Release 2.8.11 Is Now Available
elvisimprsntr replied to Michel Kohanim's topic in Previous Releases
i've been updated my ISY the same way I have always done per the instructions, which the version reporting problem started occurring with 2.8.10 betas. 1. backup system 2. manually update 3. exit all browsers and download managers 4. open java control panel to clear cache 5. clear browser cache 6. launch browser and enter url http://192.168.xx.xx/admin I have tried to perform upgrades from safari on a mac successfully in the past, but following the same procedure when i launch the admin console it hangs or never opens the credentials dialog and had to kill the safari process. only upon a second launch of safari of the admin console does the creds dialog get displayed, but then some of the isy pages are not displayed properly. this seemed to start happening with 2.8.10 betas. thus i have resorted to only performing updates via my W7 64-bit client. I am starting to wonder if there is a compatibility problem with 64-bit OSs running 32-bit java, and the ISY update process. FYI, I bricked two Elk M1 Golds trying to perform firmware updates using the ElkRP application running on my W7 64-bit client. I have received reports from others about other problems using the Elk RP application on W7 64-bit as well. I've given up making Elk firmware updates until i create a windows xp VM for such tasks. -
Release 2.8.11 Is Now Available
elvisimprsntr replied to Michel Kohanim's topic in Previous Releases
i upgrade from 2.8.10rc6 to 2.8.11 and the about screen still says 2.8.10. I upgraded from a W7 64-bit client and cleared java cache after upgrade. UPDATE: I upgraded a second time and now the about screen says 2.8.11. Seems like the same thing happended to me with several betas of 2.8.10 -
Release 2.8.9 (RC5) Is Now Available
elvisimprsntr replied to Michel Kohanim's topic in Previous Releases
my first attempt to update to 2.8.9 appeared to work successfully, then i read the posts concerning the version number. I repeated the upgrade once using the same file, then again after re-downloading the file which seemed to take. I can't recall if I also cleared all browser cache in addition to using the java control panel to clear java cache the second time. config: W7 Ultimate 64-bit, java 6u22 32-bit. -
What's in the next release (2.8.16)

elvisimprsntr replied to Chris Jahn's topic in Previous Releases
Michel explained this a number of posts back: they are there so you can say, for example, IF Thermostat Cooling is On .... I'm not sure why that couldn't be just one of the many tests that you could do on the main thermostat status. Edit: Oh, now I understand, you can have put the device in as a controller for a scene so you could, for example, have a light go on when the Thermostat went to Cool mode. Not sure why you would want to do that but it is a capability of the v2.0 thermostats that UDI made accessible to us. I guess having some KPL buttons show you when heat or AC is running might be nice. Not sure yet why anyone would want to add it so a scene either, unless one needs to open a damper or turn on a secondary HVAC device. I'm considering removing the device and using the manual "add insteon device" method, which I did initially and didn't create 4 entries. I had less issues that way. -

I sent UDI support an updated test results matrix that inlcudes log artifacts in case you need it. In short, FS is incorrect in ALL modes upon power up or manual query. SPs are incorrect in program modes upon power up or manual query. Elvis, -

elvisimprsntr replied to Chris Jahn's topic in Previous Releases
1. Regardless of the fact the tstat is not queried when first added, once power is cycled or the isy is reboot, the ISY does not restore the FS in any mode and SPs in program modes. 2. In program auto mode, when I perform a manual query of the tstat, I only see messages for ST, CLIMD/SP/HUM and do not see CLIFS/SPC/SPH. 3. In auto mode, I see query messages for ST,CLIMD/SP/SPC/SPH/HUM, but not CLIFS 4. I do not see where these states can be queried individually in programs. Only query as a device. It appears to me that not all values are queried in all modes. Elvis -

elvisimprsntr replied to Chris Jahn's topic in Previous Releases
OK, I retested everything after using the start linking method. The significant issues I noticed are: 1. Fan state is now commanded every time a mode change is made. This leads me to believe that CLIFS is not an item that can be queried. Unfortunately, upon power up, fan state is not correctly reported in any modes. 2. Set points will be zero upon power up and even after a query in any of the program modes. Thus this leads to confusing and misleading information in third party apps like eKeypad ISY and iLinc Pro the way it is currently implemented. The question is can the ISY query CLISP,C,H values even in program modes? 3. Wasn't fan mode to be removed? Questions If this is the way it works given some technical limitation, then is the work around to execute a program upon power up to: 1. Command the mode to auto and fan state to auto upon power up at least once, then set the mode and fan to your preferred states to get the ISY and tstat to sync up? 2. Or is there a way to query/report the CLIFS, CLISP, CLISPH, CLIPSC values during a query upon power up and/or when mode changes are mode? Any other ideas? Thanks, Elvis -

D'oh! I added my 2.0 adapter using the new insteon device method and manually entered the particulars. Now that I used the start linking method, I also see the four entries. Ugh! Now I need to retest everything! Elvis -

A significant improvement in the tstat inteface! Just completed an extensive matrix of tstat 2.0 adapter testing with 2.7.8a. I did not create programs that use tstat state values. I will email the complete results/artifacts to UDI support. Summary of significant findings as follows: 1. fan mode not correctly reported and never queried. 2. Setting fan mode removes heat/cool set points from interface. Fan turns on as expected, but changes tstat to auto mode. Manual query of tstat reports heat/cool set points and mode as auto. Humidity is incorrectly reported as cool set point value. Second and subsequent manual query humidity reported as correct value. Manually set mode to off. Subsequent manual query reported mode as fan mode. Confirmed tstat in off mode and fan running. 3. Manually changed mode and fan state, then rebooted ISY after last test. Current temp, humidity, and mode are correctly reported. Fan mode is incorrectly reported as ON. Set points are zero. Switching to auto mode then back to program auto mode, set points are properly reported. Questions/Observations. 1. The failure to report set points affects applications like iLink Pro and eKeypad ISY from properly reporting set points. It seems like there are three different set points CLISP, CLISPH, CLISPC which contain stale values depending on which mode the tstat is in. This results in confusing and misleading information being displayed in iLinc Pro and eKeypad ISY. Perhaps the stale and/or inappropriate information should be cleared based on which mode the tstat is actually in. 2. I did see intermittant incorrectly reported humidity values, but problem does not repeat consistantly only in program auto mode as with 2.7.7a. (Read TStat 2.0 Adapter - Humidity Problem thread.) Not sure if this eliminates the 2.0 adapter as a suspect or not. 3. Can CLIFS be queried? 4. Can the stale CLISP, CLISPH and CLISPC be cleared when not values not appropriate based on mode? 5. I thought I read somewhere the fan mode option was planned to be removed. Elvis. -

You need to send a note to be added to the alpha release notices. Read release notice at top of this thread. I think I read that you need to remove and re-link the tstat adapter. Elvis -

elvisimprsntr replied to Chris Jahn's topic in Previous Releases
OK I stand corrected. I can no longer use the ElkRP applicaiton to log into my ELk M1 Gold. I have had no problems until I upgraded to 2.7.7. The error message i get is "Cound not initialize secure connection." Once this error occurs, the only way i can clear it is to reboot my Elk. I am reverting back to 2.7.6 which I have not have any of these problems before. UPDATE: Well it appears to be a conflict between Windows MCE (and no I don't have the MCE plug in installed) and the ElkRP application. When I an watching TV via MCE and trying to run the ElkRP applicaiton, I get the error message mentioned above. I'm going back to 2.7.7 to re-produce the problem. UPDATE2: Problem duplicated with 2.7.7 and conflict with MCE running. Don't run MCE when trying to run ElkRP application. -
I'm trying to download the weather module and keep getting kicked out of the checkout process. It's not a problem with my account. I have had no problems using google checkout before. I give up!

Been running 2.7.7 alpha for a couple of days, interfacing using iLinc Pro and eKeypad ISY. Also acceing via the admin console. Once significant change I have noticed is the Controller/Responder and Manages/ManagedBy associations tree make a lot more logical sense now. Keep up the good work! Elvis
