kevincol Posted June 21, 2020 Posted June 21, 2020 There was a topic on this back in 2014, that was for Blue Iris 4. The same method doesn't seem to work in Blue Iris 5. I simply want to take a motion event from a camera managed by Blue Iris 5 and execute a program in ISY994i to turn on a light for 5 minutes and then turn it off. I can't find any instructions on how to do that. I see that there is Polygot mentioned for integration between Blue Iris 5 and ISY994i, but I don't really want to install a nodeserver to just do that type of operation.
PhanTomiZ Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) What was your old method? I use Blue Iris to set a variable in ISY. This method worked for me in BI 4 as it does for BI 5. PhanTomiZ Edited June 22, 2020 by PhanTomiZ
markv58 Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 On the camera settings Alert tab, check Post to a web address or MQTT server and configure with: user:password@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port/rest/programs/####/runThen or something similar. This obviously requires a program Then and/or Else and is profile specific. I mostly use the Polyglot to do things but certain things use the above method.
