No response from Leviton today, I'll try the 800 number tomorrow. The website says 800-722-2082, I assume that's the number you called.

Thanks for the info, I just reached out to them via email. Which Atom based touchscreen are you using? I would imagine many things run faster than the 5.7e! Thanks again!

Pete - I've been on the hunt lately for OmniTouch Pro again and came across your post from 6 months ago. I see where you called Leviton and they said the OmniTouch Pro software is now license free - but where do you get that non-license version? Or did you call them back and they changed their...

I too am a long-time purchased "pro" user, and just discovered all of this last night. I use the app maybe once a month, either when I'm outside (to turn on lighting) or just too lazy to get up off the couch(!). The app worked well, now it crashes when I simply try and select a thermostat...

Hello All,   I'm trying to do some "convenience" updates to the old Omnitouch 5.7e's, and it's been quite a long time since they've been altered.  Automation Studio has a few nuances and glitches to get things just right... and I'm sure this is just one of those.   -  In HAI Automation Studio...

Just a minor bump on an old topic, about 2 weeks ago I noticed that the motion sensor on one of my RC-2000's stopped working.  That is, you wave your hand across the sensor on the stat and the backlight does not come on.  I wasn't particularly worried, not a feature I use on that particular...

I didn't even notice this thread was that old!  So now that someone brought it back to the top, what was the final solution?

Some ideas...    1. For "party mode" or "rain lockout" a master solenoid on the water source will work well.  It isn't an independent zone on/off control, but it does solve certain problems.   2a. I think Pete is correct about the trenching machine, I've seen the one that looks like a ride-on...

In my experience, I've used the 8-button house status switch in two ways - as a "scene" controller and as a "room status" switch.  This is how I understand it works:    - The "scene" controller is just that, you push a button and a lighting "scene" is activated.  If you set one of the regular...

I never looked at a schematic for the serial port tap, it's a very simple circuit.  I'll have to make myself a cable with a toggle switch so I can pick which side I want to monitor (or both).  I can't believe they get $189!   As a side note, I've used a fair amount of B&B Electronics serial...

As I had this very question about 2 years ago (new house, starting over), a very smart man told me once "go with what you know".  And if I never said "thanks" to Pete C., then thanks!   I stayed with all the technology I knew (HAI OP2, UPB, Z-wave locks) but was forced into a new audio system...

Thanks for all the responses!  I always appreciate input from others, it's good to have a different point of view.   vc1234, I considered some kind of data monitor between the devices, I was considering tapping into the data lines between the devices, but I know that's easier said than done.  I...

Cobra - this is the standard Z-wave / motorized deadbolt on the inside of the door, and a simple, traditional round deadbolt lock on the outside.  From Amazon:   https://www.amazon.com/Kwikset-Signature-Traditional-Electronic-Deadbolt/dp/B013KZRTTG   The only way to actuate this lock at the door...

Has anyone integrated a Kwikset 910 Z-Wave lock without the outdoor keypad into their OP2?   In the past, I have successfully integrated the 910 Z-wave with a keypad into a system, now I am trying to add the non-keypad lock version.   I have the VRC0P connected directly to a PC, so I can see the...

While researching new technology today, I stumbled upon a direct Alexa - UPB bridge at alexaUPBbridge.com   It seems like a simple enough thing to do, so while I do believe it is technically possible, the website feels... unsafe.   If it really is as the website suggests, it could be the easiest...
