I used NotifyMyAndroid until that service shuttered due to GDPR. I switched to Join because of how well it works with Tasker. Not sure how it compares to the other suggestions above, but thought I'd mention it in case you are a Tasker fan.

I mount the EZFlora 8-Zone in a box outside. In fact, I am reusing my old Rainbird box.

Buying a second one right now ...

I'm buying a Home right now!

If you are okay with just always running for 8 hours straight you could do this without recording the run time as a variable. You could use the trigger of the solar panel system starting launch a program like this: if solar panel system is on then turn on pump wait 8 hours turn off pump Would that work?

I didn't notice that your log file shows an error for POST and GET. That IS interesting, but not totally sure what to make of it :/ I'll take another look at this on the weekend though!

Hey ravedog, That other thread was originally talking about trying to accomplish exactly the same thing that you are (SS triggers ISY) and then later refers to doing the reverse (ISY triggers SS). The first issue was solved by jwagner010: Follow these 3 steps to allow SS to trigger ISY ... http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/14890-synology-surveillance-station-and-rest/?p=127785 ... but use this updated script for step 2 http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/14890-synology-surveillance-station-and-rest/?p=127932 The key is that SS is not performing an HTTP GET when it executing Actions for External devices. I and others have fed back to Synology that they need to add an option to allow you to choose what SS should send for each action (similar to when you create an ISY Network Resource). If you don't have a need for ISY trigger to SS then you can ignore the rest of the thread.

Have you seen this thread already? http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/14890-synology-surveillance-station-and-rest/

Nice job! Those do look good. I do have a set of the clear buttons that I didn't care for originally. I'll take another look at this.

How did I miss this? Totally installing on my phone now. Thanks for the tip!

Doh! After all this time I never noticed that. Well now I feel like a complete idiot. A happy idiot though! Thanks for setting me straight,all!

I agree that disabling is the best method for programs like this. I wish there were a way to conveniently 'disable' ISY from querying the specific devices as well so as to avoid getting the series of pop-up messages about device not found. Is there a better practice here than just ignoring the pop-ups for items you knowingly removed? Just curious.

Good to know these aren't high failure rate items. I don't lose power often, but I will never forget this experience. Thanks again, Michel. Sincerely, Bertram

No problem, Michel. You were spot on as usual! I was able to perform the steps you outlined to a T. So glad to have my ISY back up! I think I'll leave some of these SD cards handy and ready to go just in case. Best regards, Bertram

So last night I had the misfortune to come home to my ISY994i flashing its red error LED. Looking on the forum and wiki I found this could be due to a bad SD card. I apparently lost power while I was out so maybe it was related? In any case, I started following the instructions here: http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:Replacing/Formatting_an_SD_Card Unfortunately, I don't get the result indicated in step 2.4. After inserting the new SD card, logging in via telnet with the default user name and password, entering 'FS', I get the following text as expected: ***WARNING*** You will lose all data/configurations. The controller may become inoperable! Proceed (Y/N) I type 'Y' and hit enter and then it just sits there. I let it sit all night. It never said 'Goodbye' as indicated in the wiki. I tried moving on to the next step of browsing to http://universal-devices.com/99i, the page looks like it starts running java but then stops with an error: When I click the error it says a class can't be found: Anyone have advice for me on this? I'm not sure how to proceed other than trying more SD cards. Also, not sure if it matters but I have the ISY with the SD card accessible from the front. Regards, Bertram
