8 Button useage

[aLf]

Can the 8 Button KPL from Smarthome be set the have a pseudo or stealth on or off set to have ISY recognize the state of that particular button? I.e., I'd like to program, say button "H" to show the state of my being home. When I'm home I'd push "H" on and ISY could run commands predicated on that "on" call. If ISY saw it "OFF" or away from home a different set of caommands would run.

 

In the old SH managaer there was an "IF" criteria that said "IF" a certain switch was off, and the time was 12:00 and the day was Saturday..., then turn "certain switch" OFF. I'd substitute certain switch with KPL H, etc.

 

Thanks ahead of time.

alf,

 

Hello and apologies for a tardy reply.

 

With respect to your question, we do have pre-2.5 (beta) release coming out shortly (early next week) which allows you to do as you described below + a lot more.

 

With kind regards,

Michel
