  1. Is this part a requirement of your camera to connect via rtsp? For my Foscam cameras, after port, I have: /videoMain You need to check the rtsp format required for your camera. Try using the command in something like VLC Media Player to see if you have the correct format.
  2. Why are you in safe mode? Are you using Insteon and is your PLM working? Since the address of each device changes with the node server, programs need to be fixed manually. A back up wouldn't help. Are you using any other node servers and are they working? As a test to see if the node server is connected to Elk, violate a zone and see if it shows violated in admin console.
  3. I tested the operation by creating the program I posted above. In the admin console go to the keypad device page and select query. The reading for F key press should be none. Next, go back to the program you created above, right click and select "run then". Go back to the keypad and the display for F key should now show value of the F key in your program. For initial testing, use an F key you are not currently using, not your key that calls police. First thing I would try is restarting the node server while watching the log with at least a setting of Info or debug from PG3. Check the log for any errors. Following this, I would power cycle eisy. If that still doesn't work, try the Discover button in PG3 for the Elk node server. If it still doesn't appear, you will need to send the log to the developer. Just to confirm, do those keypads all show up in ElkRP2?
  4. Thank you for the additional context. You can create a program triggered by your Zooz button that triggers the Elk F2 button. Like this: Test F Key - [ID 0067][Parent 00B1] If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Set 'Area 1 / Keypad 01 MB' F2 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') I just manually tested this and it works. Note that you would need to add your Zooz button in the If statement to trigger the key press. You can observe this in the admin console under the Keypad device. Alternately, you could have a program that closes an Elk virtual output when the Zooz button is pressed. Then in ElkRP2, write an automation rule that upon the output closing, it dials the police. It could also chirp the siren on/off. Note, I have not tried this, but did confirm the rules are available to accomplish this.
  5. Sign in to ElkRP2 and connect to your system. From the left hand menu, select Users. From the top menu, select New - the dialog that opens usually prefills with 1 new user and the next user number, which you can change. Select user to copy from (yourself?). After the above, the new user 's window opens, where you can enter a name and a user code. You can also modify the Areas, User Authorizations and designate if this is to be a Duress code. When finished, don't forget to send to the control (button on last screen) and save to the database (save button from top menu.
  6. You can program a function key on the M1 as a burglar alarm, police alarm, fire alarm, medical alarm, etc. Elk has these and some additional ones available via the drop down list in ElkRP2 - Keyboard - Definable Keys. Note, you can designate either a single press or a double press of the F key to reduce the potential for an accidental press of the button. Back in eisy, you can create a program with any trigger in the "If" section to designate the same "F" key press on the selected keypad. If you are using UD Mobile, you can even have a tile that when pressed, will run your program and activate the defined alarm (and change color to maybe bright red?). On the M1KPNAV, you can name the F key you use with the name of the alarm (Police, Panic, Fire, ect). Also, as @kzboraysuggests, you can create a duress user code that can be entered on a keypad that would also trigger the designated alarm. This is can be convenient for holdup/forced entry situation. Does that answer your question?
  7. When you want to post a program, the best way is to right click the program name and select copy to clipboard. Then paste the program here. To check your program, right click on it and select status. I think you will see that the program has finished running the "then" portion of the program at the designated time.
  8. Have you tried doing a Zwave sync with and without Interview?
  9. Try reading through the ISY Cookbook. While written for the ISY994, the programming concepts are the same. If using node servers, just look in your node server for the proper node address and use that. http://www.universal-devices.com/docs/production/The+ISY994+Home+Automation+Cookbook.pdf
  10. Are you talking about Elk Module or Elk node server? The Elk Model is most likely not supported in v5.7.0.
  11. While I don't use Mac, it appears like there is a file association issue? Try clearing your Java cache, checking all 3 boxes and download a new start.jnlp from here: https://isy.universal-devices.com/start.jnlp After the download, run start.jnlp and a new IoX Launcher should appear on your desktop. Depending on which version of Mac you are running, there are a few troubleshooting steps in the wiki.
  12. You need to use port 2101. Since you appear to still be having trouble getting everything to work, can I suggest you disable importing lights for now and concentrate on getting your Elk system in to your system. Where are you seeing this? It is recommended to set up a new user code in Elk to use with the node server. This can be done from the Elk programming software, ElkRP2, or from some keypads. Have you done that and tested the user cade to be sure it works? Once you have a user code that works with your Elk, enter the user code in the node server configuration tab. Save the page, restart the node server while watching the log. You should see the node server start up, connect to Elk, and add the nodes. After the nodes have been added, then start the admin console. If the admin console was open when starting the node server, you must restart the admin console. If this doesn't work for you, please post some screenshots.

    Eisy Help Elk

    Try shutting down eisy, pulling the plug for a few minutes, then starting it up again. You don't mention what firmware you are on, but if you haven't run upgrade packages from the Configuration tab, go ahead and do that to ensure you are on the latest firmware. You may need to reboot several times to get everything running. After that, you should find PG3x at your eisy IP address, as follows: xxx.xxx.x.xxx:3000. By the way, since you mentioned Polyglot, you probably already know that you will need to purchase the Elk node server to use with eisy. The Elk module doesn't work with eisy.
  14. You could create a variable for each device to record the state and then set the variable init vale to maintain it over a power outage. Then write a start up program to restore those states.
  15. In my opinion, your best bet would be to copy your programs to the clipboard and paste them to a text document, then Factor reset your Zwave devices and add them to eisy. When you add the Zwave dongle to eisy, the Zwave naming convention changes, hence each Zwave address will change requiring manual intervention anyway. Having a text copy of each program should simplify creating the programs on eisy. I feel this process will be cleaner and less painful then troubleshooting something that may or may not work. Not even sure if transferring controller is an option in eisy?
  16. You can use a keypad or ElkRp2 to add a new user. Check the Elk manual for exactly how to do it. The errors might be because you are lacking an authorized user, but I'm not sure. You can also try rebooting eisy. Suggest you get a proper user programmed before you start chasing something else.
  17. Have you checked the node server log for errors? The user code is not reansom, you must program the Elk for a new user with the code you want to use. Did you do this?
  18. Wording & layout could be better, but I'm satisfied as long as it all works. lol
  19. Go to the Purchases tab, click on the node server you need to update. Under Purchases, there should e an update button.
  20. These are the important fields to get basic data in the admin console: 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 A range can be comma separated to include just those numbers, or separated 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. Have you entered the correct IP address and port? Note, you can not use the secure port. You can only have one device connected to Elk at a time. Are you in ElkRP2 or anything else? Have you entered a valid user code? Did you set the area to your existing Elk area? Did you restart the admin console? If the above doesn't help you, we will need to see your configuration details.
  21. It is recommended that you create a new user code in Elk for use by the Elk node server & UD Mobile. Remember, you can only have one active connection to the Elk at a time. Therefore, you can not be connected with say Elk RP2 and have the node server via the admin console respond. You would need to exit ElkRP2 first. You can access more information and/or the instructions for any node server before purchasing/installing from the node server store. Click on the name of the node server, followed by More Info button.
  22. For starters, here is a link to the Elk Node Server documentation: https://github.com/UniversalDevicesInc-PG3/udi-poly-ELK/blob/master/README.md You can access the node server configuration page by going to the IP address of your eisy and adding :3000, which would be the port number. Sign in using your admin console credentials and click on the Elk node server from the dashboard, followed by Configuration tab. You should see the following 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 ELKID to check for ELKID=n on ISY Nodes, or ELKNAME to check if the Elk Light Name matches and ISY Node name or address. ELKALL This creates an ISY Light node for every definded Light node on the ELk 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 After changing to ELKID method, you must wait until you see "Export Completed" warning message in the Log. Then click on the "export" like provided below If you change an ELKID on a node then you must restart the nodeserver for it to be seen. 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. 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. If you change light_method from ELKALL to another method, the Light nodes will not be removed. 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. Once you get the configuration set up, you need to restart the admin console if it was open. Afterwards, your Elk should appear in the admin console. Next, go to programs and update them for the new node names. There are examples in the help document. If you have further questions, it is best to start a new topic.
  23. Download and run a fresh copy of start.jnlp. Make sure you download a fresh copy.
  24. Do you have a portal account to try?
  25. Are you running on a Windows machine or a Mac machine? Do you have a UD portal account? If so, try selecting "cloud" and login with your portal credentials. Also, if you are running anti virus software, try disabling it.
