Xathros Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 (edited) @Xathros, Have you been able to configure Mobilinc to connect to ISYPortal? I've tried the 'Admin Console URL' (with and without the /desc) as well as the 'URL to ISY' (which I realize is the same as the admin console URL but without the /desc and also not encoded). None have worked so far. PErhaps I'm missing something - or perhaps I'm trying something that wasn't intended. Due to SSL on the portal being *much* faster than directly to ISY - I'm wanting to try using this against Mobilinc (which has fallen into disuse for me due mainly to the SSL performance issue). Thanks! Michael. I haven't tested but assumed it would work. I will give it a try and see what I get. -Xathros EDIT: It seems to connect ok but then crashes Mobilinc on the iPhone when "Parsing Devices and Scenes". Also, you need to use the portal credentials rather than the ISY's credentials in the ML settings. Edited October 28, 2015 by Xathros Quote

If you can provide a date and time, I can investigate the portal logs. Thanks, Benoit. Quote

Xathros Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Which URL did you use in Mobilinc? I used the unencoded url. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

Thanks, Benoit. Roughly 11:20 EST today. Should see several attempts. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
MWareman Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 I used the unencoded url. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Awesome - thanks! I had an extra HTTPS:// in there. Thanks for confirming which one was correct. Got it to sync successfully, and I'm able to control everything. I'm an Android (6.0). Confirmed my suspicion that though - Mobilinc is still taking an age to sync on startup. Given it takes a long time locally over http it really does point to an application issue rather than a crypto delay caused by the low powered ISY as generally identified over on the Mobilinc forums.

bmercier Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 @MWareman, cool, so it works through portal then! @Xathros, I looked around in the logs around 11:20 EST and could not find anything unusual. Quote

As far as I could tell, it connected fine but failed during sync. Much more likely an issue with Mobilinc and my extensive USY configuration. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
ahwman Posted November 19, 2015 Posted November 19, 2015 Hi MWareman,This is absolutely not expected. Please do be kind enough to send me your UUID so that I can take a look.With kind regards,Michel Michel, I just purchased the ISY portal a few minutes ago and this exact thing happened to me as well. Upon rebooting my ISY, the MobiLinc portal is now gone. I'm not currently using MobiLinc Connect though I still use MobiLinc via direct IP. Should I send you my UUID as well? Also, where are the directions to configure the portal? Thanks, Chuck Quote
xKing Posted November 19, 2015 Posted November 19, 2015 You don't need a MobiLinc portal for the direct IP use so you should be ok For portal setup - go to http://my.isy.ioand register it Quote
ahwman Posted November 20, 2015 Posted November 20, 2015 Thanks so much. Is it possible to use the ISY portal login for MobiLinc as I've been having connection issues over SSL with the latest version of MobiLinc and would like to test the ISY portal as an alternate method... Thanks, Chuck Quote
ahwman Posted November 20, 2015 Posted November 20, 2015 I used the unencoded url. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Xathros, I would also like to use the ISY portal login with MobiLinc as I've been having connection issues with SSL in the newest version of MobiLinc but can't figure it out. Would you be so kind as to provide the connection settings for MobiLinc in conjunction with the ISY portal? Thanks so much! Chuck Quote
MWareman Posted November 20, 2015 Posted November 20, 2015 (edited) To use Mobilinc with ISY Portal.... Logon to ISY Portal and get the Admin Console URL (the one with /desc at the end). Use device type ISY - not Mobilinc connect. In Mobilinc, blank out the HTTP URL. You won't use it. Place the Admin Console URL in the HTTPS box (you'll need to remove https:// at the beginning of the url - its implied in the box). For connection type, select 'HTTPS' (not auto). Set you username and password to the portal username and password. Sync. Enjoy. If you want to use direct http on the LAN, you'll need to use a different connection profile rather than add the HTTP settings. The credentials will be different! Michael.

Thanks Michael, I was able to get MobiLinc to connect using the ISY portal, unfortunately it gets stuck updating at "Parsing Address: 22253 Details". Any idea why it's hanging up? Thanks again, Chuck Quote

Any idea why it's hanging up? Thanks again, Chuck Hi Chuck, I don't have an answer for you but I can sympathize. Mine crashes during the "Parsing Address ..." phase rather than hanging. I have gone back to regular HTTPS and HTTP for remote/local operation as I use mine both in and out of the house regularly and switching profiles would be too much of a hassle. -Xathros Edited November 20, 2015 by Xathros Quote

Maybe this would be a good question to ask Wes. The only reason I would like to get this working is because I'm having connection issues with MobiLinc since v4.5 and sometimes my geofence doesn't trigger correctly. Also, I don't know why you would have to create a local and away profile, as I would think this would work both in and outside of your LAN. Chuck Quote

Chuck Because the credentials are different when using the portal and Mobilinc only allows one set of credentials per profile. -Xathros Edited November 20, 2015 by Xathros Quote

In other words, why not use only the SSL connection scheme both locally and remotely? Quote

In other words, why not use only the SSL connection scheme both locally and remotely? In my case, because the HTTPS connection is quite noticeably slower and with a complex Mobilinc profile it becomes to slow for regular use around the house. When away, having to wait 10-15 seconds to check the status once in a while is fine. -Xathros Quote

MobiLinc connect is very fast and reliable, unfortunately it can't be used alongside the ISY portal. Maybe that will change in the future... Quote
MWareman Posted November 20, 2015 Posted November 20, 2015 Mobilinc Connect is just another connection profile. It can sit with profiles for ISYPortal and direct to ISY as well... At least on Android it can.. Quote

At least on Android it can.. I believe you're talking about profiles within the MobiLinc app itself. I was referring to the ISY, as the MobiLinc Connect portal and ISY portal cannot coexist. It's currently a one or the other proposition... Edited November 20, 2015 by ahwman Quote
Shawn Aruch Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Is there a GET url that I can use with the portal to activate or deactivate devices or scenes remotely? Quote
Michel Kohanim Posted December 2, 2015 Author Posted December 2, 2015 Hi Shawn, Yes. You can use ISY REST APIs. The URL prefix is under ISY information in the portal. With kind regards, Michel Quote
ENrgStar Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Soo, I don't know if this was already there, or if I just noticed it, but the ISY Skill seems to now be available in the Skill Store for Echo. I'm so excited!! How do we get in? What's the ETA on opening up the Portal to everyone? We should have a central topic that we can refer back to for the most updated info. Good work guys! Elam Quote
