  1. @DennisC No update available on the Play Store. Again, it was recently updated maybe a week ago or less. About 21 apps back and I had 9 today.
  2. @DennisC @Javi OH ME!! This is interesting. Each reboot caused three notifications for each eisy. And I received all 3. First is the going off line/reboot, then two for startup, PG3 etc. SO I went from on my tablet 1 notification always flagged to 4 (3+1), with 3 in the notification area. I deleted all notifications. On my phone I had 4 or vice versa... not sure it maters which android, I delted the three and ow I have 6 notifications in the folder with a red 6!!! So, it seems the app is not subtracting the deleted notifications. Surely someone else should be experiencing this if it is a bug. It's the latest version of UDM but just a week ago or so, maybe less. Not sure exactly when it started and not a big deal as things still work but annoying to have it tell you you have notifications when none are shown. Thanks. I'll Do a support ticket.
  3. Seems as tho sometimes a reboot clears all things. Just don't know which device or where, is the fault if that can casue the issue. SO here we go. One at a time. I'll report back.
  4. I've done that a lot of times and just a while ago a couple times after resyncing. No change.
  5. Thanks @DennisC I have two devices in different parts of the state so I will reboot and see what happens.... Thanks!
  6. Thanks for the reply @DennisC What happens if you select the 3 notifications on your tablet? Nothing.... you see what the image shows that I posted which is nothing, actually "no new notifications". Have you synchronized both devices recently? (Didn't even cross my mind), but tried and again, no change. Still no notifications but shows at the bottom I have them. I've tried deleting notifications, but that changes nothing. Nothing to delete but tried it. John
  7. Before I enter a ticket, there might be something I am missing in clearing notifications. I have UDM installed on my Android Tablet and My Samsung Android phone. My phone shows one notification in the bottom center, (screenshot attached), and my tablet shows three notifications in the bottom center but none are evident or showing. How do I clear these ghost notifications or are there notifications for something else, somewhere else? Thanks! John
  8. Thank you so much!
  9. Quick question... When one updates PG3, will this also bring us up to the latest python interface? Or must this reinstall all be performed before we realize the new interface? Thx! John
  10. Okey dokey on that! That is truly above my pay grade at this point in time!! Still cannot find settings for the plugin
  11. I must be losing it! I cannot find this in IoX, or when I click Plugin > Notifications I get Add Node and Add all Nodes or when I go to Launch Polyglot v3. In that web UI I see no Settings or gear icon. Where is this notifications Tab? My apologies if I need some hand holding here.
  12. @ Javi, What about showing all my variables in the other selections? That should not be happening. Thanks! I will do what you suggest! That one default group does work BTW.
  13. Today I was adding a notification using the paid for polyglot plugin. I am running two eISY's in two different locations of the state. Both are running IoX 5.8.0 and one has Polyglot 3.2.17 and the other has 3..2.18. I have two notification groups. Default and Everyone. When I go to add my notification in my program, I can only select REMOVED-default. My everyone group does not show up. When I click the arrow icon it toggles between all my variables and the group, (of which only removed-default one shows up). Click the sound arrow icon and I get sounds, another click on the arrow and my variables show. Go down to Content and and opens a drop down with my content and another click opf the right pointing arrow shows all of my variables. This is really off behavior! It's been a while since I have changed/added anything. How can I fix this or at least get my second group, everyone. Thanks for any help! John
  14. Thanks Geddy. I assumed as much... but it's the activate, install, buttons had me pretty confused. Wish things could be a tad more clear at times. Kinda scare me! John
  15. After updating polyglot to 3.2.13 today I was poking around and reminded myself again that the polyglot store and purchased node servers is confusing. I purchased the notifications module and thought I installed it correctly after UD Mobile installed the free version. Notifications works very well via UD Mobile. When I view Plugin Purchases, it shows four Notification plugins. Two (2) are beta versions which I am not that bleeding edge to play with and two (2) are production. The two production versions I can re-install. Why... should it not state which one is in fact installed with a second button to reinstall if necesary? Next, when I go to the store and click on Notifiction I get install options. It tells me to Activate the free for one month version or Install the $15 version, (which I thought I had done after I purchased it, and then I can Install the Free version. On this screen shouldn't it state that the $15 version is installed? One thing it does show Installed Slot 1, but should I Click Install again? SO my question is, how do I know what version I have installed on my eISY? It works with UD Mobile great and the only option I have in eISY is UD Mobile. Do I need to install it again? reinstall one of the other versions I purchased? Argh... just confusing and shold be to even the experiences ones of us. Thanks for your help! John
  16. Oh my!! I am always feeling like a total idiot! I swear I went to my portal, did the web thing... Never saw Logs, there as big as life. Sorry and thanks! John
  17. For some reason I thought I could view my eISY Log files from UD Mobile. I could not find where such would be located and obviously this is not an option... or is it? Can the log files be viewed via UD Mobile? It would have been very helpful being out of town to not have to log in to the iOX Finder since my laptop wasn't with me. Would be a great option. John
  18. I am using an Insteon 2342-2 eight button keypad in our kitchen as my wife loves being able to turn on lights over the sink, under the counters and etc. One thing that bugs her is, when she turns a light on with the wireless keypad and then someone turns it off via the Insteon wall switch (keypad), the status of that button is always ON. This means that she has to push the uotton twice to turn the light back on. SInce the status of the remote button is on, even though the light is off via the other controller, the first button press sets the status as OFF then the 2nd button press sets the button ON and the light turns on as it should. There is nothing in the details of the device that states that anything can be done other than "write changes". Even in a program. It's no big deal to push twice, it would be nice if it would work in this manner. I understand how and why its set this way, but it would be GREAT if we could just set status in the eISY/ISY programs. Thanks John
  19. One more stupid question.... How does one know whether or not the OS upgrade took place? Where can you see the actual Linux OS version? Help > About only shows the firmware and UI. Thanks John
  20. Replying to my own post above, I clicked on Upgrade Packages again out of not knowing what else to do. After it said all packages were updated I hit the reboot iOX. I now have the polyglot login and can login. SO... what was upgraded? why con't there be a "one and done" scenario for this amazing device. It just seems... complex for lack of a better word when it shouldn't be. I read above that someone had to reboot their device upwards of 5 times as I recall but that might have been a Polisy. In any event, all seems fine but why does it take multiple reboots? Why can't the eISY when we log in advise us upgrades pending and click that update button? Or does it and I haven't found it yet? Thanks! John
  21. I just updated my eISY from 5.6.4 to 5.7.0. Rebooted one time when it told me to do so. Cleared Java Cache and downloaded/ran the new start.jnlp. No issues as described within this thread EXCEPT: I do not have any polyglot servers/services as of yet and I used to be able to get into the polyglot v3 logon from wither the main ISY Finder or from the apps menu. (Launch Polyglot V3). I get an err_connection_refused. eisy.local refused to connect. I have two eISYs in use and the second one I have yet to upgrade and won't until I get onsite. It is on 5.6.4 and I can get into the polyglot login and see what servers are available to install and all that stuff. How do I get into my polyglot stuff and UDI store when I am ready to purchase/try polyglot stuff under 5.7.0? And my apologies if this was mentioned somewhere within this thread and I missed it. I did read all of them before I did the upgrade. Thanks! John
  22. Just trying to fully understand things on this new update. So far from what I have been reading; Polisy has had the most problems with this upgrade/update. eISY has had few issues with this upgrade/update. Am I correct in assuming that this upgrade will now be problem free with the eISY moving from 5.6.4 to this 5.7.0? (With me it has always been something it seems). John
  23. Well, normally maybe a few times a week. Somedays it could be a few times a day. I've been testing vtext.com all day from my comcast account and my old business email with maybe a dozen tests from each domain in short succession and in less than a minute it's there in my android messaging app. I suppose that with the 100's+ that UDI relays, that it could be in issue. I still feel that it is very suspect to have this extremely lengthy delay happen all at once after months of very acceptable service and corresponding to my migration from ISY to eISY. We can close this forum post as I set it up to go through my old work mail server and so far so good. Not sure why I didn't do that years ago other than it was easier to check [ ] Default! Now I will endeavor to learn more about the pg3 nodes available on the store and move even more forward! Thank-you all. I did in fact learn a lot. Hopefully you all can appreciate where I am/was coming from. John
