I suppose I can play with the frequency of the restarts - maybe once a week or so.

Yes (said so in my first post here). 😀

Just some background info on my router: It's an Asus ZenWiFi AX mesh system with 2 units. They cover my 2 story home and backyard (1 acre property) with ease. IMHO it's a great router. I don't know why I need to reboot it once in a while, but everything I read says it's not a bad idea to do so occasionally anyway. I don't think I need to do it 4 times a week, but that works for me and it happens when we are sleeping. The node server stops working regardless of the interval between router reboots.

Ha! Today is one of the days, so about to PM you.

I have my router programmed to restart 4 days a week. If I don't, about once a week we begin to lose wireless connections around the house and yard. Everything on my network is working flawlessly since I programmed my router to do this about 5 months ago. My router restarts at 4am 4 days a week. On those days, my programs with Kasa devices in them do not work until I go into PG3 and restart the node server. All of those devices work as they should, however, with the Kasa app as well as with Alexa - so they are connected to my network just fine. When this occurs, I go log into PG3 and restart the Kasa nose server and suddenly all is well. My Polisy and any Kasa devices I have in ISY programs are all set up in my router's manually assigned IP table (always have been). Here is an example of one of the programs that stops working: Office Heater On - [ID 001B][Parent 0001] If 'Office Remote - C' is switched On Then Set 'Kasa Controller / Heater' On Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Is there anything I can do to keep this from happening?

The Sensibos control my Mitsubishi Mini Splits. They are heat pumps, so I have the programs set to turn them off if the outside temp falls below 20F. I have 4 indoor units coupled to 2 outdoor compressors. They are reducing my oil consumption considerably.

The other one for Outside: Temperature - Outside Less than 20 - [ID 001A][Parent 0001] If 'WeatherBit Weather' Temperature < 20.0°F Then $Outside_Temp = 0 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

The 0's and 1's are just to trigger On or Off. I don't have the house temp at 0 - 🤣 Here's an example of how I'm changing a 'State Variable' (instead of an Integer Variable thanks to @larryllix): Temperature - Outside Greater than 20 - [ID 000F][Parent 0001] If 'WeatherBit Weather' Temperature >= 20.0°F Then $Outside_Temp = 1 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') I have six of these, two for upstairs using a sensor in the master bedroom, two for outside using Weatherbit and two for the family room downstairs. The inside sensors are Ecobees.

Thank you for your quick response! Gonna make that change right now 😀.

The reason I don't have the program check the temperatures directly is because the Sensibo controllers beep with every 'on' and 'off' command. The program worked flawlessly when I used temperature from sensors directly, but the beeping every time a temperature inside or outside changed was driving us nuts 🤬. I have a similar program to turn them On, by the way (also not working). Each time a temperature changed, an 'on' or 'off' command was sent to them causing a beep. I even tried to have the program check the state of each Sensibo before sending the command, but it wasn't reliable. The variables are working perfectly, and the program I listed above does as well if I run it manually.

Here's my program: AC Upstairs Off - [ID 001E][Parent 0001] If $Bedroom_Temperature is 0 Or $Outside_Temperature is 0 Then Set 'Jen's Room Sensibo' Off Wait 10 seconds Set 'Guest Room Sensibo' Off Wait 10 seconds Set 'Bedroom Sensibo' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') My issue: When either variable changes to '0', the Sensibos do not turn off. If I right click on the program and chose 'Run (If)' the Sensibos do turn off (if either one is '0'}. My question - why is my Policy not checking to see if those variables are changing?

Very reliable.

I use Alexa for my Geofencing needs - works great. (The Alexa app on my Pixel.) Among other things, my outside lights turn on if after sunset when either of us arrive home. I have the lights I want to come on in a scene. Alexa triggers the program in my IoP.

Full on (100%) it shows 1.503w. I have a second string (Kitchen Counter Lights 2) that is about 1/2 the length of the one in the pic. It shows exactly the same wattages in ISY (on and off).

Sorry - no idea.

Hmm - I'm viewing on a desktop and can read it perfectly. I'll see if I can dm you the pic. DM sent, but may be the same as here. I do not know how to get the original to you. EDIT: See 2cond dm...

Here's a screenshot of my ISY - this may give you an idea of what you can do with the node server and my version of the LED strips.

Haven't played with that too much - I use my ISY to turn them on and off and set brightness in a scene only. What comes on in terms of a light show is what I've set with the Kasa app. ISY might be able to do more, just not sure. I'll check that when I'm able to.

You can program any pattern you like. There are some pre-programmed ones in the Kasa App including a number of solid colors, aurora borealis, bubbling cauldron, candy cane, Christmas, candle flicker, grandma's christmas lights, Hanukkah, haunted mansion, icicle, lightening, ocean, rainbow, raindrop, spring and Valentines.

Not the model I reference here - they may have other models - don't know.

Yes, of course. See their website for what you are able to do.

The ISY has the same controls as the Kasa app.

I have a long one on one side of the kitchen, and a short one on the other side (they can be trimmed.) I have outlets in my cabinets, so all I had to do was run the supplied wire from the wall wart to the start of the strips (drilled a hole for that). Here's a photo of the wall wart and manual switch (which we never use).

I cut mine - as for wifi they work like all other Kasa (TP-Link) stuff.

Crazy busy day for me - will post pics sometime today for you (small wall wort and push button switch - we leave the switch on 24/7 obviously).
