  1. I thought about something like this, but ISY is not on the same UPS (remote location) and will have no idea if the router is off or for how long. It is also possible the router would have power when the ISY does not. I need something independent.
  2. Hi, I need a switch that when initially powered on delays its output for 30 minutes. I have a situation where my Ubiquiti UDM SE switch doesn't like to be powered off for a short time. It never successfully reboots unless it is turned off for at least 20 minutes, but 30 is safe. I have it plugged into a UPS, but if the power comes back on shortly after UPS runs out of power, then the switch hangs with "taking a little longer" notice forever. The thought is to plug it into the switch described. I could build something, but off the shelf would be better. Ideas? I am planning to exchange the switch, but some logistical problems necessitate an alternate short-term solution. Paul
  3. Rebooted again. Didn't fix the problem for me.
  4. Me too! I checked the ISY portal and it was there but when I tried web access it said "error, Loading: /config/" Then I rebooted the ISY. It still is available in my local network, but it doesn't appear on the ISY portal. Paul
  5. Answer provided in another thread. It worked for me.
  6. Still offline as of 10:22 EST, so I guess it's not directly related to the Portal.
  7. Is this somehow related to the ISY Portal issue which now seems to be resolved? Paul
  8. I can call my son who lives 10 minutes away. Paul
  9. You could always put a cheap wireless camera in front of the panel and watch for motion with the sensitivity turned up. This has the benefit of giving you the status of all the breakers. I sort of use this method with a Zuba Central Heat Pump that I can't get a network thermostat for. Cheap camera looking at the thermostat so I can check it now and then when I'm away. Paul
  10. When I built a new house a few years ago I planned to buy some chrome audio devices and amps to power my ceiling speakers. Alas, chrome audio devices were discontinued and I ended up using a combination of regular chromes, hdmi to tv convertors and Aiyima A07 amps. This worked OK but volume control required access to the amp volume control knob. I've been watching for all in one solution, other than Sonos, which doesn't have a multiple user feature compatible with Google Home. This all changed recently with the release of the WiiM Amp which is a 60W per channel stereo amp with built in Chrome, among other apps. Check it out. https://shop.wiimhome.com/collections/frontpage/products/wiim-amp This thing is great and only $299. I bought one a few weeks ago and am totally impressed. So nice to have volume control! BTW I have no affiliation with Wiim. Paul

  11. I'm in an even more comical situation. Built a new house a few years ago just when Polisy was coming out. None were available so I bought an ISY. Then ISY stop supporting the latest version of nodeservers on a Raspberry Pi, so I bought a Polisy and installed some nodeservers (that would have run on the the RPi) with intention of moving the ISY to Polisy and updating the the new nodeserver version a short time later. Unfortunately a couple of the nodeservers I needed wern't yet ported so I never moved. Instead I started using Home Assistant on a Small PC and integrated with the ISY to get the functionality I wanted, with the intention of moving everything once the nodeservers were available. Well I never did move and found that only two of the five nodeservers were something I needed/used and one of the two I used went away - myQ. So I plan to move the one I use, envisalink, over to Home Assistant and turn off the Polisy. No point in moving to Eisy at this point. Besides it might be superseded before I have time to integrate. Is there a market for lightly used Polisy's?
  12. I also had a strange admin console problem. This fixed it.
  13. Thanks!!! It worked and the console loaded so much faster. You're a life saver. Paul
