If you switch the driver (or power supply) will you lose your 12 volts at the switch? Curious why you want to switch the driver?

I was poking around the ISY backup file one day and noticed the user names in the 0.UCF file. You need to extract the backup zip file. Then again extract the uuid.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.zip file with 7-zip. You will find the 0.UCF file in the CONF folder. Most of it is not legible content. But I did see the user names in plain text within this file. Yes, I was very board one day. I assume the file extension of 0.UCF stand for User Config File. But I have not found a was to get a list of users.

I just picked a device not doing anything, tried it, and it worked. I unplugged the 'Christmas Tree" (On/Off Outdoor Module) then Queried the device. You just need a program to query the device at some given interval. I sent a message with the Push Node Server. Push Test - [ID 0024][Parent 0001] If 'Christmas Tree' Responding is False Then Set 'Nodes / Push / Garage' Message Don't forget! Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

Has anything changed? Have you checked the Error Log or regular Log? When you say "even manually", does that mean you are right clicking the program and selecting Run Then?

I don't think there is a v5 specific manual. Take a look at the Cook Book for a bunch of good information. "ON" is the current device status. I believe the view of "Click to Specify" is the default status. Once you click the arrow, you can specify the level in the drop down and the device will go to that level. You will see that just above in the Status section. The "ON LEVEL" is the level that you want the device when you turn in on by pushing the physical switch or the ON button below. The Ramp Rate is how quickly it will get to the On-Level. Double tap on switch goes to full brightness fast. Insteon device can beep, although my mature ears usually can hear it. You can have several switches beep when some event happens. I believe the numbers are like the volume. Just ignore the Backlight for devices like LampLinc. It is nice to be able to turn down the brightness on dimmer switches at night. Especially in the event it is positioned so it shines in your face at night.

I can help with the SSH utility. I use this on windows: https://www.putty.org Or you can use Terminal from a Mac by typing: ssh user@XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX. User being the user name and the X's being the IP address of your Polisy. Then it will ask for your password. I have not had the beeping problem, so that is all the help I can offer, sorry.

@asbril I thought I remember reading that the number at the end was the ID number, I might be wrong. Do you have something in Network Resources with ID 50?

@gduprey See if this helps. Right click your master programs and copy to clipboard. Paste it into Notepad and it gives you something like this for ALL of your programs. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Smoke Alarms - [ID 0018][Parent 0017] If 'Support Devices / Smoke Alarm / Smoke Alarm-Smoke' Status is On Or 'Support Devices / Smoke Alarm / Smoke Alarm-CO' Status is On Or 'Support Devices / Smoke Alarm / Smoke Alarm-Test' Status is On Then $Notifcation_Smoke_Alarm = 1 Set 'Scenes / All Lights' On Else $Notifcation_Smoke_Alarm = 0

@nickster When Universal Devices updated their site, the serial numbers are now the full Mac address. You have to re-add your device using that number.

If this has been covered, I am sorry I missed it. I might have a bug or something wrong. Perhaps I have two problems, or they are related. I had experienced this before and thought I might have done something wrong. But recently, it happened again as I was testing PiCamMonitor by @markv58. If you have Blue Iris software, you should check out PiCamMonitor; even my wife loves it. I created a simple program that calls for PiCamMonitor, pretty simple. But it stopped working, and the log in PiCamMonitor was not getting any request. I could see the Blue Iris Nodes changing status in the ISY, and I could set the PiCamMonitor features manually from the ISY. Then I remember I had this issue before. I changed all the Blue Iris Node values to FALSE in the IF statement and saved the program. Then flipped them back to TRUE and saved again. Problem solved – the program works. Has anyone else experienced this issue? I had it happen one other time with a porch light. Took me a long time to figure it out. The above happened in 5.0.16b and another previous version that I can’t remember. Also every time I open the Admin Console, go to programs and hit save, I get this: It happens on v 5.0.16b and 5.0.16c for me. It also happens if I open the Admin Console, modify a program, and hit save. It first tells me it is deleting a program and then saving. It will not happen again until I re-open the Admin Console. I have seen it on different computers as well.

I was just wondering the same thing as I am upgrading my NodeLink/Polyglot RPi to a 4. I am sure @io_guy will comment.
-
Does that mean in the future NodeLink will run as a NodeServer in Polyglot? Or just run as it does now on the RPi, but just on Polisy?
-
Logged into NodeLink and seen this. Is this a problem with my internet connection, a update bug in v0.10.1, or is the server down? 2019-11-04 09:10:09 - Auto-Update: Error updating file: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.

I had this same problem, are you behind a Fortigate?

Variable to TXT file for Blue Iris text overlay
Whitehambone replied to Whitehambone's topic in ISY994
Danbutter, That worked great! Turns out the content length is not important as seen in my screenshot above. -
Variable to TXT file for Blue Iris text overlay
Whitehambone replied to Whitehambone's topic in ISY994
I have set up NodeLink on a Raspberry PI. Really all I did was follow the NodeLink PI instructions, but it was on my network and working. I am not real familiar with the RPI or Linux command line usage. I would need help with this setup. -
Variable to TXT file for Blue Iris text overlay
Whitehambone replied to Whitehambone's topic in ISY994
I looked at the thread and when I try to duplicate your setup, I have no option for content length. I assume admin is your Blue Iris log in user and the IP is your BI server? Yeah, I just want to overlay a z-wave temperature on the garage camera. I already use Blue Iris Tools for weather info. -
I searched and can't find anything on how to put the value of a variable into a TXT file that can be accessed on the network. I want a single file with just the variable value that gets overwritten. I thought I could just make a custom notification with the variable in the message body. But how do I access the file over the network like a shared folder? @webpage:/mydir/garage.txt ${var.2.53} I see a bunch of information on logging and graphing and will like try it. I can access the info by http://10.10.10.3/user/web/mydir/garage.txt. Can a specify a shared directory in the custom notification? Ultimately I want to use the TXT file as a text overlay in Blue Iris. Is there an easier way that i am just overlooking? I am on 5.0.14. I am using Blue Iris to trigger events on the ISY, fun stuff!
