@mmb To echo what @Geddy said... I think the idea is that UD mobile will someday replace the admin console, and UD mobile will work on computers with larger screens and full keyboards as well as "mobile". Like @Geddy I think the java based admin console will be around for a long time.

pg3x is superseding pg3. It won't be a choice for the user going forward, there is no need to evaluate the major features and benefits. eisy ships with pg3x, there's no choice there. pg3 is being deprecated on Polisy and will someday be gone.

start.jnlp not starting on Win11 "Select app to open..."
MrBill replied to JoelW's topic in IoX Support
I agree with @DennisC the file assocation appears to have gotten hosed. the best method is probably remove and reinstall java from https://www.java.com adding tho that you said your running files from the browser... which generally can't be done anymore. Use the browser to download the file, then run the file from your computer. If you're using Win11, you should have no problem using IoX launcher, which means download start.jnlp, open the folder and double click start.jnlp, the first time its run it will add an icon to your desktop AND open ISY Finder. After the first run, just use the desktop icon. -
@Jimini The portal or mobilinc connect have nothing to do with using Pushover. You can use Pushover with either or neither.

No. use of 127.0.0.1 literally means "contact another process on the same local machine. It's automatic. nothing to do. https://www.lifewire.com/network-computer-special-ip-address-818385
-
127.0.0.1 is a special IP known as "local host", using it points to another port on the same machine.

@Geddy@Jimini Pushover has been around for years. Geddy's correct, one time 4.95 charge. Family Sharing applies to the iPhone Family plus anyone else that downloads the app and logs into your pushover account will get there app set to subscribed as well.... or at least it did before family sharing... One time 5bucks is nothing... I feel like I need to send them more because the value far exceeds my $5 investment years ago. Pushover's API probably offers more than new to the playing field UD Mobile. Disclaimer: I haven't used UD Mobil notifications, and don't know exactly what can and can't be done at the point. with pushover the sender can change the messages priority. Pushover was approved by Apple for "Critical Notifications", which means Pushover can send messages that bypass the DND switch on the phone and any Focus group enabled. Critical Alerts (Priority 1) will always be delivered reguardless of the DND switch and Focus Groups. (There is an extra switch in iPhone Settings that must be turned on.) Additionally the pushover api can adjust Notification Sound, and message styling via HTML... likewise the ISY can generate any message. I actually use alot of that... frogs, ducks, a ships horn (very attention getting), critical alerts HTML for message color coding etc...

To put this thread back on topic tho... it appears that calling and the SMS/MMS email gateway operate differently than dialing voice calls. SMS/MMS emails must still be emailed to 10dig@ and not 11dig@. 11digit flat doesn't get thru the Verizons SMS/MMS email gateway.
-
Adding the 11 digit ... "1", the country code USA, as a prefix when dialing a phone number or storing a contact does not add any numbers to the number pool. 10 Digit dialing is roughly equivalent to 11 digit dialing when making a phone call within the US. I routinely save all my contacts actually as +1xxxyyyzzzz meaning 11 digit preferenced with a +. that means when I'm connected to the cellular system in another country all of my contacts will work correctly without modification, when dialing from the foreign country. The SMS and MMS text gateway by email... i.e. @vtext.com and @vzxpic.com are an entirely different routing system. I can't get 11dig@ either to send a message to my phone.... 10dig@vtext.com and 10dig@vzwpic.com seem pretty fast today 60-90 seconds but I've personally encountered HOURs of delay... I turned on my ISY test program again.. it sends 4 randomly timed text messages per day with a timestamp when sent.

Telnet protocol uses port 23, I named the wrong port above, sorry. Select Telenet for Connection Type and the port will aoutomatically be set to 23, don't change it. The the IP address in the "Host Name (or IP address blank)" then hit the Open button. (The IP address should be naked.. the IP only, don't type http:// or anything before it) the credentials being asked for next are the same as used for the admin console. After that you should see: Scroll back up a few lines to see the top of the menu....

You should probably open a ticket. the 300 board should still be reporting version 4.55.00 after upgrade. After swapping the card, you need to log into the admin console and Help > Manually upgreade and load a full firmware file. that's be the case after factory reset as well. The bootloader's copy of whatever firmware it put in place isn't a complete copy. no Putty can be used to TELNET to ISY994 on port 22 23, 994's don't know how to SSH on port 22 (the protocol isn't built into the hardware), not sure where you got the idea to try port 126....

DHCP Reservation is the way to go. DHCP alone is a random pool address.

@jckinneman You need a program(s) and there are multiple approaches: some might use a structure like this: If Geofence triggered AND time is sunset to Sunrise (next day) then Turn on driveway light else (nothing) or break it into two programs If Geofence triggered then Run Program2 (if) else (nothing) Program2 (must be disabled) If time is Sunset to Sunrise (next day) then turn on driveway light. I mention both methods because some people have difficultly getting the first method to work. The second method also is easier to follow logic wise somethings. Note: disabled programs still run when run by another program or run manually.

@bmercier I have a horrible Comcastic cable connection. I had a point of Comcast stutter last night that where I got about 5 rapid messages that the portal was online/offline etc. I also have multiple ISY's at this point... identifying them by UUID isn't the best choice, Alias from the portal screen would be a better choice.

If vtext.com or vzwpix.com work reliably for you that's amazing. Both at&t and verizon can have horrible delays (and lost messages). this is documented in literally 100's of this forums threads from the past. I did note that you said "Most problems I've seen recently when sending to 10Digit@vtext.com. Most of these services now require 11Digit@vtext.com. Verizon is one of them." so as a test i just emailed myself two messages one to 10Digit@vtext.com and one to 11Digit@vtext.com. the 10 digit test came through in about 90 seconds, 10 minutes after that I still haven't received the 11Digit@vtext.com test. In addition every Verizon page help page that I can find still says 10 digit including this one: https://www.verizon.com/support/text-messaging-faqs/ for the record: the Verizon MMS gateway ( 10dig@vzwpix.xom) usually works better, even for all text messages. Additionally the messages aren't truncated into multiple 160 char segments like vtext.com verizon text delayes can be anywhere from a few second to many hours to never. Pushover notifications are always less than 5 seconds and usually more like 1/2 a second to delivery.

Pushover has more posts on the topic because it existed long before UD Mobile had the ability to send push notifications. Either are probably a fine choice... Pushover and its methods are known to be stable over a long time, but at the same time no one is complaining about Push notification in UD mobile... so pick whichever you'd prefer. There are 3 methods to get messages to pushover: ISY direct to Pushover server ISY to Notification node server to Pushover server ISY to Push node server to Pushover server #2 is by far the best choice. #1 doesn't retry if there's an error. #3 the developer doesn't appear to be working on the node server anymore. To add subsitiuaiton variables see this page: https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-994i_Series:EMail_and_Networking_Substitution_Variables there are a few more that aren't documented anywhere. If you navigate to in the admin console to Configuration > Emails and Notifications > Customizations and build a template there... the dropdowns will allow you to add a few things not documented on the wiki page.... You can copy and paste those items into your Pushover (or UD mobile notifications) Personally I use Pushover, and will likely continue to as I have a few other devices such as Home Assistant, my ubiquiti router, etc that also use pushover to send messages.

@johnnyt heh... you must be new around here...😀 ("here" meaning UD customer...) but apparently you're not... your forum profile indicates you joined August 13, 2010... Everything happening with releases tho is pretty normal: When the masses are having trouble, where the release is pretty much unusable another update comes quickly... Otherwise releases, at least from the customers view, tend to move pretty slowly.... bugs that don't effect literally everyone may exist for years (I can make a mile long list of things that "should be fixed", some of those issues/bugs have existed for many years) nobody knows the next release number until the release. likewise guessing when the next release will come is futile... and asking won't get an answer... .... situation normal.

when PLM is connected to eisy, rebooting eisy is required. Also Insteon support must be enabled (before the reboot) in the admin console Configuration tab. If all that's been followed what happens when you select Tools > Diagnostics > PLM Info / Status in the eisy admin console?

I don't use z-wave so I can't point you to the documentation, however just reading this forum I've been aware since 4th quarter of last year that ZMATTER changes the designation. to ZY, I don't remember why but there's probably a post.

Looks like the discussion has wound down, but "All time Rain" in a tempest is a pretty strange value, and i'm not sure of its purpose. It's an arbitrary value with no value between stations because one station may have started this year, while the next was "sometime" last year, and another station is 3 years old. Also my Temptest was replaced by the factory in January, at this point my YTD value isn't even correct.....

@rcwagner Do you have Java 8 from https://www.java.com installed? or some other version? double clicking a .jnlp file an having IE open seems like Java might not be installed correctly, or the wrong version.
-
negative. Win11 and Java 8 from www.java.com are just like Win10 and Java 8 from www.java.com, no difference whatsoever... Been on win 11 for a long time, nothing different with admin console.

For those that don't realize the significance of the current releases area of the forum being locked down, it was done so that users can subscribe to that section of the forum.. and ONLY get release announcements and not a lot of noise following. Go here and click "follow" on the right side of that screen.
-
I assume that's a typo since the build portion matches: but to be clear are you using Java 8, update 361?

That's unfortunate. I'd rather get the node server fixed, so that i didn't need to worry about needing to restarting it at an odd time. My node servers are running months at a time. I have noticed Kasa quits lately but I'm using the unsupported Polyglot V2 node server. I'll be moving to eisy and Polyglot v3 sometime in the next few months, if Kasa still dies then I will spend the necessary 5 minutes to drop @Jimbo.Automates and log and note.
