  1. Upgraded mine to 5.6.0 no issues. Had to restart PG3 in web interface, not sure why that cannot be done automatically as part of the upgrade. No issues, did not do the PG3x conversion prior because did not know anything about it (and am glad I didn't ).
  2. OTA is hit and miss on other platforms too... eg. with Home Assistant it is not reliable so best to use a PC. Note that with IoX you have to change all automations/programs after excluding/including because the way IoX uses node ID's to reference in programs etc.
  3. I think question is asking if IoX with Matter support will act like a Matter bridge and present all devices to the matter network. Then homekit may be able to see these as matter devices and supported in homekit. I think matter bridges are meant more as a way for end device manufacturers so they don’t have to add Matter support to each individual device eg Philips hue. However it is possible this may be case with IoX still and bridge devices.
  4. Just use Home Assistant with ISY and HomeKit integration, it works great... probably better than if they had native support because of Apple's restrictions... https://community.hubitat.com/t/locks/107493 I just updated all my devices (iOS/iPadOS 16.4, MacOS, TVOS 16.4, Apple Watch), and works fine with the new HomeKit Architecture.
  5. They should use ZFS and snapshot before each upgrade, if something goes wrong then can easily revert back. Since this is in EISY forum, what about Polisy also?

    I also have similar issue, many Insteon switches with more settings cannot see all the settings using my MacBook Pro screen. Here is example of a regular size window in Win11 and cannot see everything at bottom, I have to maximize to 1920x1080 screen to be able to see it all... I see no reason why they cannot use multiple rows, there is lots of wasted vertical space not being used.
  7. Is this reboot EISY only? I have a Polisy and it did not reboot and everything is working normally. Just wondering since it didn't reboot was the update unsuccessful for me?
  8. When including, are there different options like S0, S2 authenticate etc? Can you un-select S2?
  9. I am being optimistic
  10. There is discussion in the 5.5.9 support thread about limited support for i3. Not specific to the i3 paddle however. I suspect they will fix once they get the docs from Insteon.

    You posting this gave me an idea... would be possible to use a Stream Deck as a super-charged KeypadLinc and run Automations off it. Sure enough... https://github.com/cgiesche/streamdeck-homeassistant. I think I will order one and run off a small PC or something... can hang it all off the wall, Wife would love

    Yes, I watch a few HA Youtube channels and am starting to become envious of all the Zigbee options available, and in fact am more interested/excited about Zigbee now than Matter However there are issues with Zigbee (And Thread/Matter too) being in 2.4Ghz and interference that could alter my experience if I actually used. When (if?) I get my skyconnect USB for HA, I'll pickup a Zigbee device to experiment with.
  13. brians replied to brians's topic in ZMatter
    I understand that Thread RF protocol is based off Zigbee, but there are differences . Matter runs on Ethernet (WiFi, wired LAN), and Thread. A Thread border router is used to communicate between these two different networks. From what I am reading, I get the impression that it should be possible to have an EISY, Polisy (anything running IoX) see Thread based matter devices without a ZMatter board, as long as you have a Thread border router of some sort... eg. my Apple Homepod Mini should allow this. I guess we will find out soon hopefully.
  14. brians replied to brians's topic in ZMatter
    Oh ok, I am sure I seen somewhere way back that there was a possibility of enabling zigbee in meantime, while waiting for thread/matter firmware to get finalized.
  15. brians posted a topic in ZMatter
    I realize Thread/Matter support is coming sometime after March 2023, however there was mention about enabling Zibgee. I notice there are lots more Zigbee alternatives (and cheaper too) for Zigbee things like motion sensors, wall switches etc. than ZWave.
  16. Note that when setting parameter 2/3 to 11 on ZMatter, it does not show as Barrier and Open or Closed like it did before on old ZWave. Instead it is shown as a Binary Door/Windows Sensor with On or Off. I used to have on Polisy with ZooZ USB and it did in fact show Open/Closed before as you said, but I noticed that it does not with ZMatter. Not really a big deal as long as it works I supposed.

    I am in central BC and did not update time correctly, still an hour behind. Edit: After fiddling with it for a while, changing location other than my custom one, couple Polisy reboots due to IoX crashing etc. I got it working. Seems unnecessary for a simple DST update.
  18. brians replied to farcouet's topic in eisy
    I had homebridge working on polisy but I used a different version since one that op posted had a lot of features removed like zwave support. Use port 8080 not 8443. Home assistant does a way better job for HomeKit with iox. I have been using it for a couple weeks and got rid of homebridge isy.

  20. Oh ok, so no change really from before. I will hold off ordering one then, I was interested in the i3 dial but don't really need at this time.
  21. Everything is working, had to clear java cache. Good thing Java didn't really take off and we are not running many java apps.... would suck to have to re-install ALL java applets each time clearing cache so IoX launcher works
  22. Ooh, doing now Very excited about new i3 support!
  23. brians replied to sjenkins's topic in UD Mobile
    Actually that is a good idea. Not sure how to add multiple users though, @Javiis there support for multiple accounts on UD Mobile? I think I sorta asked this for different reason a while back. I don't want other users to have access to everything in UD Mobile, just favorites.
  24. Thanks I have played with this method already just wondering if there was an easier way that I didn’t know about.

    I set it up on iOS and make a couple programs to notify me when I leave and when I arrive at home. Seems to work but sometimes I get more than one notification. I have the zone set to default 200m. It is neat, but not really sure what I would use this for.
