Disable interface via action or script

Hi,

I'm curious if/how I can disable/enable my INSTEON interface (2413U) from a script (python or applescript) or an action from a trigger or schedule.

I'm running Indigo 6 on an older Mac with OS 10.6 and I find that the 2413U has trouble recovering from a power failure. However, I have discovered that disabling the interface soon after the Mac detects it's running on UPS then enabling the interface once power is restored solves the problem. I'd like to do this automatically rather than manually from the Indigo GUI.

I have a software tool that will execute a script when a switch to/from UPS is detected but I haven't found how to script disabling/enabling of the interface in Indigo.

Cheers,

This is one of those cases where AppleScript is required (we'll have that fixed for 7.2). To disable the Insteon interface:

Code: Select all

tell application "IndigoServer"
   set online to false
end tell

To enable it:

Code: Select all

tell application "IndigoServer"
   set online to true
end tell
