TheA2Z started following Just took the Yolink plunge... , Support Thread: IoX v5.9.1 (2/10/25) , Upgrade from 5.8.4 to 5.8.4.1 Issues and 3 others
-
Upgrade went fine including pg3 My ip address did change though.

Thanks to @Michel Kohanim for getting me back up and running. I opened ticket and he responded with: Please reboot using the following method: 1. Press/hold power button -> red 2. Click again -> blue Everything working again.
-
@Pmool No, I turned off Zigbee support. Rebooted and reloaded admin Gui. Doing same as above.
-
@Techman Ok thanks

Completed Upgrade. Downloaded new GUI. Cleared apps in Java. Reinstalled Gui. Shutdown EISY. Disconnected power for 30s and then plugged back in. Noticed the following: Once Gui comes up, top green buttons for Automatically write changes and Include battery devices cannot be turned off when clicking them. After about 5m, a box pops up stating to Authenticate ISY. When I put login and password in and click ok, a box pops up and says the system has been restarted Please start a new session. When I go to config tab and portal tab there is no connection to Portal Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

No. They are wired EISY with zMatter. Thanks

My zwave devices are functioning but when I try to do an "Update Neighbors" on some devices the update neighbors fails. Screen shot below. Note that it appears that the devices further away from hub are doing it, but not all of them. I can do a successful "Update with Interview" on the devices and I can do a successful "rewrite all device links". Anyone else having this problem? Anyone have a fix?

Any plans for EISY to support Zwave 800 devices? I know they are backwards compatible but looking for EISY to be Zwave 800.

Not to be a "Debbie Downer" but what does this give me to upgrade? My Yolink hub is plugged into same Battery Backup APC as my eISY so nothing there. It has a Cellular hub. I have a dual WAN setup with Tmobile Home internet (5G Cellular) and Xfinity cable modem. Ubiquity router switches to Tmobile 5G modem if Xfinity is down. Its still not a true local hub as it uses cloud over cell. If you dont currently have a battery backup or dual wan, I can see a reason to get. I dont know how much that sim card and service will be but Tmobile 5G home internet is $50 a month with no minimums. However speed varies and is not available everywhere.

This is why I use a Zwave motion, Temp and Humidity sensor in shower area of bathroom. Using motion, fan comes on for 5 minutes if someone uses the bathroom and stays on for 5 min. The motion gives the humidity sensor time to stabilize in that 5 minutes if using the shower and stays on until humidity drops to the desired level. However, I dont find the zwave connection to eisy stable on these battery motions. Sometimes I have to remove battery and reinstall to get it to reconnect. That is why I would love yolink to create a motion with temp and humidity so I can mimic how I do it now. Yes I could put a yolink motion and temp/humidity sensor but would prefer not to have so much hardware on ceiling and it makes it costlier.

Good plan. Would love to hear how the motion analysis turns out. Not a big fan of the insteon and zwave motions I have now. I wish they offered a motion with humidity sensor too. I have these zWave in bathrooms now. So far yolink has been rock solid on the temp sensors in fridge and freezer and water leak detection. Integration with eISY has been perfect too. I will really look at going Yolink before zwave devices going forward. Only drawback is Yolink does not have a local hub yet. Everything goes to cloud. Has not been a problem yet but connection with Eisy would stop working if internet was down. Not an issue with me as I run a dual wan at the house since I need always on internet as I work from home. Their new hub is supposed to offer it but still not released.

Nice. I still have a zwave outlet strip from Zooz for a few years that works really good. May look at yolink if it goes poof. Be interested in how the motions do. They make an outside version that I will need to try. Right now I have motion floodlights on zwave switches. I find motion floodlights to have alot of false alarms no matter how much I adjust the sensitivity. I wonder if Yolink will be more concise. It would also enable me to point the motion more strategically vs just where the floodlight is. Also want to try inside motions too as my zwave battery motions are just ok.
-
I would think that it would change the resistance of the cable skewing results. Does it offer a temp offset in the sensor where you can calibrate it so it would be accurate with the longer cable? I had to offset the temp of a Yolink temp sensor in my fridge as it was off a little. Was able to do it in Yolink app.

So far so good. just wanted to give the forum my perspective. Isy user since 2016 with over 70 insteon, zwave and matter (Smartthings) devices controlling/ detecting leaks, hot water recirc, lights, motion, Temp, humidity, fans, humidifiers, mailbox, shades, LEDs, alarms and AV. You can say I am hooked... Now adding Yolink. Bought the speaker hub, 3 leak detectors, two temp Humidity sensors for the fridge and freezer, two outdoor contact switches(1 for Luba robot mower to ensure still in dock at night and 1 for my hot tub cover to ensure its closed when Im not home. Got them all on Amazon for less than Yolink site and 1 day delivery. Bought the PG3 Yolink node. Install was very cut and dry on Eisy with PG3. Works great. Have been running insteon leak detectors for years but get bad intermittent reception on a couple of them. Full strength signal with Yolink. Nice that they have a siren on the actual device as it makes it easy to determine where the link is quickly. I still have quite a few Insteon leaks but will only replace if they go bad. Nice to have full strength signal in the fridge and freezer too. Alerts setup in case fridge breaks or other outage. Will continue to monitor but I have high hopes for Yolink due to increased signal strength and distance. Not to mention uses regular AA batteries with some devices getting 2 to 3 year battery intervals. I will definitely look to see Yolink options going forward vs zwave for any new devices.
