  1. You can try removing all devices from alexa and rediscovering, by going to alexa.amazon.com, sign into your account, go to smarthome on left menu, go to devices, scroll to the very bottomand there is an option to forget all devices. Wait a minute or 2 and rediscover devices. This may help, not sure if this is what you refer to as removing devices above.
  2. Is anyone using the below sensor, if so did you have any difficulty getting it to register open/closed? It installed just fine but does not seem to change states. I removed and reinstalled twice with same out come. There is a enbrighten zwave outlet around 10 ft from it. I healed zwave after install. It has been online for about a week, but has not seemed to work yet. There are about 15 zwave devices in the system and never had any problems before. So, was trying to decide if this defective or if I missed something? https://www.amazon.com/GE-Wireless-Attaches-Existing-32563/dp/B01KQDIUAW/ref=asc_df_B01KQDIUAW/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=228882292492&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=7164489630807176233&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9014246&hvtargid=pla-393015477288&psc=1
  3. I was curious if any of you have youtube channels showing off your systems, how you integrated products, etc.? There seems to be a lot on SmartThings, Home assistant and so forth, but I have found very little on ISY or insteon other than a few instructionable and very basic videos. Just curious to see what some have achieved and how they got there or did it.
  4. Couldn't you just leave the current scene, then have a program that if status of light is on then wait 5 mins and turn off?
  5. interested
  6. Excuse me for asking, but not sure by the way you have it stated. Is you scene called 50% if so the spoken may be confusing Alexa, if not sorry for the inquiry

    PGC Ring updated?

    I noticed in PGC Store that the Ring NS is now version 1.1.3 vs the 1.1.0 that I have installed How do I upgrade to the newest version? Do I delete current and install newest or just install newest? I tried just stopping and restarting NS but that did not show any version upgrade happened.
  8. Consider it a Chicken Tracker instead, study their feeding and migration patterns.. Can you turn the sensitivity down in AC settings or change mounting height lower and angle up?
  9. You mentioned a Door. Could you not use an open close or hidden door sensor?
  10. I tried the voice recognition, it does nothing for differentiating commands from different people. Most I have had it do is now and then address me by my name when responding to a command, i.e. OK, Have a nice day Tom. I am sure way down the road they have some AI ideas for it, but as of now its not a big deal. Naming in the bedroom I try to keep devices that are on my side named Toms Light, Toms Lamp, etc. My wife's side Barbi's Ligh,t Barbis Lamp etc. Shared items Our Light, is bedroom ceiling fan light, Our fan is bedroom ceiling fan, Our TV is bedroom tv etc. Lighting in Living room is End Table, Sofa Table, Floor Lamp, etc. Tried to make it simple and the wife uses it fairly well, without much trouble or complaining.
  11. IIRC, alexa only activates THEN and ELSE clauses. On for THEN, Off for ELSE. I would guess it is turning on the fan as te spoke for the fan, but is not actually running the program. THere is no statement to turn fan on in the THEN clause, so I don't think it is activating what you think it is. You could try another program where you name FAN Test or something have the THEN statement turn on the fan wait xx mins and turn off and ELSE turn off.
  12. Probably best if you could post the programs to be looked at.
  13. I have downloaded Mobilinc X and want to see what I can do with it and how it can be displayed on wall mounted tablets, but the trial version says I have to enable mobil linc connect to get it to work. I know for what I want to do it will require the direct bundle, but there is not a trial version for it, there is just an outright purchase for 79.95. How can I preview this without connecting to moblinc or spending 79.95 to see if it is more advantageous for my needs then Agave, which I use presently? I am interested in what is customizable as far as display screens.

    No Common

    The 2474 does not require a neutral, but if I recall correctly it is a dimmer, not sure if they have a on/off switch. I believe they called it a 2 wire.
  15. Also, you may want to write a program to query the ZTH and/or Zw100 periodically to keep the temp updated, I run one with the above programs that queries the bedroom TH every 15 minutes.
