May I take this opportunity to plug an Insteon repair service here in Canada. No fix, no fee. If 2413 or 2412 fix the fee is $30CAD. It may even be useful for those in America although I have not discussed American clients. The guys name is Gil. He's fixed up 2x2413S and 2x2412S for me (yes I have some 2412's as backup!). He may even frequent this forum although I have not joined the dots. https://www.kijiji.ca/v-general-electronics/mississauga-peel-region/insteon-repair-service/1629894953

FWIW I didn't have much hope for a new PLM source and have been hoarding the last year or so. I now have a decent amount of pretty much all components I need including 5 spare working PLMs + 4 ISY's (2 sites). I should be good for a long while.

Any more data/links on the PLM Pro pls?

Um.... Instiwrong ? Sorry. I'll get my coat.

Update 2: I have 'resolved' the issue by completely deleting and re-adding manually each NR. I can now add new functional NRs. I can only assume there was some corruption somewhere that carried over a backup/restore. Not sure but onwards and upwards...

Update: Tried DHCP, same issue. Router is DECO X60, no DNSMasq.

Hi folks, Fimware / UI 5.3.0 It's been a while since I added a NR. I have a total of 56 of them working fine the last one added maybe six months or so ago. When trying to create a new HTTPS POST NR, I either copy an existing NR or create a new one from scratch, I get a TCP client DNS error with a strange error code: [sfvad vadv] All previously added NR's continue to work flawlessly. I cannot see any issue with the ISY DNS, I've configured both the router IP and Google DNS, same issue. I don't understand why if I copy a working NR, save, then test it fails. Could anyone shed some light? I've restored config to a test ISY unit, same problem. No apparent issues with the SD card. edit: added info

I would start with the basics: Power cycle everything, PC, ISY, router etc. Make sure cabling is good.

It looks like an IP issue to me? If you know the ISY IP address try pinging it.

Thanks Javi, I shall have to fiddle around. The programming I am presently using was gleaned from here I think some time ago from another member.

Hi Javi, Thank you for explaining. Is there a change log that documents changes such as these? Would there be a way in the next release to revert back to also having the user number in the main node? That way it would be an easy path to refresh the programming, as I tested using the child node Access control, but as we can see in the log, the sequence is now different, and my existing programming does not function if I substitute the child node for the main node. This is what I presently have with 4.3.0, which has been working fine for a long time. =================================================================================== Control - [ID 003F][Parent 0042] Folder Conditions for 'Control' If -

Hmm, the Zen32's look nice, I bet they look good with the screwless plates flush with the switch, like the KPL's are advertised. What do folks do about button labeling?

I was weary to revert firmware remotely and have been able to attend site, revert to firmware 5.3.0 and sure enough everything works as before - user number is assigned to door lock node and my programs work correctly. Interestingly there is now no information presented through Access Control Alarm node, it is blank with 5.3.0. So, is this a bug with 5.3.4? Perhaps has the way the ISY communicates with zwave / Schlage locks has been adjusted / upgraded between 5.3.0 and 5.3.4? Not sure. If anyone knows I am keen to learn.

The factory batteries were awful - straight into some led flash lights they went.

FWIW Energizer Lithium have worked properly for me in Insteon Leak Sensors. Last a looooooong time.

Here is a snippet from the log relating to the door being unlocked by user 5: Entry / Front Door / Front Door Status Unlocked Mon 2022/05/16 12:53:02 PM System Log Entry / Front Door / Front Door Access Control An alarm occurred (values are different for each device type) 6 Mon 2022/05/16 12:53:02 PM System Log Entry / Front Door / Front Door Access Control The user access code that associated with the most recent Alarm 5 Mon 2022/05/16 12:53:02 PM System Log Here is an older log entry when user number used to work: Entry / Front Door / Front Door The user access code that associated with the most recent Alarm 10 Fri 2021/10/01 05:59:45 PM System Log Entry / Front Door / Front Door Status Unlocked Fri 2021/10/01 05:59:45 PM System Log It appears the way the ISY is organizing the zwave lock data is now different since the firmware upgrade(?)

Remote address so difficult to do much in a physical way until I am on-site. I recently updated ISY to 5.3.4 and since then (I think) both my Schlage BE469ZP dead bolts no longer report the user number on the main node in the user number field (see pic). It remains blank. I have programs that utilize this information that no longer function. The user number DOES still appear in the Access Control Device node (see pic) I don't appear to have any zwave comms issues, nothing has changed on the ISY aside from the firmware update. The issue happens using both Schlage locks I have on-site, so we can rule out an individual lock. I have not attempted any form of synchronize / update neighbors / repair links as I don't think it has anything to do with the problem, but please do correct me if I am mistaken.

May I recommend X10 and a Firecracker controller.

This intrigues me, yet probably very possible with the ISY.

Perfect thank you. I won’t put any more effort into it.

I'm concerned this valuable resource will vanish without notice. Does anyone have a good source for a backup or is there an easy way to scrape the data? I do not know how to list al available docs to pull them.

And what a cluster that thing became.

Forgive me for intruding but there is a HUGE price discrepancy between 700ZW products and Lutron (RA, Caseta, Homeworks etc.) not to mention the capabilities of 700ZW go way beyond those of Lutron. Both have their place.

Well crap, put it up it sold pretty instantly! now I will buy the family something nice, thanks all!
