Hi, we actually have the product running and available for sale. You can visit http://www.touchswitchapp.com for details. Best regards, Burak

I'm not sure if this exists for all mac users, but the networking module file browser still seems to have this issue: on a mac, when you try to drag files from the computer side instead of dragging, it highlights files in the path of the drag... Just wanted to give you a heads up... Burak

Hi aLf, I don't know if they have the same structure, but I suspect they do. What we can do is the following: Since you have been using your triggers, you must have them already set up. Do these cameras also have the enable trigger page after you set them up? (for example, after you set up the trigger number 1, if you click it, the next page has a enable check box, which you can check and save). If so, open the camera setup page, right click close to the enable task check box, and choose view source. Copy the contents, and email them to burak@zlxd.com Please not that doing this will expose your email server address, username and password to me. You can either edit the text to change those, or trust me not to mess with your email... If you edit the password and username, you can simply put back the correct ones, once I prepare and send you the ISY import file for the network resource. So simplified: 1. open camera's setup page on your browser. 2. go to triggers page, choose the trigger you want to control by ISY. 3. when you reach the page that enables the task, right click near the check box and choose view source. 4. copy the source contents and email to me. 5. I'll prepare and send you the isy network resources for sending trigger enable and disable... Best, Burak

Hi Alf, do you have BL-C30A cameras? I can export my ON/OFF network resources for you, then you can import, and just change a few things after you import them into ISY.

Hi aLf, The networking tab is only available with the purchuse of the network module for ISY. I remember you were also interested in the iPhone webapp, if you get that one as well, there is a good discount for the network module. As for the possibilities: I'm using my trigger to do exactly that! With the push of a KPL button, the camera's trigger is activated, and with another push it is deactivated! You can also remotely do it as you suggested. Best, Burak

Hi Alf, Where did you get stuck? Burak

Hi Sk8er02, I think the problem is the escape characters. Change the %40 to @ in the email addresses, and the %3A to i think ! in the subject. I saw two email addresses and the subject, but do check it again. I'm not sure if any of the options in the network resources window provide automatic translation of escape characters on post, but it is easy enough to avoid them in the body... I hope this resolves your problem. Burak

Are you familiar with html and do you have access to a HTML editor? If yes, go through the setup of task 1 in the camera's interface. Test it by enabling it. If it works, disable it. Then from triggers page, open task 1 again. If the interface is similar, it should have enable check box, and buttons to save or move to next page. Right click the page close to the checkbox and open the source code. Copy and past the source code to your HTML editor. You will see that there is a form with multiple hidden values that pass on the settings you had created to the save page. Now edit the form, change the METHOD to GET (instead of post). and the ACTION to the name of the page that you just created in your editor. Basically, you will be posting the form data on the page you are creating, however, since you use GET method, the form data will be added to the URL of the page, after a "?" sign. Save the page, and open it with a browser. You will use it twice, once with the check box checked, this will be your Camera ON command, and once with the check box cleared, this will be your off command. Each time copy the data from the address line in your browser, everything after ? mark. Hope this helps. Burak

Hi Joe, I apolgize for any inconvineince, I checked and the email was sent this morning 7:08am EST. However, your email client maybe filtering out the emails we sent as spam. Please make sure to add admin@touchswitchapp.com to safe list, or to your address book. Also please check the spam folder. Lastly, I'll pm a copy of the same to you in a minute. Regards, Burak

Panasonic BL-C30A cameras are ideal for real time monitoring of property. They are wireless, and have built in web servers for viewing through internet. They also have motion detection capabilities, that can send emails when motion is detected in camera view. This tutorial will show you how to activate your Panasonic BL-C30A cameras via ISY with the touch of a switch, or run of a program, or using the TouchSwitch interface for ISY. What you will need: ISY (really ?!) BL-C30A cameras from Panasonic, I'm pretty sure they all have similar engines, so this may be applicable to different models... Networking Module For the purposes of this tutorial camera ip is 192.168.1.3, port number for the camera is 82. 1. Create a network resource for the camera in ISY ----------------------------- Start admin console, open the configuration tab | Networking | Network resources Click add. Change the name to anything you like (LR Cam On) Click URL line. Change the protocol to HTTP Post. enter the ip address (192.168.1.3) to the host input box, enter port number (82) to the port input box. Path will be /CgiImageTransfer In the header section, click add and choose authorization from the drop down list. Enter the username and password for the camera when prompted. In the body, copy and paste the below code. Things to change: 1. Remember, this will overwrite the task number 2 in your triggers page, so you may want to change the task number to an empty one. 2. SMTP server used in this example is domain.com, on port 25. change it to your smtp server, and the appropriate port number. 3. This example uses smtp authentication, change the enteryoursmtpid in the body to your own id. 4. Enter your password at enteryoursmtppassword 5. Change the from address youremailfrom@domain.com to what you prefer. 6. Change the to address youremailto@domain.com to what you prefer. Language=0&Page=1&TaskId=2&MessageMode=0&PrimaryStartSun=1&PrimaryStartMon=2&PrimaryStartTue=4&PrimaryStartWed=8&PrimaryStartThu=16&PrimaryStartFri=32&PrimaryStartSat=64&PrimaryTimeMode=86399999&PrimaryStartAMPM=0&PrimaryStartHour=12&PrimaryStartMin=0&PrimaryStopAMPM=1&PrimaryStopHour=11&PrimaryStopMin=59&PrimaryResolution=0&PrimaryQuality=8&PrimaryPreIntervalNum=1&PrimaryPreIntervalPer=1000&PrimaryPreNum=0&PrimaryPostNum=1&PrimaryPostEnable=1&SensorIgnoreTime=600&PrimaryPostIntervalNum=1&PrimaryPostIntervalPer=1000&TransferMode=48&TransferMailServer=domain.com&TransferSMTPPortNo=25&TransferPopServer=&TransferAuth=2&TransferPOP3PortNo=110&TransferPopID=&TransferSMTPID=enteryoursmtpid&TransferPopPassword=&TransferSMTPPassword=enteryoursmtppassword&TransferMailFrom=youremailfrom@domain.com&TransferMailTo1=youremailto@domain.com&TransferMailTo2=&TransferMailTo3=&TransferMailSubject=&TransferMailText=&Position=9&MessageMode=0&MessageMailServer=&MessageSMTPPortNo=25&MessagePopServer=&MessageAuth=0&MessagePOP3PortNo=110&MessagePopID=&MessageSMTPID=&MessagePopPassword=&MessageSMTPPassword=&MessageMailFrom=&MessageMailTo1=&MessageMailTo2=&MessageMailTo3=&MessageMailSubject=&MessageMailText=&ClearImage=&ConditionSave=1&TaskEnable=on&TransCondition=1 Save the Network resource. You have successfully created the ON command. When this network resource is called, it will create a trigger task 2 on your camera and turn it on to send emails with the trigger image to the email you specified. Next step is to create an OFF command. Follow the steps above to create a network resource, name it LR Cam OFF. This time the body will be: Language=0&Page=1&TaskId=2&MessageMode=0&PrimaryStartSun=1&PrimaryStartMon=2&PrimaryStartTue=4&PrimaryStartWed=8&PrimaryStartThu=16&PrimaryStartFri=32&PrimaryStartSat=64&PrimaryTimeMode=86399999&PrimaryStartAMPM=0&PrimaryStartHour=12&PrimaryStartMin=0&PrimaryStopAMPM=1&PrimaryStopHour=11&PrimaryStopMin=59&PrimaryResolution=0&PrimaryQuality=8&PrimaryPreIntervalNum=1&PrimaryPreIntervalPer=1000&PrimaryPreNum=0&PrimaryPostNum=1&PrimaryPostEnable=1&SensorIgnoreTime=600&PrimaryPostIntervalNum=1&PrimaryPostIntervalPer=1000&TransferMode=48&TransferMailServer=domain.com&TransferSMTPPortNo=25&TransferPopServer=&TransferAuth=2&TransferPOP3PortNo=110&TransferPopID=&TransferSMTPID=enteryoursmtid&TransferPopPassword=&TransferSMTPPassword=enteryoursmtppassword&TransferMailFrom=yourmailfrom@domain.com&TransferMailTo1=yourmailto@domain.com&TransferMailTo2=&TransferMailTo3=&TransferMailSubject=&TransferMailText=&Position=9&MessageMode=0&MessageMailServer=&MessageSMTPPortNo=25&MessagePopServer=&MessageAuth=0&MessagePOP3PortNo=110&MessagePopID=&MessageSMTPID=&MessagePopPassword=&MessageSMTPPassword=&MessageMailFrom=&MessageMailTo1=&MessageMailTo2=&MessageMailTo3=&MessageMailSubject=&MessageMailText=&ClearImage=&ConditionSave=1&TransCondition=1 Save this network as well. Test your resources with the test button. Next we will setup the programs to start and stop the cameras. I use a 8 button KPL's A button to set away mode. So my program monitors the status of the A button. If Status '8b coat closet.A' is not Off Then Enable Program 'Unauthorized Entry' Resource 'LR Cam On' Else Resource 'LR Cam Off' Disable Program 'Unauthorized Entry' So, if the A button is turned on, the camera is sent the command to create and enable trigger as defined in the network resource. The program also enables unauthorized entry program which monitors the status of all the lights in my house, and if anything is turned on, it sends a text message to my phone. 2. Setup sensor locations on the cameras you will use. Since the cameras I use are pan and tilt, they have 9 preset locations, one called the sensor. The sensor is a special location, since the camera can monitor motion in the sensor preset even when the cameras as pointed towards another point. Open a browser and browse to the cameras web server, go to the Singe tab, click program, then click sensor, point the camera to the area you would like to monitor, and save. You are all set. Optional, but cool: I also set it the above program as two custom commands on my TouchSwitchinterface, called ARM, which executes runThen, and UNARM, which executes runElse for the above program. So, when I decide to ARM my security system, I get my iPhone, start the TouchSwitch application, click the ARM icon on the main page, and voila! My cameras are on, my notification system is on. Heck, if I had a rabbit I could turn that on to do something too, but I have a cat Enjoy! Burak

Hi, Also for future reference to buyers, coupon code is sent when you complete the purchase of TouchSwitch along with TouchSwitch download information. Best, Burak

Putting fan state on AUTO in ISY's admin console should turn it off when heat/cool functions are not active. Works on mine. Burak

I purchased my first insteon system along with ISY. From the first day of my installation, when I was a newbie and had newbie problems, to this day when I write programs for ISY's web module, my experience with them nothing less than perfect! Unbelievable customer support for a great product is their signature. Burak

Oh, that is not good. v2.7.2? Rand Yes.

ok reverting to i1 only instead of Auto solved the problem.

Burak, are you right clicking the device and selecting Remove? Not from a scene, but from My Lighting? There should not be any failures then as the ISY should ignore the device itself and just delete any other links from/to it. Rand That is what I thought should happen but the request fails.

So, I borrowed a whole bunch of devices from a friend and added them to my ISY to do some testing over the weekend. Of course I had to remove the borrowed devices, but I did so before I removed them from my ISY. Now I cannot remove the devices from the ISY. Each time the request fails. I was able to remove a few scenes that came with these devices, but not all.. What do I do?

Hi Mike, can you explain how we can use this feature? Thank you, Burak

I use the floor plan in my iPhone web app to sort our "rooms". It is very helpful.

Hi, I have been working on an iPhone webapp for the ISY, and I believe we have a beta ready for testing. Please PM me if you interested in testing. Of course, you will need an iPhone, or an iPod Touch. You will also need the Web Module from UD. Michel has offered to provide a discount for testers of the webapp. I'll ask testers to use the webapp to control their devices over local wireless network and over the 3G/Edge network of the cell phone carriers to review reliability and usability. I must warn that the release is not a full release, not all device types are available... So please make sure you will not get frustrated and break your iphone's glass (i broke mine once already ). Special thanks to Michel for all the support he provided. Best, Burak

Honestly, I was vacationing in Maui, HI, so not so much done Sorry guys. But, I can definitely recommend you do the same.

Sneak preview: edit: sneak preview over Images will change, style sheets will be corrected, but it should give you a general idea of where it might go...

Not a iphone OS applicaiton, but i'm working on a web app for ISY optimized for iphone... Burak

I use a flag program, named "email notice sent", which is changed to true (then path), when my monitoring program sends an email. However, the monitoring program will only send the email if notification flag is false. The flag is changed to false once a day during daily query... You could change the frequency of resetting the flag to false... For me once a day works good because my program monitors for conditions that can yield snow... Monitor: If Module 'Climate' Dew Point (less than) 32 °F And Module 'Climate' Humidity (more than) 75 % And Program 'flag - SnowTextSent' is False Then Send Notification to All Run Program 'flag - SnowTextSent' (Then Path) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Flag: (it's completely empty, just set to true or false by others)... If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') The 3:00AM Query All program: If Time is 3:00:00AM Then Set Scene 'My Lighting' Query Run Program 'w - query thermostat' (Then Path) Run Program 'flag - SnowTextSent' (Else Path) Run Program 'flag-humidity mail sent' (Else Path) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
