@bpwwer thanks, that is useful information. I have been doing some testing of @sjenkins hunter douglas plugin with him over the past week or so. This involved deleting the plugin, rebooting via AC, reinstalling the plugin, rebooting again via AC then testing functionality. So, there were multiple boots via AC and no power cycling during that time until I had the problem. The problem of the disconnected plugin occurred after the latest updated plugin was installed. Could it be the multiple reboots eventually caused this? This is pretty much all I can add. Do you still think it is worthwhile submitting a ticket

OK set shades at 50% and both tilt and secondary to 50% for foyer shade and clicked set shade position. No tilt happened hunterdouglas_3-2-2024_34833_PM.zip

I can live with either convention but if it is not inconvenient I would prefer 100% to mean fully open and for the open button to fully open the shade to 100% . I have a few Zwave shades as well and that is their convention. But if you want to stay consistent with G3, that's ok by me since I will be using a program to control them. I will try the tilt now and get back to you

Interesting. If I set shade position to 15%, it opens to 85%. If I set shade position to 85%, it opens to 15%. Looks like flipping the open/close also flipped the positioning

Just tried the 45% position and that worked. Might have done something wrong before. Set tilt at 100 and clicked set shade position. Nothing happened. Then clicked open and shaded open all the way. Clicked close and shade closed but still no tilt. Clicked tilt open but not tilt. Clicked tilt closed but no tilt hunterdouglas_3-2-2024_15211_PM.zip

I noticed that AC shows the shade as 100% open now when it is in fact fully closed (see pic). I am testing the foyer shade in the pic below. Clicked open in AC and shade opened all the way but primary shade position shows 0 in the AC. Set shade to 50% and clicked shade position. Shade is still open all the way but shows 50% in the AC. Set shade at 100% and clicked shade position and shade closed fully. I have not tried the tilt because setting the shade posion at intermediary values now seems to just fully open or close the shade hunterdouglas_3-2-2024_13938_PM.zip

I tried that twice from the AC with no luck. I just resorted to power cycling the eisy and that worked. thanks... back to testing

@sjenkins When I installed the latest version, it said it was disconnected. When I tried to uninstall it, it failed with I installed another copy of the plugin in another slot with the same result; so, now I have 2 disconnected version of the plugin. Thinking this might be a PGx issue I submitted a ticket Gary

I have a plugin that says disconnected but if I try to delete it I just get a message that says it failed to uninstall. I installed another copy in a different slot but I have the same problem with it as well Gary

@sjenkins did some more testing. Only two issues that I found. 1. Tilt does not work and tilt field in AC is blank. This is not an issue for me as only two shades have tilt capability and it is not something that is ever used. 2. As I mentioned before, if I click the close button the shade opens fully. If I click the open button, the shades closes fully Scene activation and setting shade position both work well. Now I can get rid scenes if I want. They were only there because the cell phone app needed them hunterdouglas_3-1-2024_34756_PM.zip

@sjenkins Bingo! Looks like it is working. Congrats. I noticed open and close button on shades do the opposite. Will do more testing later. Scene worked also hunterdouglas_3-1-2024_114056_AM.zip

@sjenkins Still no joy. Log file is attached. Not sure if this is significant but when I send rest commands the port 80 is included in the address. hunterdouglas_2-29-2024_25036_PM.zip

@sjenkins just tried the new version but shades and scenes still not responding to comm ands from AC. I have attached latest log file. hunterdouglas_2-28-2024_111502_AM.zip

@sjenkins No, thank you for doing the journey. I much appreciate it. I agree with you about the names. Looks like a concatenation of different items that I created in the cell phone app. I will likely rename them at some point but for now I can see the full names in the PG3 nodes list; so, I can link to the AC name for clarification.

@sjenkins I tried sending open and close commands as well as trying to activate scenes but none worked. I see some error messages in the attached log file hunterdouglas_2-27-2024_24141_PM.zip

I notice that full names show up in the debug log but are truncated in the AC. I assume this is a limit of the AC. I attached one more screen shot.

Wow... Nice - thanks, looks like everything is there in the AC. Just need to spend some time today figuring out exactly what I am seeing and doing a bit of testing. If you need me to do anything else please let me know. I have attached new log file and a screen shot from AC hunterdouglas_2-27-2024_115158_AM.zip

@sjenkins ok did as you suggested. I still don't see shades in the AC. I rebooted eisy after deleting and again after reinstalling. I have attached the log file. hunterdouglas_2-26-2024_105227_AM.zip

@sjenkins Thank you for doing this. I am no hurry and would be happy to help anyway i can. Enjoy your hockey game.

@sjenkins Wow thank you very much! I was not expecting this. I updated to 0.1.2. I get a message saying "start up". Not sure what it means. I rebooted eisy but I still do not see any shades under HunterDouglas in the AC. I attached a log file. Please let me know if there is anything else you would like me to do Gary hunterdouglas_2-25-2024_120645_PM.zip

@sjenkins thanks. I have 8 shades so not worth it to replace everything with gen 3. I am using network resources for some limited functionality (open/close) now based on info from another poster a few years ago. Although this generally works, it is not totally reliable. Recently I added some zwave smartwings shades which wife likes and have worked pretty reliably

FYI... Got this reply from Hunter Douglas If you currently have PowerView Gen2 shades, hub and repeaters they are not compatible with PowerView Gen3 Gateways. PowerView Gen3 is Bluetooth operated and the motors run on a BLE signal. The only way to use PowerView Gen3 Gateways is to purchase new PowerView Gen3 shades. PowerView Gen2 shades cannot be converted to PowerView Gen3 operation as the internal components are also not compatible unfortunately.

OK thanks. I will look into the V3

Not sure what version the gateways are but I have had them for a number of years. I get {"message":"Not Found","error":{}} for http://192.168.2.239/home. I am not getting a response for the other one

Yes I did. I added the gatewayip key with a value of ['192.168.2.239','192.168.2.233']
