Yeah maybe poll wasn’t the right word. I meant show the level to PLEG.

The lack of volume control in scenes is turning out to be an issue for me. The default volume appears to be too low to hear TTS from Vera Alerts. I just quickly tried placing two successive UP commands before the Vera Alerts message and the volume didn’t go up. So it’s looking pike that doesn’t work either. I’ll have more time to tinker with it this weekend. Maybe Sunday.

82

Keep in mind the default volume (at least on my CAM) is configurable in each zone. Don’t know if that helps.

As for reporting to PLEG, the current volume is shown as a variable in the Advanced tab at the bottom.

83

Hmmmmmm. Not sure that it is on the CAA66 but I will look into it. Thanks for the tip.

84

I couldn’t get it to properly monitor the variable so I’ve implemented a text box in the Control tab that allows you to enter a volume value. Let me know when you’re able to test the rest of the functions and I’ll put together the new version.

85

Crazy! Having you as an active member on the forum is like having a second Christmas. I’ll get back to you Sunday evening on the errors.

86

I can’t seem to get the log process to work. I’m using winscp and when I execute tail -f LuaUPnP.log | grep ‘^5’ > log.txt I get a "host is not communicating for more than 15 seconds etc. etc. message. Could this be due to logging to a USB drive? Can I just reboot Vera, run the functions which do not work and then attach the log file gleaned manually?

EDIT:

Also, I’ve been tinkering with this all afternoon and… SO FAR… all that I can see which is failing is All On.

87

EDIT: Just re-read your post. You’ll need to “cd” into whatever directory on the USB stick has your LuaUPnP.log file if it is not in /var/log/cmh/…

Are you changing into the correct directory first? Before you run that command you need to:

cd /var/log/cmh

Also make sure you’ve checked the box for Verbose Logging in the Logs section of the Vera.

88

Yep. Did all that for sure. Could it be that I’m using winscp?

EDIT

OK. If I still have issues could I just get the entire log the old fashioned way?

89

That’s fine.

90

@S-F, let me know when you’re able to upload a log file showing the error for All On.

91

I haven’t forgotten. Just really busy. I may be able to get to it tonight or tomorrow but by the end of th3 weekend definitely.

I have been using this all the time and I can say that the only thing that doesn’t seem to be working is the Al On command.the rest is fantastic! I have two questions. 1, how can the state of the devices be used as inputs in PLEG? They aren’t available under triggers or device properties. 2, how’s work coming on the plugin?

Thanks again!

94

Under Advanced what do the variables Input and Status represent? I’d imagine they are for power and source but they don’t seem to reflect these states in the devices.

95

Any word on the new version?

96

It’s still pending approval from last week. I don’t know how long it’s going to take this time around.

97

Well. The forum will probably be defunct as well as Vera and MCV as a whole before it gets approved at this rate. Would you mind posting the new plugin here for us, me, to benefit from while we salute a sinking ship?

98

I’ve attached it to the first post. The icon images are not included but if you have a previous version installed, it’ll use the image files already on the Vera from that installation.

There is no longer any options to turn a zone on or off from the advanced tab of the scene creation interface. The previously created off commands in scenes don’t work but the on commands do. I have yet to try setting a zone to off from the main gui portion on the scene editor.

It uses SwitchPower now. Trying setting that target to 0 for off and 1 for on.
