Thank you. Yes, the light bulb moment for me was that every and each trigger forces the entire IF statement to be evaluated/re-evaluated. And if I understand it correctly, if you have a "Wait" in the body of path, then it also forces the IF statement to be evaluated (continuously?) while in the wait state. If this is true, how often is the IF statement evaluated while in wait state? Is it as often as possible by ISY processor tasks? cheers.

Thank you all. Yes, I understand the triggers, but how the MS trigger can also force the past triggers (time triggers) to be re-evaluated, that part will need some getting used to for me. cheers.

why would the ELSE not run continuously any time that is not between the specified times?

I could be wrong but looks like one of these: https://www.mobotix.com/other/Products cheers.

Not quite all system activity, I just want to log certain metrics, like temperature at predefined intervals and saved as csv or similar. So when the client complains, I can show him the trends. cheers.

Cool, let us know the name once you remember. cheers.

This is a great read, thank you very much. I see I would need network resource module which is fine, I will get that. Do you suppose this method should work to push something to like google sheets? I wonder how I tell google sheets to increment the row based on newest data. cheers, Amigo

Is there a tutorial/document that explain how and what is needed so I can trend, say 15 temperature sensors at 15min intervals for about 1 month before fifo takes over? Can I store these logs on an SD card in ISY in csv or similar format? Also, is there a summary page in ISY where the status of the z-wave network/nodes are displayed and shows what is online/offline? cheers, Amigo

The reason I wanted to know, coming from commercial automation, those kind of specs normally gave a realistic idea of how far can the embedded box be pushed, node count, programs, graphics, etc. The embedded systems that I am used to also had a full on webserver where graphics (floor plans, etc.) would be served from the device, so CPU and Ram mattered. If that does not make sense in this case, can you guys give a me some realistic numbers for a stable system, like how many z-wave devices can I realistically add to an ISY and how many programs can be run, before the hardware shows sign of strain? may be this is too generic of a question?

Thank you. What would be required to figure out the RCS' z-wave thermostat schedules? Do I need to get RCS to send you some documentation and you can say yay or nay? Or is it not that simple? cheers. Amigo

Any z-wave thermostats in UDI line up that allows full access to their internal scheduling via ISY?
-
Not too sure if this is the right thread for this, but I wanted to know if there are any thermostats, z-wave or Insteon that ISY has access to their internal scheduling, read/write? I want to be able to directly affect the schedules onboard the tstat to cange the times of the internal schedule from the ISY interface rather than having the schedule in ISY. Is this possible with any of the Tstats that UDI supports? For example, I wanted to buy a INSTEON 2441TH Thermostat but before I do I wanted to know this. I understand that I probably can disable the scheduling feature of the tstat and have the schedule in ISY toggle things, but if the other way above is a possibility, I find that a more elegant way of control. cheers, Amigo

ok, thanks. Will read through venlink forum. I was eyeing model T4900SCH , seems to be built for small commercial and schools, which will be my target but I can't find any pricing from common online suppliers, will have to dig deeper.

Thank you for the quick reply. I will be using the thermostats in commercial applications, small office buildings with up to 10 rooftop units/Thermostats. Will venstars be able to withstand commercial use in your opinion? Do Venstars support DegC display and settings? I am planning to have a buddy of mine write the interface on a small embedded linux box that will also support other building automation protocols like BACnet, LON, Modbus. So we can tie in the boiler system and chiller system, etc. as well. cheers.

Hello guys, newbie here, wanted to get some feedback on wifi thermostats that you guys have been using. I need one that has a well documented API so I can integrate multiple under one roof. So far I am looking at www.radiothermostat.com since they have a documented API. But then I saw Venstar seems to have an API as well. I am not interested in cloud based API, I want to connect and control locally. Also, anyone know if honeywell has released any APIs for their wifi stat? cheers.
