While trying to query ELK Nodes Server section: If light_method is ELKNAME

• If you want the ELK Lights to Control ISY Lights then add a Light in ElkRP2 whose name matches an existing ISY node name or address >>To see a list of all your node names and address click ISY Node<<

 It opens a new window in my Firefox Browser browser that states: Unable to connect Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at 127.0.0.1:8080 and an error message in PG3 stating: ERROR: 07/28/2023 00:02:41 See log for: ELK Controller: Unknown message CD: 18000000000

What am I missing?

Change 127.0.0.1 to the Polisy/eisy address . PG3 used to give us the real IP but not anymore I guess.

Jim, I might have not been clear in our first communication. Initially I was trying to find out why none of my ELK (lighting) NAMES (except for 123) didn't populate the Elk NS. I began rudimentary diagnostics by clicking on the link that you provided to list all node names. I have attached a PDF of the PG3 Elk NS webpage showing said link on page 3 that takes me to 127.0.0.1:8080 and put a yellow call out and pointer in the right margin for your convenience.

BTW, I'm still receiving a banner on the NS stating: ERROR: 07/28/2023 23:57:36 See log for: ELK Controller: Unknown message CD: 18000000000

And I don't think my comment was included in my last attachment so I'm re-sending it again.

Yes I realize it's showing you the link to 127.0.0.1:8080. You need to change that to your IoX IP address. For some reason I can't download your PDF on my phone while on a catameran in the Caribbean, I'll have to look when at a computer at home.

You still sailing away? S_it I'm jealous.

Yep,. sailing away. Back home Tuesday.

Jim, I'd like to see if together we can come to a successful resolution with the lighting portion of the Elk NS. I'm sure your catching up on work related stuff but when you're ready I'll be waiting. Did you get a good picture of the Cat you were on?

BTW, I'm still getting this message regularly, I think I mentioned it before:

ERROR: 08/03/2023 01:09:44 See log for: ELK Controller: Unknown message CD: 18000000000

Yes, I know the link is bad, this is due to a recent change in PG3, you need to instead use http://localhost:8080/rest/nodes but change localhost to your ISY IP address.

So device 123 does match between your ELK is ISY, what other light names configured in your ELK to you expect to match with an ISY name?

 

 

Jimbo as per your suggestion I opened the link http://192.168.1.12:8080/rest/nodes only to receive an XML document which I've attached. Thanks for picking up this thread again.

XML screen.pdf

Yes, the XML is from your ISY which shows the node names that exist in the ISY so you can confirm if they march up with a light name on the Elk.

Ooooh, let me get my glasses on.

Jim, I opened the file and searched for "light", this is the only reference to any of my lighting system.

</node>
−<node flag="0" nodeDefId="counter">
<address>n004_counter_64</address>
<name>Pantry light</name>
<family instance="4">10</family>
<parent type="1">n004_controller</parent>
<type>1.2.3.4</type>
<enabled>true</enabled>

<wattage>0</wattage>
<dcPeriod>0</dcPeriod>
<startDelay>0</startDelay>
<endDelay>0</endDelay>
<pnode>n004_controller</pnode>
</node>

And concurrently none of my lights appear in my IoX tree and I believe that my pantry light shows up as a counter.

 

Just as a reminder I'm still receiving this message from the Elk NS:

ERROR: 08/07/2023 00:05:09 See log for: ELK Controller: Unknown message CD: 18000000000

 

I'm attaching a PDF of my Elk NS Page, look at the lighting def's that didn't populate.

Why are you looking for "light"?  You configured the NS for ELKNAME mode, as the documentation mentions:

• This attempts to match the name of an ISY Node with the Name of an ELK Light node to control. The table on this page will show the matches.

In other words if there is a "light" configured in your ELK, and the name of that light matches the name of a node on your ISY then you can control it from the ELK and status changes from the ISY will be updated on the ELK.

What lights do you have configured in your ELK?

Sorry for the confusion, I've attached my lighting from the ELK RP applicationOlsen Lighting.pdf

You want to just go back to the BVI's? Buy another ticket

Sorry, I don't have time to sort thru the 2 lists, can you point out one ELK Light whose name matches a node name on the ISY that you expect to be linked together but is not?

We are booking another sailing trip for next year already

 

Nothing comes up as a light so none appear in my IoX tree save a pantry light mentioned as a counter Jim. I could weed through once again.

J, for some reason the link to your Github UD-PG3 didn't copy over. That is the document I was trying to reference

 

 

Did I mention that I was the proud Owner and Captain of a 41' Morgan oil screw (USCG nomenclature) from '76 until 1981? 4"draught 25 tons Net and yes I made Operation Sail in NY Harbor in 1976. Most Patriotic day of my life.

Yes, I understand.  But can you point out a ELK Light from your Olsen Lighting.pdf which matches an EXISTING node name in the ISY?   That's how it works.  You define a Light in the ELK which matches the node name of an existing light on the ISY.

Very cool about the Morgan, we were on a Bali 46.

I don't have ANY lighting nodes in Eisy and to avoid confusion I never used any other lighting system than the UPB in my home. I helped out with PCS's migration from X-10 to Pulseworx. I will try and make some sense from the documentation on your GitHub page. With the ISY I was able to control the UPB stuff from the ISY through a Keybus PIM on the Elk. Going forward I would like to do the same thing using the Eisy > Elk to avoid licensing conflicts.

OK, understand now.  What you want is currently not available, it was actually how it worked when I originally released, but nobody wanted it that way.  It'll take some time, but I can add that as a different light_method.
