Yes, this problem seems to have started when I performed an update. I did mention this UD support. Maybe a doctor should listen to his patient..... Anyway, is there way to roll this back? Thanks for helping to make the likely connection

I removed the ZW/Zigbee dongle. I don't get the infinite "System Busy" loop message, but now I get other popup errors and the system keeps rebooting itself.

I'm in the middle of a trouble ticket, but it's on pause because of the weekend. In the meantime, I'm wondering if anyone has some insight regarding this problem. I recently migrated from ISY to eisy. All was going well. Only glitch was I had was to make eisy rediscover the battery-operated ZW devices and fix the programs involved. Eisy is now on an infinite "System Busy" loop. I think it started after I used "Upgrade Packages." At the advice given through the trouble ticket, I tried to power cycle, restore with an earlier backup, remove any plug-ins and look for programs that are in a loop. I cleared the Java cache. Nothing works, and now I can't load any programs, either. I'm attaching some photos. Thanks for any hints. Bob

Thanks, will do that

Migrated from ISY to eisy, and using ZMatter USB. All of the plug-in ZW devices migrated easily. I was able to migrate one battery-operated ZW device after waking it up and using Synchronize/Update with Interview. As for the rest of the ZW devices, I can't get them to migrate and stop saying Placeholder. I'm placing the devices close to the dongle. Does anyone have any insight or tips on what I'm doing wrong or what I can do? Thanks. Bob

@TechmanThanks again

@Brian HI have a serial PLM for ISY, but I have a new USB PLM to use with eisy. What I was wondering if that would be a problem switching out when I set up eisy? Or should I get a serial adapter cable and set up eisy with the old PLM for now? Thanks @TechmanThanks!

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, and I don't want to mess up migration from ISY-994i to eisy. I know this has been covered a million times already, but that's actually created a bit of information overload. I have a serial PLM hooked to ISY but have a new USB PLM to use. I have several battery and plug-in Z-wave devices. I would like to do this on a desktop, not mobile. Would some of you helpful forum members point me to the right Wiki and/or give me a few tips? Thanks as always. Bob

I've had a Tempest unit for several years. It even survived an EF 3 tornado that destroyed every tree around it. Very happy with this product, and the app is great.

I bought Ecolink Z-Wave Plus Indoor Flood / Freeze Sensor FLF-ZWAVE5-ECO from The Smartest House 2 years ago and they have been working well. They are out of stock on The Smartest House website, but available at Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/Ecolink-Zwave-Freeze-Sensor-FLF-ZWAVE5-ECO/dp/B0716YVPLG Bob

Same here

Hi Techman, Thanks for the help. This is the smoke detector: https://www.amazon.com/Z-Wave-Detector-Carbon-Monoxide-Generation/dp/B08FFB233Y Also, I am attaching a document from First Alert labeled confidential (!) which has some technical information. Have a good day. Bob BRK_ZCOMBO_Z-Wave_Specification_V2.pdf

No, not using Insteon Smoke Bridge. This is a Z-Wave alarm that connected through the Z-Wave dongle.

I was able to connect add this alarm to ISY, but I'm not completely sure what each node does. The manual says nothing. Although it may seem self-explanatory, I want to assure that I correctly set up a notification for smoke, CO2 and maybe low battery. Many thanks. Bob ---------------------------------------------- The nodes are as follows: Notify Sensor (which shows the battery level) Smoke Alarm 1 (reads idle) Smoke Detected 1 (reads off) Smoke Alarm Test 1 (reads off) CO Alarm 1 (reads idle) System Alarm 1 (reads idle) Hardware Failure Alarm 1 (reads off)

Success! First I reordered the repeat line as suggested by @larryllix. It still didn't work. Then I created 2 programs as suggested by @dbwarner5. It now works perfectly. Thanks to everyone who responded, and in general thanks to all who make this forum invaluable. Bob
