so how do you know which of our backups are from 2.7.7 as it is not in the name of the saved file? so if I get this right, we reinstall 2.7.7, install our backup and migrate to 2.7.10?

is this just SWLs or togglelincs also as this could explain some of my garage problems, both v35 togglelincs

fitzpatri8 tried that and did not work,but as Sub-Routine says perhaps I need to power cycle the lamplinc. Will try tonight

for the first time I have an application where I want the lamps local on/off switch to control a lamp plugged into a lamplinc. I know about load sensing, but it seems to always come on at 100%. Is there a way to have it come on at what the level the lamplinc is set?

100% agree. Michel Rocks!

I am almost sure I did not execute a DT command because I did not even remember that command was present, but let's say I did. How would one get it back?

Michel No sure it is a bug vs something either in my system or something I did. Reason was that originally I could telnet fine (even after upgrading to 2.7. then selected a couple of menu items like change IP (although I am 100% sure I did not change it), just to play around a bit then executed XS (exit Shell) and then tried to log on again, and could not. So it seems at least that the isy with 2.7.8 let me do it at least once, but not a second time, seemingly more like I changed something. This is not my area of expertise so I will leave it up to you, but just wanted to make the picture clear Thx Joe

I can access the ISY through the Java admin console no problem, and it still reports in the menu the same IP address it had before, and yes I have tried to reboot, however I did not try to ping it

I telneted to 192.168.1.102 (my static IP address- with no ports) and it worked fine. ran a couple of insturction like set IP address but did not change anything. Then I did "XS" exit shell and then tried to telent again same address as before and could not get a connect. I then tried also adding ports, but to no avail so assumed it was the XS command, Even rebooted my dual boot PC form Win 7 into Vista and even ran the telnet from there but no differnece. Even downloaded Putty telnet client, same result

still having problme, but all I was trying to do was remeber how to set the static IP address for whenI get my new isy replacement. Now I did a search and see that is in the admin cousole, cool! Is ther any reason tho have to telnet anymore? BTW, love 2.7.8 and love the batch mode, all seem very stable to me

that is what I did the first time that worked OK, but now without the port number (or with any port number) I cannot telnet anymore However the error is port 23 not 26. I beleive 23 is the telnet default. In any caser cannot telnet to the isy despite rebooting

Hi, I did a telnet to my ISY (telnet 192.168.1.102) and it came up fine, but one of the commands I gave it was XS (exit shell) to close the telnet window (log off), but I can no longer telnet now to my isy. OK, what did I do wrong this time ? Got "could not open on port 26" I think my port is 443 but that does not work either. No port was needed on my first attempt that worked OK untill I did the exit via XS

"click" (sound of light bulb in brain clicking on) Thanks!

sorry for the confusion. Yes they are in scences just not together, simply two scenes "Pool Brite" and "Pool Dim" with KPL-B in one and KPL-D in another, but want them ME. But as I type this I think I see what you mean. I wrote these two scenes early after getting my isy, now I think I see I should have made just one scene with both buttons in them but controlling the pool lite to diffent leves based on which button was pressed, OK now I think I understand, and to make them ME, make the other one off. I will try that. Guess I have to redo my scenes!

sory Michel Still confused. First: Is "grouping" and "Mutual Exclusive " the same thing? Second: I only used ME before, and some of the buttons are not in scenes that i want ME for, are you saying to add them? Not want to burden you with something I should know, perhaps this is explaned better in the wiki?

Hi Michel I am not sure I now understand the working of new Mutual exclisve screen in 2.7.8. It is unfamiliar format but also suggested not using the feature but doing it thru scenes, which does not make sense to me. Also, the ME buttons I had programmed previously, although still working, do not seem to show up in this new screen.

nevermind it finally worked

Michel despite clearing my Java Cache, removing ALL start up programs inclunding my antivirus, I still cannot upgrade after several attempts. It gets to various levels of upgrade (40% max) then always fails with java.land,null pointer xception AND socket open failure messages. Any ideas?

Hi, I would like opinions on this program, while it works most of the time it sometimes is problomatic. The problem is possible due to comminication issues I am having, but perhaps also the program. The intent is to have the motion sensor control the Garage light unless the garage light has been turned on by other KPL controllers then they take precendence. I think the logic is correct as works most of the time, but may be an easier way and if any of you get time please give me your thoughts. It is broken up inot two prgrams , for on and off. Motion on program: If Status '11.A0.A5-Sensor' is On And Status 'Garage Back Lite' is Off Then Set 'Garage Back Lite' 70% Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Motion sensor off program: If Control '11.A0.A5-Sensor' is switched Off And Status 'Garage KPL A' is Off And Status 'Garage KPL B' is Off And Status 'Garage KPL D' is Off And Status 'KPL Kitchen A' is Off And Status 'KPL Kitchen - B' is Off And Status 'KPL Kitchen - D' is Off Then Set 'Garage Back Lite' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

no email here, waiting also

thanks! OK, convinced, will do it the RIGHT way

I think the title says it all. In this case it will run an inductive load such a low voltage light xformer, is there any perceived issue doing this? Lamplinc will always be set to come at at 100%

well it may be too early to post but last night while out BBQing (in CA) my outside light that was turned on by a keypad, slowly dimmed to off by itself. I turned it on again and the same thing happened. I went in side to see if anyone had fooled with the lights, and no one had. I tried an hour later to duplicate this and could not. Like I said I know that this is little information until I get time to debug, but in the chance that someone could identify with this issue thought I would post. Thx Joe

no problem appreciated the reply...thanks much!

sub-routine thanks apostolakisl, talk about making a mountain our of a mole hil ljust wondered with Insteon at 50% what was the power Thanks all
