The "URL to ISY" string isn't meant to be placed in the address bar of a browser but rather when sending HTTP Rest commands from apps like Tasker, Maker or ? The "Admin Console URL" is meant to be placed in ISY Finder Jon...

Global Cache has a number of devices that are popularly used to control a wide range of devices. Jon...

DHCP is advised to prevent future issues in the event of network changes and also it seems some have trouble connecting to the Portal using static address. If you use DHCP you need to reserve the address in the router for ISY but you can try a Static IP.. many use it. Jon...

To access the UI (administration console) you would use http://your.isy.ipaddress/admin(if you're using the java applet) or in case of the java application click on the icon created on the desktop. Jon...

Your UI and Firmware need to be the same version. Jon...

When you say updated UI... does that mean you've updated the Firmware as well? Jon...

Echo is a toy that currently offers some convenience but voice controlled automation is (IMO) where it's heading so if you want to play around with it Echo is a fun start. The chicken developed from the egg Jon...

There's several examples in Wiki detailing how to create network resource for sonos. Jon...

It does seem faster... I know there are other factors affecting latency and results may not always be consistent but I had timed responses in the past and was averaging 3.0 seconds and now am seeing 2.2 seconds from end of spoken command to change in status of device. Jon...

Do you show a list of devices in the Portal app > Tools > Amazon Echo Alexa's list of devices is stored on it's server and won't change unless "discover devices" is issued so I suspect you've lost communication between ISY and the portal. I don't know if using "refresh" in UI > Config > Portals would have any effect or not. Jon...

You might also update the firmware either back to 4.3.26 or update to latest beta release 4.4.2. Always ensure your UI and Firmware are the same version. Jon...

Before making any changes... re-run PLM Links count several times to ensure count is accurate. Jon...

Purchase Modules is simply a link containing your ISY uuid.. Are you able to open links in a client like say.. email? The following is the url I received testing purchase modules with my uuid xx'd out. You could try filling in the xx for your uuid and see if pasting into url works. http://www.universal-devices.com/sales/modules/?uuid=uuid:00:21:xx:xx:xx:xx&pid=1100 <<-- (pid=1100) I believe is the information following Product Info in Help > About > ISY 994i PRO (1100) Another suggestion.. if you aren't already... try using the UI java application (admin.jnlp) you'll have to download it from 4.3.26 release post. Jon...
