Anyone using EVL-3 sucessfully with a Vera 3 UI5 or UI7, if so how much functionality is there?

I have it setup with a Honeywell Vista Panel and using the Vera Lite with the EVL-3 plugin. It works well, turns all my Honeywell wired and wireless sensors into Vera sensors that then can be used with scenes. One thing you cant seem to do is actually arm or disarm the honeywell panel when using Vera Modes (UI7) or geofencing. I'd like to be able to create a scene that locks my doors, set down the thermostats, sets the correct lighting and arm my alarm system. I can do everything except the alarm system arming, which I have to do manually via Vera for now. Just seems like this should be an easy do and a feature many would want.

I been using it with the veralite, I can control just about everything with vera except for programming, that you can do that through eyezon. You can create scene using the alarm sensors though vera. I have mine setup when I'm in away mode if any sensor is trip vera will. Alert me regardless If the actual alarm is arm or not, there is a lot you can do. It's just a learning experience. I'm using it with ui7 and dsc alarm.

Yes- you need to be techie (coming from a guy who loves to tinker) - Vera keeps on pushing updates, which breaks things (and fixes few). After working for 6 months, it suddenly stopped working with IE (but connects with Chrome). If you stay with UI Rev 6, then Apps will not work. Rather than keep on rambling, I would say that if you like to spend weekends fixing things around your home, this is the unit. If you like to set and forget, then this is not your system

I have Z-wave running under Vera-3, I use this with the Vera system. I also have Comcast home which I think runs off Wifi so I do not believe that this switch is compatible with Comcast.

They're not real-time like on an ATMega. Except for pins 2 and 3, the max speed for I/O is about 230Hz. Existing sketches should work, unless they use AVR specific libraries.

I chose the Vera3 because it is wifi enabled. The veralite has to be connected to your existing wifi.So far the Vera3 has worked perfectly. I don't think you can go wrong with either, but having the option to not use an existing wifi connection gives you a little more freedom.

As with the other respondent I have never used the app you are asking about but I have used it with both Rev, Rev Lite, & Dash Commander and haven't had a problem. It seems to work pretty well with anything that provides a general ELM interface. I have most of my settings to default although I did have to setup the connection as far as IP and such the first time and I believe I gave those settings in my actual product review, if not let me know and I'll look an see what they were and pass them along.

Vera3 doesn't need a hard wired Ethernet connection to be able to control door locks or lighting modules. It has its own WiFi capability in order for you to connect to it via a cell phone, computer, etc.

Issac, I own the 3.0v and requires installation on IBM or compatible PC's. I'd search for their website and email them your question. They're very fast at responding.

I was able to connect and configure it successfully to the Vera. It took a lot of persistence but it does work to control scenes and devices. The biggest "revelation" came when I learned that each button had to be set-up as a "trigger" instead of a controller.-- I never added any single devices to this controller, rather assigned them from the Vera.

I made it work with milestone systems. It's onvif compliant, so any system that supports onvif should work.

I installed two of these sensors with my Vera Lite and they work very well. Vera can remotely arm or bypass. Vera can send notifications on trigger events (for instance if opened or closed) or low battery condition. Recommended for Vera Lite.

I am using it with VERA LITE UI5. Can't help with this staples hub, sorry. But I believe it would. It's been in the market for years, just getting upgrades in the firmware version, which by the way, sits on a 1.6H.

All the previous answers are correct. Essentially, the Vera is connected to your router by hard wire and it communicates to all the devices it controls wirelessly. Good luck.

Not on the Vera 3 with a MiCasa Verde account. But I could never get it to work with Vera. It would trip day and night and Vera could not control it to go into bypass in daylight.

I don't know Vera but if its like any Z-Wave controller (I have HomeSeer) you can create an event or manually turn the outlet on & off. For any typical device I would put about a 1 or 2 second delay in the toggle that the device fully shuts down.

I use a vera with my camera and I record via that. You can also record to your computer directly

I got screwed on this product myself. It will eventually pair with a Vera but won't control scenes. :(
