  1. I also struggled to launch Admin Console after updating Java before realizing that I failed to place the "-" in front of the runtime parameter setting. FWIW
  2. Just had what appear to be queued up applets run. Tested some others and they are working as before. Other users may want to check theirs. Regards.
  3. Checked my error log this morning and am seeing one of the following every 5 seconds: Thu 2021/12/02 04:29:51 AM System -100 [DHCP] state=RENEW Thu 2021/12/02 04:29:56 AM System -100 [DHCP] state=REBIND

  5. FYI, my status... 1. SNI checked 2. Timeout set to 20,000 (the maximum) 3. https Client Settings Verify box not checked
  6. Here is mine after a couple of attempts... Time User Code Message Wed 2021/12/01 06:01:19 PM System -170001 [TCP-Conn] -256/-140002, Net Module Rule: 4 Wed 2021/12/01 06:02:14 PM System -170001 [TCP-Conn] -256/-140002, Net Module Rule: 4
  7. I checked the SNI box and increased timeout incrementally up to 6000 to no avail. I also informed IFTTT and they acknowledged fixing a webhook problem but it didn't fix mine. I too can initiate an applet via IFTTT website but not from ISY program. The timing of reported failures around midnight 11/29/21 is curious. I'll stay tuned for further info. Regards to those trying to help!
  8. Thanks for reminding me to try the simple solution (rebooting) first. Unfortunately it didn't resolve the problem. The Event Viewer shows the following: Net-Resource: Failed connecting to maker.ifttt.com. Attached images from UD Mobile and one of my Resource Editor items. Hopefully this info is responsive to your request. Thank you.
  9. I'm having the same problem. Just checked again and no go. The error messages are meaningless to me so can't tell where the issue is.

    I have used both the Insteon Syncholinc and Aeotech Smart Switch outlet to monitor sump pump activity but did not like having the pump operation subject to an inline device failure. I now use a Dwyer current switch to sense the pump running. The dry contacts are wired to my ELK system for monitoring but could be integrated into any number of monitoring options.

  11. My effort to stay current with ISY and Z-wave technology has resulted in diminished capability. I started my ISY life with a number of Leviton Vizia rf+ devices including VRMX1 dimmer switches. These switches reported manual operation to ISY and met all of my programming needs. (running v. 4.x.x) The latest Leviton Z-wave dimmer switch is DZ6HD and is Z-wave Plus according to Leviton. I installed one of these recently and discovered that ISY does not recognize its manual operation. (running v. 5.0.16) Some forum research enlightened me to the "hail" function and I was able to query it with a program to update its status on ISY. Clunky but it works. Yesterday I installed the new Z-wave 500 dongle and updated to v. 5.3.0. Now none of my old Vizia switches report manual operation status. I found a number of choices in the "Z-wave options" menu but nothing seems to enable manual reporting. I have added all Leviton switches to the hail program mentioned above and it does work but is very slow to respond. I originally assumed this shortcoming to be a Leviton issue but it now appears to be a UD issue.
  12. I do have the portal.
  13. 1. ISY is at version 5.0.16C 2. Updated username and password in NodeLink config 3. Have tried to contact io_guy via Automation Shack website but contact page does not work.
  14. Thank you for these steps. I was able to make some progress but still getting error messages. Do I need to configure something in the ISY? Obviously in over my head. Here is what I see now:
  15. I have tried as admin and don't even get the "dos looking" screen. thanks
  16. Trying to install NodeLink Windows 10 PC and have been unable to get beyond this message: on I'm not very well versed in the dark world of DOS and could use some direction.
  17. If you want just on/off try Aeon Labs ZW097 Dry Contact Sensor with a current sensing switch like Dwyer Series CCS.
  18. Leviton has replaced Vizia RF + with Decora Smart https://www.amazon.com/Leviton-DZ6HD-1BZ-Decora-Dimmer-Technology/dp/B01N4F487U
  19. I'm not sure this is of any help but thought I would share how I ramp up lights in a program loop with Z-wave and 4.6.2. The brighten command suits my needs but the percentage could be specified for finer control. Evening Lights 1 If Status 'Sensors / Multisensor Front Porch' < 5 lux (Luminance) And From Sunset - 1 hour and 30 minutes For 1 hour and 45 minutes And Status 'Great Room Ceiling' < 44% Then Wait 10 seconds Set 'Great Room Ceiling' Brighten Run Program 'Evening Lights 1' (If) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
  20. larryllix: I was not aware of those arithmetic operators. Thanks. MrBill: My pump empties the sump in about 15-17 seconds so not busy very long. I agree that would not be ideal for long-running cycle times.
  21. I use three programs with a Synchrolinc. Program 1 counts pump cycles. If Control 'Sensors / Sump Pump' is switched On Then $Sump_Pump_Cycles += 1 $Sump_Pump_Cycles Init To $Sump_Pump_Cycles Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Program 2 counts pump runtime in seconds. If Control 'Sensors / Sump Pump' is switched On And Control 'Sensors / Sump Pump' is not switched Off Then Repeat Every 1 second $Sump_Pump_Run_Time += 1 $Sump_Pump_Run_Time Init To $Sump_Pump_Run_Time Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Program 3 calculates daily and YTD cumulative data and sends an email report and resets counters. If Time is 12:00:00AM And $Sump_Pump_Cycles > 0 Then $Sump_Pump_Cycles_YTD += $Sump_Pump_Cycles $Sump_Pump_Cycles_YTD Init To $Sump_Pump_Cycles_YTD $Sump_Pump_Run_Time_YTD += $Sump_Pump_Run_Time $Sump_Pump_Run_Time_YTD Init To $Sump_Pump_Run_Time_YTD $Sump_Pump_Minutes = $Sump_Pump_Run_Time_YTD $Sump_Pump_Minutes /= 60 $Sump_Pump_Hours = $Sump_Pump_Run_Time_YTD $Sump_Pump_Hours /= 3600 $Sump_Pump_Minutes_Calc = $Sump_Pump_Hours $Sump_Pump_Minutes_Calc *= 60 $Sump_Pump_Minutes -= $Sump_Pump_Minutes_Calc Wait 5 seconds Send Notification to 'Email' content 'Sump Pump' Wait 5 seconds $Sump_Pump_Cycles = 0 $Sump_Pump_Run_Time = 0 $Sump_Pump_Cycles Init To 0 $Sump_Pump_Run_Time Init To 0 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Email report body is: Sump Pump ran ${var.1.1} times yesterday for a total of ${var.1.2} seconds. YTD 2017: Total Cycles: ${var.1.4} Total Run Time: ${var.1.7} hours and ${var.1.6} minutes
  22. The simple solution is two programs. One for on and one for off using the times you want the scene acted upon. Your time range is not relevant because the "then" action will always trigger at the start time of the "if" range. I find the use of "else" actions to be limited for the very reason you describe. The time range feature is best used when you want to control the time frame when an action is triggered by some other event.
  23. I have a similar situation for my garage ceiling lights using the Aeotec MS. I use two programs, one for ON that includes a test for ambient light: If Status 'Garage Ceiling Lights' is 0% And Status 'Garage MultiSensor' < 11 lux And Control 'Garage Motion' is switched On Then Set 'Garage Ceiling Lights' 100% Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') And one for OFF: If Control 'Garage Motion' is switched Off And Status 'Garage Ceiling Lights' is 100% Then Set 'Garage Ceiling Lights' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') I prevent the MS turning off the lights when they have been turned on at the switch by using the % levels. My switch is programed to turn on the lights at 96% so the MS doesn't mess with them if they are below 100%. I added a timer program to turn off lights that are manually turned on to compensate my forgetfulness. If Status 'Garage Ceiling Lights' < 100% And Status 'Garage Ceiling Lights' > 0% And Status 'Sensors / Garage Motion' is Off Then Wait 30 minutes Set 'Garage Ceiling Lights' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
  24. For my z-wave dimmers I use: Then Repeat XX times Set 'Lights' Dim Wait X seconds The Dim command reduces 2 or 3% each time.
