NR: What am I missing? If you did a restore from your ISY backup each NR needs to be loaded and saved again or it isn't linked into the system yet. Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

Yes. no access to my ISY right now but. If Wednesday and day of month >= 15 and day of month less than or equal to 21 Then it's the third Wednesday of the month I would use my technique using created variables to do the same easier. $sISY.MM.DD This technique was posted a few years ago.

ISY and Polisy *OR* ISY on Polisy???
larryllix replied to Wes Westhaver's topic in New user? Having trouble? Start here
Yeah, and now polisy doesn't need to have major firmware. I am sure there is still some for booting. Polisy has an SSD which can load software into RAM as any computer can now so the firmware designation becomes improper also. Integer? I see your floating point there.

ISY and Polisy *OR* ISY on Polisy???

The problem here is that ISY994 was a combination piece of hardware containing a piece of software initially, and now the software and hardware are parting ways. The trouble now is that users are arbitrarily trying to assign names (to hardware and software) that previously belonged to a combination box. None of them is currently definitive and a bend of the de facto and already established definitions. UDI has been the creator of this naming confusion and will be the only arbitrator and resolver of this, in the end. The rest is just semantics among users until then and definitions are not clear. -

Now we need to stop Home Assistant people from using the previously taken by Home Automation acronym, 'HA' hmmmm... maybe use 'Ho A$$' instead? -
Any value in the old Series 300 modules?

It was always an ISY994xxxx. ISY was a token nickname. 994i was never anything but a suffix. Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk -
Since my ISY994 was always called 'icy' by me here my new polisy is now being called 'pole icy'. That diffentiates it from policy and stops it from sounding 'hissy' Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

ISY has logging capabilities itself built in to it's own memory. The technique involves notifications and writes to files dictated by the user. There was a thread disclosing the technique, along with a graphing program that can all reside inside ISY written by @MWaremanyears back but I can never find old threads in these forums. I wrote monitoring programs for many HVAC devices and discovered many problems in my own ISY HVAC programs using this technique. Sorry I cannot find the thread right now and so vague on information.

I saw the dual and/to arbitration setting for dual ISY polisy situation but never attempted to use both. I felt I was past the commit point when I did it, just switched my ISY off and later deleted it from ISY Portal. Most of my Alexa vocals are for lighting levels and colour anyway and they were easy to switch over and test. I still have a few vocal varieties that have not been implemented yet. Every few days I find some other alternate lighting vocal missing from my selections.

I haven't found any instabilities in polISY yet. However I have found features not functioning somewhat and some not at all. I believe most of this have been brought up to 99% with the latest release but have not been local to my polisy to loading test that release yet. Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk -

All dependent on much you watch the news stations. I still do not personally know anybody that had the disease. I have heard many stating they already had COVID-19 a year before it broke out though. However we still follow all the rules as best we can. Mexican resort does it's due diligence but doesn't really enforce strict rules in some places. Many cultures from around the world see things differently. It can be tough distancing. Wrist temperatures are scanned at each restaurant entrance. Funny thing about that is some people, on forums, were freaking out about being tracked via scans of your level (not likely tagged/chipped) bracelet. The answer was...don't offer that wrist for scanning. Imagination is a powerful tool. Back on topic: What do I do with a 256GB iPad that could not be OS updated and now refuses to run apps it was purchased with a few years ago? Consider the cost of the 300 Zwave board a rental at $0.0x per month and now the term is up. -
Personally, I would get USB PLM and a polisy and start porting over. ISY / polisy is working quite well now. Much to go but workable for most intents. Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

I typically use one program that senses problems and decides whether a notification is justified based on more criteria. Then I call another xxxx.notification program that would check if I am on vacation or not. As an example I might make my Alexa boxes say some warning and also send an SMS and an email with the warning on a four or 24 hour basis. If I am on vacation I may only send one notice or only one repeat notification every few days or every week. Getting too many notifications on vacations is disruptive.

UD Mobile works just fine with my polisy/ISY however the thread subject is not about the ISY portal connections.

Did you use https://ISYipAdress:8843 ^ or just http://ISYipAdress:8843 ?

polisy watches your ISY event and data stream so it can provide node servers for nonInsteon style devices, if the user installs any. Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk -

That was my thoughts exactly also. To further simplify, many of the Or brackets can now be removed and the multiple condition date logics use the same technique as the single line filters to end up with a 7 or 8 line program. Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

Looks like you have a good grip on D'Morgan's theory but the reverse logic appears to make it appear more complicated. Good usage of parenthesis IMHO as they are also for readability, not just the Boolean arithmetic. Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk
