Wanted to report back that switching from the .1.1 jar to the .1.3 jar solved the issue and Echo can now find the devices. But as KCK above, I am getting the 401 errors and the echo cannot find the device to turn on/off. I will report back when I figure it out. Noel

I just got the echo and following directions here and elsewhere I was able to get the hue bridge up and running on a Windows 8.1 machine. I can add devices to the bridge using I'm Only Resting HTTP client. However, echo won't find the devices. Bases on various suggestions I've turned off the firewall on the windows machine, turned network discovery off, poked around my router, but to no avail. Anyone get the echo to discover devices from a Windows 8.1 machine? Any help appreciated. Thanks. Noel

Thanks Xathros.I think disabling internet access on the isy did the trick. Kind of counter intuitive to me. Teken my router reserves the ip address by using the MAC address. Is there another setting I should look for or is that what you meant? Thanks again. Noel

Excuse me for jumping in on this thread but it seems the best place to ask a similar question. After a power failure my ISY reboots faster then my router. Upon power restoration and rebooting of both devices I gain LAN access to the ISY but I do not have internet access. If I am home I can reboot the ISY through the admin console or unplug it and plug it in and internet access is restored. If I am not at home although the ISY works I can't access it or the admin console remotely. I guess I can buy the web switch mentioned in an earlier post but that's $129 and adds complexity. Anyone have the same issue or perhaps a suggestion? Anyone know of a way to delay the reboot of the ISY programmatically? Interesting I do not have this issue with my ELK-M1XEP. Although it reboots before the router I can still access it remotely after power restoration. The router is a netgear R 6300v2. Thanks. Noel

I am glad to hear that variables will be supported in Network Resources in future firmware. apostolakisl, thanks for your suggestion. I'm going to try it. I'm also going to try to have ISY send PowerHome a UDP packet when the temperature changes which will fire a trigger in PH which will run a macro to issue a Rest command from PH to ISY which will pull the various temperatures and setpoints from ISY and trigger PH's voice. Thanks again.

I won't mind creating a separate UDP resource for each variable. There aren't many. But how do I get the variables into each resource. I'm at a loss. Thanks.

I am using the network module. Here is an example of what I mean. The formula for the variable is being sent (and received) instead of the result of the formula (variable). I've tried all the modes and with and without quotes. Thanks.

I have connected ISY and Powerhome operating on my PC through UDP. Powerhome has easy to use voice integration and I have it announce things like "Garage Door is Open" or "Perimeter is Secured". I can not figure out how to send it ISY variables using UDP. For example I would like it to say "The temperature on the first floor is " ${sys.node.14 86 C 1.ST} "degrees." This works in an email but for UDP it sends the formula not the temperature. I am certain that I am missing something easy, but I don't know what. Anyone know if this is possible? If not, any other solutions? Thanks!

In hopes this will help someone else: I had an old MorningLinc which I had to replace. Instead of replacing it in ISY I deleted the old one and tried to link the new one(v .42) with no success. I tried dozen of times following the wiki in great detail (using the manual linking directions). I used the New Insteon Device drop down and added the insteon address manually. It never worked. In a last ditch effort I tried it automatically using Link Management>Start Linking. I then went to the MorningLinc and put it in Link mode and it worked the first time. I think the wiki entry was written prior to the current version of ISY. If appropriate, will someone update the wiki instructions to reflect this new information? It might save someone a lot of time. Thanks. Noel

This might be of interest to some. In my email notifications I was able to add: Leak Detected on ${sys.date} at ${sys.time12} ${sys.node.XX XX XX 2.name}: ${sys.node.XX XX XX 2.ST} ${sys.node.YY YY YY 2.name}: ${sys.node.YY YY YY 2.ST} ${sys.node.ZZ ZZ ZZ 2.name}: ${sys.node.ZZ ZZ ZZ 2.ST} This gives me the ISY date and time the leak was detected (first line) and the name and status of the WET signal from each of my 3 sensors (one sensor per line). ON means a wet condition was sensed and OFF means status quo. XX XX XX is the device ID. The 2 after the device ID indicates the condition of the WET sensor. Use 1 or 3 if you want the status of the heartbeat or Dry sensor. Noel

Thanks. Took me a while to figure out what I had to adjust, but the links helped a lot. Thanks again. Noel

Great solution. Thanks. I did a lot of searching and reading before I asked the question to see if there was something that would point me in the right direction, but I couldn't find anything. For future reference, is there a resource I missed that might have given me that solution? Thanks again. Noel

I'm new to isy and trying to learn the ins and outs of programming. When I enter the bathroom between 12:30 am and 6:30 am and hit the on switch, I want the light to come on at 30%. All other times I want it to turn on at 100%. The following program does this BUT the light first turns on at 100% and it then takes about 4 secs for it to dim to 30%. I assume that is the time it takes the isy program to run and the command to reach the switch. If From 12:30:00AM To 6:30:00AM (same day) And Control 'Upstairs / Master Bedroom / MB Bathroom' is switched On Then Set 'Upstairs / Master Bedroom / MB Bathroom' 30% Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') My alternative, and it's not a very good one, is to set the local level to 30% and run another program during the day to raise the level to 100% when the bathroom on button is pressed. This also works but there is again about a 4 sec delay until the light goes from 30% to 100%
