Is "Automatically Upgrade Test-Polisy to 5.4.4" under Help dropdown supposed to work? It reboots my Polisy (currently on 5.4.2) but doesn't upgrade it.

I used it to upgrade mine and it did it. I cleared Java afterwards and it showed properly

[Goose66]

Yes, cleared the cache and all that, but Firmware still shows "Polisy v.5.4.2" under About.

I'd submit a ticket. I know a few people bricked their polisy units using ssh.

This only upgrades IoP and not the whole Polisy. 5.4.4 is the latest.

With kind regards,
Michel

Right. But it's not upgrading IoP.

I ran an upgrade of all the packages on my Polisy (including the UDI packages) separately when I booted up the Polisy initially. But the "Automatically Upgrade Test-Polisy to 5.4.4" in the IoP Admin Console is not upgrading IoP to 5.4.4 (remains at 5.4.2). In addition, Polyglot v3 on the Polisy is not getting upgraded either (remains at 3.0.55).

The net-net is that I can't get anything up to latest versions to test changes to a Node server before I roll it out.

[Goose66]

Also the date in the IoP Admin Console on my Polisy says Sun 08/31/1952. So that ain't good.

Did you do this recently? If so you've probably got some corrupt files.

There were issues (as @lilyoyo1 mentioned) with going the SSH route to update Polisy so UDI issued an alert to only update through IoP on configuration tab and "Upgrade Packages".  If you've recently run any SSH commands to bring ALL packages up to date then you need to start a support ticket to get the corrupt files repaired.

@Goose66,

Please submit a ticket.

IoP error after TriggerLinc option close.
IoP 5.4.4   Polyglot 3.1.10

V5.4.4 Daylight savings.

My IoP has reverted to standard time with errors that will not go away.

The displayed time in the admin console jumps backward 4 hours but corrects itself after the location is jogged by updating to the same location.

Now my sunrise is too early by one hour and my sunset is too early by two hours.

Thus happened on Sunday after the time change. Sun based time triggers have failed.

These times have been working correctly since the DST time change in spring 2022.

I have rebooted and power cycled polisy several times without any success in clearing this.



UPDATE: This cleared up the next day when I opened the admin console again. I could not get the times to correct themselves no matter what i tried the first day.

The top of the display frame of the IoP admin console on Polisy shows the date.  Does anyone know how to get access to the date (i.e. the calendar) in IoP, so that actions can be triggered by date and time, and not just by time?

I don't know if this is what you want, but in the program builder, if you select Schedule, and uncheck the Daily check box, you get access to a calendar.

I have also posted in the IoP forum today about a similar issue running IoP 5.4.4 yesterday where two scheduled programs failed to run after the time change. My time is correct right now, and I checked sunrise and sunset for today and they are correct for my timezone, but maybe they weren't (and maybe the time wasn't) when the automations were supposed to run yesterday.

That's exactly what I was looking for.  Many thanks.

Are you asking if there is a calendar that shows historical (or future) Sunset/Sunrise times?   There is not.  Latitude and Longitude are used once per day to calculate new values as displayed on the top line of the admin console.

Here's a page that explains an algorithm used for such calculations: https://gml.noaa.gov/grad/solcalc/calcdetails.html

My ISY launcher, now "IoX Launcher" does not allow Admin Console to download from the cloud. Option is there, but does not do anything when selected. LAN does work.

[Michel Kohanim]

@Illusion,

I think it might just be too slow (due some website issues). Otherwise, can you please use Java Preferences | Advanced | Check all Log + Traces AND check Show Console. Restart IoX Launcher and then choose cloud. What do you see in the Java Console?

With kind regards,
Michel

@Michel Kohanim, since using IoX Launcher, I too could not launch the Admin Console via the Cloud.  But just a few minutes ago, I tried it again and it worked.  Maybe it was the website issues.  Java Console did not show any errors.

@Illusion and @mbking there were other reports of this issue in this thread. Hopefully it was just a limited issue with UDI site/web and it's working for everybody again.

I just tested with IoP 5.4.4 and can load admin console via cloud option without issue.

Polisy firmware was recently updated to 5.4.5

Update your packages. If you're then still have issues, remove power from the Polisy for about 15 seconds.

Seems to have worked fine for me except one Node server is posting wrong data.  It is weatherbit but probably a different issue.

Cloud Admin Console worked fine today. Maybe just a temporary issue.

[brians]

What are the release notes 5.4.5?  Cloud also didn’t work for me earlier.

@Michel Kohanim Two things I am waiting for before returning to IoP.

WoL still doesn't function on any of three devices tested. Sony SoundBar, Samsung 75" TV, Samsung 55" TV. These all worked well on ISY994 V.4.x but never on IoP.

--------------------------------------------------

Modulus function gives erroneous results yet. Decimal values do not function at all. Some Integer values function.

13 %= 12 = 1
13 %= 12 = 4.000
13.000 %= 12 = 4.000

26 %= 12 = 2
26 %= 12 = 8.000
26.000 %= 12 = 8.000

28 %= 12 = 4
28 %= 12 = 4.000
28.000 %= 12 = 4.000

29 %= 12 = 5
29 %= 12 = 8.000
29.000 %= 12 = 8.000

Close, but no cigar, yet!   More work on decimal precision needed still. (factor of 4.000 seems consistent??)
Thanks!!

@Michel Kohanim@bpwwer Has anymore thought been given to upgrading the modulus function to floating point?     I didn't see it in IoP v5.4.5 upgrade

The system has several system date and time variables that can be used but only on the right side of condition equations.

I have created a few cyclic programs that update state variables so that I can create year independent programs that will operate seasonal lighting events. Time only triggers can be created in the "If" section native conditional logic.
