1. Is there a way to have the plugin run a task on the phone?

2. Are there any docs on the scripting API for the Tasker Plugin?

Thanks;

Did I mention how I like this plugin

Use variable from event name in handler commands

$

0
Is it possible to capture the event name in GCal and reuse it for creating a command in a handler? What I would like to do is:

1. Look in one or more calendars for all events that starts with a codeword followed by a number and a name. Example "R3941656 Luke Skywalker". The handler shall only trigger if it finds "R*"

2. Take the last 4 digits in the 7 digit number and store it as a variable

3 Create an action that will set the code of a Z-wave lock to the number from the variable. This can be done using BLLock (I think)

A little bacground on why I would like this. Reservations are made for tennis courts in a Google Calendar. The booking system creates an unique reservation code. Instead of creating a general code that "everybody" knows, the solution as outlined above would make it possible for the person who booked the court to unlock the gate by using their reservation #

Does UltraFlowMeter3 work with the HS Z-wave valves?

Mostly looking for the metering functions (more than on/off) so this looks like a great setup. Is it Fortrezz only?

divToUpdate not rendering

$

I have never had success with using divToUpdate to dynamically alter a plugin web page. I have taken the Sample from the SDK with only edits to reflect the plugin name and page and I can trap on the postBackProc in VisualStudio to watch the execution of the attempted update, but never see anything change on the browser page. Looking at this board I see many have success so should be something simple that I am missing.

IFACE_NAME was used in the SDK as a parameter to build the jquery button. When I do this then I do not get the callback when the button is pressed. What does work for me is the page name rather than the interface name as the parameter. The other difference is the SDK did not have sufficient parameters for hs.GetPageHeader so I added a string parameter so it would compile.

All other aspects of my jQuery-based pages work, but just not the dynamic update of HTML between div tags.

Code:

Class TESTASP

    Inherits clsPageBuilder
    Implements IDisposable

    Private TEST_PAGE = "Test"
    Public Sub New() 'ByVal pagename As String)
        MyBase.New(TEST_PAGE)
    End Sub

Public Overrides Function postBackProc(page As String, data As String, user As String, userRights As Integer) As String
            Me.divToUpdate.Add("current_time", "ABC")
            Return ""
end Function

Public Function GetPagePlugin(ByVal pageName As String, ByVal user As String, ByVal userRights As Integer, ByVal queryString As String) As String
        Dim stb As New StringBuilder

        Try
            Me.reset()
            Dim parts As Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection = Nothing
            If (queryString <> "") Then
                parts = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(queryString)
            End If
            Me.AddHeader(hs.GetPageHeader(TEST_PAGE, TEST_PAGE, "", "", True, False))
            stb.Append(clsPageBuilder.DivStart("pluginpage", ""))
            stb.Append(clsPageBuilder.DivStart("errormessage", "class='errormessage'"))
            stb.Append(clsPageBuilder.DivEnd)
            stb.Append("<div id='current_time'>" & DateTime.Now.ToString & "</div>" & vbCrLf)
            Dim b As New clsJQuery.jqButton("b1", "Button", TEST_PAGE, False)
            stb.Append(b.Build)
            stb.Append(clsPageBuilder.DivEnd)
            Me.AddBody(stb.ToString)
            Me.AddFooter(hs.GetPageFooter)
            Me.suppressDefaultFooter = True
            Return Me.BuildPage()
        Catch ex As Exception
            'WriteMon("Error", "Building page: " & ex.Message)
            Return "error"
        End Try
    End Function
End Class

Won't stay connected

Having an issue just recently where the plugin doesn't stay connected to the device. It has happened the past week, maybe 2; I log in to HS3 and reconnect it, it may work once or twice and then stops again. It was working reliably prior, maybe 2 months since I registered. Nothing has changed on my network, at least that I am aware of but I would be the one making any changes. The computer running HS3 and the Receiver are both wired to the network, so wireless doesn't play a roll in this. It's frustrating as I was really enjoying using the plugin in my scripts. Any advice or help you might be able to offer would be most appreciated!

Referencing Devices will not stay checked

When I am entering events, I just noticed that when I select "Check All" in the "Referencing Devices" dropdown, they automatically revert back to unchecked, and thus I do not get insteon trigger or manual trigger options in the event IF dropdown.

Any tips on how I can keep the "Referencing Devices" checked?

How to troubleshoot...

My MyQ garage doors stopped working today.
HS3 log does look like everything is normal. However the doors do not open or close by HS3.
I'm not rushing to blame HS3 or the plug-in. I think that the WiFi network in the garage could be the problem. However I have no way to prove it. My iPhone shows good WiFi in the garage. Is there a way to test if the doors are connected to the network and to troubleshoot where the problem is actually.

Thanks,

We are deep in development of our new mobile application for use with HS3. If you have a feature you would like to see in this application, please post your request here.

FAQ (subject to change!):

Q: Is this a free app?
A: Yes, this application will be free for HS3 users

Q: What is different between HomeSeer Mobile and HSTouch?
A: HSTouch will live on as our custom solution for creating a custom control app using the HSTouch Designer. HomeSeer Mobile is a new app built from the ground up to be fast and easy to use. It will not be as customizable as HSTouch, but it will be easier to use.

Q: What will the UI look like?
A: Soon we will post some screen shots for comments. It will contain user configurable dashboards, devices lists, device details, and camera views.

Q: Will it require MyHS?
A: No, you can easily log in with your MyHS credentials, or you can connect directly to your HS3 system using its IP or DNS name.

New devices overwriting existing ones - HELP!

Whenever I go to add a new z-wave device it overwrites an existing one. Yesterday I added a new GE light switch and it overwrote a motion sensor. I went to re install the motion sensor and it overwrote a different wall switch. What is going on or what am I doing wrong. I'v used z-tool and also tried right from the computer running HomeSeer. It's getting frustrating to the point I'm afraid to add any new devices.

Anyone having trouble with Windows 10 updates rebooting HS3 controllers?

$

So I am running Windows 10 HOME on a small Intel NUC and now I'm having trouble with Microsoft pushing automatic updates (Windows updates) and forcing reboots. I am trying to sort out getting HS3 to auto start when Windows starts but so far I'm not having much luck.

On top of it all, this morning when it rebooted I guess it didn't shut down cleanly so now most of my devices are gone - HS3 complained about a corrupt database when it started up.

I'm able to restore a backup from a couple weeks ago, but it's still a nuisance.

Anybody able to disable Win10 updates on the Home version? I have read quite a bit online and it seems like MS now forces updates on the home version.

My next move it to fire up an older PC I have that's running Windows 7 professional and I'll move HS3 to that.

Creating an event using multiple door sensors

$

I have a heater in my garage. I have 3 doors with sensors (A, B, C). I have a connected thermostat.

I have the following event:

Event 1
If Door Sensor A changes and becomes open
Set 'heater state virtual device' to current thermostat mode
Set thermostat mode to 'Off'

Event 2
If Door Sensor A changes and becomes closed
Set thermostat mode to 'heater state virtual device'

This works as it stores the current state of the thermostat, turns it off while the door is open, than sets it back to whatever state it was before.

NOW, the fun part. I have 2 other doors. I'd like it to turn off the heat when ANY door is open, but if door B opens, and I set the state when door B opens, it will set the state to off (as the thermostat mode is off due to door A being open).

How would I go about turning off the heat but remembering what the state was when the first door opens, and back when the last one closes, in any order?

Bug in events page?

$
0
0
So I often use multiple devices in a single line event but seem to have run into a bug here. I deleted a dead z-wave device (#522 in this example) but now I can't seem to get rid of it from the group of devices. Do I just need to delete the whole group and re-create it? That's going to be cumbersome as the deleted device was in several events as part of a group.

If the device was still available I can select the first item in the device list called "Remove this device" which obviously I should have done first. I usually "find events with the selected device" first and modify before deleting the device.

Imperihome camera issue since android update

$

0
I still use my Samsung GS6 and have Imperihome configured in it.
I had created about a year and a half ago a project that had a camera page. So when I went to the page (actually split in two pieces) the cameras would update right there and then - one camera for the top and one for the bottom section. Now I get "error updating camera from those pages. If I select the non-updating/failing image, then I could go and watch in real-time the camera full screen as before. But not on the root page. I even created a new test page and get the same thing.
I also have a Tab3 with the same config on it which still works - (both cameras update as usual).

I'm at a loss here... Does anyone know if there is a solution to this? Nothing has changed on my server with this... no additions or modification to the IH plugin. Kinda obvious as it works on the Tab3 running old android version.

I submitted a request to IH but have not heard back now - over a month.

Any Android guru's here know what might be causing this.

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Wim

Just added another 25 bulbs in my new extension and I've noticed the errors below? I've got a lot of stuff to add and I'm going to do my long awaited HS3 maintenance as I'm adding new rooms, sensors etc
So before I go any further - any ideas what this is? I have an old database but would prefer to keep it if I can.

Ra2 Plug-in will not load

Running HS3 on SEL with Z-Net version .368 on SEL. Changed network so IP changed. I updated IP address in Ra2 plug-in and all was working. I then updated to version .368, restarted my SEL and plug-in will not load. Tried to delete the plug-in and reinstall but still does not load. Keep getting the following messages in the log:

I am getting

weatherXML Error backupXMLFileDelete: Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow.

in my logs and have traced it to the schedules page and setting the number of backups for each of the scheduled items.

If I have the BACKUP checkbox unchecked and a number in the # of backups I seem to get this error.

If I clear the # of backups box to NOTHING (ie empty) the error goes away.

But on restart the box return to having the #10 in them.

I was wondering why there is a limit of 9 arduino's and if there is a way to expand this?
I need to control about 12 Arduino's for a project I'd like to build.

Thanks!
