Nonsense? The Canadian supplier contacted me and said the ISY is on indefinite hold because they cannot get an ETA for shipping. Thanks.

My friend does small automation installations and was told by his Canadian supplier that they are discontinuing the ISY. Perhaps this just temporary for this supplier because of chip shortages? Does anyone have any insight or rumors?

Are you using start.jnlp? Or the old launcher?

Good info, thanks! mike

Hi all! Is there anyway to track down what this error means? I see a number of them in the log but not sure what's causing it. System -170001 [UDSockets] RSub:25 error:6 The RSub: number changes 25, 44 , 46, 45, etc Does it mean there are no sockets for connection? I do connect from the ISY to remote servers and vice versa. Thanks in advance! mike

"Amazon and google go through different servers so 1 can be down while the other works. Since 1 does work, I'm assuming your setup is correct and google may be having a temporary issue. You could unlink your account and the. Relink it to see if that helps as well. " Re-linking worked. It actually took longer to find the setting than to unlink/relink. For anyone looking for it: Click your profile top right in Google Home App / Assistant Settings / Devices / Add devices / Link a smart home device / Universal Devices - select to unlink Repeat the process and select UD in the long list of service providers to relink. Thanks!

As the title suggests I'm having problems with Google Home. My wife complained spoken commands aren't working. She just hears "Sorry I couldn't reach Universal Devices". A reboot of the device didn't help. My Amazon Echo is functioning and responding properly. Any ideas where to start to diagnose the problem? Thanks in advance. mike

Well I think there is interest as proved by wifi light bulbs, switches etc but like you said the setup can be overwhleming. Once my brother got a taste of automation he went nuts, he's darn close to fully automated with the hub being an ISY with help from IFTTT to tie in his Wyze Cams for motion detection and recording.

Got it, your hack is good. Portal supports contacts so the only other way would be to trigger 1/0 on a variable after 100. Not ideal...

I had challenges with temperature data as well. Not sure how helpful this is but I used polyglot for my multi-sensor (MQTT) and it reports Temp and Humidity data properly in the ISY. My challenge was to get Celsius to work which was a pita. mike

While it's a bit of work, I used Homebridge homebridge-isy-maker to make virtual devices.

Thanks for this info, I've been wonder for yrs what the colors meant...

Me too...

Update - in the end it was a simple matter of switch F to C in a couple of files in the Polyglot node and then doing an update on the ISY in the Nodeserver tab

I don't know your exact setup but here is my Garage Door program. I wrote it about 10 yrs ago and has never failed... Garage Door Status Monitor If 'IOGarage Sensor' Status is On Then Send Notification to 'Default' content 'Garage Door Notification Closing' Else Send Notification to 'Default' content 'Garage Door Notification Opening' Set 'Main Hall Lights' On Wait 5 minutes Set 'Main Hall Lights' Off

Did you update the UI? Check Help/About

Thanks further upin this post a forum member suggested putting waits after each calculation and watch how they change in the Variable/Integer window. It was very helpful and I understand how it works now - I followed up with a ticket to UDI for an explanation.

Not sure, but v5.0.16 rc1 has been very stable for me. I initially migrated to 5.0.15a and have updated a couple of times without issue. Also v5 brings Polyglot making the ISY an even more powerful automation platform. I have a few node servers (Nest, weather service, temp/humidity devices) running through polyglot to the ISY. For me it was worth the upgrade.

I wrote my Humidifier program in v5 in the spring - it's very stable. I had the Program disabled until this week and experienced a few problems C/F handling but they're sorted out now. So when you're in "Then" you click the arrow for variable assignment, you don't your devices like I do?

I thought you were trying to pull the Humidity from the insteon thermostat - you said: is there a variable I can access in an ISY program for the humidity level as reported by an Insteon Thermostat. In this case look for the thermostat and grab the variable. As for the IR control, it looks like you're trying to set variables and have it do something. That I have no clue about but would be nice to have.

Go into Then section to assign, not the If section to assign the variable. Periodically - this is how I do it. dht11 is a temp and humidity sensor device wu is a weather service

Then in Programs create a variable and assign the Humidity value in the device. Click the button below repeatedly until you something like this. Coincidentally I was working on the same thing. I use a Insteon relay to close a circuit from the furnace fan to the humidifier. I use an IF set of rules including indoor/outdoor temps and humidity as well as next day temp forecast to determine weather to close the circuit. Not sure about your case.

Do you see the Humidity in the ISY 2441TH device in the Admin console?

Do you have a guide that shows how to access it? Google searches aren't pulling up anything. Cancel that, I just did the calculations. I'll see what the ticket comes back with... Thanks!

This applies to the climate module - correct? I don't have that one...
