  1. I haven’t bought any of these but I have a friend who has. I’m not sure which dimmers you are specifically looking for from Zooz but here are some different color paddles. https://www.thesmartesthouse.com/products/replacement-color-paddles-for-zooz-700-dimmers-zen72-zen77
  2. Good news! Thank you for sharing @Techman
  3. I’m referring to the pictures at the beginning of this thread. You can see the word “home” beside “eisy”, but I saw The thread I was referring to was this. You are probably caught up it may have sounded like I was talking about a different post. You may also notice earlier in this thread Michel mentions and “basic” and a “next” with upgraded hardware on the “next”.
  4. Just got an email from Insteon aka Ken. My email address with hub subscription still has not gotten additional updates. After a suggestion from @MrBill I registered a new email address and got this update. Ken is asking for feedback on a survey for products to incorporate into their app and what you use to control them. What I saw was important was that it specifically mentioned 3rd party solutions albeit it was with Insteon solutions but I marked that to encourage supporting 3rd party control.
  5. Ok wasn’t sure if the node info was in the same order on the new port. The only thing I can think of that might be different about my confit is I used the IP address in the config and not the hostname.
  6. I verified mine updates according to the polling interval too. One thing I did at first @btreinderswas I was looking at the "Mute" being "Off". At a glance it looked like my Denon was off when it was on. Its on the left hand side of the AC, and the power is on the right hand side.

    It worked with my Denon as well. Thank you again!!
  8. I would very much consider a VPN vs port forwarding rule. It's a little more effort but eliminates the risk. I thought port 3000 might be an obscure port and "fly under the radar" but my search shows its a Bit-Torrent port on the open internet, so that might make your router a little more attractive for random hackers. I would actually recommend to not open any port on your firewall inbound.

    Thank you @jjc. I was hoping someone would take this over. I have 2 Denon AVR-1913's. I tested one in Home Assistant already, but have started testing Network Resources on my IoP on the other Denon. I'm not in any rush to do anything right now, so I could be a low pressure tester for Denon if you want me to try anything specific. Feel free to PM or we can start another thread if there's anything specific you want me to try. Otherwise I will try to find some time to load the NS and see how it goes with my Denon. Thanks again!!
  10. Very much agreed. I saw this about Z-Wave after posting my previous response. One thing to keep in mind Z-Wave is not the answer to all your problems. You may want to read some threads on the forum about Z-Wave, there is some good, and some bad and make up your own mind if want to rush or wait on EISY. I think for a long term ISY/Insteon user you might find Z-Wave frustrating as there are some nuances with Z-Wave. As far as upgrading to Polisy vs EISY(soon to be available), there is no OTA firmware upgrade for Z-Wave on Polisy. That is one capability Michel has mentioned will be available in EISY. Another thing to consider with EISY is it will have Matter support(I am still on the fence about Matter as I want to see what it will do, but the EISY will have the best of all worlds.) Since there is a lot going here, here's a summary of the recommendations: -Stay on your current firmware of ISY(I trust Geddy on this) -Research Z-Wave on the UDI forums -Wait for EISY and contact UDI support about your upgrade path and requirements for what you have now -Wait for Insteon hardware availability for short term needs or shorter term needs buy used on eBay(some prices are starting to come down) I think your linchpin is your 32 bit applications and I understand that. One thing I will consider a WIN for UDI and Java, is the Admin Console worked on my MacBook with M1 chip. I wasn't locked to an older OS or chipset. There are a lot of complaints about Java here in the forums, but it seems to be the least of the issue here compared to the 32 bit applications you need. The fact my Admin Console ran with no headaches on Mac M1, thats a win in my book.
  11. Very much agreed with this @CPeterson If no issues definitely wait. Let me know if you need help with trying to get the admin.jnlp directly from the ISY, but instructions above from Geddy should be all you need. Im not sure on if you will be better prepared. I am not familiar with the upgrade paths. One thing to note is UDI is coming out with the EISY....It will be the newer version of the hardware with Matter support. It might be worth opening a ticket with UDI support about your upgrade path to EISY. Unless you need a newer version or UDI support recommends the upgrade, I would say "if its fixed dont break it", only because you have other dependencies for your device. From what I can tell the Start.jnlp has to connect to UDI, so you need internet and launching the Admin Console may just be taking longer on the ISY. The admin.jnlp should fix that. Thank you for mentioning this, I had forgotten that about the specific version. Im guessing the M1 chip isn't making this any easier. I can confirm the Polisy with Java works on my MacBook Pro with M1 chip if anyone needs to know. Im not sure I would update just yet, unless you really need to. I just saw this reply as I was typing everything else above. Geddy is the best, thank you for the ISY info!!
  12. Sounds like the summary is you got your Java updated, but the ISY Finder won't launch on the version of Mac OS you are on. I looked it up the Mac OS version you are on and it was originally released in 2017. I totally understand the dependency on the older version of Mac OS since you have programs that depend on it. I would think eventually you will have other issues with other programs on this version of MacOS. As far as missing out I don't think so, it just sounds like you are failing a version check in the ISY Finder that is not in the Start.jnlp. Until recently I was running the Start.jnlp instead of ISY Finder, because of some confusion on my part and both ways of launching showed the same interface. I am on a different hardware and version as I'm on Polisy and v5.4.4 @Geddy is there any difference in the Admin Console whether it launches from ISY Finder or Start on the ISY? @CPeterson I think ultimately you will have to make some decision about upgrading your Mac and how to use the programs you need, but you don't have to solve that today. I can imagine issues like this may creep up with other applications and possible web browsers.
  13. Can you check your Java version again? I wonder if it actually updated when you saw the rotating circle. I have updated Java once on my Mac since getting my Polisy. I have gotten the rotating circle a few times with Java, but not frequently and I don't remember any issues with upgrading. I was launching my Admin Console every time with the Start.jnlp until working with Geddy a little bit and getting a better understanding. You Should have an icon on your desktop now "ISY Launcher", if it works the same as it does with Polisy. This is how I launch now and should be faster. There are some ways to remove Java, but I don't think you need to try that until you verify again what version of Java you are on, just in case it has been upgraded in the background of the other issues. Since Im not a long term UDI/ISY user, I would be hesitant upgrading the ISY until the Java issue is resolved and updated. I would think you want to be on the latest version of Java first.
  14. @Bumbershootand @Hoosier Daddyare right on. Adding https://forum.universal-devices.com won't help unfortunately, but you could try adding the IP address of your ISY device. Edit: Info added, nothing above changed. I went back reread your post. Adding the IP address will not help at this point, until you can run the Start.JNLP. Making the change suggested above(in the (Security and Privacy Settings) should help. Here is a screenshot of the Setting mentioned above.
  15. I'm guessing your question about how often is related to time??? As I understand the manual of the device is it reports when the lighting changes by a certain percent not at time intervals. By default this should report when a 10% change occurs as you mentioned. It looks like you can set this sensor to report from 5-50% by changing the parameter. The Zooz Zen 32 is closest I have found. I don't have any experience with Z-Wave outdoor rated sensors, but if I were to try one I would try Zooz.
