Using Temperatures from the ELK in ISY

[IT Solutions]

I am able to compare an ELK temperature to fixed value, and able to send an ELK temperature in an email, but that is all I have figured out one can do with an ELK Temperature in ISY.

I am looking for a way to compare an ELK temperature to a variable, and set a variable to the current ELK temperature.  I am not seeing a way to do that.  I am trying to track the high and low temperature in an area for the day.

Is there a way to do this?

Thank you.

You would need to use a REST command on your Network Resources page. This example puts ELK zone 9 temperature into var1able 1/9.

The other example is for voltage.

@garybixler I created this:

 

but when I run a test on it I get:

Can you see what we are doing wrong?  Thank you.

I think maybe the port number. 5010 is what I use to access my ISY. You would use the port that you use to access your ISY. Default is 80 I think or what ever is configured on your config page.

Hope that is the solution.

Also authorization needs to be added. Just click on the the add button half way down and select authorization from the pull down. It will ask you to enter your user id and password.

@garybixlerThat was it. Thank you very much.
