Monitoring for Z-Wave failure on eisy
Both my Zwave dongles come from originally being internal boards on a Polisy, so I ended up making my own enclosures which are on USB extension cables. Works very well. If you already have it as a dongle, a simple USB male-female extension should be easy to get.

Dumbing down to Insteon hub at vacation home
Mac not supporting java is something outside UDI's control. Unless UDI withdraws the ability to download admin console, it will remain available. If they go that way, I'm sure we'll be warned.

Dumbing down to Insteon hub at vacation home
I think he saw the announcement that support for Admin Console would end December 15. But it will continue working, especially for the ISY994i which hasn't been updated in several years.

What is the process to migrate from ISY994 to eisy?
The official procedure is listed here: https://wiki.universal-devices.com/Eisy:User_Guide#Migration

zooz motion sensor
I don't think you can. There is no "get parameter" button. Query doesn't seem to do that either.

zooz motion sensor
Zwave has a standardized method of setting options through parameters. There is a parameter number and a value. Your device documentation should have a listing of the individual features, and how to set them by choosing a parameter number and value. The Zwave alliance has a website that allows you to look up specifications, features and parameters for hundreds of devices. You can access it here: https://products.z-wavealliance.org/?_gl=1*1upc5b8*_ga*ODY1MzUxMTczLjE3ODkwODkxMjM.*_ga_EQLMJC35BT*czE3ODkwODkxMjMkbzEkZzEkdDE3ODkwODkyNTUkajQkbDAkaDA. You start by choosing a category, then a brand, etc. You'll get a full data sheet for the product. Scroll down to "Configuration Parameters" and see the parameter numbers and functions for that device. It can take a bit of searching to find what you're looking for. For example, for your case I started by searching the zooz brand, which lists 101 devices. Then find yours in the list, etc. Then click on "More information" to see the datasheet.

v0.0.27 to production; Move by percent
I'm still running the non-production 0.0.27 and finally got around to trying out the shiny new percent feature. Seems to work great! I set the travel time values in a standalone program called "startup" that gets run on startup. I'm old enough to be trained on the good ole AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS file days... One thing that does happen when sending shade commands in UD Mobile is that I sometimes get the message below, but the command still works. Not sure what might cause that

Virtual Plugin is disconnected
It was from PG3x. In fact the option to reinstall all plugins doesn't appear when you access plugins with eisy-ui, it's under the "System" menu, as you can see here when viewing plugins from PG3X. No idea why the System menu doesn't appear when accessing through eisy-ui.

Virtual Plugin is disconnected
I'd be surprised it having anything to do with being a Polisy. I'll just see if any suggestions come up first.

Virtual Plugin is disconnected
I just tried reinstall all plugins (on my test Polisy). It showed messages that it was reinstalling each one, but now a bunch of old plugins I was testing and the ones I was developing are all showing as Unmanaged... And I can't seem to be able to view anything about them. Looking at "List my Plugins" under the Developer heading also shows nothing. How do I recover, or even just delete these entries?
-
Virtual Plugin is disconnected
No, I've never tried that. I'm wary enough of just upgrading one! But I will give it a try on my test Polisy.

Does MATTER work on eISY?
dramatically? Oh my, time to redo my tests!

How to setup eisy-ui
If you can ping it or access it with admin console ok, then try it with the eisy's IP address, ex: like this: http://192.168.0.123

Virtual Plugin is disconnected
Dang...not sure what fixed it... lol. I rebooted the Polisy and tried the update (from usual dashboard), no go. Then I thought I'd try with UD Mobile as you do it. Started by doing a sync, then went into plugins, TaHoma, and clicked on update. I did get an error message (500) but it did update. It's as if updates work from UD Mobile, but not from the dashboard.
-
Virtual Plugin is disconnected
Well, I'm going to try and figure this out. I'll test it with the Tahoma plugin, since it's only installed on a test Polisy, and only has two programs referencing the Tahoma nodes.

v0.0.27 to beta; Move by percent.
Well @oberkc was having a similar issue trying to update the Virtual plugin. Like I said, I know the way plugins are managed is being modified, so I thought this might be related.
-
v0.0.27 to beta; Move by percent.
Not sure where you're referencing that button. From the dashboard I see the plugin (in slot 8) with status = connected and store = beta. If I click on Details, I see the main screen for the plugin. If I click on Update, I see that I'm running 0.0.24. See the screen shot below. If I click on Update, nothing happens.

Nothing works any longer on Polisy PG3 with Zwave.
Try a full power cycle, with power off for 30 seconds.

Virtual Plugin is disconnected
It might be a good idea, yes.

Interesting. I have the same issue with trying to update another plugin (Tahoma): nothing happens. Changes are being made to the plugins environment, so there might be something here.
-
v0.0.27 to beta; Move by percent.
Hmm, how do I upgrade from 0.0.24? I'm trying from the dashboard, from the non-production store. It tells me it's already installed in slot 8, which is correct. But when I click on Install, nothing happens. Tried this by accessing plugins from both admin console and eisy-ui.
-
v0.0.27 to beta; Move by percent.
Well no...what's needed is an icon color that morphs darker or lighter in realtime as the shade closes or opens! 🤣

Zigbee Devices Not Working after IoX 6.1.1 Upgrade
Is the device (the ZY 003 Sound Switch) a battery powered device? If so, do whatever is needed to activate it, and then do "Write Changes" (by right clicking on the node in Admin Console).
-
eisy-ui alternate color theme?
It's on the list of things that will be added.

That's a good first step.
