  1. In my first post I show a screen shot of the Downstairs - Entry - Vent -30 scene and its responders. It doesn't have 3D.AC.3D. So using the ISY admin console I added 3D.AC.3D to the scene, then deleted 3D.AC.3D from the scene which appears to have fixed the problem for now. I will monitor. Something was out of whack, just not sure what it was.
  2. Thats the weird thing if I select the device 3D.AC.3D the right column does not show it being a member of a scene with either the KPL Secondary button or the 30 minute button on the coundown timer. How do I remove this scene from 3D.AC.3D?
  3. Thanks will slowly remove them and see what happens
  4. I have a scene (Downstairs - Entry - Vent-30 [7409]) with the 30 minute button of a Countdown Timer (0F.50.98) in it and also a Secondary Button on a KPL (3B.91.A9) in another room in the scene. All works fine when I press the KPL or the 30 minute button on the Countdown Timer. My problem is when I trigger the scene from the ISY admin console main screen or using an ISY program it not only executes this scene but turns on a switchlinc dimmer (3D.AC.3D) not defined in the scene. I tried removing the 3D.AC.3D Switchlinc Dimmer manually from the scene on both the KPL and Countdown Timer but still when I trigger this scene from the ISY it turns on or off the 3D.AC.3D device. I have also attached a Test Scene below but have no idea on how to understand it. Any help appreciated.

  5. I have an old system which includes a number of 2443 Access Points. The vast majority of my devices these days are dual band as I have replaced devices that have failed over the years. Should I still use the Access Points in my system? 1) Do they provide benefit and I should just leave them?; 2) Do they provide no benefit but they provide no harm either so just leave them? 3) Similar to 2 do they provide no benefit but they provide no harm but just remove them to save on power? 4) Do they actually contribute to more comms noise to the system and so better off without them?
  6. Re: 2 I have a Synology nas with a package called surveillance station that functions as a security dvr that works with nearly all ip camera brands and allows http triggers to be sent to external devices like the isy. Also has a rest api where external devices can control the cameras / dvr. https://www.synology.com/en-us/surveillance/7.0
  7. The wait causes the if to be reassessed. You need to break your program into 2. First sets variable to 1 then calls the then of the second program.
  8. The plot thickens. Within ISY I deleted the scene and recreated it. All works fine, I now use the Remotelinc Button A (0A.0A.64) and it turns on and off the Dual Band Switchlinc (20.93.9B) only. However, when I use Mobilinc to trigger the scene it turns on both the Dual Band Switchlinc (20.93.9B) and also the Dual Band Outlinc Dimmer (2A.74.1C) again. I did a re-sync with Mobilinc (download all) and still the issue pesists. Compeltely stumped.
  9. I have the following scene called 'Downstairs - Kitchen'. As you can scene from the image attached below it contains a Dual Band Switchlinc (20.93.9B) and a Remotelinc Button A (0A.0A.64) My problem is when I trigger the 'Downstairs - Kitchen' scene on or off, it not only turns on or off switchlinc (20.93.9B) but it also turns on or off a Dual Band Outlinc Dimmer (2A.74.1C) thats not even in the scene. I am sure I don't have any other programs or scences that would also trigger the Dual Band Outlinc Dimmer (2A.74.1C) on or off. When I do a scene test on the 'Downstairs - Kitchen' scene this is the result: Sun 07/13/2014 08:46:59 PM : [GRP-RX ] 02 61 1B 13 00 06 Sun 07/13/2014 08:46:59 PM : [iNST-SRX ] 02 50 2A.74.1C 23.98.41 61 13 1B LTOFFRR(1B) Sun 07/13/2014 08:46:59 PM : [std-Cleanup Ack] 2A.74.1C-->ISY/PLM Group=0, Max Hops=1, Hops Left=0 Sun 07/13/2014 08:47:00 PM : [CLEAN-UP-RPT] 02 58 06 Sun 07/13/2014 08:47:00 PM : [iNST-SRX ] 02 50 20.93.9B 23.98.41 62 13 1B LTOFFRR(1B) Sun 07/13/2014 08:47:00 PM : [std-Cleanup Ack] 20.93.9B-->ISY/PLM Group=0, Max Hops=2, Hops Left=0 ----- Downstairs - Kitchen Test Results ----- [ignore] Remote Grey - Button A (A A 64 1) [succeeded] Downstairs - Kitchen (20 93 9B 1) ----- Downstairs - Kitchen Test Results ----- Not sure wha this means but I do see the address for the Dual Band Outlinc Dimmer (2A.74.1C) in the second line. How to I trouble shoot this and correct it?
  10. Anyone have IR Codes for pause on a Tivo Series Premiere?
  11. I find it surprising that there are no hardwired smoke and Co combination detectors with battery backup that link to a home automation system either through Zwave or Onelink/smoke bridge.
  12. If anyone is interested there is now a plugin for the Logitech squeezebox where the squeezebox server will issue a GET command when a player is turned on or off. I use this to update variables in the ISY (using ISY REST interface) to keep my programs in the ISY in sync with the Squeezebox. More details at: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthrea ... in-SBNetIO https://code.google.com/p/sbnetio/
  13. If there aren't too many possible values for the variable you could define a separate network resource for each value hard coded in each network resource. Then write programs to call a particular network resource once a variable equals a certain value. A long work around that may work for you.
  14. I don't see this happening. Venstar needs Smarthome to develop this and since Smarthome developed their own range of thermostats they are unlikely to put any investment into this. Would be better off starting a poll on the Smarthome forum to get them to act.
  15. As always Lee thanks for the quick and helpful response. So it appears that there may have been some user error, perhaps on my behalf but also on the instructions in the wiki. I followed the instructions on the Wiki (I thought I did, see: http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:Linking_a_TriggerLinc) which says to press the set button after doing the ISY New Insteon Device steps, at which time it errors out with the engine error. Putting the device into linking mode first does the trick. Can I blame this one on the instructions ?? Anyway all good now. I think I will order a new device regardless as the reason I factory reset it and added it back to the ISY was because it 'locked up' / wasn't sending events this morning not to mention it is the first release of the triggerlinc and there have been numerous updates to the firmware of this device from the looks of it so cannot hurt to have a spare/newer one around for the future. Are you aware of the differences between the TriggerLinc (2421) and the Open/Close Sensor (2843-222)? Thanks Again
  16. When I go to add a Triggerlinc to the ISY I am getting a 'Cannot Determine Insteon Engine Error'. (See attached file). I have factory reset the Triggerlinc a number of times and still no luck adding it to the ISY. I am adding it through the 'New Insteon Device' menu option under Link Management. Have tried moving it within 5 feet of an access point, have also tried the different insteon messaging options under Advanced Options under Link Management. Running the latest firmware 4.0.5. Do I have a corrupt Triggerlinc?
  17. I am running latest ISY firmware 4.05 and none of my 2477D Dual Band Switchlinc Dimmers show the options with the latest switchlinc firmware of all my switchlincs being V.41 as reported in the ISY and on the face of the Switchlinc the sticker shows as 'V7.0'. Haven't seen anyone post here or in Smarthome forum that they have this working with a 2447D or keypadlinc.
  18. Ok thanks. Given this is on a door that is used pretty much everyday I guess I can build a notification program on the ISY that if there is no open or closing of the door over a 24 hour period to then have the ISY notify/email me that battery may be flat. Figured I can have a program that increases a variable for each opening or closing and if that variable is zero after 24 hours to email me that battery may be flat. May have to factor in weekends if I am away.
  19. Installed it and it works fine. One more question, does the Triggerlinc have a heartbeat/notification functionality when the battery is low and needs to be replaced?
  20. Thanks will try it tonight. Running latest firmware 4.0.5.

    I have had a Triggerlinc sitting unused that I bought some time ago (I think when the Triggerlinc first came out). It has a sticker on it showing 'REV 1.0 0924'. I now have a need for the Triggerlinc. Before I install it, are there any known issues with this version of the Triggerlinc? Do I need to buy one with some later firmware?
  22. I see that Lowes has the IRIS product that supports Zigbee, Z-Wave, and Wifi home automation devices. Just interested if it is theoretically possible to support all of Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wifi and Insteon based devices running together within a home at the same time driven by the one controller or do the Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wifi and Insteon protocols conflict with each other within the home?
  23. Installed a new PLM this morning and so far so good. Comms issues seemed to have improved and not one miss fire of the program today so far. Appears my 5 year old PLM needed to be retired.
  24. I jut ordered a few more SwitchLincs (they are on discount plus free shipping) and a new PLM (cannot hurt to have a backup even if it proves not to be the PLM) to see if that (plus unplugging everything on that circuit) improves the Comms and report back. Appreciate the help
  25. If the light is off its status is considered off (not on) when the program triggers for evaluation when I press the paddle On.
