I can confirm I am seeing the same thing as @zerop when I duplicated his condition of the program using Openweathermap and WeatherPoly, I don't have Darksky. The following program runs true even though OpenWeatherMap shows 0 rain todayl AA Weather Test - [ID 004C][Parent 0254] If 'PolyGlot / OpenWeather / OpenWeatherMap' Rain Today >= 0.400 Inches And 'PolyGlot / OpenWeather / OpenWeatherMap' Rain Today < 0.550 Inches Then - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Changing the first statement to lower numbers always ran true, I tried 5 different numbers, always ran true. I found once the first statement hit .5 the program ran false. I tried this also on WeatherPoly with interesting results. Pointing to daily rainfall this program ran false as it should, daily rainfall is reporting as 0.03" AA Weather Test - [ID 004C][Parent 0254] If 'PolyGlot / WeatherPoly_Acuparse / WeatherPoly / Precipitation' Daily Rainfall >= 0.400 Inches And 'PolyGlot / WeatherPoly_Acuparse / WeatherPoly / Precipitation' Daily Rainfall < 0.550 Inches Then - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') However when I pointed it to Rain Rate, which is reporting as 0", this program ran true AA Weather Test - [ID 004C][Parent 0254] If 'PolyGlot / WeatherPoly_Acuparse / WeatherPoly / Precipitation' Rain Rate >= 0.400 inches/hour And 'PolyGlot / WeatherPoly_Acuparse / WeatherPoly / Precipitation' Rain Rate < 0.550 inches/hour Then - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

If you take one of the programs that currently run false and change only the values in the condition to equal the program that runs true, does that program now run true as well?

Hi io_guy, Two thumbs up! Out of all the upgrades to all the other apps and programs I have ever installed this was the easiest and with no issues what so ever. It worked right out of the gate! You have made it so easy with your script. Everything populates quickly and with no errors. Thank You!!! Two questions. First I moved the "node" file from home>pi to another folder I have all other data in for ease of copying for backups. Do you see any issue with moving the folder to a new location? Other than having to change the location in rc.local? Second, I had old Nodelink started as a service and would like to do the same with the new version. With mono ExecStart=/usr/bin/mono / was used in the service to start nodelink, what would I need to change the file locations to for dotnet? Thanks for all of you work and help! Tim

I am on Comcast/Xfinity and I have noticed getting texts from ISY has been random for the last two or three weeks or so. Have not been getting all of them as I used too. I don't know if it is related to Comcast or not but I have not made any changes to ISY since then. But as of yesterday I have been getting some, maybe 50% of them.

Google Win32 Disc Imager and download a copy to your win10 machine. Here is the link to SourceForge. Obtain a SD card to USB drive, similar in looks to a thumbdrive with a slot for the SD card. Here is a link to one but there are many different types and styles. Have Win32 Disc Imager running when you insert the SD-USB drive into the USB slot of the computer. Type a name for the image and a location on your drive then click "Read." The image of the SD card will be written to the location you selected on your win10 machine. Its really pretty easy. If you ever need to restore your SD card to a previous image the process is pretty much the reverse. You select the image you want to restore the SD card to and hit "Write" I should caution you however. It is possible to accidently erase or over write your SD card if you are not careful and paying attention. So, don't do like I did one time, don't be in a rush. Take the time to double and triple check the process as you are reading/writing.

Hi asbril, I am running both NodeLink and Polyglot on my pi and have been for quite a few months now. I am even running Motion for ip camera recording which hogs a lot of cpu all the time. You may already do this but just in case...back up your pi3 image from the sd card before installing Nodelink. That way if by some slim chance something goes wrong you can always restore the sd card image to a previous backup and everything will be as it was before. I am sure there are plenty of sd card image programs but the one I use is Win32 Disc Manager. I make a backup of the image before any upgrades or changes to the pi which has saved me a lot of grief over the years.

No wonder it didn't work. I had changed the ISY port number years ago and just assumed it would still be the same. Thanks, it is working perfectly now.

Sorry to horn in but I have been trying to do this as well. The issue I see is the port number. From firefox I can set a variable using the portal url with no port number but in the ISY network resources I do not see how to send without specifying a port number.

A friend sent me the new Denon HEOS 7 http://usa.denon.com/us/heos-7-large-home-speaker-system. Got it set up yesterday and was impressed with it. Sounds good and is quick to control via ios or android phone/tab. I was wondering if anyone has checked it out and is controlling it from the ISY yet? Thanks, Tim

Technically it will pass insteon signals just fine. I used one (actually it is still in my panel). I found that the signal isnt as strong on the phase it passes to especially if there are more signal suckers on that side but it does work. Depends on the size of the house, distance of wires and amount of signal suckers. I would try it, worst case you have to add powered phase couplers. Tim

JMC, once you update to the latest fw you may have more optional stations to choose from as I did. I live in a small town and there was a personal weather station available to me within a 1/2 mile away. Bob, thanks for your help and suggestions. I ordered a 0105C from Acurite and was able to find a discount coupon online which gave an addition % off the entire order on top of the sale price and free shipping. Total cost was like $105. I decided to go with Meteobridge software and ordered the TP-Link they recommended. I have had the system up and running and supplying data to weatherbug, wunderground, pws for me and a couple of others now for over a week without issues. Currently I too am waiting for NOAA registration to go thru. Thanks, Tim

To me the benefit of using from/to is for simple programs such as: If From 10:00PM to 6:00AM Then Turn something on Else Turn something off The program only evaluates twice, once at 10 and once at 6. Once you start adding other conditions to the IF things get more complicated.

You nailed it on the head. At 10AM every day the program evaluates and if 'IsSabbathOrHoliday is false or IsOnVacation is true the program will evaluate fase and turn the lights off. Breaking the program in 2 would be the answer. IF FROM 10:00:00AM TO 4:00:00PM (same day) And Program 'IsSabbathOrHoliday' is True And Program 'IsOnVacation' is False Then Set Scene 'Links / Fixtures / Main Floor / Dining Room Lights' Activate Else IF Time is 4:00:00PM And Program 'IsSabbathOrHoliday' is True And Program 'IsOnVacation' is False Then Set Scene 'Links / Fixtures / Main Floor / Dining Room Lights' Deactivate Else

I don't find it hard to believe that this can't be recreated. I can't even recreate it on my own machine at this point. I agree, I have not had this problem either.

While I do not have a Mac and don't know much about it nor do I use iTunes via the ISY, you might look at MPD (Music Player Daemon). I don't know for sure it will work for you but it is pletty light weight so it doesn't consume a lot of resources, at least on my pogoplug. I run mpd on my pogoplug (running Archlinux) which uses a play list containing 3 or 4 internet stations (that I selected) that I can cycle thru with my X10 remote (via programs on the ISY). But that playlist can also contain music from your computer or server as well. Good luck! Tim

evilpete, I was updated to 2.0.22 and had them update the radio firmware as well. The programs are now working as expected! Thank you for the help and for sharing your work! Tim

Ha ha ha, and stretches over many many pages and years as I recall. Tim

Thanks very much for the info. Looks like I have some things to think about. Tim

Bob, Is this the acurite model you have? http://www.acurite.com/all/acurite-professional-weather-center-with-aculink-remote-monitoring-weather-alerts-temperature-humidity-wind-rain-01055.html It looks like they bundled a bridge with it. If it will work it looks like a great deal. Does the bridge look like yours. How long have you had your system and are you happy with it? I am thinking of getting one and running your script on a pogoplug. Thanks, Tim

Thanks, done. I was under the impression that the upgrades were automatic as it was updated with the new gui a while back. My firmware is 2.0.17. Hopefully they are quick with their responses. Thanks again, tim

Hello evilpete, Thank you for the code. I copied the code to my pogoplug running Archlinux. Went thru and changed the ip addresses to my eagles address and the same for the mac id in the various scripts. Dont understand how the setup.py is supposed to work (or if it is supposed to be run). Maybe you could give a brief outline. When I run meter_status.py I get demand value and current value displayed but then it errors out with: Wed Mar 12 15:03:53 2014 : Demand = 0.573 Kw Amps = 2.388 Traceback (most recent call last): File "./meter_status.py", line 102, in main() File "./meter_status.py", line 28, in main print_currentsummation(r['CurrentSummation']) File "./meter_status.py", line 55, in print_currentsummation time_stamp = to_epoch_1970(cs['TimeStamp']) KeyError: 'TimeStamp' I do have python 2.7 installed and the scripts are pointing to it. Can you think of what dependency I might be missing. Oh, and when I run plot_power.py it seems to lock up the eagle. ('Unexpected error:', ) Error replystr = 0x7fffffffffffffff 0x13500100c2e2bd 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 Traceback (most recent call last): File "./plot_power.py", line 135, in main(reagle) File "./plot_power.py", line 29, in main print_data(eg) File "./plot_power.py", line 59, in print_data rh = eg.get_history_data() File "/usr/home/shipley/Projects/Eagle/RainEagle/EagleClass.py", line 328, in get_history_data raise RainEagleResponseError("get_history_data : Null reply") RainEagle.EagleClass.RainEagleResponseError: get_history_data : Null reply I am sure I am doing something wrong, hopefully you can help. Thanks, tim

Anyone using "nist1-sj.ustiming.org" (San Jose, CA) for your NTP Server (time sync) be aware that they are having sync errors so you might want to change to a different server. http://tf.nist.gov/tf-cgi/servers.cgi Tim

Thanks so much Mike, that's what I was afraid of. I wish I had a school close by. Tim

IndyMike, You mentioned monitoring 3 airports, by any chance was KMYV one of them? So far today, as I intermittently checked on the rain today, WB has been reporting rain from that site. Just wondered if it was one of the three. Thanks, Tim

Yes, too much traffic in my opinion. I have heard of some using a red lens on the kpl button to catch their attention. It would be a nice feature if Smartlabs were to add a flash function for the buttons though.
