Yes, they all are - i3, s9, and four m6's.

Roomba discovery not working on PG3x?
Discovery on initial startup isn't working, and I've tested on both an eisy and a polisy, both with PG3x, seeing the same log entries. Anybody run into anything similar? 2024-02-09 08:24:17,704 Thread-1 udi_interface INFO roomba-poly:start: Roomba node server starting 2024-02-09 08:24:17,772 MQTT udi_interface.interface INFO interface:_connect: MQTT Connected with result code 0 (Success) 2024-02-09 08:24:17,774 MQTT udi_interface.interface INFO interface:_connect: MQTT Subscribing to topic: udi/pg3/ns/clients/00:21:b9:02:60:46_24 - MID: 2 Result: 0 2024-02-09 08:24:17,818 MQTT udi_interface.interface INFO interface:_subscribe: MQTT Subscribed Succesfully for Message ID: 2 - QoS: (0,) 2024-02-09 08:24:17,893 MQTT udi_interface.interface INFO interface:_message: custom data response {'customparamsdoc': '<h3>Roomba robots are auto discovered</h3>\n\n<p>If no robots are configured when starting, the node server will start the discovery process.\nThis will look for Roomba devices on the network.

NVME WD Black Heatsink?
No, your Eisy came with a thermal pad to use the external case as a heatsink.

Any way to change "unchangeable" EISY ports?
So is mine, I used sudo

- Configuring eisy to boot from an NVMe SSD without losing VMs
sudo vm poweroff -f homeassistant And then backup everything in /storage, and you should be able to boot from the NVME and put everything back. Edit: doesn't seem the case, but this is BSD, I'm sure there's a method of doing it, you just may be restricted in storage space for the backup.- What to do with Polisy after upgrading to eisy?
I actually already have a headless Celeron based Nuc for that already. It's also a jump box for all sorts of network management, and it is indeed very handy. I'm not sure if a VNC connection would be nearly as effective as RDP though, if I could even get it running on Polisy.- IoX and i3 Insteon
@theitprofessor Just because they have field upgradeable firmware doesn't mean it will be frequent, or that it exists at all right now. in Z-Wave land, a few devices get a few firmware updates, but it's still fairly rare except for right after new chipset releases. Given the new company direction, if there were any updates I think we'd have heard of them by now in their periodic updates - and if they do occur, I hope UD has the time to add in that capability as well. If it does require a hub and it's an important update, I'll probably pick one up, join the devices to it for a firmware update, then just hit restore device in the AC once the firmware update is done.- IoX and i3 Insteon
@theitprofessor I wonder if just doing a device restore would you get to the same place for the dimmer, as IoX would re-write every setting to match what's in the database.- What to do with Polisy after upgrading to eisy?
Just what's on the label in the title. I upgraded to an eisy two weeks ago, and am now at the point where holding onto the Polisy as a backup to roll back to no longer makes sense. That being said, it's still a useful little box that sips power, so any creative ideas as to what to do with it? Either with UD's software on it, or somehow stripping the software off, or something else. Just trying to see if there's any options or ideas besides e-waste. The only idea I've had so far is to take the quite attractive aluminum case and use it to make a nifty enclosure of some sort, even if it's just a giant, oversized ZMatter enclosure.- HomeKit support
- Motion Sensor program inquiry
In that case, yeah, I'd use two programs. MS On fires your X10 On, MS Off fires your X10 Off. There are tons of other ways to do it, but I'd keep it simple.- Motion Sensor program inquiry
Youi don't need any programs - if the MS is sending both on and off, you just need a scene to handle it.- swapping hardware - want to re-use all my favorites with new h/w
If you transfer in the portal, that takes care of that part (at least it did for me). I also had my Eisy take over the IP of the Polisy, so I didn't need to change local programming.- Setting to monaural?
I actually have a couple commercially made combiners, I use one to tie in a subwoofer where I only have RCA stereo output, it's quite handy. But yeah, I was just going to remix any MP3's I want into mono if there's no setting. Mine is a Niles system, so similar idea, and I'll probably end up with a Russound system in the next couple of years since the Niles is about 8 years old and discontinued.- Setting to monaural?
Curious, is there the ability to set the audioplayer to Mono mode for output into an existing paging system, even if the source mp3 is stereo? I have other methods to achieve the end result I'd like, Mono audio isn't exactly high tech, but if there happens to be some buried setting, that seems much the simplest.- Use cases
For what it's worth, I'm going to use this to replace some general paging notifications. Another use would be front door greetings tied in with facial recognition - niche, but cool.- Replace Polisy with eISY after major crash of Polisy
This is exactly what I did the other day, worked flawlessly. If you're using PG3, you'll need to back that up as well, but restoring from backup was butter smooth.- Eisy discount for polisy
I ended up having my Polisy in service - originally for PG2/PG3 and later as an ISY994 replacement once IoX was a thing - since January of 2020, and just replaced it with the Eisy this morning. Four years of service, and I could have ran it for another year at least before EOL, if not longer, as being x86 and knowing how FreeBSD works it could probably run for much longer, perhaps without new features. That's not bad at all, IMHO.- Receive Email When Insteon Device Goes Offline?
I do both to be honest. Generally though, a GFCI trip is caused by a faulty GFCI. Newer ones are both more sensitive to actually ground faults, and have fewer nuisance trips. I've only had one go bad, but my brother has had a few dozen. If you're comfortable, usually it's easier to just replace, and if it keeps tripping then call the sparky.- Receive Email When Insteon Device Goes Offline?
Side note: the Honeywell T6 thermostat also has a power loss alarm, so I use that to detect my HVAC circuit. And I have enough that I can reliably detect a power loss leading to generator start.- Eisy discount for polisy
Bigger issue for us in the US is they're currently out of stock. Hopefully resolved soon! I've got a few to migrate.- Receive Email When Insteon Device Goes Offline?
The trouble with HA devices is that, by and large, they remain quiet and dormant except for a once a day heartbeat. You'll need to run a periodic query to see if a device is responding, and then have some error handling, it's not terribly pretty. I solved this with the new Zooz ZAC38. It doesn't solve per se a specific Insteon device offline, but it does have a small battery and fires an alarm when it loses power itself. I spread them around (and replaced a number of much older range extenders) and voila, I have circuit monitoring all over my house.- Portal IP for communicating with eisy?
It definitely doesn't use UPnP at all, because it works and my UPnP is shut off everywhere, so it's using a stateful connection (and I think some DNS-NAT trickery, though I don't know what the web side does).- Can Admin Console stay open on windows PC
Pretty much this. Runs great on a server with hard-wired connectivity to the Polisy that never sleeps - otherwise, just close it when done. - Configuring eisy to boot from an NVMe SSD without losing VMs
