Logmodule name even when Comm Enable is not checked

If you have a feature you'd like to see in Indigo, post it here. Others can refine the idea if they like. Please keep each topic to one feature or a closely related set of features and don't add other unrelated requests to an existing topic. Use the Hardware Support Requests forum below to request support for some bit of hardware - but be sure to check the 3rd Party Plugins Forum first though to make sure there isn't already a plugin for it.

Logmodule name even when Comm Enable is not checked

Post by NOVAmike »

I've written triggers to send me an email when I get instant-off-button-10 events from any Insteon device. The remotes send those when their batteries are low. But I also disable comms (uncheck) for remotes so Indigo skips them when syncing as they are usually asleep and that makes syncing take forever.

But there seems to be a misfeature in how these events are logged. If Comms are enabled for the device, I get this in the log:

Code: Select all

Mar 28, 2023 at 4:51:24 AM
  Received INSTEON                "Guest Room Remote" off (instant) (button 10)
  Trigger                         Low Battery Notification
But if Comms are disabled (unchecked) the same event is logged this way:

Code: Select all

Mar 27, 2023 at 8:18:46 PM
  Received INSTEON                54.B9.99 off (instant) (button 10)
  Trigger                         Low Battery Notification
I can't imagine there's any real reason you can't do the address -> name lookup with comms disabled since the name is in the local database, right?

Thanks for considering!
