Indigo 6 Beta 8 Released

6.0 Beta 8 is now available for download.

Important: this version includes many 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 specific Trigger types for relay, dimmer, on/off sensor, value sensor, and scene controller modules.
  • Added Z-Wave support for Aeotec Minimote (DSA03202x), Key Fob (DSA22), and Door/Window Sensor G2 (DSB29).
  • Added Z-Wave support for Everspring Flood Sensor (ST812).
  • Added Z-Wave support for Cooper Accessory Switch (RF9542), Relay Switch (RF9501), and Lamp Module (RFLDM).
  • Added Z-Wave support for Express Controls EZMotion Multi Sensors (HSM100-S1, HSM100-S2).
  • Added Z-Wave support for Fibaro Dimmer Switch (FGD211), Relay Switches (FGS211, FGS221), Shutter Controller (FGR221), Universal Sensor (FGBS321), Door/Window Sensor (FGK101), and Wall Plug Relay (FGWP011).
  • Added Z-Wave option to remove failed modules from controller.
  • Added ability to use python "with" blocks within Indigo scripts.
  • Added Match Brightness action on the Device Actions menu which allows the user to select a source device to get the brightness value from and a list of devices to set to that brightness.
  • Improved INSTEON Smoke Bridge support. Device ON/OFF state will now be set based on received smoke and carbon monoxide alerts.
  • Improved INSTEON Thermostat (2441TH, 2441ZTH) support to track the ON/OFF states of the humidifier and dehumidifers.
  • Improved reliability of device state changes refreshing for some plugins.
  • Fixed bug that caused the Notes edit field in the Device dialog to fail to update which switching between device panels.
  • All Plugins: improved some dialog UI layouts. Also added a Toggle Debugging menu item to all built-in plugins that will toggle on/off debugging information in the event log.
  • Airfoil Plugin: improved error handling if user tries to restore a source that hasn't been saved yet.
  • Airfoil Plugin: improved some error handling that could cause stack traces to be shown in the event log.
  • Timers and Pesters Plugin: added Create Pester... and Manage Pesters... menu items in the plugin menu to help manage pesters. Also fixed some bugs around setting the start values of timers and scripting the actions.
  • Device Collection Plugin: added some more specific error handling.
  • Action Collection Plugin: this plugin is now more directly integrated into Indigo -- it no longer shows up on the plugins menu. The Email Log... menu item has been moved to the Help menu as that's the most common use for it (getting Help). The action is still available on the Server Actions->Log Actions menu.

    Developer API Changes:
    • Plugin API version number has been incremented to v1.7.
    • Plugin API addition: added indigo.server.apiVersion property which returns the Indigo Server's current plugin API version as a string.
    • Plugin API addition: added dehumidifierIsOn and humidifierIsOn attributes to the thermostat device class. These attributes are set to True for some thermostats (2441TH, 2441ZTH) when their humidity setpoints are crossed to turn ON/OFF dehumidifiers and humidifiers.
    • Plugin API addition: added updateTimeStampOnServer() method to device instances to increment last changed timestamp on a device.
    • Plugin API bug fix: fixed bug that caused equivalence compare of indigo.List() objects to always return False.
    • Plugin API bug fix: added better error handling of plugins that try to use None values in dynamic menu/lists.
