The program is intended to alert me when any of the device in the list with "thermo" in name deviate outside high or low temperature. Most are Zwavew with 1 Insteon Thermostat left. I am working through the wiki to see if I can get the email variables to report the current temperature of each device so I can tell which device is triggering.

@dbussI have read it and tried using the addresses in notifications but maybe it's time for a 2nd read. Thank you.
-
Thanks @dbuss I have not figured out how to do that 🤦♂️ after lots of reading.

Is there a simple way to determine which device in this list is triggering Then action besides looking though the log or inspecting status of each device individually? I cannot seem to find the offender. Or could a comms issue with a device cause Then action? Also an odd anomaly at the end of the program "Main Thermo 60" I am not sure what that is from other than an old program possibly that was deleted? WS and Fridge and house Temp Alert - [ID 0003][Parent 0001] If ( 'Thermo Workshop' Temperature <= 49.0° Or 'Thermo Workshop' Temperature >= 80.0° Or 'Thermo Main Fridge / Thermo Main Fridge' Temperature >= 46.0°F Or 'Thermo Humidor / Thermo Humidor' Humidity <= 67% Or 'Thermo Humidor / Thermo Humidor' Temperature >= 72.0°F Or 'Thermo Utility / Thermo Utility Temp' Temperature >= 76.0°F Or 'Thermo Utility / Thermo Utility Temp' Temperature <= 59.0°F Or 'ZW / Bonus Multilevel Sensor' Temperature >= 82.0°F Or 'ZW / Bonus Multilevel Sensor' Temperature <= 55.0°F ) Then Repeat Every 30 minutes Send Notification to 'live' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Main Thermo 60

Thanks all for the replies Interpreting what I've read in this thread and others, purchasing the Polisy Pro soon to spend cold months doing some dabbling and learning, but keeping the ISY in place for a bit of time until it can be smoothly consolidated.
-
Some questions / statements I am looking to get clarified if anyone can dumb this down for some of us. There' way too many comments in this forum to read to keep this clear for me . I have many Insteon and Z-wave devices in place and do not wish to start over with device purchases. Polisy HW is the current / future replacement for ISY994i? ISY programs and devices can be imported to Polisy, and ISY can be unplugged? Polyglot on board or Polyglot cloud or both is the future software repository? Is Z-wave native on Polisy or does it require a USB adaptor? Does Serial PLM plug in directly? Is there anything the Polisy Pro offers besides Wi-Fi & Bluetooth? If I have a healthy Ethernet network what would Wi-Fi & BT benefit other than laternate network paths?

well trying the simple approach of 2 programs, program 1 observes the humididty level <40% humidity works, and program 2 notofies me, but instead of every 3 hours which is what my repeat command is, it alerts every 5 minutes, which is the original behavior or my initial single program ?
-
Thanks @apostolakisl for the simplicity, that's all I was after was to notify me once the humidity drops below 40% and continue to notify until it's not true. And thanks for all the other comments and tips from others. I appreciate a community willing to help out. I have always tried to keep things as simple as possible / not over complicate unless the task calls for it. If I ever go missing, whomever takes over my chaos may the have an easy road ?
-
@MrBill thanks again and thanks all for the clarification to my offensive question for simplification ?
-
I may be a bit simple minded in my thinking but isn't this a complex set of programs to accomplish something I perceive as simple? Is there an easier way to make this platform more adoptable for the every day home automation newbie? For instance If less than 40% do this, if more that 40% do nothing

Does anyone know how to get the UD Mobile Favorites as a List vs. Tiles? On Android app, when I originally built the Favorites as a list (like the programs photo) but they reverted to tiles at some point and I cannot find any setting to revert?
-
Thank You @MrBill I will try these programs out.
-
Wait 6 hours? I'd like the notification to repeat every 6 hours until the condition no longer exists
-
I have edited, re-edited, deleted and re-added this program below and I cannot figure out why it runs / send Notification every 5 minutes instead of every 6 hours. I have moved the repeat line after Send Notification and still same results. The original program was every 5 minutes but has been deleted. Any ideas? Bonus Humidity -40 - [ID 001E][Parent 0023] If 'ZW / Bonus Multilevel Sensor' Humidity < 40% Then Repeat Every 6 hours Send Notification to 'live' Repeat 1 times Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

Thank You @Javi Defining the local network works and I am able to reboot.
-
Thanks @Brian H indeed the function exists when sirens are in a scene. Theoretically I can have 2 scenes, 1 where they all siren, and 1 where they all chime! Perfecto! who knew
-
Thank You @Javi. I did not click far enough in. I receive an http 50 error with URL so I'll start troubleshooting that next.
-
Restart of isy via UD mobile would be nice feature. When communications seem out of sync, restart seems to mend.
-
In the ISY console the siren shows up with arm & trigger elements but I do not see a way to send "chime" vs. "siren" command from ISY program. Is this possible?

@TomL what does your program that query's temp do with the data? I am attempting to monitor the 2 thermostats in the discussion and report to me every hour so I can monitor. I'd like to get the current temp and email that. Check Thermo - [ID 0039][Parent 0001] If 'WS Thermo - Main' Mode is Heat And From 8:35:00AM To 8:05:00AM (next day) Then Set 'WS Thermo - Main' Query Set 'Bonus Thermo - Main' Query Send Notification to 'Gmail' Repeat Every 1 hour Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') My new programs based on your guidance.... Bonus Heat On - [ID 0037][Parent 0001] If From 6:00:00PM To 8:00:00AM (next day) And 'Bonus Thermo - Main' Temperature < 66.0° And 'WS Thermo - Main' Mode is Heat Then Wait 8 minutes Set 'WS Thermo - Main' Heat Setpoint 65° Else Set 'WS Thermo - Main' Heat Setpoint 58° Bonus Heat Off - [ID 0038][Parent 0001] If From 6:05:00PM To 8:05:00AM (next day) And 'Bonus Thermo - Main' Temperature > 70.0° And 'WS Thermo - Main' Mode is Heat Then Set 'WS Thermo - Main' Heat Setpoint 58° Else Set 'WS Thermo - Main' Heat Setpoint 58°

Thank You @TomL the programs make sense and I'll give this a try and see if i can find a range that works. Thanks again
-
thanks for that @TomL Please ignore this message if you're celebrating Thanksgiving and enjoy your day Happy Thanksgiving. I did not realize but I do get current temp from ZTH using a program, it just never reports in console or log. But if I get current temp from ZTH and it is NOT master I'm not clear how to determine the correct setpoint on the TH to maintain a temperature in ZTH room around 68 degrees since the temperature in the TH room fluctuates based on outdoor temp and also the changing temp from the furnace fan moving air to heat both rooms connected to same furnace. I interpret your question marks as the setpoint. If there was a way just to send heat until temp at ZTH is at 70 then stop heat, then start heat if ZTH temp is below 68. I do not think that's possible with the TH. My only options are setpoint or increase or decrease setpoint. I probably am not understanding how to query the correct variables and the 2nd program.
-
Yes the ZTH is running on 5V power supply but I have never been able to successfully query temp. It does report accurate set points and humidity in log. My challenge is, if the zth loses master, then the other thermostat and other room's temperature becomes in control. So monitoring the zw100 for temp then increasing the zth setpoint will not make a difference because it is not master. The TH thermostat and room could be 58 degrees, and the zw100 room could be at 68 degrees. So shoul i ignore the zth and only query the zw100 "if less than 68 degrees, query TH thermostat for ? then increase TH thermo 1 degree?? Im not sure I understand how the program should be written to be reliable to keep zw100 room at or above 68?? From log for ZTH: Bonus Thermo - Main Cool Setpoint 76.0░ Bonus Thermo - Main Heat Setpoint 68.0░ Bonus Thermo - Main Humidity 42% Bonus Thermo - Main Thermostat Mode Heat Bonus Thermo - Main Fan Setting Auto Bonus Thermo - Main Unit 0

I'm in need of a bit of what I consider "advanced" program help I have 2441zth and 2441TH and Aeotec ZW100 running 5.0.16 firmware. I have read numerous articles and do not believe there is a fix for the ZTH losing Master. The ZTH is in the room I want to control temp. The ZW100 is in that same room. the 2441TH is hardwired to furnace in a separate room. When the zth loses master the TH becomes master. The temp in the room the TH is in can vary greatly (~10 degree difference) from the ZTH depending on time of day / year How do I programatically check the ZW100 which has an accurate temp for the space and manipulate the TH temp to adjust the temp in the room its not in? This would be in a situation where the ZTH has lost Master. When ZTH is Master the temp in the room stays consistent. I have NOT been successful with a program to query the current temp of the ZTH.

But even though the smokebridge did not respond to linking the way I read it was supposed to, the test worked and my control program alerted me, so now I own 2 SA520's and you can all ignore me Thanks for the help
