jim_ Posted December 7, 2014 Posted December 7, 2014 Hi, just purchased an ISY-994i to replace an X10 system from the 90’s running on a DOS controller This type of programming is completely new to me, so what may be obvious to others is something I am struggling to understand. I am using 2 lamp modules to test with and mixing in some existing Leviton control switches … this is my test program which does not trigger at DUSK. IF – Program ‘Dusk’ is True Then – Set Module_1 On Wait 10 seconds Set Module_2 On Send X10 ‘C1/On (3)’ <<< Leviton control switch Else - Set Module_1 Off Set Module_2 Off Nothing happens when the Sunrise/Sunset time surpasses the Sunset time ? Next, there are no Diagnostic / Event Logs being generated … how do you enable them ?
LeeG Posted December 7, 2014 Posted December 7, 2014 (edited) Check that the Sunrise does not say (same day). It should be set to (next day). Post the actual Program (right click on Program name and select last option Copy to Clipboard). Paste into forum post. Wrong If From Sunset To Sunrise (same day) Right If From Sunset To Sunrise (next day) Then Edited December 7, 2014 by LeeG
stusviews Posted December 7, 2014 Posted December 7, 2014 If From Sunset To Sunrise (next day) won't do anything unless there is another trigger condition. If Time is Sunset (or Sunrise) will be true at that particular time. No other conditions are needed.
LeeG Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) Does the Then not trigger at Sunset and Else trigger at Sunrise? If From Sunset To Sunrise (next day) Then Edited December 8, 2014 by LeeG
jim_ Posted December 8, 2014 Author Posted December 8, 2014 Thanks for the info, but here comes the questions on editing Editing the program, the first pull down in the If condition window only has "And" & "Or" to select How do I get a pull down to select "From" & "To" ? Cheers
oberkc Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 ADd To Program: Schedule Schedule: choose "from" in the window which shows "time"
jim_ Posted December 8, 2014 Author Posted December 8, 2014 Thanks for the help, got it working What is the DUSK program for / do ? If Program 'Dusk' is True

jim_ Posted December 12, 2014 Author Posted December 12, 2014 I created a program named DUSK ... I was not expecting it to be a select-able item when adding new programs
Xathros Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 (edited) If From Sunset To Sunrise (next day) won't do anything unless there is another trigger condition. What? I have to disagree. I believe this will trigger and run then at sunset and trigger and run else at sunrise. -Xathros Edited December 12, 2014 by Xathros
kstock Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 It absolutely will. I have several programs with this exact syntax that trigger appropriately.
stusviews Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 That's good to know. One program for both dusk and dawn. Thanks.
