Random lights turning on...solved

[warren@wcnjsmith.com]

Yes, indeed multiple times on reset and interface update.


Any ideas why this command would get transmitted from the plugin. No events triggered (only have 3 set up) , no groups set up. Only happened once yesterday and that was when the devices turned on at the random time.

What is SetIOMulti and TransmitGroupMsg ? When would these commands be sent and under what conditions.

Many thanks,
Warren

SetIOMulti is what HS4 uses to control insteon devices. the plugin does not call that itself

something from hs (mobile app, alexa, hs event, etc) is calling the plugin

SOLVED the problem. I was polling my 30+ devices at the rate of 1 second each - apparently just totally overloading the communications within the plugin and HS4. HS$ apparently became confused once in awhile and there the 'lets turn on group 254" message.

Since turning off polling - no odd issued with group 254 being activated. Response time is much better too.

Thank you and plugin working just great now.
