We received this question from a customer, and thought others might be interested in this topic... How do I program a security mode in HomeWorks QS?

RE: Security mode

We have a security mode in HWQS?

Originally Posted by KPhillips We have a security mode in HWQS? You can set up a sequence to flash lights or to turn them on to a specific level for a specified amount of time. You can even lock out keypads if you desire. There is a How-to video on the HomeWorks Resource site under Education->Online Training-> HWQS. There is also a sample project that you can download and view in the Homeworks QS software.

Sorry if this is a "necropost" but it's still relevant This is exactly the question I have just asked support directly - looks like it is the case. Security mode on HWI is literally a 5 minute job - on HWQS with 50kps, say 400 buttons and allowing 1-5 mins per button (no copy/paste - I think everything has to be re-entered manually, inc conditionals) - that works out at anything from 1 to 5 days With new jobs I am pre-assigning the variable as I go, so I won't have to go back, but if it's already programmed....

At this time, this is how the Homeworks QS system is built to operate. Thank you for the feedback and we will forward this to our engineers for consideration of future releases.

I recently did the suggested sequence for a client, but I'd love to know if I can toggle back to the last known state from a 'security mode', whether sequenced or a one-shot scene. Is this possible Lutron guys???

Unfortunately the HomeWorks QS system will not be able to save the last state of a zone and revert to it after the sequence. We would recommend having the lights go to a specific level on the termination step of that sequence. Thank you for this feedback, we will be glad to pass it along to our development team.

I recently ran into another application for retrieving "last known scene" - Lutron support were kind enough to suggest a workaround, but it wasn't ideal The application was simple - outdoor wall lights - brought to a level at dusk by timeclock, raised on movement temporarily (approaching door etc.) and then returned to previous level "Previous level" would be the programmed previous level - set by the sequence - but not by the timeclock (in other words level is set in two places and should really match) - and if the customer altered the level manualyl, again, the movement sequence would simply restore to the level in the sequence A "get level" feature would allow the sequence to put the zone back to whatever it was ... this could be handled with a 3rd party control system but that isn't very satisfactory imo.

Dealing with this right now. I want a security mode that reverts to one scene if "day" and another if "night". I think it works with if then conditional and 2 sequences that trigger 2 different scenes, but I can't stop the sequence with a button press if the sequence is built into a scene. I must be missing something obvious...

If you want to turn off the lights in the same button, the first line of the conditional should read: - If sequence 1 is running Or If sequence 2 is running Then Stop Sequence 1 Stop Sequence 2 If you want to shut off the sequences from a separate button, just have it as a single option to "Stop Sequence" for both of them.

Russia's Nuclear Deterrent Command Center Imperiled by Winter Freeze—Report

A Russian nuclear deterrent command center in Moscow has been imperiled by power outages that have impacted more than one-quarter of the region's cities amid freezing temperatures, a Russian Telegram channel has reported.

The VChK-OGPU outlet, which purports to have inside information from Russian security forces, reported that the 820th Main Center for Missile Attack Warnings—part of the Russian Space Forces, a branch of the country's Aerospace Forces—near Solnechnogorsk in Moscow is without power.

It serves as the space forces early warning network against potential ballistic missile attacks.

The development comes as Russians are reported to be suffering from power outages in their homes in the Moscow region caused by technical issues at plants amid subzero temperatures.

On January 4, a heating main burst at the Klimovsk Specialized Ammunition Plant in the town of Podolsk, which is about 30 miles south of central Moscow. Since then, tens of thousands of Russians are reported to have no heating in their homes.

Affected areas include the cities of Khimki, Balashikha, Lobnya, Lyubertsy, Podolsk, Chekhov and Naro-Fominsk, a map published by a Russian Telegram channel and shared on other social media sites shows.

Other Russian media outlets reported that in Moscow, residents of Balashikha, Elektrostal, Solnechnogorsk, Dmitrov, Domodedovo, Troitsk, Taldom, Orekhovo-Zuyevo, Krasnogorsk, Pushkino, Ramenskoye, Voskresensk, Losino-Petrovsky and Selyatino are also without power.

The Telegram channel said that at the 820th Main Center for Missile Attack Warnings, "the crew...is on duty around the clock."

"It is here that the decision on a retaliatory nuclear strike is executed," the channel said.

Newsweek could not independently verify the report and has reached out to the Russian Defense Ministry by email for comment.

Power outages have also been reported in Russia's second-largest city, St. Petersburg, in the country's western Voronezh region, in the southwest city of Volgograd, and in Rostov, which borders Ukraine, a country that Russia has been at war with since February 24, 2022.

On Sunday, two shopping malls in St. Petersburg were forced to close because of problems with light and heating, reported local news outlet 78.ru. Hundreds of other homes in the city have had no electricity, water or heating for days amid temperatures of -25 C (-13 F).

Russian authorities have also been forced to compensate passengers of a train that ran from Samara to St. Petersburg (a 20-hour journey) without heating during -30 C (-22 F) temperatures. Videos circulating on social media showed carriage windows frozen over. A passenger also said the toilet didn't work during the trip because of frozen pipes.
