Thank You Again. I know I'm Pushing it. 

You are not looking for field tester, are You

I added UNVR on 192.168.10.8 and connection to the Control4 controller is become intermittent, It keeps dropping it. Can some one please provide an example or an idea of rule(s) on the network, I would have to create

**192..1.1-10. Network equipment.
**192..9.2-100... Office, House and Smart Home equipment. 
**192..10.2-50 CCTV Cameras 192...10.2-39
UNVR is 192..10.8
Control4 Processor 192..9.1

Use 192.168.9.1 as your udm address on your control4.  That’s the ip on the subnet you setup.  
 

Alternatively, use host name style and simply enter unifi as the address in the driver

Thank You. It worked

Confirming: I can't ping UDM (Router) From Control4 Processor. My head is exploding. 
I can ping UDM from my PC . PC and processor sitting on very similar scenarios
Same network, Wired, same port setting, Processor on static IP, My PC on DHCP.

If you’re on the home or office network, can you ping the UDM?

If not, you most likely don’t have any rules in place to allow that. 

You are right, I can't ping it from processor. Yet I can from my PC, Investigating

Update: I'm using the ping driver, Noticed.  it can only ping processor itself or google.com. In my case at least 

Yes, I can Ping UDM, Yet I didn't set any rules 

Hi, everyone. I'm currently working on choosing an alarm system for myself and my clients.  My main goal always set it and forget it.

My main question: Is there DSC compatible Wireless motion  sensor with no delay.

Most sensors I've tried, Short of ""Control4 and "ClareOne" has some logic in them to save battery power. Sensor thinks: "I just reported, so no need to report second time with in with in few long minutes" or  "Was it a motion or not, lets wait to confirm"  

So far tried DSC, IQ, and ClareOne. My personal non security expert opinion 

DSC- Pros: Solid with serial connection. Cons: It is takes time. 

Qolsys - Didn't get to do much of testing, stopped on motion sensor issue  

ClareOne: It failed twice, what I remember, with in few months(2-3 months)

If your goal is to record events then this driver will do what you want.

https://chowmain.software/drivers/control4-event-logging

combined with

https://chowmain.software/drivers/control4-notification-suite

and you can email it out whenever you want.

 

You once said:

"With the variable manipulator you can do this using os.time() and os.date()."

Can you please post some examples.

What's the second typo?
(I saw the one with the cap in the variable name in the Set command)

The first one Capital letter should be  "Timestamp" instead of "TimeStamp"

So what are you trying to do that ovrc can't?

Get log before rebooting. Yet, this is a  different subject. I created this topic For timestamp problem, I can easily see many different scenarios  where I'm going to use it.

What email are you going to send w no internet? This is why RMMs do this from the server...

.....when an internet comes back. I have one RMM. it is called OVRC.

I found 2 typos in programming, still may be more, Yet. can be proud of myself, I don't do this kind of programming. 

Tank You Everyone and big Thank You RAV

Timestamp.c4i

I just can't believe it is not passable. Getting something as simple as current time and date

Just a heads up, but you're better off using something that uses http command to check if the internet is online anyway

 

The free ping driver runs the ping command, and it's fairly public knowledge that drivers running commands likely will break in the future (for security reasons, and probably because I suspect they are blocking commands which stall everything else)

I agree with You. I'm looking at Generic TCP Command driver, I just can't buy them all. Yet at least. If You can suggest anything else I'm very open,  My feeling for Generic TCP Command if/then I figurate it out, it opens more doors. 

As for ping Driver, It does what it promises yet at least, it didn't work for me. If Host is nor reachable variable doesn't get updated. I already killed all the screenshotted code, and there is a critical error in it, so if reused use caution.

{}{}{}commands which stall everything else) these are new words for me

I’m still confused as to what you are asking?  So if internet is off do what?

Before I figured out "Free  Ping Driver" not going to work for this challenge, The Idea was to save Three Variables with ping results and send email with those results with timestamp attached to each of them, once internet gets back. The code on the screenshot is not final, but should give an idea.

From my Archives.... (not my driver)

This driver provides a timestamp text string as a variable to use in email and push notifications.

Through programming you select when to set the variable.
Then you can include the last set in an email, push etc.

DW_Timestamp.c4i 2.49 kB · 2 downloads

Ether I'm doing something wrong or it is 3.2.4 version or else??.

Variables:

  TempHoldTimestamp (string variable)

Macro: Test

  Save Timestamp

  Delay: 2sec

  Set Variable ->TempHoldTimestamp to the value of test room->Timestamp->Timestamp

As results I can see current Timestamp in Lua output of Timestamp driver. but "TempHoldTimestamp" variable doesn't get the value. it is get overwritten. before  I had run the test macro, I vent to variable agent in put random characters in TempHoldTimestamp variable, It got empty after running macro

There are lua commands for grabbing current time.

https://www.lua.org/pil/22.1.html

You could use that and save the info to an array/table 

This is a very same website I've got from Chowmain support. Can You or some one Please point me to the direction where to start. Links, Pictures, Project Samples . I'm Working on 3.2.4 version.

Thank You for taking your time.

First and foremost. Thank You everyone for response.

Here is a challenge I want to solve:

I had a couple issues over the last week. I was able to get it working again by re authenticating my pushover credentials. When i had issues i watched logs and noted that my pushover messages were sending something like the last 20+ messages all at once and everytime it was triggered it would mass send again causing the IFTTT Maker driver to not trigger properly. I had to reauthenticate twice and its been a few days now with no issues. 

Not sure if that helps. 

In my case Pushover part has been working very well for months (more then 6) as close to the perfect as it gets, I actually like it better over C4 home assistant new driver. Seems to be faster. If I may ask: What is Your local network build of?? Also I would check if it wasn't me creating self repeating loop. 

I made it to send an email to myself, the things I have changed::

1.Refreshed Webhooks key by copy and pasting it from IFTTT to C4s "IFTTT maker"

2.Copy Event name from IFTTT website to C4, not vise versa. Doubtful ... but

I noticed this in lua command "Encrypted Driver or Execute Not Allowed" doesn't stop over applets to work, I'm mot sure what  to make of it.

I just created new Home Assistant to control4 applet just fot testing and worked. Can't make Control4 to IFTTT

Thank you for response,  I'm appreciate it. I think all of that verified by the fact pushover part is working, unless key is responsible for Webhooks only. while "Pushover Secret" and "Pushover Password" for Pushover.

  Can you Check screenshots above 

Thank you for great service

Anyone using IFTTT maker and webhooks can confirm whether it is working or not???
