Installing insteon and X10
« on: August 05, 2008, 05:26:45 am »
I started on installing my insteon / X10 installation using the 2412S PLM and varying insteon / X10 devices. First I used ddamron's tutorial and had to make judgement call:

 Adding a Code Group

        * Click 'Edit Ruby Codes' ( loads Edit Ruby Codes Popup)

            * In the field to the LEFT of 'Create new group', type in 'Insteon PLM'
            * click 'Create new group'

b4 is broken have to run sql manually to add new group close 'Edit Ruby codes' page. Look at 'Edit Device Template' popup page and note Device_Category and Manufacturer you will need to set them in sql code below

INSERT INTO InfraredGroup (FK_DeviceCategory,FK_Manufacturer,Description,FK_CommMethod,psc_id,psc_batch,psc_user,psc_frozen,psc_mod,psc_restrict) VALUES (Device_Category,Manufacturer,"Insteon PLM",2,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL);

run this sql and reload 'Edit Ruby codes' page and you should see 'Insteon PLM' in 'Uses Group/Codeset'

            * If the 'Uses Group/Codeset' does not change to 'Insteon PLM', repeat the previous 2 steps again.
            * Once the 'Uses Group/Codeset' says 'Insteon PLM' Check 'Discoverable Interfaces'
            * Check 'Ruby Internal Commands'
            * click Update

Well the "Insteon PLM" did show up correctly, so I didn't have to do the sql change. I'm not sure if this has any effect on the installation.

Then I continued on with the tutorial and tried out the 2412S PLM interface, using the follow log. I got three errors, two of which were from 141 & 161, which according to tschak shouldn't be used used with the interface (the interface wouldn't start). I decided to remove the code for both entries and I got what I think is a working system. See below:

The system seems to be sending out three requests for feedback then timing out (I only have a X10 WS467 light switch connected).

So I decided to test the system further, setup a X10 switch to turn off / on. I used the lights and setup a light switch manually for the X10 switch. Refer to the picture:

file:///home/linuxmce/Desktop/3.png

This doesn't seem to work, everytime I select off, I get this in the follow log:

It shows that it is sending out a command to turn off A2 but it doesn't. So at this point I'm stuck. Not sure what to do next. Any feed back would apprecaited.
Thanks

williammanda,
Did you have any luck in sending commands out?
I'm having a similar problem as far I can see.

I followed the wiki. exactly as you mentioned.
then quick reload  like 3 times until all devices where detected and when I try to send an on or off command from the web admin nothing happens.
 in the log only shows this: (at the exact moment that I send the command)
On command :
05   09/04/08 15:43:19.343      GSDMessageTranslator isCmdImplemented = false <0x42003950>
05   09/04/08 15:43:19.345      #### Pre-Process Queue = 1 <0x42003950>
05   09/04/08 15:43:19.358      _QueueProc Pre - 192 : 0 <0x40800950>
05   09/04/08 15:43:19.358      GSD-Sleep Pre 192 : 0 <0x40800950>
05   09/04/08 15:43:19.358      Process Queue = 1 <0x40800950>
05   09/04/08 15:43:19.498      GSD-Sleep Post 192 : 0 <0x40800950>
05   09/04/08 15:43:19.498      _QueueProc Post - 192 : 0 <0x40800950>
Off command :

05   09/04/08 15:43:37.816      GSDMessageTranslator isCmdImplemented = false <0x42003950>
05   09/04/08 15:43:37.820      #### Pre-Process Queue = 1 <0x42003950>
05   09/04/08 15:43:37.829      _QueueProc Pre - 193 : 0 <0x40800950>
05   09/04/08 15:43:37.829      GSD-Sleep Pre 193 : 0 <0x40800950>

05   09/04/08 15:43:37.929      _QueueProc Post - 193 : 0 <0x40800950>

My configuration is like this

PLM 2412s (connected to USB - Serial Adapter, I also tried connecting to a GC100 serial port)
2 switches (one 2876SB the other 2476S)
LMCE 7.10 RC2 AMD 64
Followed ddamron How to at http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Insteon_-_Setting_Up_PLM_Template
I tested the PLM and switches with a win program and they worked

If some one can give us some hints I'll appreciate it.

Thanks

Cesar

I don't have my logs with me, but mine is functioning exactly as williammanda's is.

What i have found is that sometimes it will find my lights switch, it will turn it on, then it will remove itself. I also get an error in code group 351 reading the database_delta.

I will add the logs tonight, as i am at work now, but i followed the Wiki through more than once and it just won't work for me.

what kind of switch are you using?
Did you link at least one device to the PLM?
Are the PLM and the devices on the same phase of your electrical circuit?

I'm using PLM 2412S and 3 insteon wall switches.

in one of my attempts I had a similar problem.
First I had no linked the plm and the devises. Non of the switches were recognized by the system.
Later when I link them (push the set button on the plm for 10 sec, led should blink, then push the top switch button until the PLM stop blinking) they were recognized by the system but every time I restart the router they disappear. The problem is that the first time the driver boots it looks for devices on the internal plm data base, when it boots again it tries to find the devises by ping them or something similar to a ping, if they are not found it tries to delete them from the data base. In my case I think it was caused by the poor communication between the PLM and the devises I solved by changing the electrical outlet that I was using (had to use a extension cord to put it as far as possible from the computer)
Once I chage the plm outlet the
Quote
(***):receive timeout=1
(***):receive timeout=2
(***):receive timeout=3
(***):Command Stalled!  resetting and retrying
desappear from the logs and the devices stay on the system

hope this helps you.
Let me know if you have any questions.

I don't have it accessible from work yet, should be in the next day or two and i am getting closer.

Last night i had it working properly, my lights worked and all was good. Then it removed my X10 lights.. then a few hours later it removed the rest of my lights. It seems when i add anything X10 it just removes everything.

Also it seems to get into a loop trying to delete the X10 device. Erroring out because it doesn't have 3 parameters. What do you enter for the port number for x10 devices? Just the device id correct? Like A5?

I did not link the PLM to the decive. i will try that tonight. and i will also try the extension cord thing, i thought about that before... does a PLM work plugged into an extension cord?

Ok...I didn't realize that the plm button had to be depressed. Also I will try the extention cord.
Also I'm using a serial to usb convertor. Did anyone change the setup for the plm to accommodate this? or does it matter?
Thanks

Did everyone follow this step in the setup instructions?

 Adding a Code Group

        * Click 'Edit Ruby Codes' ( loads Edit Ruby Codes Popup)

            * In the field to the LEFT of 'Create new group', type in 'Insteon PLM'
            * click 'Create new group'

b4 is broken have to run sql manually to add new group close 'Edit Ruby codes' page. Look at 'Edit Device Template' popup page and note Device_Category and Manufacturer you will need to set them in sql code below

INSERT INTO InfraredGroup (FK_DeviceCategory,FK_Manufacturer,Description,FK_CommMethod,psc_id,psc_batch,psc_user,psc_frozen,psc_mod,psc_restrict) VALUES (Device_Category,Manufacturer,"Insteon PLM",2,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL);

run this sql and reload 'Edit Ruby codes' page and you should see 'Insteon PLM' in 'Uses Group/Codeset'

            * If the 'Uses Group/Codeset' does not change to 'Insteon PLM', repeat the previous 2 steps again.
            * Once the 'Uses Group/Codeset' says 'Insteon PLM' Check 'Discoverable Interfaces'
            * Check 'Ruby Internal Commands'
            * click Update


When I did this:

            * In the field to the LEFT of 'Create new group', type in 'Insteon PLM'
            * click 'Create new group

The 'Uses Group/Codeset' said 'Insteon PLM' and I didn't edit the sql. Is this ok?
Thanks

I just tried something....I unplugged the AC from the PLM and the follow log still keeps giving me the same data as I posted earlier....is this normal? Or is this a possible problem of communication with the X10 light switch?
Thanks

i would like to point out that the X10 light never turned on. I have 2 Insteon switches that work A.O.K now that i moved the PLM to a different power node.

Bump...

SO insteon lights work 100% now.

X10 lights work until a reload and then they remove themselves from LinuxMCE.

I am thinking of adding my firecracker and using bottle rocket for the X10 stuff, and that will solve my issue i think.. anyways.. if anyone can help me get X10 working through my PLM that would be great.

I got a few Insteon light switches 2466DW. I went back through and deleted my X10 light switches and changed the "COM Port on PC" to pciXXXXX. I the follow log posted this:

Then to double check I changed the "COM Port on PC" back to /dev/ttyS0 and I got this same as before, wasn't communicating. I then changed the "COM Port on PC" back to the pci setting and I get this on the follow log:

 (***):Command Stalled!  resetting and retrying

JQE what do you have in your setup for the "COM Port on PC"? Also please post as much info about how you got Insteon to work.
Would it be possible to link up in the forum Linuxmce, and go over the settings?
Thanks

Sorry i haven't been around things are nuts around here.

SO for my linuxmce Insteon setup i have a PLM hooked up with an extension cord to a power outlet. I have 1 insteon light switch linked to it.

I only have 2 lights switches.

I found once i got the system to boot up and run without errors i added the lights in manually, watched the logs until it ends and reports the child devices then restart the router.

I kept doing this until all my switches were in and had configuration showing.

The other key is if you are showing a lot of time outs then unplug your PLM from the wall and plug it back in then reboot the core (not restart) then it seems to work.

I still can't get X10 to work though, as i have only 1 serial port. So i am going to try to put my X10 firecracker on my media director and see if that works.
