The fifth time I tried it it worked...

I followed the wiki I tried it again. When I go to admin screen Your System is in Safe Mode Restore PLM Modem Insteon_errors--30 -2000000/-30

Had a power failure at the house. I guess this knocked the PDM out. The green light on the PDM would not turn on. Have the new one plugged in, it shows the green light. ISY 99 will not connect. When I start ADMIN it states "safe mode" When I "restore PDM" I get Error -20000----30

I installed 3 Insteon and 3 Elk wireless motion sensors around my place. My lights have been acting funny the last few months, so I finally got around to logging into to ISY99. I wasn't getting any reaction from my Insteon motion sensors. I started to check batteries, all the Insteon 9v's were dead, ELK's still going strong. Shouldn't ISY tell me when the battery is getting low? Or is this something I need to program in? Thanks

I have outside lights I want to be on at dusk till 11pm, then only turn on with motion from 11pm to sunrise. Right now they stay on all the time... Here is my programs: If From Sunset To 11:10:00PM (same day) Then Set 'Outside Garage' On Disable Program 'Garage Outside Motion' Else Set 'Outside Garage' Off Enable Program 'Garage Outside Motion' Run Program 'Garage Outside Motion' (Else Path) If Status 'Outside Garage Motion-Sensor' is On Or Elk Zone 'Motion - Front' is Violated And From Sunset To Sunrise (same day) Then Set 'Outside Garage' On Else Wait 15 minutes Set 'Outside Garage' Off

Those instructions don't really match the latest firmware. I tried to follow them, not sure if I have the latching correct. It seems that my garage sensor and relay have the same settings. Changing one changes the other.

I have the ELK module for ISY. I have been using my Elk sensors to trigger isy events without issues. Today I wanted to have my Elk wireless keyfob trigger the lights to come on. I cannot see the keyfob in the listing of elk devices. I can see the zones ahead and behind it. Any thoughts?

I have a button on my keypad linc toggle my garage door open and closed. But it only acts like a toggle switch, and the light on the keypad linc could be on/off and not follow the state of the garage door. When the door is open, I would like to have the keypad button on. When the door is closed, I would like to have the keypad button off.

I want my downstairs lights to be on in the evening. Then late at night downstairs lights will shut off, unless there is motion. Then stay on for 15min after the motion stops. Any suggestions? I can currently have them turn on/off based on time. OR I can also get them to turn on/off based on motion. I cannot get them to work at the same time.

I have my keyfob button to toggle the state of a scene. If it is off it will turn it on, sometimes takes a few tries. I cannot get it to turn off the scene. It will flash off a second then flash on again. I tried different scenes with the same results.

I have a Scene "Downstairs" I have a program "bedtime" Bedtime turns downstairs off at 10:30pm every day If someone walks downstairs after 10:30pm I want the lights to switch on. So I bought a motion sensor. I am trying to write a program. Do I have to say "if downstairs is off" OR do I say after 10:30pm? If motion is on Not really sure how to do this

Ok, I ran these tests. What is the best way to post the output?

The only scene that would work was "My lighting" I created a new scene and put it in a program - that worked. So I deleted my scenes and recreated them. Now things generally work. It seems I am having some communication issues now. I have a program to turn on lights at dusk. I run the program, it turns most of the lights on, but the program status says they are all on. If I then query the devices they will correct and show off. If I run the program a few times in repetition, they will eventually all turn on.

Can you tell what that device is? It is a scene that turns all outside lights off/on. I can control the individual outside lights without issues.

I ran the event viewer #3 I was on my program that used to work fine Ran "IF" Ran "THEN" These are the results: Thu 08/05/2010 10:06:10 PM : [ Time] 22:06:11 0(0) Thu 08/05/2010 10:06:12 PM : [ Time] 22:06:14 0(0) Thu 08/05/2010 10:06:12 PM : [iNST-ACK ] 02 62 00.00.10 CF 11 00 06 LTONRR (00) Thu 08/05/2010 10:06:13 PM : [iNST-ACK ] 02 62 00.00.13 CF 11 00 06 LTONRR (00) Thu 08/05/2010 10:06:13 PM : [iNST-ACK ] 02 62 14.0D.E6 0F 46 00 06 (00)

I just did a restore PLM. I can control individual devices. I tried to run program, and nothing. I did run "then" will this run the actions of the program?

When I got to My Lighting I can turn lights on/off. When I go to administrator and run a program, it does nothing. Any thoughts?

It finally timed out. Said the PLM is not connected. Any suggestions now?

I get the "System Busy" bar multiple times. Seems like it is hung now

I have a ISY-26 I have had it running for a year with no issues. I can see all of my devices, but when I query them I get errors. Anything I can do to start to trouble shoot this?

I am using port 2601 and it works ok? I do have 2101 enabled in Elk. Let me switch the port to 2101 and see if that it why my keyfob will not trigger the lights

I download the latest ISY firmware and restarted everything. Now it works again.

I had this working once, but then I started having problems. In Elk I have both ports enabled 2101 and 2106 In ISY if I have 2101 selected nothing works In ISY if I have 2106 selected the Elk login info in the ISY screen flashes on and off. Any suggestions?
