Geofencing never worked for me so I wanted to try using an iBeacon to track if I'm home or not. I bought a Radius X2 but, while it works fine, it doesn't cover my entire house even at the highest power setting. If I get a second one and configure it with the same UUID, will Space treat that UUID...

Any experiences yet with HaikuHelper on Yosemite?

I have a much smaller installation but UPB has been very solid over the years. I needed an SA coupler (wired into the breaker box) but that was it to make everything rock solid. Only real UPB hardware problem I've encountered is when I recently switched my garage from incandescent to LED. There...

I use an iPod Touch as a dedicated remote. It will make your life much easier if you only use one remote technology. You might supplement with the hard button remote for your most frequently used device but leave all the complex stuff to the Touch.   I've been pretty happy using Roomie Remote...

Make sure the software you are planning to use supports the LTe. I found out after I bought my LTe that the software I was using (Elve) didn't support it. I switched to Haiku/Haiku Helper but if Elve had not become untenable anyway, I would have been sad about my purchase.   I have...

How about a way to limit which items appear in Haiku?  I've got flags and controls that I don't want to see unless I'm troubleshooting (which implies a mode setting in the iOS app).

I'm getting a large number of controller disconnect/reconnet messages on my iOS devices running Haiku (let's say 5-10/day just to start somewhere).  It happens when devices are connected locally and when connected over the Internet.  I'm not seeing any other problems on my network (not to say...

Only a minimal amount of scripting is needed.   function onZoneNotReady(zone) { if (!zone.isBypassed) { // Match zoned helper.sendNotification(controller, zone.bestDescription + ' NOT ready'); } } function onZoneReady(zone) { if (!zone.isBypassed) { // Match zoned...

Looks like I'm going the HaikuHelper route.  It only takes a couple of lines of JavaScript to keep each link synced and I don't have many extra links to update since the load connected to the switch already stays synced.  None of my links are system critical so if HH is unavailable, it's not...

I currently use:   SA UPB - lighting SA UPB I/O - dry contacts for garage door monitoring Global Cache iTach - IR contol HAI Omni LTe - controller tying together lights and door/window monitoring Haiku - monitoring and control of the HAI from iOS devices HaikuHelper - push notifications and...

I guess it's a better lesson when you figure it out for yourself. My problem was that setTimeOut had to be set to a variable, i.e.   var myUPBTimer = null function updateUPBstatus(unit,delay) { myUPBTimer = setTimeout(function() { controller.unitWithNumber(unit).requestStatus()...

  function onUPBLink(cmd, link) { if(link == 10 || link == 11) { // Match link controller.unitWithNumber(3).requestStatus(); } }    I tried this script and the issue I'm having is that most lights come with a 3.3 second fade out of the box.  The requestStatus happens before the fade...

Thanks Desert_AIP and everyone else for the detailed answers. I appreciate the time and thought everyone put into it.   It all started to make sense once I realized that the Omni doesn't understand anything done in UpStart so everything outside of the "standard" HLC/UPB configuration has to be...

My default is going to be to map physical rooms to HLC rooms the same way that I've mapped them in UpStart.  It sounds like it's more for clarity of presentation rather than anything actually depending on it.   Desert_AIP, what's the benefit in putting all your fans in one HLC room?  Is it to...

Thanks for taking the time to provide a clear example.  It makes things a lot clearer.   A couple of things I want to confirm.   1.  The Unit number in HLC matches the Device number in UpStart. 2.  The non-transmitted "internal" Link241 used on the US2-40 switches is replaced with the regular...

I tried running Elve for the status updates but it took a minute or two for the sync to happen and I decided it was too much complexity for too little reward. My installation is small so Elve didn't really offer any advantage over just doing an EVERY 1 MIN refresh in the Omni. I was originally...

I'm not using HLC because my UPB configuration pre-dates the installation of my Omni.  I don't really want to redo it into HLC unless I'm sure it's actually going to be an overall better solution.  I've read some postings about the hoops some people are jumping through to get UPB-HLC to do what...

One of the issues I'm finding using UPB with an HAI Omni is that it's easy for HAI to get out of sync with the status of the light as it doesn't update when the light is changed at a switch using a link. It works for lights on the load for the switch but not for non-load lights.  I've found a...

So far, I've only had to use the keypad to do the basic configuration.  I'm using the end user version for all my programming and to create flags, messages, and extended setup (like rooms).  It would be nice to be able to do everything with the software but I'd rather put the money towards more...

If resetting or replacing is frequent enough that I need something like the dealer version, I'll be depressed.  I assumed that products that had been around as long as the Omni controllers would be extremely reliable.   But in any case, I've got a small installation and I'm pretty sure I could...
