ELK UD Mobile Custom Tile Test
UD Mobile has an Armed Next Stay Mode and an Armed Next Away Mode. Neither allow you to change the armed state without disarming first. Is that what you wanted me to test?

ELK UD Mobile Custom Tile Test
I don't have a strong opinion on buttons vs selections. Although, that might be moot point if you are using the new Custom Tiles. If possible, I would be interested in being able to change arming modes without having to disarm. To be clear, this is during the exit delay countdown. I never tried it once the delay has timed out. For keypads, I have ELK-M1KPNAV & ELK-M1KPAS and they both allow you to change arming type during the arming countdown delay.

ELK UD Mobile Custom Tile Test
@Jimbo.Automates I tried your sample custom tile for Elk today, and it performed as expected. While this is unrelated specifically to your Custom Tile, as it also happens in UD Mobile, I keep forgetting to ask about it, so here goes: When arming in UD Mobile and the Custom Tile, you can not change the arming type without first disarming the system. Example: You accidently arm away mode, but intended to arm vacation mode. You can not then select arm vacation mode, you first need to disarm the system. This is not consistent with how the Elk keypads work. With an Elk keypad, if you make a mistake, you can correct the mistake by selecting the intended arming type. Is it possible to have the Elk Plugin replicate this behavior?

New Elk user here... Elk Controller shows up in ISY but zones do not
Make sure you are using the non secure port 2101 on the configuration tab of the plugin.

New Elk user here... Elk Controller shows up in ISY but zones do not
If you followed the configuration instructions and have specified the areas on the plugin configuration tab and then restarted the admin console, the zones should show up. The zones are not listed under Elk Controller, however. They should appear in your device list separately. If not, go to PG3 Elk plugin, set the log to debug, and then restart the plugin. After startup, check the log for errors. Just in case, here are the Configuration instructions: To Configure the ELK Nodeserver Custom Configuration Parameters Set temperature_unit to F or C Set host to the host or ip address and port, e.g. 192.168.1.15:2101 Set user_code, suggested to create a unique usercode for this NodeServer Set areas to the range of areas you would like to include Set outputs to the range of outputs to include Set change_node_names to true makes ELK the source of node names so if they are changed then ISY names will be changed to match. Set light_method to one of the following. IMPORTANT: If using ELKID or ELKNAME you must enable the "Allow ISY Access by PLugin" on the configuration page. NONE Use this if you have no need to control ISY lights with your ELK. ELKALL This creates an ISY Light node for every definded Light node on the ELk If you change light_method from ELKALL to another method, the Light nodes will be removed ELKID This works by right-clicking on a node in the ISY and adding a note with "ELKID=n" where n is a unique integer Then click on the "export" link provided below which will appear once your ELK is synced Note: Depending on how many devices on your IoX it may take a while to process and generate the export file. Once the file is downloaded, open ElkRP connect to your System, then right click on Automation -> Lighting and import the file. ELKNAME This attempts to match the name of an ISY Node with the Name of an ELK Light node to control. The table on this page will show the matches. IMPORTANT: The Elk limits the light name to 15 characters. So the plugin will first check for an exact match of name or address and if not found then it will look for partial matches. This means if you have a light called "My Long Light Name 1" and "My Long Light Name 2" you will only be able to create an ELK light name of "My Long Light " so it won't find an exact match, then it will relook and match one of the others. But if you only have a light called "My Long Light Name" then it will always work as expected. Instead of using the device name, you can also put in the IoX device address in the Elk. Note that if you remove an Area, it will not be removed from the ISY or Polyglot. This is intentional just in case it's an accident and your scenes or programs reference the nodes. You can go to the Nodes Page in the Polyglot UI and delete leftover nodes from changing ranges or light_method using the X to the right of the node. Ranges A range can be comma seperated to include just those numbers, or seperated with a dash to include numbers in between. For example 1-3,5,7-8 will be 1,2,3,5,7,8 All ranges start at one just like the numbering the Elk uses.

Must power cycle EISY after every network interruption.
Are you using Ethernet cable or wifi? If wifi, try using Ethernet for awhile and see if it makes a difference.

Sync error; active variable icons removed from UD mobile as a result
This is not normal. I have never lost any part of a favorite by deleting unused values without an error after a UD Mobile sync. If you create a backup first, remove the unused values, And then loose some part of a favorite, does restoring the backup correct the issue?

Shooting blanks
In the event something didn't install correctly the first time, I would suggest doing an upgrade packages, reboot when told to, followed by a power cycling.

Receive Email When Insteon Device Goes Offline?
Yolink makes a power fail sensor. You plug it in to power from that circuit and you can use their app to email you if it loses power. It also has a loud audible alarm.

Managed to get a folder (not iox) at the top the tree
You would need to move each item out of the folder you want to delete. Once the folder is empty, then you can delete it.

Clear All Notifications?
I understand, but of there are a bunch that you are saving, the blue dot allows you to locate the revalent one quickly.

Clear All Notifications?
I would offer up a different opinion, I prefer to click to clear the notice. There are times I'm busy and can not take corrective action right away. I like leaving the notice active as a reminder and I can go back to it right away and refresh my memory.

Other Z-wave solutions?
From the wiki: Z-Wave Our Original Z-Wave implementation is the certified version of Z-Wave on the ISY-994. This code was ported to Eisy / Polisy, but is being deprecated in favor of our new more functional implementation called ZMatter Z-Wave. The original implementation on Eisy / Polisy can use generic Z-Wave controllers such as the Zooz stick, or, it can use the ZMatter Z-Wave controller (either board or USB dongle). The ZMatter Z-Wave implementation can only use the ZMatter Z-Wave controller (either board or USB dong le)

UD Mobile Custom Tile Testing
@Javi, I started playing with your test tile and added your url to one of my dimmers. Really nice job! I think this will be a nice addition to UD Mobile. My testing raised 2 questions: 1. I added a format color change for status greater than or equal to 1%. I was expecting to see the slider change color, however, there was no color change at all? 2. Under the 0% there is the word off. Since there was not a corresponding on at the other end, I was expecting the off to change to on when the light was operated in or at least when it was at 100%?
