Monitor displays “No signal”

Thanks for the reply. All that is good to know for future storage problems. I'm not sure how any of that will fix the root cause of my issue being the Eisy does not turn on. What am I missing?

Red light is on, so it has power. Pushing the button or holding it does nothing. I tried a different power supply, NG. Light stays red. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks

I'm sorry. I have never used SSH, and I don't know where to start with that. I can now open Lox Finder, but it's not finding it. I tried several ways, including using the local address as it looks like my router still has the original address. When entering http://1.2.3.4/desc Where 1.2.3.4 is the local address Iox returns "Not Found. So, how do I start a ticket?

It's been a long time since I've had any problems with Eisy on my Macs and other devices so I have forgotten everything including knowing what color the unit light is when on... Blue or Red. Anyway, I started to update Eisy and I believe I interrupted the update by mistake. I tried rebooting and also tried to find it on the network without any luck. I tried connecting to it in different ways, one of which was https://eisy.local:8443/desc and tried using the IP address of it also without luck. I also cleared my Java, reinstalled Start etc. Still not there. I have backups. I also checked to make sure my browser has local network permissions. Please!! what have I missed... even if there is a way to start from scratch and use my backups? Other things tried: Turned off VPN, also on one of my Macs Apple message returned saying it can't open START because it can't determine if it is free of malware etc. Thanks!

Thanks for the info. Much appreciated.

Please see the attachment... I can click on either one to open and the program appears to run just fine. Also, if I make any changes it is seen in both. Note: Both UUIDs are identical. The top one's URL is https:eisy.local:XXXX/desc. The bottom one is https://192.168.XX.XX:XXXX/desc Thanks....

Thanks, I will start with your recommendations. Looks like both of my devices mentioned have node servers. I will get those added and look for the next steps in the documentation you suggested.

Question: Where might I find a resourse on getting started with Ployglot and other non insteon devices that I would like to integrate into my UD system. For example, I have a Somfy Shade and Monitor Light Bar Color+ light. Thanks

I am grateful for all the input. Goose66 & Geddy provided very helpful details of what was needed to understand and be considered in the programing to reach my specific objective. Input from others was also much appreciated and I have used those approaches in a couple of other new programs that use the Insteon Motion II detectors in a way that don't need a program to execute leaving the sensors to take on actions after triggering, such as waiting for X amount of time before turning off. So again thanks to all of you for your thoughtful responses.

SUNSET CAME AND ALL HAS RESPONDED CORRECTLY TO THE INTENDED OUTCOMES. Thanks to all for sharing your knowledge. I’ve been able to use all your input, if not on obtaining the ultimate desired result of this program then also applying your input to enhance other programs. Again many thanks!

All wonderful input to learn from. I understand one advantage to this approach is there is little delay. Correct?

Goose66 & Geddy, Thanks for the info! I actually started to go down the path of two programs for each time period but I didn't get them quite right. The description of the effects of my programs posted here were correct and allows me more insight into the IoX. Over the years as a novice, I have programed some interesting interactions between devices and scenes but this one just totally stumped me. I will integrate your input and see what happens this evening.

As I replied, the timeout is not critical. So I infer you are saying I should write programs that control the scenes by time day(/night) and let the sensor deal with the triggering the resulting scenes. I did not think of being able to modify a scene in the background and then calling on that modified scene having been preset to levels. I will experiment with that also.

Thanks, I’ll give it a try.
