Indigo 6 Beta 12 Released

6.0 Beta 12 is now available for download.

Important: this version includes some Z-Wave related enhancements. Because of the nature of some of these changes, you might have to re-sync (via the device dialog) some of your modules. The devices that need to be re-synced will be shown in the Event Log, and communication with them will be disabled in Indigo until they are re-synced.

In addition to the major 6.0 improvements this update includes:

  • Added Z-Wave support for Aeotec Home Energy Monitor (G2 model, DSB28).
  • Added Z-Wave support for Aeotec Micro Switch module (DSC26103).
  • Added option in Device Settings dialog to suppress logging for Z-Wave multi-sensors, temperature sensors, thermostats, and whole house energy monitors.
  • Fixed bug that could randomly crash plugins that used the x10CommandReceived, x10CommandSent, insteonCommandReceived, insteonCommandSent callbacks.
  • Fixed bug that caused the default action on a control page element to get lost and/or incorrectly set.
  • Fixed bug that could, after swiching action plugin types, cause bogus device delete dependency warnings.
  • Fixed a bug that could cause the z-order of control page elements to get reversed when copied and pasted into a different control page.
  • Improved Z-Wave support for Aeotec Micro Smart Energy modules (Switch DSC18103 and Illuminator DSC19103).
  • Improved Z-Wave compatibility with Cooper Accessory Switch (RF9542).
  • Improved error logging and UI updates if a plugin crashes.
  • Improved robustness of all plugins by adding automatic relaunching upon plugin crashes.
  • Improved actions panel UI by consolidating all device action types into the main type popup menu.
  • Virtual Devices Interface: Fixed bug that would cause virtual devices with non-ASCII character names to fail.
  • Virtual Devices Interface: Fixed typo in the Virtual On/Off Device config dialog.

Developer API Changes:

  • Plugin API version number has been incremented to v1.11.
  • Plugin API change: Changed the name of the sprinkler device property activeZone to activeZoneIndex to reduce confusion with the activeZone state. See the API release notes for details.
  • Plugin API removal: Removed energy meter attributes (energyInputCount, energyInputs, accumEnergyTotals, accumEnergyBaseTimes, accumEnergyTimeDeltas) from the sensor device object, and the resetAccumEnergyTotals() method from the indigo.sensor commmand space. They no longer exist at the sensor device level, so scripts and plugins should call the newer methods on the base device object instead (see next item). See the API release notes for details..
  • Plugin API addition: Added energy meter attributes (energyCurLevel, energyAccumTotal, energyAccumBaseTime, energyAccumTimeDelta) to the base device object, and the reset method resetEnergyAccumTotal() to the indigo.device command space.
  • Plugin API addition: Added actionControlGeneral action callback, GeneralDeviceAction action class and indigo.kDeviceGeneralAction enumeration for handling generic device actions such as status request, energy meter reading, energy usage resetting, beep request, etc.
  • Plugin API addition: New substituteDeviceState() and substitute() methods to complement substituteVariable(). See the release notes for details.
  • Plugin API renamed: Renamed indigo.kDeviceAction enumeration to indigo.kDimmerRelayAction. The previous enumeration still exists for backwards compatibility but should no longer be used.
