@apostolakisl Not sure if this will help but this is how I check for armed status: https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/41305-installed-and-working-but-couple-items/#findComment-367200

oops...I spoke too soon. I had not disabled by program that does a rediscover when a disconnect occurs. Just did test again and this time no automatic reconnect occurred. Still need to do a rediscover

@bpwwer the automatic reconnect works well for me now. Did a blue iris update which shuts it down, installs updates, then restarts it. The AC showed node server to remain connected through out the process. The AC server status went to disconnected then back to green when blue iris restarted after the update install. Thanks again for this. Gary

still won't update to 1.2.7

@bpwwer thanks that installed ok. will test later

Tried a Delete and Reinstall but still shows disconnected

@ericmaas I experienced a similar problem but with random lights coming on (with older insteon modules since newer ones do not seem to respond to all on commands). Mine were triggered by DSC motion sensors which activated lights using programs when motion occurred. I believe the motion detectors were triggering too often creating collisions sometimes. I have restructured my programs to minimize the ONs being sent which has so far I believe been helpful. I had originally tried including the motion detectors as controllers in scenes but this did not work as I could not restrict them to only sending ON and not OFF commands Gary

@bpwwer I just installed that version by doing an update. It says version 2.0.4 but it says disconnected. A restart or start did not help. Should I delete and reinstall? Gary

@bpwwer don't know if this will help but I did a test where I stopped Blue Iris then restarted it. I attached the log file. Not sure if your message is there or not. Watching the AC blue iris screen, I noticed that the Server Status went to from Green to Disconnected after about 10 to 20 seconds or more. My program noticed this and after 1 minute the program did a rediscover. I noticed that the AC showed server status as green then went to disconnected than back to green 8 times and I got 8 emails saying it was reconnected. After that it stayed in the green state. Here is the program that I use to check for a disconnected state: Blue Iris Disconnected - [ID 002C][Parent 0001] If 'Blue Iris' Server Status is Disconnected Or 'Blue Iris' Server Status is Red Then Wait 1 minute Send Notification to 'Gary' content 'Blue Iris Disconnected' Set 'Blue Iris' Re-Discover Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Here is the program that checks for reconnection: Blue Iris Reconnected - [ID 0052][Parent 0001] If 'Blue Iris' Server Status is Green Then Send Notification to 'Gary' content 'Blue Iris Node Server Reconnected' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Here is a screen shot of the connected server: BlueIris_11-15-2024_24248_PM.zip

I also noticed that the node server did not automatically reconnect but since the rediscover button now works, I use a program to do a rediscover if the node server becomes disconnected. I put a 1 minute wait in the program to allow the blue iris update process to complete Gary

@Guy Lavoie very interesting. Having used the Ocelot and Leopard myself to control my X10 network in the 90s had often made me wonder about IoX's program execution order Gary

@bpwwer Many thanks for doing this. Update did not work for me. I had to delete then reinstall to get your new version. I restarted IoX and the blue iris entry was there but I had to restart the plugin before it displayed a server status (green) I then updated blue iris to its latest version which forces it to shut down and restart. IoX plugin status then showed disconnected. I waited for a few minutes (maybe not long enough?) but no automatic reconnect, then clicked on the rediscover button in IoX. The plugin status then showed green. This was good because I can now hopefully use a program to do a rediscover if the plugin becomes disconnected. The rediscover button in IoX did not work for me in the older blue iris plugin. thanks Again Gary

Thanks. I believe the variable or light status can only be changed by the code that follows the wait. I removed the 2nd OR condition from the program above just to simplify things but I still get identical times. Not really a problem since everything works ok but just puzzling. FYI here is the program that triggers the "OFF" one above Utility Room Lights On - [ID 0041][Parent 002F] If ( 'Alarm Panel / Basement Stairs Motion' Zone State is Open Or 'Alarm Panel / Furnace Motion' Zone State is Open Or 'Utility Room near Stairs' is switched On ) Then Disable Program 'Utility Room Lights OFF' Set 'Utility Lights' On $s_Utility_lights_switched_on = 1 Enable Program 'Utility Room Lights OFF' Run Program 'Utility Room Lights OFF' (If) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

Here is one of the programs. Utility Room Lights OFF - [ID 0042][Parent 002F] If $s_Utility_lights_switched_on is 1 Or 'Utility Room near Stairs' Status is On Then Wait 12 minutes Set 'Utility Lights' Off $s_Utility_lights_switched_on = 0 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') If I look at the status it shows the program as running (all green) and lights go off after in this case 12 minutes. Both conditions are true while the program is running

I have a program that uses a wait for 20 minutes to shut off a light when it has been turned on. The program works correctly; that is, it shuts the light off after 20 minutes but I noticed that the last finish time is always the same as the last run time. Should the last finish time not be 20 minutes longer? Gary

I had a similar experience with a plugin dimmer module many years ago. I have a number of plugin modules that are primarily used to power various Christmas decorations. Wife plugged a fountain into a dimmer module once. The dimmer module did not play well with the pump motor and caused disruption on the network. Sometimes things went on when they should not and sometimes did not go on when they should

I just replaced my approx. 10 year old serial PLM connected to my Eisy with a new serial PLM. I followed the wiki replacement instructions and everything is working fine now but it was an interesting journey. This will be my 3rd PLM. I started quite early with insteon. I have about 120 insteon devices with 4 or 5 being wireless RL2s, a dozen or so Zwave devices and 11 node servers. The only wireless devices other than the RL2s are some Yolink devices. The reason for the replacement was erratic behavior with my lights starting about 6 months ago. I had a "all lights off" event when one of the KPL button was pressed. Never had this happen before. The only lights impacted were about 15 or so of the older insteon switches that respond to the all off command. A few months went by with no problems but then I experienced a few "all lights on events" which I also never had before but only when an insteon switch (KPL I think) was activated but this did not always happen (but was sometimes repeatable). Then I just started occasionally having only a few of the older insteon lights coming on (but not all of them) but this was infrequent and random but very annoying (WAF!). The replacement process took about 3 hours. During the replacement process I had 55 popup messages saying "could not communicate with...". and 3 times there was a message saying that the system was restarted or rebooted and to create a new session which I did. At the end of all this, everything including the programs were working as normal and I have had no random events for 3 or 4 weeks now. Wondering what the significance was of the popup messages since everything works fine. Gary

@Javi Yes the app works ok as far as I can tell but if I try to retrieve a lists of PG3 node servers all I get is that error message. I press ok then I get Please Wait Getting Node Server data from Polyglot but then no response after waiting a anumber of minutes. For what it is worth, I got the same result using the previous version so I upgraded hoping it would correct the issue

When I press the Plugins (BETA) icon using android version 1.1.77, I get error code 500 getEisyYhingName is not a function. Gary

@sjenkins I don't believe calibrate would be of use to be with G2. Also I noticed that 0.1.11 does not show up in the store yet

@Whitehambone no, it would be nice if the node server could be restarted via a program if it disconnects but as far as I know this is not possible. I also tried setting the state to green and/or doing a re-discover in a program if it disconnects but that did not work. It also did not work if I did in manually from the AC. Right now I am trying using a program to notify me if it is disconnected then I will manually restart it

@sjenkinsGlad to be able to help. Really appreciate you adding in the G2 functionality even though you did not need it for yourself

@sjenkins For me personally, I don't see any need for using any type of automations with the powerview app now that your plugin works.

@sjenkins Yes that works (see below) Clicking the scene "On" button moves each shade to its 15% position. Thanks

@sjenkins I did not set up this scene in the powerview app only in the AC. I had previously tested single room scenes that I set up in powerview and they worked fine by pressing the activate button in the AC. Would you like me to set up a multi room scene in powerview and test that in the AC?
