Hi Bill Your custom behavior is correct except there should be a space between 66 and 1 in your nodes. This would be a GET command which is the default. Also it probably would not be a good idea to use port 80 as your router may assume it is for him. I use port 5010 and you would need to forward that through the router to your ISY's local address. And also configure the ISY to reflect that port as well or translate port 5010 to 80 in the router if you want to keep 80 as your ISY port.

Hi Bill Yes you can have the Ubi send HTTP Rest commands to the ISY to control your Insteon and other devices. Here is an example for turning a light on. (http://user:pass@your Internet address:port/rest/nodes/1F F7 5C 1/cmd/DON) At this time you would need to enter your Internet ISP address and port number to the ISY as the Ubi doesn't do local HTTP but may in the future.

Hi Michel Super good news. Thanks Gary

Hi I was hoping to be able to ping small WiFi modules located in vehicles to determine their presence or absence. It would require being able to receive the response. Thanks

Hi Just wondering if there will be any ping capability in the network module at anytime. thanks Gary

Hi Things that I know for now. The HTTP requests come from their servers and need to be set up as if the request is coming from outside your local network. However I have not been able to send a REST command this way either. They are saying that they hope to allow the Ubi to make local requests in the near future. Also APIs should be coming out in several weeks that would allow requests to be sent directly to the Ubi like text to voice.

After setting up it using the Ubi portal any further configuration is done through the portal and then downloaded to the Ubi. Your contacts are entered at the portal and then downloaded. Custom Behaviors are configured there and then downloaded. At the moment I don't think the USB port is used for anything. It is WiFi based. It is Android Jelly Bean 4.1

Just general thinks like asking about the weather, play music, etc. I tried the send message and voice response on the customizing service but they don't seem to work either.

I think the problem my be with the Ubi's Custom Behaviors as none of the other functions work either. My have to wait for an update before trying further. I do hope the user password will work with the Ubi. Thanks for all the effort Gary

No luck with Ubi. After giving the command I don't get any response. Maybe it encounters an error.

Good news. I was using the latest IE browser (11) where it didn't work. Tried it on Firefox and it worked fine.

Ok, set it back to 80 at the browser and I still get the windows message.

Yes the command failed when using the user and password in the browser. This is the command. (http://myusername:mypassword@192.168.20 ... t/nodes/17 F7 F0 1/cmd/DON) I get the message "windows cannot find" What ever I change in the portal is down loaded to the Ubi. So all would be local.

Thanks Lee I do have that included. It works fine on the browser but not in the Ubi . Nothing appears on the log if I try using the Ubi.

Thanks all for your help. I am able to send the REST commands via a browser but haven't had any luck so far using the Ubi. I assume the login is the problem. I did try (http://isyusername:isypassword@/rest/nodes/11%2022%2033/cmd/DON) but on the browser I just get cannot find the URL. I assume the Ubi would have the same problem. If there is a way to logon using REST then a voice command could be set up to do that assuming it would stay logged on and not time out. Any help with the logon would be greatly appreciated. Xathros, I believe they are hoping to ship all the Ubis before the holidays. Thanks again for all the help. Gary

Thanks hbsh01 I did see where an HTTP post can be entered into the Ubi. As I know little about REST I was wondering if you could supply a simple example of what the command would look like and what I would need to do at the ISY to turn on an Insteon device. I tried searching but didn't find any clear examples. I do have the network module. Thanks very much. Gary

Hi Just received my first Ubi and would really like to be able to voice commands to the ISY and receive responses. I would think that their API's are now available so I was wondering if there is still interest in interfacing with this product to give the ISY a voice. UBI (http://theubi.com/) Thanks Gary

Xathros Thanks for all you help. I downloaded a drag and drop web editor and put my first published web page up on the ISY. All seems to work well. Yes I will be interested in using JaveScripts and Java apps at some point in the future. Again thanks Gary

Thanks -Xathros I assume Java is acceptable to use? Any suggestions on an editor, maybe one that is drag and drop to built pages? Gary

Thanks -Xathros I think that is what I am looking for. I would like to create web pages with links etc. and then load them into the ISY server. I see several free editors that I may give a try. Not sure what the 8.3 naming convention is or what services are offered by the ISY's server. Thanks for the direction. Gary

Hi all I was wondering if there is something out there like a program that can be used to create useful web pages for the ISY as I don't have a clue beyond coping a photo into the web server to be displayed on access. Also any detailed instructions or video would be helpful. Thanks so much for any assistance. Gary

Thanks Michel That would explain it. My security software deletes temporary files as part of PC tune up. Thanks Gary

Hi Through many releases I have a question regarding the admin console. Prior to being able to select different themes the console would revert back to a full screen display even though it had come up several times with the size that I had re-sized it to. After being able to select different themes it now after several times coming up correctly will not only go back to full screen display but also revert back to the default color blue. Any suggestions? Windows7 Isy99i now at 3.3.9 Always have cleared Java after each upgrade. Thanks Gary

Hi The new Venstar T5800 thermostat with Wi-Fi looks very interesting. Was wondering if any support will be available in the near future. Strangely the cost is less than the Insteon module for the T1800 and has far more features.. Thanks Gary

Hi I just ran into an issue with the DST change. I have a program that queries the voltage of an ELK zone every 3 minutes. It runs the than statement at startup but ended when the time changed. I was wondering if this should have happened? If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Repeat Every 3 minutes Set Elk Zone 'OutLightLevel' Query Voltage Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') ISY99i ver3.3.3 Thanks Gary
