Triggers and conditions and IFs, oh my!
Thank you, I'm using the Harmony Polyglot server by Jimbo to get the status of the Harmony 'scene'. How do I actually add the OR's within the parenthesis? When I try to do that it ads everything on a different line and breaks it. I'm doing all this through the admin console programs section, thanks!

Triggers and conditions and IFs, oh my!
Hi guys, with the new update to being able to add nested if's with 'And And' and 'Or Or' I am hoping someone could point me in the right direction. My scenario: - I have 1 motion sensor in the basement - I want to be able to check for a few conditions to auto turn off the lights if they are met If motion sensor status = off (My motion setting will switch the sensor to off if it doesn't see motion in within 10 mins) AND (Logitech Basement Xbox = not on OR Logitech Basement PS4 = not on, OR Logitech Basement Watch TV = not on) Then Turn off basement lights My issue comes that I'm unsure how to do the various OR statements. Right now what ends up happening, is that I can do it for 1 Logitech Hub scenario, but i'd like to include the others. The reason I want to have that variable is that without it, I'm sitting on the couch so the motion sensor doesn't see me and after 10 mins turns off all the lights. Can anyone provide some guidance? Thank you

Is this possible? (Auto play Music when touchdown)
Hmm, yeah looks like i have to make some decisions. I was hoping I could tap into my Amazon Echo's to play the music, but I am reading up that there's no way to do that unless you invoke the Echo with the 'Alexa' command, so that sucks. I might buy a couple Google Mini's cause i heard those can play music without a wake up word. I'm hesitant to change inputs on my receiver as i believe that will just add to more lag.

Thank you all, is there a resource or website i could follow to see how possible this would be?

Is this possible? (Auto play Music when touchdown)
Hi All, I got this idea from a post on Reddit so I am wondering if the following is possible an if so, with what equipment. * Basically, when my team scores a touchdown, I would like my LIFX lights to flash Maize and Blue (I have two strips) and then have the fight song play on my speakers (or even echo devices if possible). I have my speakers connected to a Denon receiver. I was thinking the following to start . When touch down, i press a button and it invokes a scene that starts the LIFX lights (using Polyglot) and then do a network resource command to tell my Denon to play an mp3 file - If i get that working, maybe i get a little more fancy and have some sort of script that watches a twitter feed that when it see's certain words, it will they go through the routine above Is this possible with just a ISY? Would I need anything else? Homeseer? Home Assistant? Thanks!

Best tutorial for a button to turn everything off?
Actually, I'm not opposed to having the controller be in the scene, I just wasn't sure the best way to do it. Sounds like I should. @lilyoyo1 Can you let me know a little more about your zones? I have a feeling I have mine set up in a similar way. Example: For my basement, I have a scene that has all my lights in it so when i press the button on top of the basement stairs, it turns on all the basement lights. I have a similar setup in my foyer and kitchen. I'm interested how you add these scenes into programs to simplify administration. What I'm hearing about my initial question is that I just add my kpl as a controller for the scene and keep the program as is? I'll be home tomorrow so i'll get to mess with it. Thanks again for the tips!

Interesting, so I can't create a program that would turn the scene off AND set the button control state to off as well?

Best tutorial for a button to turn everything off?
Hi Stu! Glad you are still around, you helped me in the past I was thinking of turning off the scene with a program that if any of those lights in the scene are set to 'on' it will turn off the scene.

Best tutorial for a button to turn everything off?
Hi All, I was reading up this old post: https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/8469-follow-up-to-good-night-scene/ where it talks about creating a scene that would turn off all lights in the house. Is this still the best route where it's done with a combination of a scene (with no controller) and a program (that says, if button is ON, then run 'All Off' scene.... the all off scene has all the switches in it as responders to respond with the 'off' setting). Just wanted to check to see if this is best practices before I set it up, thank you!

ISY Portal vs MobilLinc vs Network Module

Hi Paul, I'm looking into setting something up for my sprinklers as well. I have 10 zones, does that mean I need 2 ezFloras for this? Also are there detailed instructions anywhere of how to put this in and connect to my current system? Thanks!
