Simplest programs won't run


Go to solution Solved by Geddy,

Recommended Posts

New Eisy.. I have had it for a while but just trying to use it for Z-wave (moving away from insteon).  I have used isy-99 for years.   Can't get the simplest of program to run.

Program 1: (Doesn't work)
If Pantry Door open (Elk Zone)

Then Turn Pantry Light On (Z-wave Switch)

If I watch Event Viewer I see the Elk Zone change to open when I open the door.

I can turn the pantry light on and off with Admin Console.

If I open the door and run "if" in the program nothing shows in the event viewer

Program 2: (Works)

I have another program that works ok.

If hall PIR  (Elk Zone) violated

Then dim Powder Room Light 50% (Z-wave Dimmer)

I have tried ever resetting everything I can think of.............

@Me2 please post the actual program that doesn’t work…right click on the program and select “COPY to clipboard” and paste it into your reply. 

I’m not familiar with the Elk plugin, but it seems that you might be using control rather than status, but depends on how the zone change is handled by the plugin and IoX. 

On the program that doesn’t work right click and select “Run Then”. Does the light turn on? If so then the IF needs to be edited.

New Program - [ID 0005][Parent 0001]

If
        'Home / Pantry Door' Physical Status is Open
 
Then
        Set 'Pantry Light' On
 
Else
   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
 

On the program that doesn’t work right click and select “Run Then”.  Does not turn light on.

Thanks for posting and confirming that "THEN" does indeed turn the light on. Seems like might be something with the ELK plugin. Perhaps others with experience with ELK can chime in with assistance.

What are other statuses of the Elk "Pantry Door"? If you leave the door open does the admin console show status "Open"? Or does it indicate a different status?

Your are using physical status for triggering the program. For the fun of it, try changing your IF portion to use the logical status. It should be the first item in the drop down list.

If
        'Home / Pantry Door' Logical Status is Violated

Running The THEN doesn't turn the light on.  And I do not see the "run then" in the "event verier"....

If I open the door the status changes yo "open"....

I have tried both "physical and Logical". Neither work.

I installed another z-wave switch just now:

Program.........

3-4 Stair Light - [ID 0002][Parent 0001]

If
        'Home / Greenroom Door' Logical Status is Violated
 
Then
        Set '3-4 Stair Light' On
        Wait  5 minutes
        Set '3-4 Stair Light' Off
 
Else
   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
This doesn't work neither.  I can turn '3-4 Stair Light' off/on from admin console.  If I "run then" it doesn't do anything.  I do not set any action in the "event viewer".

Let's take a step back and check some basic's.

First, reboot your eisy. Wait at least 15-20 minutes and then open the event viewer and set to level 3. Then open your pantry door (leave door open) and check what shows up in the event viewer while set to level 3. 

Next, right click your program and select Status. The status window will open and the appropriate line will be highlighted. 

What does it say for status, last run time, & last finish time.

Let's also rule out an issue with the Elk Plugin.

Open PG3x, go to Elk Dashboard, Details, Log - set log level to debug.

Open pantry door and leave it open while you check the log. Did the log show up as violated?

Close the pantry door and check the log to see if the zone return to normal.

There is a check box you can uncheck to prevent the log from scrolling if you are getting a lot of log entries. It is called Autoscroll.

Status shows Pantry Light on - did the light turn on for you? 

If not, you may be having a communications issue. Zwave is a mesh system, how many devices do you have installed?

Looks to me like the Plugin is working correctly.

The light does not turn on.  I have 3 devices installed so far.

From the admin console the on/off of this device works 100% of the times.

From what you posted above, the status said on.

Try it again, right click on program and check status, last run time, and last finish time.

uh oh! I misread your earlier post then. Sorry. Was doing too many different things this morning. 

If the light isn't turning on when you just "RUN THEN" the problem is controlling that device...with that program. Can you control the device in the admin console directly?
