I have six exterior doors that have glass in them and wouldn't need to buckle, just break. I also have about 19 reachable windows that wouldn't need to buckle either.

Nope. I had one early Chrome version forced on me and one I installed voluntarily. Ruined both my systems and they both had to redone down to the bare HDD sectors to get control back. I don't install Chrome on my Windows machines, anymore. I prefer to have all the features of IE also and Chrome doesn't support so much now. Chrome is fine for mobile devices that you don't expect much from. I woud rather go without some HA than risk those problems again.

Well Thanks. Maybe there is another way using windows tools. For now I'll have to leave it in the USA.

I am using chrome on a 12" touchpad that the apps always think is a phone.Obviously this is not the right Chrome version. I only get "to download send yourself a reminder" That is the only link on the page. I changed over to the desktop version and the whole format changed to the same as IE shows with the tabs, but there is still no link to download or install anything. Another reason I am beginning to avoid Chrome, even more. It's so half baked and missing display of half the Internet. It's so 1980s but I am forced into it with my phone.

That's the webpage I was talking about. There is only a link that invokes my email program to send anybody a link to the same webpage you are on. Am I missing some hiding link there?

As long as ISY gets notified! Afterall, this is an HA forum, not a security forum! I always love the super-nichrome-herculean-krytonite metal hardened, impenetrable, security deadbolts right beside the door sidelites, made of breakable glass. ....and safety glass too, as you don't want the burglar to get a cut!

The only Request Maker I can find it the website that offers a webpage service. I found a so-called download site that creates an email reminder with a link back to itself again?? No luck finding any plug-in but I did see mention it works with Chrome drive. I have avoided that like the plague, so-far, as I avoid most Chrome things after destroying two machine in the early days.

There must be a completely different layout in Chrome. The address is in another submenu in IE and the top right box isn't there at all. I'll have to try an Android computer with Chrome. I take it request maker is the key to this, getting around an invalid Zip code?

You would have to drill a hole deeper than the tongue of the deadbolt plus the length of the HDS. Without having one you may be past the doorframe stud and jack stud into the insulation of an outside wall. It would be hard to service when you need to check/change batteries.

Well I have one that wroks perfectly and a newer one that ISY can't control. So who knows what new jumble SH has come up with and not told anybody? The RMA was probably the best bet while the iron is hot.

I hope you attempted to force an update with a hair dryer or some hot breath on it before giving up on it. The 2441ZTH takes about 1.5 degrees before sending updates. Humidity sends on a cyclic timed basis. Longer on batteries than on AC power. Init to variables need to be set so that upon power cycling ISY it has a current/stale temperature to work with otherwise ISY assumes a 0 degree reading until the next temperature send.

Post your request for the time delay script character in the Feature Request section. I had suggested that some time back to accommodate MiLight controlling Network Resources needing a 100mSec delay. A special character sequence to accomplish that would have been perfect.

I don't have one. Mine was a question about it. There is brag about the API being so easy in you posted article link but I would be sure this API is about output from Echo only.

The excellent voice rendering of the Echo could be an awesome output for our ISY HA. Has anybody seen any progress on hacking into this API?

We notice a distinct difference in attitude between the two. Siri has mostly smart Alec retorts, whereas Alexa is much more polite.

No MWester was correct. Apologies for misstating that. I forgot that extra hardware was required in answering your question and making those claims. V5 was available 6 months ago but not plug-in, stand-alone software. ISY is reported to probably not ever accept other software plug-in as it has no user style OS but only enough specialised OS to handle the ISY logic engine, and a few other related tasks, like drivers for comms, and user access. Think of a RPi as a second CPU that will become part of your ISY connected by an Ethernet port. They will act and become one multi-CPU environment.

Here is a screen shot of NodeLink providing a plug-in, drop-in software module, with ISY v5.0.5, and my MiLight RGBW LED strips. This isn't a Hue bulb but there is no Insteon or Zwave native communications involved. "I don't see the difference! Do you see the difference?"

Not at all. I was only referring to what was quoted in post #13. "once 5.0 comes out, it opens the door for software-only "plug-ins" that would allow a kind of native device usage of Hue bulbs" V5.xx does all that, plug-ins are available, especially Polyglot, that allow native looking usage of Hue bulbs. Having said that I don't use Polyglot yet, I do have Hue bulbs but I cannot post a screen shot of a Hue system device for you. Perhaps somebody with Hue/Polyglot can post a screen shot in this thread, or link, that is worth 1000 words.

One thing I did notice some versions history back was that things worked better if I went into the java console and deleted all the optional module and not just the two, I believe the ISY Admin Console install does, it was more successful. Not so much that I noticed, for the AC hang but other problems. Having said that I am going to try my win 10 machine I haven't used for months and see if I note a difference. Trouble is some days I can use the admin console for hours and not have any trouble with it. Next day all the icons turn greyed out within a second of running it.

That all happened about six months ago.

Yeah the long strange nic usually get everything behind the scenes too. You weren't an actor is a series of movies called "Liam Niesen I, II, & III" were you?

The best laugh I had was Teken ranting about his nic being mispelled and then spelling yours incorrectly two sentences later. ROFL. When you set the bar make sure you have your drink ordered first. Me thinks they better get v5.0.5 out soon or the bored will burn this forum to bits...or at least down to bytes.

Great idea! High tech nothing! Just get a battery operated megaphone from the junk store. Are you ready for the latest hack for "The Club"....? Now, hold the flared plastic horn against the window of your condo, press the button, and yell... . . . . "Alexa, Turn Off door locks!" Now watch for the confirmation ring pattern. Right Hudda Dudda? (who is huddaduda?)
