I have a Harmony remote, and several devices that use the Harmony app to control my Home Entertainment setup. The core Harmony configuration is stored on the actual Harmony 'controller' not in the app on the phones or tablets. When I launch the app, it automatically pulls the latest config to the app and off I go. I can edit on any device and it stores the new config back to the Harmony. This would be a great addition to the UDMobile setup. Right now, I have 4 devices running UDMobile and have to go to each one to do a hand sync / hand add to favorites, etc. if I make a change to the setup. Suggestion is to store the Config on the Controller (EISY / Polisy), and pull down when UDMobile launches. I understand this is a significant architecture change but would be REALLY cool. My $0.02 after taxes.

Static IP assignments are usually controlled by your router, not the device. I can 'reserve' IP 192.169.1.xxx for a certain device on my network, then set that device to use DHCP. If you hard code an IP in the device and don't reserve it, the DHCP server won't know about it and you could end up with IP Address conflicts. How you reserve it is a function of the router, and the methods are as unique as the router population.

Got that - I know that much about zwave. My issue was adding the lock previously removed from the ISY to the EISY. No nodes were created - so no control.

I moved everything to the EISY. Had to reintroduce ZWave (now on both controllers), and cleaned out the ISY Completely EXCEPT as noted. 1 ZWave device (with 2 nodes), and the four programs.

UPDATE: I am now using both the ISY994 and the new EISY. I stripped all nodes/devices from the ISY EXCEPT for the offending ZWave device (the August Lock). I figured out how to make the 2 controllers talk after perusing this board. (Love the brains here). First of all, I've submitted a ticket for the ZWave issue on the EISY, and as of this writing have not heard. On the ISY I have 4 programs: 2 lock and unlock the door respectively (needed the granularity for the programs that now reside on the EISY), and 2 control trap programs that grab the lock event (open or closed - in case I open directly) and make URL calls from ISY to EISY programs using network events. The target programs on the EISY set a single state variable to 1 or 0 to indicate the door is locked or not. Then use that to control the rest of the logic. I trap the switch event on an outside light in my garage, call the ISY program to unlock my shop, turn the lights on and set the state variable. Used this for a LONG time and didn't realize how much I relied on it until it was gone. NOW IT WORKS! Thanks all.

Just upgraded from IS994i with the zwave dongle that controlled an August lock. I can add the lock to the eisy but it has no sense of what the device is or the status of the lock. The isy994 had it all, and I could lock and unlock with programs. I use this A LOT and I'd like to think I'm missing something in the setup. What do I look for? Where do I look? _____? Thanks! ~jim

Thanks. That's not the answer I was looking for, but the answer I needed.

Hi - searched quickly and didn't find the answer to my question. Can I use my current zwave dongle with the ZMatter USB Enclosure Only or do I need to buy the new ZMatter USB: Z-Wave+, Zigbee, and Matter Module for eisy (Z-Wave+ Certified – Long Range)i? Thanks! ~jim

Yeah, no dice. I think the programming lock flag was set with my old Insteon hub (that died an ugly death in a power surge). I may have to do a factory reset then reset up in my network.

As title said, "Options" button is missing for SOME devices (2477S for example). I turned off the LED lights as well as "Blink on Insteon Traffic" (aka "LED on TX in ISY jargon) for this switch and now cannot turn that back on...

Thanks. I have a 500 board (6.81 firmware). Appreciate all the help on this. While I am a techy, I have not dug into this platform other than to get it up and running.

Thanks for your help. How do I know what version of the Z-Wave board I have?

Yes. I tried that already, and it gets the same error as the APP. This page contains the following errors: error on line 19 at column 27: AttValue: " or ' expected Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.

So I had a port on the remote connection config that was interfering - cleared that. Looks like this works. I still get the first error on the screen shot no matter what I do.

I get no errors other than a timeout on the "Test System on Remote URL". However I get the errors in the attached screen shot when doing a refresh/sync:

My issue is the same only different. I have enabled Certs through the my.isy page, and added the module through the Java front end on my PC. Trying to set this up for remote access, I see my portal with the MAC address and it shows green on the IOS app when testing the connection. However, I get a timeout and it never connects. What am I missing?

Poked around and did not find an answer. I have an ISY994 along with an Eero hub on a UPS. My issue is, I had a power failure that extended past the UPS support time. When power was finally restored, the ISY was inaccessible by any means. I am assuming it booted before the network did, and was not able to obtain a DHCP address. I unplugged the ISY and plugged it back in, and then it was addressable. I am wondering if setting a static IP in the ISY would solve this? If so, do I need to set the Subnet Mask, gateway, and DNS boxes? Eero uses 192.168.7.x IP scope. Basically I want to fully auto-recover on power restore without any manual intervention. Thanks!

Hi all, I am trapping APC UPS events to send myself emails on electrical noise, power failure and power restore. Wondered if there is a way to trigger a program on - say - electrical noise event. The program would initiate "turn off" commands on select z-wave and/or insteon devices to lessen the impact of electrical storms (that are so prevalent where I live) to expensive equipment. Thought about hitting the ISY with a URL run program command but could not find the right syntax for that. Already lost an Air Conditioner and Security camera during last storm. Thanks! ~jimt

Ok, thanks! I will check that out. Could have been named something clearer like "DeviceEvent" but I am late to the design / requirements party!

Hi all, Tried to search for this, but got nowhere. In HouseLinc (yeah, shoot me!), it would know that a device button was set from off to on or vice versa. I have not seen where or if that can be accomplished in the ISY. What I want to do is trigger a timer in a program that turns off a given Insteon device at some interval (say 2 hours) after it is manually turned on at the device itself. That possible on this platform? Thanks! jimt
