Michel Absolutely! I would be honored. I am happy to contribute it to "the cause" especially after all the times you helped me thru things! Rich

I wish to share the following on how to link your ISY using ISY PORTAL (like using ECHO) Now as a added backup my lights in the family room flash when the doorbell rings! If you have the ISY portal and a Ring doorbell you can have the ISY do any function for example, flask the lights in the house. Create a variable for use in the ISY for use and it will show up in ISYPORTAL in the dropdown (mine is RingDoor for example) Set up ISY portal for IFTTT use and create a ISY key for use. You will then have a link to use on IFTTT for example: https://my.isy.io/api/ifttt/RingDoor/key/<YourKEYFROMisyPORTAL> You will need to copy this key for later use) Use the variable you created in your isy and create a action to run it in ISYPORTAL. For example in my ISYPORTAL: Event name Category Resource Address Action RingDoor Variable RingDoorbellActive 8 Set value to 1 Showing 1 to 1 of 1 entries Now Log on to IFTTT and create a recipe using Ring Doorbell and Maker Create a Recipe If this then that and pick THIS Choose trigger channel and search for Ring doorbell When picked you have to log into Ring and follow the prompts. When done.... Choose a Trigger New Ding Detected This Trigger fires every time somebody rings your Ring Doorbell. OR New Motion Detected Set up a trigger for what you want (ie New Ring detected) Complete Trigger Fields New Ding Detected Which doorbell? Please select Front Door Now pick THAT Choose Action Channel and Search/pick MAKER MAKER IN MAKER, Choose an Action Make a web request Pick the web request Make a web request URL https://my.isy.io/api/ifttt/RingDoor/key/<YourKEYFROMisyPORTAL> Use the KEY from the ISY portal, plug in in the URL field. PS I found using the copy feature from ISY PORTAL works best! Choose the following in IFTTT Method Please select POST Content Type Please select application /jsonapplication Optional Body (Leave blank) now select action. Now you can write any program you wish that will do a action and then reset the variable to 0 again. I am willing to bet that if you use their new motion cameras you can also use them for events and motion around the house! Enjoy! Rich

Thanks I'll try that and get back to you.

I am using a Keypadlinc to control all lights off at bedtime. When we go to bed you hit the off button and then it shuts down all the units on. The problem if you go outside the bedroom and turn on a few lights and the go back, if you hit "OFF" again nothng happens becuase the ISY already shows the device in the off postion so it does nothing about running the command again. (Yes the On and off buttons are in non toggle mode) I'm stumped. How do I get ths to happen WHEN te Keypadlinc is already off. If From 10:00:00PM To 5:00:00AM (next day) And Status 'Master BDRM Keypad On' is Off Then Set Scene 'My Lighting' Off Wait 2 seconds Run Program 'all x10 off' (Then Path) $Night_light = 0 Set 'Master BDRM Keypad On' On 6 / Off 0 (Backlight Level) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

Hi Michel Ok Sounds like you are in the same spot. Hopefully you will get an answer with a new URL. Hope all is well with you and the team. PS George is coming along well now and with his new ISY and hopefully will be tieing in his hamstack in the near future. He is very impressed!

WHen I check the flex alert tab on the electricity / modules page and bring up the url posted in it http://flexyourpower.s3.amazonaws.com/b ... status.xml I get the following: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> -true It always shows that Flex alerts are active when I know that they are not. Did the url change? How do we find te right URL to track this? Thanks for any insight on this Rich
