I need to crack open the box and see. At a minimum when the alarm is going off it lights up a light build and starts ringing a bell. I assume there is some way I could potentially tap into one of those actions being turn on.

Has anyone ever done anything with a septic alarm. Mine recently went off while I was out at dinner due to a toilet flapper that got stuck open. Luckily my neighbor saw the light and heard the exterior alarm and gave me a call. Would love to do something where I can receive a notification if it is alarming.

AC Infinity fans setups is what I use.

Like buying a new model of car. I always wait for the V2.

Was the replacement time period a Solar Edge issue or an installer issue? My inverters are also Solar Edge so curious. Before I got my system I talked to a guy that’s a friend of a friend who works in the commercial solar business. He told me the manufacturers like Solar Edge are usually pretty good, but these small to medium installers come and go a lot. So their individual maintenance warranties aren’t worth the paper they are written on.

I have a 31.45kw system here in VA. 70 panels on a ground mount about 500 ft from my house. I was paying 500-600 a month for electric by the time I did it that was only going up every year. I paid 80k for my system, got a 22k fed tax credit (it’s a credit not a deduction) that prevented me from having to pay 30k to the feds last year. I also get an 80k deduction on my real estate taxes for 5 yrs. In 11 months I generated 42mw which paid me about 2.2k from SRECs that covers my yearly propane bill (main floor heat, cook top, tankless water heater, outdoor grill and 22kw generator). I haven’t had an electric bill at all since Jan 2022. Think we are expecting full return after all the tax breaks, SRECs, no bills around 9.5 years. Note it also increases the value of your home should you decide to sell prior to getting the return. All and all, I’ve been very happy with the investment and luckily I paid for it with stocks that are now currently in the toilet so I actually timed it well.

Just to close this out. Dev support for the driver got involved and found a bug that has now been resolved

Ticket submitted. Upon further look it seems the C4 driver hasn't checked into Tankutility/pulled a reading since late in the evening Dec 14th. Allow login in directly to Tankutility shows the Tankutility device itself has been checking in successfully daily. Display Diagnostics says there is no errors found. Selecting the submit diagnostics options errors out. So guess we will see what they say. On a different note, Merry Xmas everyone.

Ok. It’s no rush. When I click display diagnostics it says no errors found. I’m running the latest versions of everything for director, and my devices are all iOS devices (iPad and iPhone), also running the latest versions.

Hey everyone, I have the Tankutility driver to display the percentage of propane I have left in my tanks. Recently the driver stopped displaying the percentage in navigator for both of my tanks and instead is showing a red ring with ???% in the display. From the driver properties it looks like it is reading my tanks and connecting to them properly. I noticed there was a recent driver update around 12/16. Is anyone else using this driver from drivercentral and having any issues? It’s been pretty solid until now.

Just thought I’d throw in I’m using the Chowmain driver with Hikvision NVR. I have no issues at all getting live streams.

Word. Thanks everyone. Guess I was over thinking it

Do you then send both endpoint and volume to the receiver, or you split. Endpoint as matrix zone and volume as receiver

Hey everyone, Basically I have a Triad Matrix and Im trying to integrate it into an audio zone that is driven by a Receiver. Setting 1: I currently have the receiver set to the correct Input with a static High Volume. Then in the connections I have the Matrix set as the audio end point 1 and the audio volume 1. Setting 2: Ive also tried the semi inverse, in which I set a static volume on the Matrix output, then set the audio end point 1 to the Matrix and the audio volume 1 to the Receiver. Not sure if one way is recommended or better than the other. Is one of these options the correct way to do it, or am I over thinking this? What I don't like about either option currently is the Receiver basically isn't controlled by the room activation automatically. I know I could add some programming to the room on/off to power on/off the receiver, just didn't know if maybe Im over thinking it like I mentioned and I should do it a different way that would also turn the receiver on/off automatically without extra programming. Thoughts/opinions?

Looks like it all of a sudden started working again today. Nothing changed that I’m aware of.

Looks like my C4 App on my phone updated today and when I click on cameras I no longer see preview images for any of my cameras (Lilin and Hikvision). If I select a camera it does take me to the full screen feed if my camera without issue. iPhone 14 Pro: On the latest version of iOS. Director: 3.3.1.639488 App: 322.45.0

I’ve always thought about possibly running USB to rooms that were not in range. You’d have to plug in the controller for it to work, but could get your further distance possibly.

Cracking sound of speakers when ever is off is most likely the gain being turned up too high on the amplifier.

Plex or movies within Plex? I have a Plex icon in my navigator under Watch that when I select it automatically opens Plex. The Plex client is either running on a FireTV or a NVidia Shield in my house. So basically I don’t have to select Fire TV and then launch Plex. I select Plex and it automatically launches the Plex app on the FireTV

I have a ds918 running DS Video (Videostation) and Plex. DS Video worked very well. I started to transition to Plex because it integrates with my digital movie posters (movieposterapp) and you can set it to play a custom trailer before each movie which is something I plan to add to my theater setup. I have 12TB of movies so far, no issues. Mostly Blu-ray quality, but have about 40 or so 4k UHD movies.

NeverMind. I just did a switch reboot sequence in it and they are working again.

Had a few brown outs the other day and noticed one of my switches the LEDs aren't lighting up anymore. They were working before the brown out. As anyone seen this before? Everything else works as expected with the switch.

Flashing green usually means the switch has been reset to factory defaults and you need to relink it.

Thanks for the responses Mitch got me straight.
