My Premise instance is effed up. I obviously changed something in the past few weeks that has caused something bad.   Every 5 minutes or so my Builder connection would disconnect. Also there are no Events in Events.   I looked at the Windows Event Log on my server and PSMONITOR is restarting...

Is it possible to iterate over an object enumerating its properties?   I'm writing a script that will dump the contents of my security zones and to reduce the chance for transcription errors I want the script to generate the 'rows' with code (there are dozens of properties on a Caddx security...

I have a detached garage/workshop (the "Upper Garage"). I have long had it setup so that when I opened the doors the Occupancy module would cause the lights to turn on and the air compressor to power on.   I've had a stereo up there for a while in a cabinet. It's an old Marantz SR808 receiver...

I've finally figured out why JQM and other clients that use the premise web server (known internally within Premise as the WebClient) have such horrible behavior when they try to access files/resources that don't exist.    For example, notice how if a .gif or .png on the server is missing the...

Hey Premise lovers -    When I built my custom Windows Phone front end app for my Premise installation I did so using the REST like protocol that SYSConnector (the Premise ActiveX Control) uses. I got a little help from JImSpr in how this protocol worked and figured the rest out.   Last night...

Something weird is going on with Premise.   Actions are taking up to 4 *minutes* to propagate. For example when I open my garage door, the GDO sensor fires a script that turns on the lights. The lights take up to 4 minutes to turn on. If I connect to Builder and tickle things manually sometimes...

  My one physical home server machine is a (now ancient) monster rack mount box with 16 HDD drive bays. It has a quad Xenon CPU and 8GB of RAM.   It runs Windows Server 2008 R2. I use the built in Hyper-V to host several virtual machines. One is an instance of Windows Server 2008 R2 with 1 CPU...

After 12+ years of stable operation I'm suddenly experiencing problems with my digital IO subsystem in my house.   I have two separate digital I/O systems in the house. One is in my equipment room, the other in the upper garage.   Both are connected to Premise via Lantronix UDS-10 devices using...

I have a Custom Device communicating over TCP/IP via a "fake" Lantronix UDS10 (using the well known trick).   For some reason, these devices (the Custom Device) seems to ignore the "ManualAck" configuration setting.   The only way I can send multiple commands to the device is by either   1)...

FWIW, I finally put the source to my premise / crestron bridge online. https://github.com/tig/spkindel I still use it every day :-).

Thought y'all might enjoy this. I have installed an air compressor in the attic of my garage/workshop. Being in the attic means it's difficult to power it off when I'm not around & using it. So I used pump-start relays controlled by my ADICON RLY-8X digital IO boxes and use motion...

My fireplaces are controlled by a DigitalOutputEx. My keypads are Lutron HomeWorks; I have several keypad buttons that turn on the fireplaces. I used to have some home level objects setup using Commands to keep the state of the fireplace and the LED on the keypad buttons in sync. I also had...

I need to bind to HWI_Button.ForceLED (Lutron Homeworks driver). The driver does not have Bindable set for this property. I have my own Keypad Button class that has a LED property and it would be so simple to just change Bindable on the HWI_Button class than try to implement property...

My house uses a Lutron HomeWorks processor for lighting. I have interfaced it with my Premise system via RS-232. The Lutron RS-232 protocol works great two/way, but does not provide access to any of the metadata about the system (such as names of keypad buttons, loads, or scenes). The...

I have an OnChangeTemperature property change script on a temperature sensor for my equipment room. In it I want to do the following: Dim t As Sys.Schema.Units.Temperature t.Kelvin = sysevent.newVal if t.Farenheit >= 90 and t.Farenheit < 200 then ... Of course there's no Dim in VBScript so...

I want to create a new device called a Voltage Sensor. I am using an Adicon SECU8 for my analog input. It reads 0 to 5V. But in some cases I will REALLY be measuring much higher voltages and using an external circuit to scale down. ADI has ADI_InputAnalogEx as the type of it's inputs. There...

Running Premise on Windows Server 2008 R2 x64. Working fine. I had to poke a hole in the firewall for 3397 to get builder to work from a workstation. What port do I need to open to get builder to DISCOVER the server though? Thanks.

I want to detect generator status via digital inputs on my home control system. I have a Kohler generator with a Kohler G120 automatic transfer switch. I _COULD_ wire a relay into the 220V in the transfer switch to detect when the house is on generator power. HOWEVER, it really looks like my...

Ages ago I built a Crestron driver for Premise that lets me use Premise to control my Crestron system and vice-versa. It has proven to work very well for me. Let me know if you want it and I'll take the time to package it up...
