Folks,

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/241 ... 20%231.zip

Here's a pre-release version of Survey v2.

This is the version that will actually actively ping the Insteon Devices, and give you feedback on the devices.

Here's what I need, feedback on how to improve the reporting, and any changes or suggestions on what you believe will help make this better.

the links at the beginning to the individual reports point to files in --- ~Documents/surveys/datexxx/ --- do not exist -- only the one total report is there, no individual reports.

The links within the reports work, they just jump up to the beginning of that device.


thanks

Karl

Thanks Karl. I will fix that, but chances are those links will be removed & replaced in some manner.

I only have 27 Insteon devices, so my report isn't that huge, but I've seen one report (90-odd devices, 20 passes) take over 110+ pages. So I have to figure out a more compact, and useful manner of reporting.

as for report:

do a simple listing with some +----+----+---> display for the average or max response time

that should be one line per device

Code: Select all
dev name   av resp | max resp | xxx  | yyy | graph of ave response time
dimmer 1     0.01  |   0.0002 | 0.5  |  1.2|  +----+----+-->
dimmer 2     0.31  |   0.0002 | 0.05 |  0.5|  +---+-->

(those columns should align )

I have a similar idea in the works, but one issue I have right now, is that I need to firm up my estimates for each hop.

Right now, I am using 100 ms per hop.

Does everyone think that seems accurate? I'm tempted to move it up to each 125 ms or 150 ms.

Survey v2 Pre-Release #2

Okay, Pre-Release #2 of the Survey utility is available.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/241 ... 20%232.zip

I have completely rewritten the reporting code.

The search box will work on *ALL* the fields in the table, so you can restrict the table to view only the Switchlincs, by simply typing "Switchlinc" into the search box. Or alternatively, the name or Insteon Address of the device.

Feedback is quite welcome.

NICE!!! especially the sort! would still add the simple +----+----+---> graph and remove one of the links as they do the same for each device (more details and the device name)

The version number is the same (1.99) . Had do do some manual copying.. double click on plugin does not work..

thanks a lot for this.

Karl,

I have found some issues in Pre-Release #2, but I am releasing the full version today. See the forum posting.

That being said, here's the changes.

Each device in the Overview has a Ping Reliability Percentage, and what I am calling a "Hop Heat Map". This is similar to your "graph" bar.

This Hop Heat Map, has "two" symbols.

Astericks - Successful Ping
Dashes - Failed Ping

Sadly, The board doesn't allow me to stack color commands... :? So I can't reproduce it here.

The symbols are color coded, basically blue fading into red. The more red the symbol is the larger the latency is on that ping. So the heat map has a symbol corresponding to each attempted ping.

I think that will give the ability to "instantly" check each device, without opening the subpage for each device.

In addition, I have placed the devices sub reports into their own shared directory.

So that being said, I am going to make a general release folder for the survey plugin, and post the update there.
