem and no error message. It was a text message that I was sending along with the email that was causing the problem. Thanks Gary UPDATE: Just an observation. If a text Recipient is included in the groups name list I will get the errors and the email won't be sent.

Unfortunately I keep getting this error. All the latest updates and procedures have been done. Thanks for any suggestions.

I have 2 Chamberlin wall mounted openers with MyQ capability using the included ethernet hub. Even though they have a smart wall switch they will still operate using a momentary close/open relay across the smart wall switch wires just as the older openers.

All good. Thanks Michel

Same issue.

Try clicking on "Admin Console (Cloud)". I'm doing that for now to keep the launcher from locking up. It works for local.

I have the same issue where the PLM shows not connected. All updates and upgrades are up to date. The PLM that I have is a smartlabs dual band 2413u version 1.0. It can be seen by an app that runs on the PC. 'Simplehomenet Utility Suite' Thanks Gary

All good here. Just one small issue. I need to use Admin Console (Cloud) from the launcher even though it is using the local IP address. If I use Admin Console (Lan) the launcher just hangs and needs to be restarted. Using port 8080. I did reinstall the launcher but no difference. Also just ordered the 2413u. Thanks Gary

@MrBillThanks. The upgrade seemed to go well. I did have one causality however. The NS WEMO can't fine file splite3. I'll check with WEMO on that problem. Thansk Gary

I did the update and upgrade but it seems that the polisy stays at version 12.2. (FreeBSD polisy 12.2-RELEASE-p6 FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE-p6 r369564 POLISY amd64) Suggestions on how to get to 13 welcome. Thanks Gary

I am not only concerned about the lack of Instron support but also no Network module. Some network devices are not supported with a node sever and may never be. Also some NSs may not cover all the desired commands that can be supplemented with the Network module. Thanks Gary

Same problem as @gviliunas but also would add that the 'Settings Polisy Configuration' never loads. However all works fine after a Polisy power reset. Reboot from the menu doesn't seem to work either. Thanks Gary

Thought these may be of interest. ELK-912 or ELK-912B. They are passive and need no external power.

I see now. Running Polyglot on the RPi?

Not sure if I understand but if you just want to copy a tag temperature to a variable you would need to do this. If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then $Tag_Temp = 'Polisy Nodes / Tags / Home / 0 Test' Temperature °F Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Also if you wanted to save it so that it won't be lost on a reboot you could add this line. Then $Tag_Temp = 'Polisy Nodes / Tags / Home / 0 Test' Temperature °F $Tag_Temp Init To $Tag_Temp Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

I would be concerned using a relay directly connected to the circuit without having a fly back diode especially with micro circuits.

True but what I am seeing is that the 'tag voltage' can't be equaled into a variable which leads me to think that it is a non-numerical value. All the other numerical tag values can be equated. Doing the following seems to be ignored with no value entered. $Tag_Voltage = 'Polisy Nodes / Tags / Home / 0 Taga' Battery Voltage. Using different precisions has no effect either.

Unfortunately I think that the 'tag voltage' is being seen as text rather than a number because a variable can't be set to equal it unlike the other numerical values. So the 'tag voltage' could never be compared to a variable. At least that is what I am seeing after doing some testing.

If you just do a run using either the then or the else setting your variable to the tag voltage you may see that it is not corresponding. Temp and battery level works but it seems that voltage loads a different number. Some tag values expressed as raw don't seem to load the correct number into the variable. Else $Tag_Voltage = 'Polisy Nodes / Tags / Home / 0 Taga' Battery Voltage
