I deleted Bond PG2 version and added Bond PG3 version. All worked okay except the main screen is missing button text. I'm guessing it's Discover Nodes. I've already deleted Node server and added it back with same results. I don't care unless it hints at some other problem but would like positive confirmation either way on what to do. Thanks

It depend on which thermostat. The early thermostats were a Venstar branded with an Insteon dongle plugged in the bottom and as far as I’m aware it was required. There might have been a wifi dongle but I don’t know. The version in my photo had Insteon built in as it was a Smartlabs branded product.

I migrated to the PG3 Flume water Node server this afternoon. All went well and I’m measuring water used for irrigation described in posts above in this thread. Thanks! The PG2 version I was running did lose authorization based on what I saw in log a few days ago, so for PG3 version I put checks on controller status, authorization status, Hub Node Status and Sensor Node Staus to alert me if either were not True or not in desired state of connected or authorized. The Sensor Node Status just went false after a few hours but by running water in a sink, I can see values are updating correctly and timely. Can you help me understand this node status? EDIT ——. After I wrote this I followed link to GitHub and I understand better but could you still help me fully understand all 4 status codes?

It’s an external variable with a state of off and on. I use it in UD Mobile to tell which irrigation cycle to run that night. It acts like a switch on and off. You don’t have to set variable value.

I used to go to Java console and set security to allow it to excute Java code in the browser to get the console to down load and execute for the first time. Then I’d turn the setting back off.

Clearing Java cache should have removed all remnants of old so try again and then redownload ISY console or launcher.

Thermostat and 24 VAC wall wort to power it. Thermostat is open. There is a flip cover to hide all but LCD display. I bought wall wort and wired it into thermostat terminals. It’s in unfinished basement on back side of wall — not pretty. Lol

Model with humidity sensor as UD Mobile snip. Images thermostat next post.

Deleted.

Do want temp and humidity inside or outside?

T7900 (3 of them) and I use NodeLink and used Venlink before it. I’m making plans to migrate my PG2 node servers and potentially NodeLink to PG3. Very time constrained now so have to phase it all out.

They are wifi touch screen Venstars.

I just got into the office. I can look at mine later today. Do you have one now or are looking at one on eBay? If you’re looking for a good thermostat, it falls very short. I’d get Venstar with Node server or NodeLink to get data into the ISY.

Yes, you can link to them. Depending on the version of thermostat, it may require you to query it. Newer versions send updates on more regular basis. I use 2 of them to monitor temperature in basement and media server closet.

Perfect! As a temporary solution, I had setup an email notification and was collecting data in an email account so just had to add text to subject for file name and to append. It took me a few minutes to figure out how to add newline. Given it's unix/linux , I assumed it was some combo of \n\r. Turned out to be a simple hitting return in the body of the message. LOL

Not questioning your desire, but I’ve never seen a thermostat that didn’t have a deadband of about 2 degrees or else it would short cycle. Also, saw ones that would under or overshoot set point by a degree and in effect create a 2 degree deadband. What are your expectations on the 1 degree deadband?

994 now but making plans for move to IoP in next few months.

Thanks. That’s my question. Write them with what and to where?

I’m writing an irrigation program that: 1. Store Flume Node server Today Gallons in variable Flume_Start 2. Turns on and off each zone 3. Store Flume Node server Today Gallons in variable Flume_End 4. Calculate difference _Start between _End into variable Water_Used At this point, how can I log DateTime, Start variable, End variable, Water_Used Network resource to send it to a service?

Michel and UD are by far the best company I have ever encountered. I’m not picking an argument (and will not be responding further)but want to make it clear to other people that may see your post that other (most) UD customers are exceptionally pleased. Your interaction is proof that they will do whatever is required to make customer first priority. I’ve never experienced a HW failure in 13 years with them. ISY99, ISY994, and now POLISY. I bought a spare isy994 couple years ago in case it ever died (electronics do that. They don’t live forever) but it’ll likely never exit the box as I am making plans to move fully to POLISY. In fact, I’ve bought a backup POLISY so I’ll never be stuck without it. It’s the center of my home automation. Large Insteon installs could never have been possible without the ISY. I have a large install and original PLM died. Michel personally called me after seeing my post. What a mess it would have been without ISY to replace all the links. Same thing for replacing a dimmer in many scenes. POLISY and it’s capability to be technology agnostic is great and getting better. This is not purely the technology but the incredible support that’s starts at the top of the company.

Michel, I had no idea they were not cooperating. How did the cloud version exist? I used the PGC version and in fact it was a big part of the reason I chose Ring devices since they were integrated within UDI environment. How can I help? I’m amazed that’s even a question they ask you as it will sell more product like it did me. It Should be more about can you make it secure etc.

I have a pc1864. The standard keypad programming is very tedious and not intuitive unless you are a security system installer. I got access to DSC software DLS 5. On hardware side, you need the 1864 panel, a TLink to get IP based access to panel for software programming and the envisalink module. There might be a way to use the envisalink module but I already had tlink so have never even looked into it. NodeLink has been fabulous and as stated it existed before node servers. In fact, there was a predecessor called DSCLink. Touchscreen keypads are very nice if still available. DLS would likely have a bit of a learning curve.

I don’t like the either. I have a FanLinc in one room. I’m going to pull it out and install the Hunter Douglas remote control module that came with it.
