I found out how to send messages to a pushover group - I had to create a pushover service node for the group - it wasn't previously being created because I had too many characters in the name (limit of eight) I wish there was a way to make programs more readable than in the following example of sending a customized IoX message imNotify - [ID 0193][Parent 002C] If $sImState is 1 Then Set 'Notification Controller / Service Pushover JeffKris' Send Sys Custom With Params Content 8 Notification ID (ID=8) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Although you can see the message name in the drop down at the bottom of AC, the program reads back as above (just calls it message 8 )

Default email service on my Polisy suddenly stopped working early thos morning

I don't think that we all need to submit tickets - or do we? I am hoping for some kind of forthcoming info. from UD about this as it seems to be (maybe) a widespread problem -
So I've been inserting dummy messages as placeholders for unused message IDs (you have to have content in them or they won't save) to mitigate this problem. During this process and while trying to migrate my programs to use the NS - I would highly recommend sorting the messages in the drop down menu under "Send Sys Custom With Params". Anyone else agree? EDIT: one more request - is it possible to display the message name in the program, instead of just the message ID being sent? That would make reading the programs much easier. Thanks for your consideration.

Since the IoX default email is exhibiting problems, I thought it would be a good time to figure out how to change my pushover notifications from using the email gateway to this NS. So far I am seeing two problems: 1-I cannot send all of my IoX messages defined in the Configuration->Emails/Notifications->Customizations tab - only a subset show up I am speculating that the NS may have a limit of the max. message ID or something - I have about 88 messsages with the max. ID = 106 2-as reported in Dec. - I cannot send messages to a pushover group, just individuals I did figure out experimentally and later verified by reading this forum that there is really only 1 way to send these messages via the "Send Sys Custom With Params" EDIT: I think I diagnosed the problem - the NS displays all of the IoX system messages that have contiguous message IDs from 1..X, if there is a gap where a message ID Y is unused (Y=X+1) (due to the message being deleted) - then it stops - FYI

I am having problems as well - I use the default email to send Push notifications and have been receiving delayed messages and missing a lot of messages all day EDIT: forgot to mention I am using an EISY/ZMatter with the latest firmware 5.8.3/PG3x 3.2.22 -
Makes sense - @bpwwer - appreciate you developing this NS - I like getting notifications when EV charging starts/stops and the charging rate

I run two Adguard DNS servers at home - I looked at one of them and the Vue node server is sending way too many DNS requests, over 45,000 in the past 24 hours (4 every 10 seconds, it seems) - nothing else on my network comes close to that many requests - I think this is excessive - does anyone have any insight regarding why this would happen? EDIT: I changed the short and long poll times and the DNS request frequency seems to match the short time - not sure why the NS has to perform a DNS query every time it polls...

I'm using this with an Emporia EV charger, I have a couple of programs that inform me when vehicle charging starts, when it ends and how many kWh were consumed.

Upgraded EISY - all appears well... not sure why, but I did not have to re-install the admin panel

It's in the title - while setting up this nodeserver, I discovered yesterday that I cannot send a sys custom message with params to a group created in Pushover, only to 1 device or all devices. I realize there are workarounds like creating multiple nodes for multiple pushover accounts and sending multiple messages,etc. but the pushover group is a more efficient way of combining devices and/or users to get a message. Since the label indicates "DeviceOrGroup" I am assuming the intent was to support both devices and groups - can anyone else confirm this issue and is there any chance of getting it fixed?
-
Thanks for the replies - I know that I can add my wife's account as a 2nd node and send a message 2x to each of us - I tried using the group key instead of the user key with the API key I created for the PG3x notify server but it doesn't seem to work Since the "Send Sys Custom With Params" indicates "DeviceOrGroup" I assume that the intent was that all of the devices and groups for an account should be available - so perhaps there is a bug, or the group capability has not been implemented Ultimately, it will be more efficient and cleaner to be able to utilize pushover groups to reach multiple users, devices and subsets of devices instead of sending 2 or more messages - since I'm just trying this out right now, I'll experiment with just sending messages to my phone and I'll modify my in-use programs sending messages to both of us to use the new group key via the email portal (instead of sending to 2 email portals)
-
OK - so I've figured out how to make groups in Pushover that could be used to send messages to multiple users, each with different accounts - it works, but the Pushover Nodeserver does not contain any of my groups under "DeviceOrGroup" - it only contains devices - I have tried deleting and re-installing, re-starting IoX, re-starting the Node Server and cannot get the Pushover groups to show up - does anyone know how to get this to work?
-
Sorry if this has been asked before - I've installed the notification nodeserver and am trying to understand everything; Previously, I have been using pushover via the email gateway to myself and my wife's phones to deliver messages defined in the "Customizations" tab of the Admin Console. I added a new pushover application for the node server and obtained a new API key - setup is good and I can send messages, but it appears that I can only send messages to the devices associated with my pushover account - my wife has a different pushover account - so how do I send a message to both of us? Do I have to add her phone to my pushover account?

I have a UDM Pro with the eISY plugged directly into one of the front UDM ports - I noticed an update to Protect 2.10.11 occurred this morning at 3AM but my eISY is still online

You can use the Ping node server to Ping a site like Google and a program can run when it times out.

I had been waiting to update from 5.6.4/PG3x 3.2.3 for errors to get fixed but tried this morning anyways - after getting the reboot message, I rebooted but couldn't get into PG3x, so re-booted again and was able to get in - but all my programs were disabled in IoX A/C, so I just re-enabled on the summary tab (I had prepared for this by renaming all disabled programs with a # in front + I had my restart routine disable all of the # programs) - would a 3rd reset have enabled my programs? Will they be properly enabled after future re-starts?
-
Has the disabled program problem been fixed? I'm still running 5.6.4 and PG3x 3.2.3 until I see that it has...

I'm trying to recall everything but this is what I remember: 1-The dimmable switches did not have a "switched ON" condition for use in programming (status only; the On/Off switches do have a switched ON/OFF) 2-not easy to program Zooz switches for group/scene operation in a 3-way switch vs Insteon 3-slower to respond to commands from the controller vs. Insteon in the location being discussed (for some reason) 4-when I moved to ZMatter after using the Zooz USB stick, something stopped working related to scenes / 3-way switch (I am trying to remember exact details) - I have a weird setup where two small rooms, next to each other have their own light switches, but a switch on a common wall will turn everything in both rooms on and off - this got broken after doing the Polisy to eISY and Zooz to Zmatter migration - It was faster to physically replace the switches vs. figure out how to re-link the z-wave ones for scene operation I only replaced some of the switches because of being lazy and I only fixed the ones in boxes related to the above circuit. I have enough additional switches to replace all of them when I have the time. So for switches, I prefer Insteon - however, I have removed all Insteon motion sensors and am using Zooz motion sensors exclusively now, also I use only Z-wave on/off plug in modules (Minston and Zooz) and have stopped using all Insteon there
-
I have 2 of these and set the speed as follows: Set 'Master Suite / Devices / MBR CF ZW030' 25% BTW - at one time I had 5-6 Fanlincs in my house - they are all gone now with most locations replaced by an Insteon On-Off switch and a ceiing fan capacitor wired into the canopy to set the speed (of course, the fan only has 1 speed using this method, but I have found this to be sufficient once I set the right speed)
-
I had all on events occurring maybe 2+ years ago with a similar number of Insteon switches in my house and eventually got it fixed - It was really annoying when all of the lights came on at 3AM - I tried to search my postings to recall how I fixed it but couldn't find them, but I believe that I cleaned up/pruned all of the links in the devices and the PLM and deleted unnecessary scenes and performed some scene cleanup A year ago, I did a fairly extensive remodel of our kitchen and built out a new laundry room into our garage and I used several Zooz Z-Wave 700 Zen switches in this area as a test - I have since pulled some of the Zooz switches out and put Insteon switches in their place - IMHO, Insteon switches are still simply the best product out there...

I migrated from a Polisy to an eisy a few weeks ago - sold my Polisy on eBay and now I am getting messages about node servers that I have not purchased - the Polisy also re-appeared in ISY portal - I deleted it again from my account but am still getting messages - any ideas on how to get this cleaned up ?
-
I have a state variable called sLastAction - it is set to an integer value which represents, as the name suggests, the most recent "action" that happened in my house - an "action" can be a motion sensor turning on, a wall switch being turned on or off, a Harmony remote control activity starting, door opening, security zone being triggered, etc... - several programs rely on this variable being a specific value to run - they all contain an if statement similar the following "if sLastAction = 128 then..." - my question is: What happens if the variable changes twice rapidly before the first program testing the first value gets to run? Will that program be put into a queue so that it is guaranteed to run? And the test condition will still be true? Sorry, if this has been asked before
-
The update fixed the long delays I was experiencing with the Virtual NS (and possibly Hue emulator) - I had to do a 2nd reset of the eisy as I could not do an update neighbors for any z-wave equipment after the update and initial reset - but I think all is good now...

I'm selling my former setup as a kit as I migrated to the eISY/ZMatter - if anyone is interested https://www.ebay.com/itm/195948357265 Update: The items have been sold
