Just to close the loop on this post, this is the result of the recreated program. The code is the same but I added Wait 1 sec to be sure. Btw references to set point is the humidifier control to avoid window sweating - yes, it's that cold and snowy. (where is the global warming!) Indoor Temperature: 20.9 C Humidity: 27.0 % (Set Point 30%) Outdoor Current Temp: -9.2 C (Set Point -5 C) Forecast Temp: -13.5 C (Set Point -10 C) Humidity: 53.0 % Thanks for all the help!

That fixed it perfectly - thanks!. I think the Variable/Integer tab should be renamed Variable/Numbers - makes more sense Thanks again!

Thanks maybe I'll try an update. Are you running the RC1? Update 1: Update didn't help. I'll delete and recreate the Program Update 2: Deleting and Recreating the Program worked - all good

I put waits but no change. This is the Program with Input, Calculation and Output with the result of each step Input Temperature = 15 Calculation according to ISY Temp_Current = 0 ----->result---> (initialize to 0, not required but did it anyway) Temp_Current = Temperature ---->result----> 15 (initialize to current temp and this is correct) Temp_Current =- 32 ------>result-----> 15 (15 - 32 should be -17 and is step incorrect) Temp_Current =* 0.5555 ------ >result------->15 (-17*0.5555 should be -9 and this step is incorrect) Output Temp_Current = 15 ----> result ------>15 (should be -9) Not sure how I can make it more clear Thanks

So my arithmetic is fine and it corresponds to your, but the code isn't working. Maybe I'm missing something, this should be simple Thanks!

I wonder if anyone can help me and thanks in advance for any suggestions. I want to do a simple conversion of Fahrenheit to Celsius but I'm not getting the calculation behavior I expect from the ISY. Below is the calculation. Note I added Notify statements to track progress of the calculation. The Variable $Temp_Current is defined as an Integer. I would prefer floating point but it seems it's not available. The initial Temperature is supplied by a weather service which is retrieved through my Polyglot. Initially the Temperature is set properly to 15F in both Polyglot and the ISY When the Program runs the calculation to subtract 32 it results in 15 Then the calculation to multiply by 0.5555 it results in 15 So the final Calculation results in$Temp_Current = 15C which is wrong, it should be -9C (or so) Any idea where I'm messing up? Thanks !

I think your initial statement was confusing...

Not sure it helps but my rest command from Blue Iris to the ISY via http looks different: http://user:password@192.168.0.69/rest/vars/set/2/38/1 I also use similar rest between my alarmserver to set 15 variables in the ISY and commands are almost instant and has worked for years... mike

Can Can someone expand as to what the very standard method is? I have the same no IP problem using the ISY Launcher (start.jnlp) as well as the previous launcher. Roughly 20% of the time it comes up blank. I've been using an ISY for years and it's only in the year or so that this has been a problem. The problem is only on desktop PC, my laptop works perfectly every time. My PC runs on two subnets 192.168.0.1 as the primary internet connection and 192.168.1.1 for a 10Gb ethernet connection to a video server (no gateway). It's not a big deal but was wondering if this "very standard method" was sending the frame down the wrong pipe? mike

Hi, I'm just finishing up something similar as and our cheap humidistat never worked properly. Highlights below: - Note: electrical for the furnace blower also supplies power to the humidifier transformer - Polyglot MQTT and a dht11 multi-sensor for inside temperature and humidity Only run humidifier only if inside humidity level is too low Polyglot updates an ISY multi-sensor - Polyglot MQTT and Weatherunderground for outside current temperature, 1-day forecast low temperature Only run humidifier if outside temperature conditions are satisfactory to avoid window condensation which is a big problem in our area of Canada The 1-day low is used to allow time for the house to dry out Polyglot updates another ISY multi-sensor - Wrote a very simple ISY Program to control an IOLinc (NO) to turn on the humidifier When inside humidity (<25%), and outside temperature (> +5C), and forecast temperature (> -10C) conditions are satisfied This program automates a routine I used to manually set the humidistat (basically On or Off) - Bypassed the POS humidistat The most challenging part of this setup was F/C handling in the ISY. mike

There is Python-based open source sw programs available online that can be used to build a little alarm server on a RPi. An Envisalink is also required to network enable the ADT system. Basically the alarm server triggers variables in the ISY through the network module which can trigger ISY programs.

Handy in a big house...

For example: DSC armed -> Envisalink -> Alarm Server -> ISY variable -> ISY Portal -> Alexa Notification "Alarm armed"

Eyezon has a web app and i see there's one for the iPhone as well although i've never used it. Eyezon will do the monitoring for you as well. I built my own alarm server that interfaces with my isy but the Eyezon web app is handy too...

The envisalink basically looks like another keypad to the panel and shouldn't affect the dialer. I had monitoring for a period of time along with the envisalink but dropped monitoring because basically I became the monitor.

Have you looked at envialink for network connectivity on your HW? mike

I forgo the central monitoring as I found the ISY was sufficient for "central" monitoring and it avoids a monthly charge. The ISY notifies all the important people of a device failure. Of course everything is on a UPS.

I use GRI sensors in combination with my DSC alarm which is connected to my ISY. A couple of years ago it caught a failed sump pump and saved me from a big cleanup...

Ring is a cloud service so they won't allow registration of a stolen device provided you let them know. I've have a Ring doorbell hd for a couple of years with no problems.

I was in the same situation so I bought an Envisalink network interface for my DSC and found an open source Python-based interface to monitor the DSC and send notifications to the ISY Network interface. The "Alarmserver" runs on a Pi. Probably sounds complicated but it was so simple. I actually setup the same system for others in the family. You can also run EYEZON's apps and they also have a monitoring service as well. Lots of options...

Hi all, is there an update on the Canadian ISY skill for the echo? I've been running the US app, but will switch if it's available. Thanks! mike

It's been so long I had to look. I remember I ordered the kit and it came with the magnetic contact - grey and about 4 or 5 in long installed at the top of the door. The only options I used were Momentary A (2 sec) and LED on Tx. I'd have to get a ladder to confirm NO or NC.

Interesting set of posts. This is one of the first programs I wrote years ago and I have never experienced random door opening or reversals. I actually have two programs, one for monitoring and another that actually triggers the relay. The first program turns on the indoor lights and sends an email notification as well. The second program is set to disabled but still runs when called explicitly by the monitoring program.

Hi Teken, I have about 10 other port forwards (cams, sip, etc) which were all working perfectly, just the ISY (Mobilinc, Portal) was having a problem. The Gmail TLS issue also confused things. The ISY always had a dhcp address, but I made it static while trying to debug the problem - it didn't help. So I changed it back to dhcp and deleted reservation and did a reboot of the ISY but it picked up the same IP again. That's when I figured it was time to factory reset it. I've had the ISY for over 5 years and never had a problem, it's been absolutely rock solid...

Update - I checked Teken's items and all seemed ok, so I reluctantly reset the ISY to factory and performed a restore. All ok now (but monitoring) - thanks for the help!
