I tried everything I could think of and found in manuals and instructional forum with no luck. In the end, in two attempts over months, now, the only way I can make my Cisco (DD-WRT) co-exist with my ASUS (native) is to share the same SSID and password. They must have some distance between them so they don't clash too hard. Port forwarding from outside via the two routers always works with the device's correct IP addresses though. IP reservation table work in the master ASUS for the remote devices also. This is despite the master ASUS router only showing 1 IP address for all the units hard connected to the Cisco but always shows an extra digit beside the ID showing how many units are connected through it. I tried all the bridge modes and access points and none of them ever worked for me after a few weeks of studying the things.

$60? Heck my last RPi 3 came at about $120 canuck buck. My first RPi came a few hundred dollars as it only supports HDMI and I didn't have a monitor that was less than a few years old with HDMI, a keyboard and mouse, since RPi would take those mini round connectors that all my dozen keyboar and mice have. OTOH the Tags that started out as $15 now run $30-50 and Tag manager is another...what? $50 ...but then us Canucks have to pay our part for the Obama wall to protect against our slingshots that sting so badly on our "bare arms". Things has changed man.

Wouldnt using a Synchrolink be the monitoring tool to notify the user of a pump failure even if it is the Syncrolink that fails? It seems to me, knowing this is a possibility, an ISY, a monitoring Synchrolinc, and some logic, would be enough to be a top quality alert system. Sent from a tiny keyboard. Response may be brief.

trackR has some "coins" that transmit Bluetooth and are absolutely useless for the purpose sold. Their range is the typical range of Bluetooth, about 10 feet. Using an RPi that can detect BT may work if how to interface with the signal can be discovered, sending a signal to the ISY REST interface (that part is easy) The other thing that comes to mind is a thick rope tied on the outside of a pneumatic self closing door. Train a few dogs to push the door open to go outside, and pull the rope, from outside, to go in, making use of the slow close. Another would be a couple of well placed, and shrouded, Insteon MS units and an IOLink, using it's output contacts to activate an input to the door circuit.

You have a repeat statement line with no code to repeat underneath it. You've been out to C too long The construct works like this. Repeat every 45 minutes ...do this ...do that Repeat 1 time ....do something ....do something else

I have the same thing with, especially one Dot, about 10 feet from my router. Perhaps the WiFi is too sensitive and loses connection due to over driving the receiver, being so close?

When the compressor us shut off the refrigerant pressure equalising can turn tge compressor motor backward. If yoy turn on the compressor while the motor is turning backward, most motors will start in reverse. Now you can destroy your whole system. The time delay is needed to protect your system. I did this once, due my stat and compressor on different curcuits, and hopefully my compressor wasnt damaged. Luckily I was outside, heard the awful noise of a compressor running backwards, and responded quickly to the breaker panel, just dropping the compressor circuit. http://hvac-talk.com/vbb/showthread.php?919272-single-phase-copeland-scroll-running-backwards Sent from a tiny keyboard.

The REST interface is passive and programs, and even a browser, can operate programs, scenes, devices and variables directly by ISY's 'catchers mitt' Sent from a tiny keyboard. Response may be brief.

CAO TAGs have introduced a new unit that sends luminance. People are really impressed with their operation, so far. I have four but no luminence ones yet. They are easy to interface with ISY via it's REST interface. The basic features are temperature, humidity, motion, battery voltage, and no luminance, al in the same tag. Range is good, usually up to a few 1000 feet. Charting is native on their website for all parameters.

Windows 7 and windows 10 both come with Windows Defender anti-virus software that they update very frequently, free. Windows 7 could run Microsoft Security Essentials, a free download from MS, and it was even better. One of the reasons i dumped Win 10 and went back to Win 7 on two out of three former Win 10 machines, so far. All are the best anti-virus softwares I have ever run, not slowing down your computer much, very transparent, and never attracting viruses to my machines. Easy to remove without starting over, also.

The KPL LEDs can only be activated by Insteon Scenes. They will not respond to programs in ISY. KPL LED levels will but not On and Off.

Welcome to the forum! I don't use Alexa scenes. I use combinations of various brands, all from my ISY. My Hues are controlled via Network resources in my ISY, as are my Milights, and LEDenet bulbs and RGBWW strips.

Post signs above each monitor. You are currently located in the city of XXXX

I prefer the logic capability of the ISY and central control of all my data and logic. eg. If ....Tag1.humidity >= 50% AND ....Tag1.Temperature < 20.0C AND ....from 9:00 AM ....to 4:30 PM (same day) Then ....run ventilation I don't think this and many other logics can be done without ISY being in control. I could just have bought a SH Hub for that

The only firewall I ever had to allow access for was my Windows 10, 7, and java firewalls.

Very weird. From the two screen shots I assume your Tag Manager must be at 10.0.0.19 trying to circumvent the total block set by the Maximum Security setting locking out all outbound traffic. Why block all outbound traffic and then attempt to punch a special hole in it? Do you need to block items in your LAN from talking to the outside world? OTOH: The settings you are playing with would normally only affect traffic going out through the WAN. Is your router attached to the ISP via the ActionTec WAN port? I could never make that work on my Cisco talking to my Netgear (primary to ISP). Only LAN to LAN connections ever worked and bridge mode never functioned properly either. I am no expert at this stuff but hear your frustration and just trying to point out "maybe" obvious things to me.

Are you attempting to connect the Tag manager to a secondary router (Actiontec) talking to your primary router (Netgear) via WiFi? Routers don't typically block any traffic from inside your LAN unless you enable those special features. Native router firewalls are for outside initiated traffic and this is not the case for a Tag Manager on your LAN. It doesn't require any port forwarding from outside to inside your LAN.. I doubt you had to punch holes in your router firewall to browse the Internet. You shouldn't have to, to allow your Tag Manager communicate to the outside world either, a basic router function. Once you enable those router features in your router then only specific IP addresses and ports may be allowed to pass, depending which method you blocked things with, usually one of two methods.... Block everything except the list I specify or Allow everything except the list I specify. I don't use any blocking features in my router for LAN traffic.

I thought of that and marked Home as a house over a block but the screen has so many lines worn into it I can almost feel a groove to my house

It's never a problem until it is....

A few have found with dual band routers that the antenna system just can't handle the power output into two frequencies. Turning the power output levels down in your router, or access point, increases the success of most device comms. Sent from a tiny keyboard. Response may be brief.

Your firewall will accept an IP address of the Tag manager that will allow it free reign to send whatever it wants. This has nothing to do with your router and/or port forwarding. The firewall is part of your OS. Port forwarding is not required for the Tag system. Port forwarding allows things from outside to get through your router into your LAN.

Too bad the module was not supported. It appears to be an easy to use Insteon to serial port bridge that ISY would only need to know standard on, off style commands. Sent from a tiny keyboard. Response may be brief.

The Tag manager requires no port forwarding or any special router treatment. I does it's own connecting just like your browser does. Look into your Firewall settings and make sure they allow the IP address of the TAG manager, to pass. For a test, turn it off.

Only the Program Summary program run times can tell you if the program ran each time. I don't see any other way to determine your program isn't starting to run, and then cancelling itself, due to some other hidden logic elsewhere modifying the variable. Running logic with "is Not 1" is the same truth table logic as "is 0" for a variable only used for boolean function (two values only as 1 or 0) The "is NOT" technique is only necessary with elements creating program triggers that are only True in their dynamic state, while being evaluated from their own event causes. eg. If ...switchlinc is switched On AND ...time is 7:30 PM can never be logically true, as both triggers are only ever true when called by their own logic. Neither have any true static state. Else will be run at 7:30 PM, always Else will be run when On is received, always. If ....switchlinc is NOT switched On will run Else when On is received, always None of this is necessary with logic elements having static logic states of On and Off.

Program logic gets re-evaluated every time a state variable in the logic changes. If the logic section is true the Then section runs. If the logic is false the Else section gets run, and the Then stops. In one of the v5.x versions the program got re-evaluated every time a value was installed in the state variable (think Rest also), instead of only upon a change. I believe this was corrected now to behave like other variable controlling methods. Program logic is not evaluated if the value doesn't change upon a variable value write. It would be a waste of ISY engine time.
