Hi All,

Just installed the ping sensor in UI4 , create a new device.
Pinging will work ( sensor will be tripped , or not tripped )

But after creating a scene , when sensor is tripper ( means ip is active ) . Set power state ( plugin module) to on.
But there is no response on the scene

When I start de scene manually , it works.

What about you’re experiance …?

Is there any body use the pins sensor together with UI4 (Vera I ) …?

Thanks
Marco

I haven’t tried it for a while but a few versions back (the last time I tried it) it was broken. I suspect it never worked properly with UI4.

Yes it works. But I installed it on UI2 before switching to UI4.
So I don’t know if it installs on UI4 natively

Good luck

The ping sensor will work in UI2 & UI4. However it has issues.

#1. It cannot be bypassed, when manually toggling from Arm to Bypass it appears to be in Bypass mode but the sensor will continue to ping. Having a scene toggle Arm & Bypass does not work.

#2. The code of the plugin has errors and will cause more problems with UI4 than UI2.

#3. Due to the code errors of the plugin it will use more Vera memory logging those errors.
