jkraus, Check this post for more info on the "reversed" keys on the RL2. I found the same reversal when I registered an RL2 in 3.1.10. I just incorporated the reversal into my programs.

3.1.10 updated fine. Fixed the excessive communications from a Venstar T8000 Thermostat rf adapter Rev 2.2. Thanks UDI! RL2 support is a nice addition.

Starmanj, You'll need to purchase the Irrigation Module. Once you do, it will show in your Climate Tab. From the ISY Admin Console: Help | Purchase Modules | Irrigation Module

MWareman, Many thanks for posting this - it works great! Is there a way to embed other input into the Post message, such as an ISY Program status or variable?

Michel, Network Resource control of an ip camera and an ELK M1G seem to continue to work fine in 3.1.8. Please consider a quick release of 3.1.9 to support Logs - a feature too useful not to have. I tend to check my log every morning. Thanks.

Thanks, Michel. Upgrade from 3.1.6 went smoothly and seems to be working OK so far, including Network Resource control of an ELK M1G and a Panasonic BB-HCM735 camera. Appreciate your getting the backup issue resolved - its good to once again have that capability!

Tom C, Many thanks for your post above. I too spent some unsuccessful time trying to get a BB-HCM735 camera to work with the ISY99. Thanks to the details you provided above, it's now working great! The link to the CGI interface commands is also appreciated. With it, I've added some ISY network resource "features" to the camera, such as reducing the microphone sensitivity when the local wind conditions pick up, so the camera doesn't send sound reports due to wind noise. Func=AudioDetect&Kind=1&Data=10 Then returning it to normal once the Climate Average Wind value goes down. Similarly, the camera's motion sensitivity is made less responsive during windy conditions using commands from the CGI reference you provided. Thanks again for your post. The support one gets from this forum is just amazing.

Excellent! Thanks, Michel. Looking forward to (yet another!) new release.

Thanks, again Michel. Not trying to get under your skin, just wanted to report my observations. I do indeed have the Humidity Module installed in the T1800. And, the HUM/NOHUM jumper in the T1800 is set to the HUM position. Previously, when the rev 2.0 Insteon adapter was connected to the T1800, frequent humidity updates were received, as observed on the Thermostat page in the ISY Admin Console, and in the ISY log. With the Rev 2.0 adapter, anytime the humidity value changed, the ISY log recorded a Thermostat, Humidity, value, time stamp string. However, since installing the Rev 2.2 (build 1310) replacement adapter, it now appears that the only time Humidity reports are received is when a query is performed. Since an update to ISY rev 3.1.6 was performed about the same time as the new adapter was installed, my question really was if the Rev 2.2 adapter was causing the humidity reports not to be sent. It appears so. In looking into the ISY log from before the change of adapters, I find that with the rev 2.0 adapter, humidity reports were being received several times every hour throughout the day. But, after connecting the rev 2.2 (build 1310) adapter, humidity reports are now only received after a query. Please note: with a rev 2.2 (build 1310) Insteon adapter, I have not observed the double value humidity as Pgeengr reported above with his rev 2.2 (build 4010) adapter.

Thanks, Michel. I was wondering about the rev 2.2 build 4010 version of the thermostat adapter reported above and if it may have included the humidity reports that used to be sent in rev 2.0. I'll look forward to testing your next release.

Excellent. Glad you got it working as it's great to have (very!) local weather data.

Looks like there's no current data being published from this Backyard station. Please see the status on the right side of this url: http://data.backyard2.weatherbug.com/da ... ?ID=p11114

Michel, Since receiving a replacement T8000 Rev 2.2, build 1310 adapter a couple of weeks ago, the only time the Tstat reports humidity now is during the regular 3:00 AM Query. The Tstat with the previous rev 2.0 adapter frequently reported Humidity (often too frequently).

SteveSBE, Yes. And it works like a champ. Just enter the p number of the desired WB Backyard Station into the LocationID field of the ISY Weatherbug Settings screen. Edit: Note Weatherbug does not (yet) publish light data from a Backyard station.

I would also like to say thanks - especially to those who maintain the Wiki. The procedure for Replacing an SD Card is explicit, accurate, and easy to follow. I installed a new SanDisk 4GB SDHC (class 4) card and had it operational in about 10 minutes - it's been running fine now for a couple of days. Since others here have reported occasional problems with an ISY SD card, I thought it would be good to replace the card in my ISY which was almost 3 years old now. And, to have a spare on hand just in case. It's reassuring to know that I have a new SD card in operation, as well as two backups (the original 512MB card plus a spare 4GB SDHC).

Thanks, Michel. Any SD card speed concerns?

Seems like a good idea to have a ready-to-go backup SD card on hand. This post indicates up to 16GB SD card can be used in the ISY-99. Is a particular SD Card (or class of card) recommended?

Update to 3.1.5 completed without a hitch a couple of days ago. Irrigation Requirement calculations are now working properly. Thanks Michel and UDI!

Thanks for confirming the 1/10th value behavior, Jim. Here's hoping the fix will be an easy one for Michel and company.

No apologies are necessary, Michel. I'm rather amazed you are able to respond to as many inquires as you do so quickly! My Weatherbug module display shows English (F) in the display - I've never selected metric for use in the Weatherbug module. (But like many of us in the U.S. are moving to metric an inch at a time.) The change occurred after I upgraded to 3.1.4. Weatherbug programs that used to test for a desired value in 3.1.3, were changed to display 1/10th of that value after the upgrade to 3.1.4. So, I changed them back to the value I wanted for the test. Using the desired value tests false, but using (desired value)/10 seems to test correctly, at least for the Rain Today value.

Michel, Thanks for your response, but I'm not sure how the link provided answers my initial question. So, I'll try to clarify my previous rambling. With Climate Module actually reporting Rain Today = 0.32, the test for: If Module 'Climate' Rain Today >= 0.2 " And Module 'Climate' Rain Today < 0.5 " Returns False! But, If Module 'Climate' Rain Today >= 0.02 " And Module 'Climate' Rain Today < 0.05 " Returns True with Rain Today value = 0.32. Started in 3.1.4 with the Irr/ETo module. Was testing OK in 3.1.3. Please advise.

Michel,After upgrading to 3.1.4, my test values for Rain Today parameters changed by value/=10. For example my code in 3.1.3 was: If Module 'Climate' Rain Today >= 0.2 " And Module 'Climate' Rain Today < 0.5 " But after the upgrade to 3.1.4 the values were changed to 0.02 and 0.05 respectively. Yesterday, we finally had some rain, and Weatherbug was reporting 0.32†rain, which agreed with my weather station. However my code to test for 0.2†<= Rain Today < 0.5†evaluated false, but I found testing 0.02†<= Rain Today < 0.05†evaluated true with the actual Rain Today of 0.32â€. Please advise. Thanks.

Thanks, Michel. You are correct - the Irr/ETYo module was installed before the upgrade. Per your suggestion, I have submitted a request for reactivation. Once again, I appreciate your help.

Thanks for the new update, Michel. I successfully upgraded from v3.1.3 to v3.1.4. I also purchased the Irrigation/ETo Module – thanks for the discount! After clearing my cache and rebooting the ISY, Help, About shows 3.1.4 is installed, and Help, Purchased Modules shows Irrigation/ETo Module - Installed on 2011-06-27. I also have the WeatherBug Module installed and have been using it for over two years now in several programs. My Help, About screen shows “–Weather Information (21020)†but does not show any indication that the Irrigation/ETo Module is installed. Also, my Configuration, Climate tab status does not show any of the new Irrigation/ETo parameters as shown in your sneak preview screen shot from a few days ago. Also, Irr/ETo parameters are not available for selection in programs under Module, Climate conditions. Seems I may have missed something in upgrading to 3.1.4 and adding the Irrigation/ETo Module. Suggestions please on how to enable the new Irrigation/ETo Module parameters. Thanks.
