  1. Hello, I have had the ISY994I for years, but since everything is setup I don't connect to the console very often. But when I do need to connect I have to be honest I always have a h*** of a time connecting. Firefox and Edge won't connect to the ISY because Java is not enabled so that means I have to use Internet Explorer which we all know is going away. But that is even a pain. I just tried to connect and it asked me to install the Active X Control and then Windows blocked me from doing it because the address is intrusted. This is so frustrating every time I go in I run into this and then I forget how I got in the last time. Am I doing something wrong here? Please tell me there is a HTML 5 version that has eliminated the need for Java??? Am I doing it the old way and things have changed? Any help would be appreciated. Also can you post a link for a new user guide as I might be doing this an old way. Everything is still working though Thanks.

    Sounds easy enough. Thanks for the help.

    That makes sense. Yes I would rather not like to open ports on my router. I have security camera's that I don't view from the outside because I don't want to open the required ports. 2 questions if you don't mind. Do you have the link to the chirp, chirp thread on how to achieve this? Secondly, is there a forum post on new users and the ISY Portal? I looked and I can't believe that's not pinned at the top. Thanks.

    I do. This sounds like the way to go for me. I never signed up for the ISY Portal because to be honest the only instructions I have ever seen were on a YouTube video from like 2016. As matter of fact I just checked under the ISY Portal and the HowTo section and nothing is standing out on how to do the setup. I love the ISY, but I just wish there more how-to tutorials. What is amazing is there are very little YouTube videos on the ISY. I do better following videos No reason to re-invent the wheel when someone else has already done it. Anyway, I appreciate everyone's input and I'll look around to see how to get the ISY Portal up and running since I do think that would be the best way to alert me. Thanks.

    Thanks guys. Yes I have an Insteon Open Door Sensor with the ISY. I was concerned about the distance but the sensor is working at 130'. 150 is the max range for a sensor to the ISY correct? Good point about the flashing lights don't help when you're a sleep. Does Insteon make a siren? Unfortunately I don't have any floodlights out back. Any that you guys can recommend that can be used in an ISY program? I was thinking of getting something like the Guardline perimeter system which seems pretty nice. That bad thing is it's a stand alone system and doesn't have any integration with other systems. Thanks.

    I have a shed about 130' from my house that was recently broken into. I just added a door sensor to the shed door and setup an email alert when the door opens so I can hopefully flash a spotlight on them or something to make them run away before they take anything. The only problem is that I don't always look at my phone so I could easily miss it. What is the the recommended program for alerting on something like this? I also have a back door in my garage that I want to do the same thing. Do you flash the lights in the house on and off to alert? Are there any written programs for this? I mainly just have Insteon devices to work with here. Thanks
