So to the guys that prefer a program over a scene. Does your program just consist of the "IF" being a controller(keypad) for me, and then just a bunch of turn off commands for each device? I will give the program instead of scene a shot.

Thanks again guys, next time I will just kill power to the house to reset it, instead of listening to my wife for 45min...

OK guys, I have a scene with most of my devices 70+ that I use a double tap on a keypad to shut-off everything that I want when I leave the house. Worked fine, except I realized I must have missed some devices on my 3-way switches and decided to redo that all "All-off" scene, removed everything from the scene just fine. Then selected all devices and added it to the "all off" scene thinking I can just remove the devices from that scene that I do not want in it, better than adding them instead. Since it took for ever I got distracted with other stuff, and left my computer be. Forgetting that it would go to sleep. Came back and it was sleeping, once woken it seem to keep doing its thing, but suddenly most of my devices would go thru on-off cycles every few minutes at 9pm at night after my 3 kids went to bed, so this left me with a screaming baby, 2 giggly girls that thought it was hilarious and one very pissed off wife.... I tried everything, first I restored a back-up that did not work, then I tried unplugging the PLC that did not work, finally I did a device restore and after about 45min everything stopped cycling on-off and was back to normal. So my questions, first why did it keep doing the on-off cycle once I unhooked the PLC? I always thought that was a good fail safe when stuff goes bad? Secondly what is the best way to recover from a crash like that? And of course I forgot to do a backup before this massive change (dumbass) and lost some new installed switches and programs, guess that was a good learning lesson...

Alexa has the option to train by individual voices as well. Options to use it is still limited to shopping and music lists.

So we can have something like weatherbug push a notification "alarm" for certain weather conditions like tornadoes?

Amazon did it again and broke device names with latest update...
Ajax replied to ahwman's topic in Amazon Echo
This is really starting to get frustrating. I had a scene called "Some" , which worked great for turning on some lights when I walked into the house, but now I get the dreaded " Found several devices that share that name..... Any fixes yet? -
Di Did you get this figured out?
-
Any updates to this? I just got on the scene of HA last 6 months or so and was curious if I can use ISY, echo,network module, nest- to make an announcement like tornado warnings using either echo or nest. I did see that Amazon made an announcement that they will allow notifications soon, but just curious if there are other ways?
-
Just redid the scene and then did a program that works, thanks!

Yes, and you think that would work, but I dont get a response from the lock when I push the KPL(controller) Did a test and results are below: Fri 03/17/2017 04:42:08 PM : [GRP-RX ] 02 61 29 13 00 06 Fri 03/17/2017 04:42:09 PM : [CLEAN-UP-RPT] 02 58 06 Fri 03/17/2017 04:42:09 PM : [iNST-SRX ] 02 50 3D.C3.C9 3B.96.22 E1 13 FC LTOFFRR(FC) <html><font color="red">----- Lock Test Results -----</font></html> <html><font color="red">[Failed]</font> MasterBedroom KeypadH (3D C3 C9 </html> <html><font color="red">[Failed]</font> ZW 004 Schlage Door Lock (ZW004_1)</html> <html><font color="red">----- Lock Test Results -----</font></html> Fri 03/17/2017 04:42:18 PM : [ZWAVE-TX ZW004_1] ...

OK this is getting me thinking thanks for the help, appreciate the directions and actually think I have it working! Although I can only test it from work but will have to try pushing the KPL button at home and see what happends, but yes short and sweet Backdoor - [iD 0041][Parent 000A] If Status 'ZW 004 Schlage Door Lock' is Locked Then Set Scene 'Lock' Off Else Set Scene 'Lock' On
-
Amazon had a sale a few weeks back for $175 for the black one (which I wanted) but I have also gotten one of Ebay new for $150. OK that helps me understand why its not running, but I thought if the "IF" statement is not true then it runs the "Else" statement. So what I was trying to accomplish is, If the KPL is switched off--->then Lock the door, or if the lock is manually locked then turn off the the Scene(KPL button). If neither the above is happening then turn the scene ON (KPL button) Should i change the KPL to a controller in the scene and try use: If Control 'MasterBedroom KeypadA / MasterBedroom KeypadH' is not switched On Or Control 'ZW 004 Schlage Door Lock' is switched Key/Manually Locked That way I can change the LED in that KPL to red, so when at night I glance over I can see red and know the door is unlocked, but if everything is off I am secure. Thanks
-
Sorry to bring this topic back, but I am trying to do something similar below is my program, I have both the lock(be469) and KPL H(toggle only) in a scene called "Lock" as responders only. The program works but the KPL button does not light up when the door is unlocked? BackDoor - [iD 003E][Parent 000A] If Control 'MasterBedroom KeypadA / MasterBedroom KeypadH' is switched Off Or Control 'ZW 004 Schlage Door Lock' is switched Key/Manually Locked Then Set 'ZW 004 Schlage Door Lock' Lock Set Scene 'Lock' Off Else Set 'ZW 004 Schlage Door Lock' Unlock Set Scene 'Lock' On
-
Great thanks, so you guys recommend I go down the polyclot/nest road since both would be new to me.
-
Guys, Just installed a BE469 deadbolt, and had an interesting thought. I would like to have my deadbolt unlock automatically when my Nest Protect smoke alarm goes off. How would I accomplish this? I have an ISY994i with Z-wave, isy portal, Echo Dot's. The reasoning is that I have young children that cannot reach the deadbolt yet and would be nice to know that that would not stop them from getting out incase of a fire! Thanks
-
Before I attempt this wanted to see if there is a delay, since my last attempt produced a delay. For example the local level is set 100%, which is what I want during the day. I turn on the switch it goes to 100%..then the program runs and lowers the % to my night load of 50%
-
I have six DOTS in the house and my twin 4 year olds have one in each there room and they love it the ask for music and to control the lights. My 1.2 year old boy is another story, if he finds one in his reach it gets unplugged, drives me nuts bc I am never around when he does it, and there is no way I can hid the plug from him. He does not unplug anything else just the echo dots...

Leak Sensors - Another (Suggested) Complete Program Package
Ajax replied to rabbit1543's topic in ISY994
OK got that figured out for the "Heartbeat Status", (Alert-Variables-sLeakMasterBath-Add Variable-${var.2.10} ) But what about the "Leak Status", It does not looks like your example- ${sys.node.2E 11 9B 2.ST} If I go (Alert-Node Address-Add Variable I get ${sys.node.#.addr} Do I manually enter my LS address (36.BA.69), or am I way of base? Thanks -
Leak Sensors - Another (Suggested) Complete Program Package
Ajax replied to rabbit1543's topic in ISY994
This is great! Thanks for all the hard work! This is my first program using variables etc. but not very familiar with it. I did have one question related to the last step of "customized emails" I basically copied everything into the areas, but not sure with the "Heartbeat and leak status" system nodes? Basically what do I between the { } for the status. For example: -
Its ok, did not actually realize there are people that are not familiar on the function of a basement! Any hows I think I have it figured out. I was disabling the wrong program I should have disabled the "Girls On" one instead the one that calls to run the motion program, not the motion program itself.
-
I am up in Iowa, we all have fully finished basements with a walkout or egress windows which is code for a bedroom around here. Not sure what you guys do in Florida since I have never been there...
-
Nickp, I will have to give your program a shot but at this point it is a little above what I can comprehend at the moment, once I figure out the simple programming I will start messing with variables. Do you know why the program "Override" does not work? It seems to disable the program until motions is sensed and resets to enabled. Girls On - [iD 0009][Parent 000B] If Status 'Basement Shower' is 25% And Control 'Basement Motion-Dusk.Dawn-Sen' is switched On Then Run Program 'Motion' (If) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Motion - [iD 000C][Parent 000B] If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Set Scene 'Basement Motion Lights' On Wait 1 minute and 30 seconds Set Scene 'Basement Motion Lights' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Override - [iD 0019][Parent 000B] If Control 'Stairs KeypadA / Stairs KeypadB' is switched On Or Control 'Stairs KeypadA / Stairs KeypadB' is not switched Off Then Disable Program 'Motion' Else Enable Program 'Motion'

No idea, but I did see this http://worldwide.bose.com/productsupport/en_us/web/article_733_standby_mode/page.html

OK I of course could not leave my program alone and tried to tweak it a little, but sometimes its acts strange. The "Basement motion lights" contain 2 light sources-each light source as a virtual 3-way, so 4 switches total in the scene. Everything seems to work fine, but sometimes the one source will not turn off after the timer ends? Below is the programs I use: Girls On - [iD 0009][Parent 000B] If Status 'Basement Shower' is 25% And Control 'Basement Motion-Dusk.Dawn-Sen' is switched On Then Run Program 'Motion' (If) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Motion - [iD 000C][Parent 000B] If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Set Scene 'Basement Motion Lights' On Wait 1 minute and 30 seconds Set Scene 'Basement Motion Lights' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Override - [iD 0019][Parent 000B][Not Enabled] If Control 'Stairs Main Area' is switched On And Control 'Stairs Main Area' is not switched Off Then Disable Program 'Motion' Set Scene '3-Way Switches / Stairs' Off Else Enable Program 'Motion'

Boy I guess sometimes I overthink it! That was really simple and works great. Thanks. Will CHeck in those LED's
