MrBill

It starts over. I wasn't sure, so I created this quick program: AA testor - [ID 016B][Parent 0001] If $stemp_test >= 1 Then Set 'LR Lamp 1' On Set 'LR Lamp 2' Off Wait 5 minutes Set 'LR Lamp 1' Off Set 'LR Lamp 2' On Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') to start $stemp_test was 0, I turned on Lamp 2 manually, lamp 1 was off. then I changed the value of $stemp_test to 1 and as expected lamp 1 came on lamp 2 went off then I manually turned on lamp 2 again then I changed $stemp_test value to 2 and lamp2 turned off again, lamp 1 stayed on.

Happy to hear you got it working, not completely sure what you did but it works!

If you want to fix it so that the program will always finish it needs to be broken into two programs: Program 1 If $WirelessWaterSensor is 1 Then Run Program 2 (then) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Program 2 (Disabled) If (nothing) Then Disable Program 1 Send Notification to 'Email' content 'Swamp Tank Full' Set 'OR-Xmas_Austrian' On Wait 25 minutes Set 'OR-Xmas_Austrian' Off Enable Program 1 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Reminder Disabled means that a program won't run because of a change in the evaluation of the If statement. A Disabled program will still run when called by another program. (Disabled doesn't mean Never). It should also be noted the second program must disable the first or the same issue will occur as when it was one program.

He's running a version of polyglot that doesn't yet have backup.

The default port for polyglot on polisy is 443. Should be that unless you changed it.

I believe 11,27,29, and 38 refer to the ID number of the network resource that caused the error. In other words it's telling you which Network Resource caused the error.

It's actually fixed as of 5.3.2... but don't stop there just go to 5.3.3 where it's also fixed. After 5.3.3 is loaded you will need to get all the queued items written by putting the device in programming mode and writing updates to the device (it's on the device right click menu) once they are all written they shouldn't come back from using "adjust scene"

That's the part I assumed but never tried. Natively the device has to keep the cloud server up to date, otherwise the reverse proxy feature of the app could never work when your outside the local network. When your phone app is suddenly used away it has to know how to reach the module being manipulated.

From the way I understand it the local API is 100% local, it's just not documented (or not documented by tp-link, there's a lot of reverse engineering discussion available online). They do "phone home" tho in the form of some cloud instance that allows you to reach them via the app from outside your network. If your local network allows you to create traffic rules I'll bet you could block the device from making its cloud connection and it would still function via the local API, that's only a guess tho. They work perfectly local only with the nodeserver/ISY. The 4-pack is always like 24.99 (if it's not wait a few days and it will be again.) resulting in normal everyday if purchased in 4 packs ~6.25/each For Prime day they've been getting a lot of press out of discounting the 1 and 2 packs to about the same level, but the 4 pack stayed at its everyday price. I was hoping for a deal on other model that reports load, but it so far doesn't look like it's going to get a prime day discount. I only need 1 of that model tho so if it's not discounted I'll just order it.

I nominate the Kasa Smart plug: https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-Kasa-Smart-Wifi-Plug/dp/B07RCNB2L3/ (there's also a slightly more expensive model with load sensing built in.) The local API is undocumented, but @Jimbo figured it out and wrote a node server. I'm certain if you're not interested in running the nodeserver that you could in fact peak at his code get what you need to craft a NR, just be sure to reserve IP addresses so they can't jump IP's. Can't beat the price either. I've purchased 12 and finally had enough devices to automate christmas last year.

I started typing one reply then I realized you said the above.... so I googled and found out that they use "IT-36002 QuietCool RF Wireless Control Kit" as the operational controls. Products that might allow you to control the fan via faking the remote controls are the Bond Bridge and the Broadlink RM4 Pro. There is a Bond Bridge node server. I thought there was a Broadlink node server too but I'm not seeing it in the list. Disclaimer: I didn't research the frequency of the "IT-36002 QuietCool RF Wireless Control Kit" and have no idea if it's compatible... I'm just pointing out possibilities.

Try using https://alexa.amazon.com (using your wife credentials) to delete all references again and then let her discover devices again. If that doesn't work I would disconnect the Skill and try the above again, then re-add the skill.

Open a ticket. support@universal-devices.com They are fast to respond although slower on weekends that weekdays.

@LarryCRetired Let me know when you have more questions.

You're absolutely correct, it's not quick and easy. I try to stay on top of it but it seems like later I always find things no longer in use that I forgot to delete. At the beginning of this year I took the time to do a comprehensive ISY cleaning Project. For variables I copied and pasted the list into excel. You can select all rows of the variable screens by clicking the top entry and holding and dragging down. then type Ctrl-c to copy and click into cell A1 of a spreadsheet and paste. Then delete: I deleted all the extra columns value columns because they paste as garbage, then I could resize the rows back to single line. Then i deleted rows where I knew with out looking the variable was still in use. At the end with the remaining row I used Find to search programs for that variable... I ended up deleting like 25 state variables from either not being used or as I went through this process either saying "Hmm, I know better now, I really don't need this variable" or "that really should just be an integer variable". Then rinse and repeat with the other variable type. Network resources I didn't have as nice of luck with making an external list. I ended up making screenshots of the list and actually PRINTING (uggh), then the same method as above, I crossed off the rows that i knew where still in use without looking then used Find > Raw Text to search programs for all or part the name. In the end I had quite a few to delete, I wasn't very good with ongoing maintenance of this list. There is an Export button the the NR page that i hoped to use to Export all and craft a list from whatever it exported.. I never figured out how to make it export anything tho, the file created always seems to be empty.

Follow the directions in the first post of the thread linked below to use the launcher: If you were upgrading from a V4 release to 5.3.0 some of your programs may require manual intervention or fixing. Basically fix the above issue first. make it so that your firmware and UI revisions are the same. then go back to the Programs summary tab and recheck for yellow errors, if you find any look at the program... where you see Green text that's a comment that the upgrader added in place of a programming line that couldn't be automatically updated. Add the missing program line back and resave. You can leave the green text comment or remove it, it doesn't matter.

Effectively you're asking how to make a 3-way switch setup with ISY and Insteon, so that when one switch is turn on the LED indicators on the other follows. This is very easy to do with the ISY. Create a scene, add both Insteon devices as a controller. Boom you should be done. If that's not working for you, Start over, delete the devices and scene from the ISY, then Factory reset both switches (pull out the air gap/programming button, wait 10 seconds, press in and HOLD until the beep stops or ends, then release). Create a scene, add both Insteon devices as a controller. Boom you should be done.

there are 3 ways to compose messages in the notification nodeserver.... 1) Short messages. Link 2) Notify Nodes. Link 3) creating Network Resources on the ISY and sending them to the nodesever. Link. Short messages could be "Good Morning" or any repetitive text. Personally I didn't find much use for them. The notify nodes are good a couple of ways, they can actually be added to a scene and send a message anytime the scene turns on or off. That could be good with a door sensor for example BUT ONLY IF you always want to know when the door opens and closes, for me that doesn't work out because I only want to know if a door opens or closes when another variable = 1 (or true). So then you could use that same notify node in a program, and set the messages and fire it from the program. The method I use most often is 3) which is alot like i used to do it when i was using Pushover strictly from Network Resources. It's a little easier to create the Network resources needed for the nodesever tho. without the nodesever the strings you need are a bit complicated and unforgiving... with the node server there's less formating required. This is also the method that can be used to send data... such as variables or temperatures. Because you can include any of the substitutions. Most of my notifications are this type "Kitchen Refrigerator 36.2F" or "Kitchen Freezer Low battery 2.56V" I also like adding a timestamp to my messages even tho I don't really need to but I just want to know especially back when i was using Text messages so most of my notifications end in "[${sys.time12} ${sys.date}]" on it's own line so i know when the notification left the ISY and how long it took to get to me. I did warn you this was probably one of the more complicated nodeservers to get going.... but if you understand wireless tags (and I know you do) you've got the ability for sure. BTW... I'm a little bit younger than you but not too much...

Do you mean you upgraded the firmware via the portal? Like this.... That probably updates to 5.3.0 since that's the official release.... I wish that tool didn't exist, people seem to have problems with it.....

@Michel Kohanim Just noting... the Locative version of the portal node server does work, and please don't get rid of it.

I do see where @Jimbo states in the requirements that > 2.2.6 I have no idea tho what won't work correctly because you're using 2.2.3. I also have no idea what's wrong after you upgrade where it won't save your ISY's credentials. When it comes to how polyglot works under the hood, I really have no idea.

I was going off the fact that OP says Vera sends commands to the ISY. Later on he also says Vera doesn't speak to Insteaon.

try it on one first and make sure it works like you expect.

That sounds very likely. (disclaimer: I know nothing about Vera, but if I was was turning on a scene then the other switches should be responding also.) you could try this program as a workaround: If Status switch1 is not off then set hallway scene on else set hallway scene off

You should have a pre-formed blocks to save everything, you won't need the custom block like your screenshot shows. The place that you put your User Key and Application Key looks like this: For the name blank you can use anything. I used the numbers out of my street address, another idea for name is "Pushover" or anything up to 8 characters that you want to type. If you don't see those fields look for the "Add Pushover Service Nodes" and click that area and see if it expands. All the prefilled block appear after you get the "I understand and agree" blank filled in an saved. Also I can't help with the fact that Polyglot isn't saving your ISY credentials, I'm using a Polisy and you have a Pi. Only thing I can suggest is have you tried restarting the Pi? I think that fixed it for me once when I had that problem with the Polisy. Anyone else have any suggestions for @LarryCRetired and his Polyglot not saving the ISY credentials?
