Controlling ISY nodes through ELK rules

[JBalog]

In the past using the ELK module I had exported scenes to the EL and even my garage door statuses through the MyQ node server.  After transitioning to polisy and the ELK node server I cannot get the ELK to control the scenes/nodes through rules or directly selecting the "lighting" from the ELK automation menu.  The nodes are the same as when PG3 was directed to the ISY994.  The ELK node server in PG3 shows the scenes and the garage doors that were exported to ELK as Nodes as light_1, light_2, light_3... etc.  Is there any way to get the ELK rules to control an ISY scene now?

There was a long discussion here:  https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/38897-how-to-import-devices-into-elrp-using-a-node-server/#comment-350498

and the issue exists here: https://github.com/UniversalDevicesInc-PG3/udi-poly-ELK/issues/67

No direct resolution yet.

I always found programing in the ISY much easier then in the Elk.

However, if you have a need for this, one workaround would be to have the Elk rule turn on an output and in reaction to the output turning on, ISY would run a scene.

I was trying to manually edit the file I used to import nodes from my Isy to elkrp to direct it to the polisy as my nodes have not changed but it does not look like there is an address of the Isy/polisy in the xml file. How does the elk m1 know what to communicate with?

As I mentioned two posts above yours, this is currently not supported and I provided the links to the current discussions.

Thank you. I understand it is not supported. You did mention manually entering the addresses of nodes to export at one point in the discussion with Michel. I thought that manually editing the xml file from the isy994 might work but I guess not. Thank you for all your hard work in making the Node Server.
