Papa C

Any theories why the above two programs don't work the same? In the upper (the door) it works exactly as I aimed. Close the door, and pretty much disables the motion sensor until the door opens then the motion sensor takes over. The bottom one however, doesn't appear to ever disable the motion sensor program, resetting the count from what ever it is to "3" upon motion. So, if you're in the shower without the door closed (reason for fast on) and someone walks in and leaves the count is reset from "11" to "3".... It SHOULD disable the motion sensor program should it not?

There is a BUNCH of the "S" switches popping up on EBay....

Front Bath Door - [ID 0022][Parent 0005] If 'Front Bath / Front Bath Door' Status is Off Then $FrontBathLight = 25 Stop program 'Front Vanity Auto' Else $FrontBathLight = 1 Run Program 'Front Vanity Auto' (If) This one works, when I can change the node, I'll switch it to "Status On" ------------------- But this one (nearly identical) while it sets the State correctly, when there is motion it sets it to the value specified in "Front Vanity Auto" Front Bath Shower - [ID 0004][Parent 0005] If 'Front Bath / Front Vanity Light' is switched Fast On Then $FrontBathLight = 11 Stop program 'Front Vanity Auto' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') I can actually watch it change the state from 11 or 10 to 3 when the motion sensor referenced in "front vanity auto" goes off.

Yeah that's more or less what I'm looking for. I'm actually turning the light on with a multisensor 6. What I want to do is lick the light on for a longer timer if the door is closed. Did not get the chance to even open the laptop this weekend. Maybe later this week. Got it working with just calling when the sensor is off (door closed). I've also got it working when you turn switch on fast on. HOWEVER even though I'm calling the program that sets a state when fast on, it resets the timer when motion is detected...

Huh.... Yeah, I see that in the options. I'll have to take a look at that this weekend and see. Thanks! Wound up with: If OFF set state X.... It works, just not what I was wanting it to do.

The default mode of this switch is to turn on responders when open, turn off when closed. Is there a way to swap this?

On both my phone and on my laptop if you look close you can see a faint blue but not near what all the others are. Some of the other links are even underlined. This one in particular just tends to blend in until you know it's there. I completely missed that page until Michel sent it to me. Working with him and Google right now to try to link back to Google after going to Polisy. Unlinked and tried to relink and Google consistently said UD not available. From the portal it errors and then checks that it's the correct account but still doesn't.

Michel, the link in #8 under Migrating from 994 to Polisy doesn't stand out like the rest. I missed that as I was going down the list as I was migrating. I totally MISSED that page until you sent it to me yesterday. Might bolden or underline that link?

This weekend moved from ISY to IoP. Missed the page that said to hit the migrate button and on my screen it was OFF the bottom of the screen so I didn't even see it. But, restored the backup to IoP followed the rest of directions and everything seemed good. Excluded and Included all ZWave and everything seemed to work fine, but no spokens. Ok, so spent some time on portal and entered all of them for Amazon and Google, discovered and sent to google, WALLA! All seemed to work. Happened to think, checked with Alexa, Lock Door, she did, unlock door, she said to do it manually, great! Then Google, lock door, she did, great! UNLOCK door, she did.... NOT cool! Ok, so lets look in the app to see if I can take care of that. Nothing is in the Home App. Hmmm, everything works. So decide to unlink it thinking if I relink everything will populate in the app. Unlink, ok fine. Try to link, constantly get the message "Could not reach Universal Devices. Try again later". So, after working with Michael he felt best course of action would be to start over. He reset my license to the trial put the time on the isy and I went at it again. Set it all up again, license transferred off ISY to IoP, but specifically said ZERO spokens transferred from Alexa and ZERO from Google. Ok, so even if I have to enter them all again so be it. I enter a few and try the link again, same thing, "Could not reach...". But NOW, in the portal if I try the "Send to Google" button, it errors out, asks if my email is the correct account (it's got it correct) and nothing happens. Amazon seems to be working fine, but cannot connect to google. Going through Google support there shows NO links to Universal Devices. It looks as if UD thinks I'm linked as it KNOWS my account and doesn't want to link an account that is already linked? Still waiting to hear more from Michael but looking for any other ideas?

The friend I mentioned has the same isy as I (zw-ir pro). His had it. So, I went about adding it. Seemed simple enough, "If 3 am" then "Query ISY".... EXCEPT I couldn't find "Isy" as a device.... Finally typed "I" to start typing Isy and it "Popped Up" in the bottom of the list. I then saved it, so we'll see what happens. Just an FYI for anybody trying to add it and can't find Isy as a device.

Not meaning to sound huffy, I just never heard of it and wondered what it should do or might cause if I didn't have it? Just chatting with a friend of mine, he too said he thought it "came factory" but I logged in and looked in my programs and only see what I've written. So, what does this query produce? Does it update links? You disabled yours with a failing plm. Is that because it might have messed with links? Yes, I've got the 994zw ir pro. Just ordered a Polisy pro, trying to catch up on reading to prep for change over and get everything "ship shape" to try to make it as smooth a transition as possible.

So I need to write a program that queries the system every night? Have honestly never done this. I can't tell you how many years I've had it and my entire lighting system is Insteon. Hmmmm, will have to put that on my list. Suppose this carry over and need to be done on Isy on Polisy? Purpose? Just to update links and device statuses?

I missed something somewhere... Nightly 3 am query? When did this start?

I'm on 5.3.0 with three Schlage zwaves (connects, I think). This is the furthest from my ISY. There is one other lock between the two as well as a Zooz relay and a steel washer and dryer set. After moving to the 500 series card, deleting and reinstalling, they've all been pretty solid.....

I should have specified that I meant AFTER factory reset update before starting in rebuilding the system....

I'd add to this that first thing you do is to update the system to the latest. Also check that if it's got ZWave you've upgraded the board to the 500 series.

Yeah, I'd like to use the home and away status but even more I'd like to use the motion sensors in the protects....

So, why did you go to 5.014? Was going to tell you to make the jump, I did a few weeks ago to 5.016c and got to tell you, it really was painless! As for the rest about documentation, I've been searching as well and what you're finding right here seems to be THE BEST and only documentation I've been able to find.....I've had a couple of the MS2's since they came out and now thinking there are newer versions of what I have, there for sure is newer firmware. I tried the On only settings and seems like things just seem to work better if you do the On and Off, just letting the sensor handle it rather than programming.

One other issue that has popped up recently. From the get go I've always had a group in the Alexa app for "All Lights". As I've added lights and switches to isy control I've also added them to this group. Recently, when giving the command "Alexa, turn off all lights" as she's going down the list turning them off she will announce "That command doesn't work on that device!"..... All the lights go off (or on if issuing the on command) but she just says command doesn't work. I went through deleting and slowly adding devices to the group trying to find the offending device. What I found is it doesn't matter which device, as long as there are nine or less. When I add a tenth device I get that announcement. Thoughts? Anybody else see anything like this?

I have a similar problem with my fanlincs and Alexa. I have 5 (Master bedroom, back bedroom, front bedroom, Living room, Dining room.) the Master bedroom speeds are all named: Master fan High Master fan Medium Master fan Low Master fan off. 99.5% of the time I can say "Alexa, turn on Master fan XXX" and it works fine. Once in a while she'll respond with "I found multiple devices with that name, which one did you want?". You respond with "Master Fan XXX" and it will work. In the Dining room same thing, "Dining Room Fan High" or "Dining room fan Low" work probably 85% of the time. Medium or Off more often responds with the "several devices with that name..." ALL the others, Living Room, Frond and Back bedrooms ALWAYS respond with "Several devices, which one".... All of them have Master Light, Living Room Light, Dining room light, front bedroom light, never question, The kitchen, garage, workbench, bar, entry, front or back porch lights EVER question. ONLY the fans. All of the fans are set up in identical scenes ISY, the portal, and Alexa app. I've tried changing names to Dining Fan, but didn't' change anything. I started with the Master Fan, followed by Dining and Living room. As I remember it was ok when I did those. They went in and the problem started shortly after the V2 upgrade. Thoughts? I'm thinking about adding a spoken like mentioned above, trying "Fan Diningroom" but that sure seems backward sounding.
