Thank You! Problem Solved!

I recently swapped out an older ISY994i with a newer ISY994i ZW+ IR PRO. The X10 functionality seems to be different with this ISY. If I want to name my older X10 devices the WIKI help says I need to purchase the Enhanced A10/X10 Firmware module. When I click on Help/Purchase Modules, it takes me to a UD "Page Not Found" page. I am at version 5.0.15A. Can anyone help?

Thank you so much. I’m not at that location now, but if memory serves, it is a Marathon generator. I’ll be up there later this week. I know there are voltage regulators that can be bought for these. Won’t solve the frequency issues though.

I really appreciate your help. This is a 15 kw genset. Where would you start? I’d rather not have to scrap the genset, all the stored fuel, etc. I’ve got it as EMP protected as I can. It’s a durable system that’ll run for the long haul in a rural location. I’m an engineer. Mechanical many moons ago lol. But I’m pretty computer savvy. Thanks for any insight you can give. I’m using more and more insteon. It’s easy to program, and it works (when connected to the grid) was thinking a battery bank, with an inverter. Just use the genny to charge the batteries. That’s a lot of expense too.

Amazon sells this power conditioner: Satic Power Perfect Box - Whole Home Dirty Electricity Filter, Surge Protector and Cost Saver! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07K3XH5PJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_7S91G54FVAWEKY1JNSB2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 Any thoughts?

I was thinking about getting an oscilloscope. That’d at least show the waveform and any noise.

This is a mechanical genset. I built it years ago by marrying an Isuzu diesel forklift motor to a generator. it is speed governed, but I’m already guessing that’s not good enough now. it was fine years ago, but I just now test ran it with the insteon system. when powered by the generator, the insteon dimmers have their indicator lights flash sporadically, and the system doesn’t communicate. is there some kind of filtration / power conditioner that can be added?

I’ve just installed an isy 994i in my vacation home. This home has been around for many years, and I have had insteon systems in place at other homes. I test ran the whole house generator for the first time since installing various insteon devices and the isy, and all the keypads did not respond properly. I’ve never had problems with this generator over the years. What could be happening? Im suspecting dirty power or a ground issue. Any help would be appreciated.
