Thanks - I'll update here if the situation changes.

Hmmm. Just realized the PG2 Node server Store is empty as well. (I no longer have any PG2 Node Servers.)
-
All of my Node Servers are listed as disconnected. Also - the Node server Store is empty. (It was before I did the update and was the reason I did the update.) What do I do?

Just installed one of these: https://www.kasasmart.com/us/products/smart-lighting/kasa-smart-light-strip-multicolor-kl420l5 Very cool, by the way. It works perfectly fine from the Kasa app. It shows up in the AC's Main Tab. It does not, however, show up in the list of 'Your Devices' when I try to add it to a program. I can turn it on and off from the AC's Main Tab, so it is connected to the ISY. I can also see it in PG3. And - it's the only node with more than one driver(9) in PG3. I know it's a new item - if you need assistance with testing this, just let me know. My AC is running 5.4.3 - My Kasa Node is running 3.0.9 - My PG3 is 3.0.40 I am noticing, however, that PG3 is reporting I'm running ISY version 5.3.0. (I've restarted everything this morning a few times.)

Ahhh- Thanks again. Because I have 4 mini-splits I'll need 8 applets then.
-
Is it possible to trigger both an on event and an off event from one node (Applet)? The Applet I created only turns the unit on. I've searched their docs and cannot find a way to use one Applet for both states.
-
Thank you for your quick reply! I just turned the unit on from my AC after restarting the AC - I had not restarted it (always the simple stuff that stymies me). And yes, because I have 4 units I will create 4 On and 4 Off events. I'll attempt that now. Thank you very much!

I fear I'm going to need a little hand holding to get this to work. Goal: Turn a Sensibo connected mini-split on when an Ecobee sensor shows less than desired temperature. I've added the IFTTT PG3 Node server (today). I'm running it on a Policy. I added my API Key to the Configuration page. I created an Applet naming it BRSenOn. Then I chose 'Receive a web request'. Then I chose Sensibo, registered Sensibo with IFTTT and filled in the form to indicate On, Heat Mode, Fan Auto. Then I did this: What do I do next? It shows in my admin panel, however I do not see how I can make it work in a program.

When I used X10 devices I learned they could pick up 'stray' signals from devices so long as those devices were on the same electrical transformer feeding my home. Because the OP's 'sees' stray signals at nearly the same time each day - clearly something is running at that time - and it could very well be at a neighbor's home. Look for something you can see - is there a new light on all night that wasn't on before this started happening? Can you ask your closest neighbor's if they have something new they are running with an electric motor in it?

Support thread for: ISY on Polisy (IoP) v5.4.2 (March 29, 2022)

Yes - you nailed it!

As a follow-up - Alexa is able to turn off all of my HT equipment directly because of HDMI-CEC. (When my TV turns off, it automatically turns off everything connected to it.) There is an Alexa skill for the brand of TV I have.
-
The NS has all of the buttons from all of the remotes associated with each of the devices I have registered to my Harmony. (TV, Blue-Ray Player, Chromecast w/Google TV etc.) It does not have the buttons from my Harmony remote, however there may be a way to make that happen - I just don't need it. As for listing the NS as a device - no - I do not. I used to list my ISY, however I no longer need to do that, as I'm now using Alexa Routines to turn my Home Theater (lights and all) on and off. ISY is a skill available with Alexa. (Also - I have a Policy now which does not have IR like my ISY did.) When we ask Alex to turn off the TV, the Alexa Routine runs my Home Theater Trigger Program on my ISY which does the following: HT Trigger - [ID 0003][Parent 0001][Not Enabled] If From Sunset To Sunrise (next day) Then Set 'Fireplace Lights' On Set 'Kasa Controller / Blinds' On Set 'Speaker Lights' Off Set 'Fan' Off Set 'Fan Light' Off Set 'Kasa Controller / Mantle' Off Set 'Counter Lights Sink' On Set 'Ecobee - Family Room' to Sleep, Hold Type Hold Next Wait 10 seconds Set 'Ecobee - Living Room' to Sleep, Hold Type Hold Next Wait 10 seconds Set 'Ecobee - Bedroom' to Sleep, Hold Type Hold Next Wait 10 minutes Set 'Fireplace Lights' Off Set 'Counter Lights Sink' Off Else Set 'Kasa Controller / Blinds' On Set 'Fan' Off Set 'Speaker Lights' Off Set 'Fireplace Lights' Off Set 'Fan Light' Off Set 'Kasa Controller / Mantle' Off The fireplace lights come on so we can see our path out of the room, and the counter lights are in the next room (kitchen). The thermostats lower the temp earlier than their usual schedule for bedtime. We have a similar program that executes when we turn the TV on. Clearly, I have the Kasa and Ecobee node servers as well.

By the way - there's a thread here that may give you some ideas:
-
I used to use my Harmony Elite to control the lights in my HT room by issuing commands with the remote to my ISY (it had the IR function). Here is how I made that happen. I added the ISY as a device to my Harmony Hub. Then, I added it to all of my activities. I told Harmony to leave it powered on when changing activities, and power it off when I use the off button on my Harmony remote. (Of course, the ISY doesn't actually power off, but the Harmony thinks it did.) Then, I added a different IR code to the power on and power off routine of the ISY in my Harmony software. Now, when I turn anything on in my HT room with my Elite (or from anywhere in my house using my Echo), my ISY knows I've turned on an activity and executes a program based on time of day to set up the lights in the room. I've also added additional IR codes from the ISY and added them to the Home Control buttons on the Elite so that I can further control my lights and fan while watching TV or listening to music. The 'off' IR command used when I turn everything off with my Elite when I leave the room (in addition to turning off all of my HT equipment) turns everything off in the room and turns a light on in the next room (if after sunset) so we can see our way out. On one of my Home Control buttons on the Elite I can even send an IR command to my ISY activating a program to control a lamp plugged into a TP-Link Smartplug. On those Home Control buttons you can use both short and long presses. The Hub will then send the correct IR code to the ISY. There was very little delay (if any), by the way. Now that I have a Policy, I've done something very similar, although much easier to program, by using the Harmony Node Server with PG3.
-
All I had to do was this (and use the same login I do for my CP). Thank you!!!
-
I just installed PG3 on my Policy, however it did not find my ISY automatically. Here is a pic of how I filled out the panel to find it. What am I doing wrong? I've tried both admin/admin as well as the user name and password I use to log into the ISY control panel. Also - I've tried checking both http and https.
-
As someone with more Kasa devices than Insteon now (many hidden plugs, 2 switches and two 2 outlet devices) I'm ok for now using the network resource work-a-round. I say write the Node Server in PG3 - especially if it's within a few months of beta. (My Insteon devices are mostly dimmers and bulbs.)
-
Are there any PG3 Nodeservers that are not available in PG2?
-
You Da Man!! That did it!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Thank for getting back to me. Using my browser, I went to Settings/Polyglot Settings and made my username and password the same as I use to log into my admin console using the ISY Finder. The message is still there, and I cannot add any NodeServers. Using my browser, I also changed my username and password in the Profile section to the same to see if that would help - it did not.
-
I have ISY running on my new Polisy, and I've added a few Insteon devices. They are working great. I've also linked some of those switches to Alexa - she's controlling them perfectly (even the dimming commands), so my Portal is all good as well. Next, I'm trying to add some NodeServers, however I cannot get past this message in red on my Dashboard: ISY automatically discovered at http://192.168.50.29:80 however the username and password need to be set in the settings menu. I've changed my password in a few different places in the settings menu: Settings/Polyglot Settings and Settings/Profile. Originally that red message had a different IP - something like 192.168.1.10 - however my new router's addresses all have 192.168.50.x. Although I removed Polyglot from my Raspberry Pi (192.168.50.115), I have that turned off for now just in case. I changed the IP to 192.168.50.29 (address of the Polisy) in: Settings/Polyglot Settings and in Settings/Policy Configuration. I'm stumped - I can see the Store and request a NodeServer, but I cannot add it.
