I have reason to believe that the currently shipping Insteon Open/Close Sensor 2843 no longer has a Heartbeat signal. Either that or I have 4 recently purchased defective sensors, or who knows what else might be going on. I have 10 Open/Close Sensors (2843-222), 6 of them are REV 1.B installed a couple years ago, and 4 are REV 2.1 installed recently. On the ISY 994i, when I look at the Administrative Console Main tab, all of the REV 1.B have the Current State of the Heartbeat node showing "On" at all times, while all of the REV 2.1 show “Off”. I’m using a program to constantly monitor each of them. The REV 1.B sensors respond every 24 hours with a Heartbeat signal. The REV 2.1 sensors never respond. Thoughts anyone?

Thanks cowinger - you are way better than I in finding these things. The setScheduleRecordConfig that you suggested is not quite what I was hoping for. Nor was I able to find the command I need in those newer pdf files. What I'm effectively trying to do is "press" the Record button seen on the Live Video web page. With my ISY994i I am sensing events where I want to record video on the Foscam camera. So when such an event is triggered, I want to send a manual Record command to the camera for a recording to occur immediately at that moment. I suppose I could use setScheduleRecordConfig to schedule a recording to occur at that moment, doing a painful calculation for the scheduleN parameter, and then delete that scheduled record when I'm done, and I guess I'll do that if there's no better way. But since there's the command snapPicture (which manually snaps a picture) I would have thought there'd be commands perhaps like "startRecordVideo" and "stopRecordVideo" or something like that which simply causes a manual recording to start and stop. Very strange that they would not include something like that.

Thank you cowinger - that is a great start. But there seems to be an important command missing for recording. There is a command to snap a picture (works great), and there's a command to configure the alarm recording. But I couldn't find anything to manually start or stop recording. Did I somehow miss it? Is anyone aware of the command to do this?

Folks I'm finding that stusviews link above to "here's an example" results in an http "404" error". Looked like a good resource - is this or something like it available elsewhere?
