New Insteon Lighting Plug-In v1.2 (beta) for PLM

[mnsandler]

Attached is a beta of the next version of the PLM plugin. Below lists the New Features and Fixes.

I don't have a copy of the SDM which is required to build a version for the PLC. If someone can post a copy of the SDM3Server.dll file, i think that is all i need.

NOTE: Please backup your HS environment before installing and running this version. Specifically the config\insteon.ini file, hspi_insteon.dll, and your homeseer mdb file.

Installation: shutdown HS, backup the your installation, extract the hspi_insteon.dll to your homeseer directory, restart HS.

Please post issues and bugs as replies to this thread.


Version 1.2.0.0 beta

New Features

-Support for SwitchLinc Relay with Sensing (2476S2 -15 Amps, Rev 5.0+) [Untested]
-Sets default on-level and ramp rates for i1 Switchlinc Dimmers (requires power cycling the switches)
-Preserves the Comm Reliability stats from session to session. They are saved at shutdown and reloaded at startup.
-Resets Comm Reliability stats using the new button on the "Edit Insteon Device" page
-Provides an enhanced user interface for registered devices and groups
-Allows the Global insteon All Devices group to be permanently renamed using the standard Hs device property page.

Fixes

-Revised Polling Timer so polling would restart if plugin is restarted while HS running.
-Fixed a problem with i2 KeypadLinc Relay device settings for 6 vs 8 btn setup.
-Modified startup routine so Groups are only changed and saved if necessary. Minimizes startup log entries.
-Revised routine that checks and reports Database Link changes. Should reduce false Warnings.

Well, I shut down HS, dropped in your new .dll and restarted HS.

Nothing relating to Insteon worked!

Everytime something Insteon related was suppose to happen, I got an error in the log saying that a report has been created and contact support.

I've attached the Insteon Error Report.

Went back to old .dll and all is well again.

HS (2.3.0.127) seems be sending -1 values to the plugin instead of 0 (zeros). I can account for these errant values, but I want to find out why this is happening. I have an email into Rich who is looking into it.

the errant values are apparent in the insteon error report.log file you sent. You will see -1 values in the "11/1/2009 7:07:41 PM" log entry.

fwiw, i do not get these -1 values using hs 2.3.0.66.

I guess i will upgrade my dev HS to the latest beta so i can catch these problems.

stay tuned

One thing about your post kept going through my head ... lastest version, lastest version, lastest version ....

So I updated to the lastest version. Professional Edition 2.3.0.137

Had my fingers crossed but it still doesn't work.

Here's the new error report.

Thanks.
