Geddy, Yep you are right. I didnt know what the cost was. Sounds like a deal. I consider myself educated now. Thanks all.

I would like to to indicate when my garage door is open by illuminating or blinking the LED behind a button of a control pad. I scanned the forum and tutorials but no luck. I realize I could turn on a separate light somewhere but would like to keep it all at the controller. Any help or guidance is appreciated.

Also thanks to MWareman. I will reconsider the, as you put it, "cost of admission" .

Thank you Lilyoyo1 for your quick response. I paid for it initially of course. I didn't realize I was committing for only one years use. I thought it was a purchase not a paid service. Thanks for confirming this for me. Looks like I screwed up. I will look into the HUE emulator not sure what RPI or Polisy is but I will research those too. Thanks for taking it easy on this Newbee.

Hello, been using my ISY with Alexa for sometime now over a year). However I received an email message recently stating my license is expiring. I ignored it figuring it was some sort of marketing scam. Well, my license did expire and I no longer can control my devices via voice through Alexa. All scenes and programs and devices are still active and running in ISY. What happened? I do not recall purchasing a license agreement when I first set it up. I do not want to pay an annual license fee just to control my lights through Alexa. Am I all wet here? Is there really an annual license fee? If so does anyone know another tool/software package that can take ISY portal's place.
