View and monitor syslog output from any system that supports the syslog protocol.Generate an e-mail notification whenever the HomeSeer log or syslog type (informational, errors, warnings, errors) exceeds a set threshold for the last 15 minutes.Multiple threading allows UltraLog3 to process caller ID events without disrupting the performance of HomeSeer.Error Try/Catch logic to ensure plug-in doesn't fail with an unhandled exception.Supports syslog triggers based on text or regular expression matches on syslog log events.Supports HomeSeer triggers based on text or regular expression matches on HomeSeer log events.
UltraLog3 can also listen for syslog events sent by Linux/Unix devices and supports similar features available for HomeSeer log events.When an event triggers, the UltraLog3 plug-in updates HomeSeer variables providing the ability for other scripts to access the log contents. The UltraLog3 plug-in adds a log trigger to HomeSeer that can be used to trigger a HomeSeer event based on the type or content of a log entry.The log data can be filtered for display purposes and the search results can be sorted and further searched to narrow down the log entries you are interested in. The UltraLog3 plug-in listens for HomeSeer events and inserts the log data into the database in real-time.The built in web interface allows you to query the data making it easier to turn your home automation log data into useful information. UltraLog3 is a HomeSeer HS3 plug-in that stores HomeSeer and syslog events to an underlying database in real-time. I do a backup to both when I'm going to all the trouble.)īottom line, yes, it can be frustrating to get the tool to talk to the Stick.Response time to a support request should be 96 hours or less excluding weekends an extra Nortek and an extra Aeon Z-Stick. (When I add 2-3 ZWave Devices I "backup" my Hubitat stick via Zensys Tools or OZWCP. It's rarely the same particular thing that "fixes it." that the stick isn't found and I have to do every arcane combo I can think of to get it to initialize properly. I removed the stick, heard the ba-dunk sound of a removed USB device and counted to 5 and stuck it back in.
#Homeseer update failed mac
(My windows is a virtual machine running on a Mac Mini) and I rebooted Windows, Zensys Tools wouldn't use the com port. The Com port shows correctly, but the tool refuses to initialize it. The first three times, Zensys Tools fails to find the stick. The tool isn't the same but the symptoms are. I doubt it's related but I just plugged the Nortek USB stick into a Windows system running Zensys Tools. That said, a couple of times after I upgraded I have had dimmers that just stop responding, even when pressing the paddle manually they just don't do anything and the only way to fix them is to use the air gap lever to restart it, so I'm much happier now but this new firmware still has some bug somewhere.
#Homeseer update failed upgrade
You then join the stick as a secondary controller to your hubitat Z-Wave network and begin upgrading.Īll my problems with the Leviton switches / dimmers were solved once I did this upgrade which was a god send, specially the fact that now when I manually use a matching remote on a 3-way setup the status gets quickly updated in the hub, this was not broken before. The alternative is to buy the USB stick, it does not need to be the HomeSeer one, you can use the Aeon one or the Zooz one (this one is cheap and claims to be the first stick to support S2 which may be good in the future if you want to use it for something else). The downside is your home automation will be down while you do this. My guess is this might "break" it, but that is who I am and I am willing to buy another HE stick or rejoin as needed.Īctually what you did is that easiest / fastest / cheapest way to go about it, it should not break or damage anything as long as you are careful and properly shut down Hubitat before removing the USB stick. Again this worked, but can I go back? The plan is to "remove from network" and put back in HE. I always have to push the envelope so I used the "add to existing" network feature to jump on the ST network and update some switches from there. From what I have read the Z wave network/device info is on the stick but automations and stuff are on the controller (again no expert just what I have absorbed).Īs for GE they are not listed, in fact the list is small, Technically I did not change any configuration so I am not sure it would, but an AM NOT a Zwave expert and this is totally "as-is" info. I don't have a ton of automation in HE yet, but from what I saw it didn't mind/know about the change. I put it back in, booted up HE, and I still had control of the devices via web UI.
