Okay, so one thing I did notice in the video from the link above, is that he has the ip address of the ISY instead of the main computer. I was told many years ago to port forward using my ip address of my main computer. But it looks like that has been wrong?? I should be using the ip address of the ISY?????

I do have an isy portal license but use if for Alexa.

Asus RT-AC86U with Merlin 384.19 firmware installed.

I just got a new router. The port forwarding is so much different but it is supposed to be easier than my AT&T router was. Well, anyway, I am trying to port forward but I have some questions first before I go too far. In my ISY994, should I keep automatic and UPnP boxes checked? The only thing I have filled in are the ip address 192...... and the http 80 and https 443 ports. Also, chunked decoding is set to default. I have port forwarded in my new Asus RT-AC86U with Merlin 384.19 firmware installed. I used a utility called Port Forward I have had for years. It has the service name as PF1, external port as 443, no internal port, the internal ip address it listed is that of my computer and not of my ISY994, protocol is both, it has no source ip listed. I know everyone has different routers, but I was hoping someone would have some insight on this. Thanks.

Wow, how did I miss that? Thanks so much.

I have it set up in my bedroom that on the KPL switch I have in there, I can turn off lights in the Dining room if they had been left on. The KPL button in the bedroom lights up when any lights in the dining room are on and when I push the button it will turn off all the lights that are on. The only issue I have is that for some reason, the KPL button in the dining room that is controlling one of the lights that is being shut off, that button light stays on. The light itself on the device shuts off, but the button light does not go off. I have no problem with any of the other buttons or switches, just this one. I'm sure I'm missing something but what could it be? Something in my programming? Thanks.

Well, I got it to work. I just went in and exported the programs. I imported them, deleted the old programs, did a restore to all, and now the programs are working.. Woo hoo. ?

The only thing that doesn't work with this program is that the light on the led button does not turn off. It turns of the lights like it is supposed to. The other thing I notice with several of the other programs that involve the same shut off is the lights on the led button don't turn on to let me know that lights are on. I'll keep trying but I am at a loss.

Well, in this program, the only thing this button is supposed to do is to turn off every light that is on in that room. Would that be toggle? Thanks.

What mode should it be in? toggle or non-toggle mode?

One of my programs is called basement light check off and another is called basement light check on. I have it set on a KPL to light up if lights are on downstairs and I can hit the button to shut them off. Now, the light is on in the keypad and it won't shut off the lights downstairs and the keypad light will not go off. I am attaching a copy of the program to see what I'm doing wrong. It is the same one that has worked for years. It just quit working and won't start up again. You don't know how much I appreciate everyone's help. Thanks so much.

Both firmware and UI match. I have checked that first.

I programmed my isy994 many years ago and have not had to touch it since for programs until my PLM went bad and now I have issues. First can anyone tell me the scenario of the colors of the programs and why they are not the same? Why are some green on the left side and white, some are yellow, some are all green, and one is white with a green arrow. I think we need to start there first. In the summary, some are yellow and say not loaded, out of memory and some say not saved. Thanks.

So, how do I know if it is center positive? Forget it. I found out.

I am going to order a new PLM. Since I have never done the setup of a new one replacing and older one, what process do I have to go through? Thanks.

Sorry, but would any of these work? +5.0V---2.0A DC5V---1A 12V---2A +5V---2A These are what is found on the 4 that I have that fit. How can I tell? Thanks again.

A power supply for the isy? The new PLM won't supply power, right? Where do I get the power supply? Where can I find the specs for the power supply because I have many that fit it. I just need to see the specs.

My isy keeps saying it can't find my devices. For a while it didn't find most of them. It was missing all but 4 of the 40 or more devices I have. I did a reset of the isy first. Now more are back but it still says it can't find 11 of them. I've been trying to query, write updates and restore device to see and some have come back. I have it down to 7 now. I have had no issues until I went to put in the new switch today and then all hell broke loose and it started going crazy.

I have a 2412. Do you think it is time to get a new one?

So there is no way to reset the PLM without losing everything?

I don't want to erase everything. I have another post in the communications issue. I just needed a quick response to see what I needed to do. I was trying to put in a new switch. It came up with an error that said it can't find insteon engine. Then a little while later, I now cannot communicate with any of my devices with the isy.

How do I reset my PLM? If I do, will I lose any info?

Well, that solved the problem. I wish I were smart enough to have figured that out myself. I just don't work with this often enough to know it well enough. I set it many years ago and don't have to mess with it too often, so I have a tendency to forget some of it. Thanks to all that have helped me out. I now add new scene and it gives me what I want.

No, it is not. firmware is 5.0.15 and UI is 4.6.2 What is up?

I was having an issue with my 8 keypad switch and had to replace it. I was needing to make a scene for one of the buttons and have spent hours and can't get it to work. The issue that I am having is that every time I create a new scene, I name it but it comes up as null. Why would that be? No matter what I do, I can't create a new scene that works.
