MrBill, Again thank you for your quick response and suggestions which I will try shortly and report back. I also appreciate your notes on posting screenshots...nothing like being a newbie!!!

I have a sump pump attached to a Insteon Outdoor plug-in module that I want to turn on/off only if the temperature is above 37 degrees. and within specific 30 minute time periods. I wrote two programs (attached). The first program (Sump1) says if temperature is above 37 degrees, run program Sump 2. Sump2 shows the times I want the pump to run. The issue is Generator Sump (that's the name of the Plug-in module) is turning on once the temperature is above 37 degrees but outside of the time parameters of Sump 2 although it seems to turn off at the end of a time period. Not sure I understand what is going wrong. I tried writing a single program with the if statement containing temp parameters followed by an AND for the first time parameter and OR for the remaining time parameters but that didn't work either. Suggestions would be more than appreciated

Yesterday we had a brief power outage and my ISY is now flashing the red (error) and green (memory) lights and I cannot connect to it via my home network or the portal. I have rebooted ISY twice, checked the connection to my router (only one solid green light) and checked the powerline Insteon interface unit (green light on) . Please help me with next steps to troubleshoot. Thank You

OK I got your update. I will try. Thank You Very Much and I learned a few things too.

I have a circulating pump that is connected to a sensitive N/C flow switch. The flow switch is connected to the Insteon 74551 I/O link. When the pump fails, the I/O triggers a program that sends me a message that I have a pump failure and to start the backup pump. All works fine except the flow switch is so sensitive, a small air bubble in the water or a power dip, the flow drops for a few seconds and triggers the I/O. This can happen three or four times a week. So I tried to write a few program that will wait 2 minutes before sending a notification but they just don't work well, too many false alarms....I just can't figure out the correct IF statements. Simply I'm trying to have a program that does nothing until it confirms there is constant trigger 2 minutes after the initial trigger. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is my effort at programs which clearly don't work: "Pump Failure": If CW Backup Pump Alert-sensor is ON, Then Wait 2 Minutes Run program "Pump Failure 2" (if) Else No Action "Pump Failure 2": If Program 'pump failure' is true Then Set 'CW backup Alarm ON (this is lamp link with red warning bulb) Send Notification to Brooke email content 'Cold Circ Pump Failure' Wait 10 minutes Send Notification to Brooke email content 'Cold Circ Pump Failure' Else No Action

I have a water flow switch that is NO (normally open) during water flow and NC (normally closed) when there is no water flow. Is there a device (Insteon, Z-Wave, or whatever) that integrates with my ISY that can be wired to this contact closure to signal On or OFF... so I can then write a program that emails me any change in status. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

I'm trying to get Isy to send me an email with the temperature reading from my Zwave Multisensor 6. I have no issue with the "If" portion of a program ( temperature >75 F) or the "then" (notify;default)) but I can't figure out how to customize the email to include the actual temperature (or other node reading like humidity) in the body of the email. I've been reading for hours and I can find anyone's program for that. Unfortunately, I'm a somewhat a novice on computer code writing, so would be very appreciative for some basic guidance on how to do this task.

That was a great suggestion as the same dimmer did not fire. I rebuilt the link in the scene and now everything works as it supposed to. Thank You

I have an Isy scene that triggers 6 different dimmers. That scene works fine with my Echo except for one Insteon dimmer. That specific dimmer won't turn on or turn off even if I repeat the Alexa command. I have double checked (in the administrative console) that that dimmer is part of the scene, and that scene works fine with dimmers that act as a controller for that scene. Is there some kind of limits on how the Echo or the Isy Portal handles elements of a scene? Suggestions would be appreciated.
