  1. They are HS200 which is an hs220 but just a switch not a dimmer. They seem to be working now or at least allowing on /off and showing me status. All of a sudden it started showing up. Now if I can get my home assistant to expose them to homebridge that would be great but I cant seem to find which domain they are under.
  2. Yea I added them in kasa App. I updated to the beta version of the kasa plugin in PG3 thenit saw all the devices and they are in the ISY but it just says connected. no ability to turn it on or off or anything. no info about it nothing.
  3. I have a bunch of Insteon devices runnign in EISY fine. I added the Kasa plugin in polyglot UI and i couldnt add any of the devices. Then I added the beta version and now it at least sees my 4 HS200 switches. They are in ISY admin as well. They seem to just be kasa controllers tho and Can not be turned off or on. However when I click on the folder I added them to ( which it added the whole kasa controller to not just an individual device ) It knows which are on and off and that is accurate. I cant add them to any programs or anything like that. What am I doing wrong?
  4. So I guess I need to enable the ISY portal which I wasnt using so i did that and was able to et the plugin running and a node set up. But I cant seem to add the kasa devices to it. Are there any tutotials for this? I cant seem to find one
  5. I have a mostly insteon setup with a few zwave locks. I am trying to add a couple of Kasa light switches in an outbuilding that is on the same wifi network. I assumed i need to go to polyglot and add the kasa node server and pay the $30. But when I click activate free trial or purchase the license I get this error AxiosError: Request failed with status code 404
  6. This is awesome. I was wondering if there was something like this.
  7. I ended up updating my mac OS and rebooting then clearing java cache and redownloading the start.jnlp which seems to have fixed it. But it didnt make my iox launcher shortcut for me.
  8. did that and it still gets stuck. redownload start.jnlp and it looks like its doing its thing but stuck at downloading application. Even though thats there the iox launcher gets added to the desktop. if I click that it looks like its gonna start with the UD logo on screen but just quits. Not sure where to go from here.
  9. Did you still redownload the current java version or a specific build?
  10. My mac popped up a java update and i clicked ok. Now when I click the launcher it shows the icon on the screen then quits right away. does not load the launcher finder window or anything. Anyone else experience this?
  11. Ok i did the factory reset and it still wont ramp on and off. I can dim the lights manually though so I guess I will submit a ticket to insteon
  12. yes i seem to have it set in ISY liek all the other switches but this one just clicks on and off I will be there today and try the factory reset first.
  13. Thanks for the info. what about how come I cant seem to get it to ramp rate on and off ?
  14. I have some i3 keypad and am able to make scenes and everything but some of them came from the factory where the bottom button is the actual controlled circuit. and some came with the top button as the circuit. Is there a way to change that? Also some of them seem to be able to ramp the lights on and off and some dont. I have set the mode of the main switch to dimmer and set the ramp rate. the same way I do everything else. Am I missing something?
  15. Yes its in my garage so I wanted task lighting. When the dimmer is at 90% no flicker but if its going to overload the switch I will probably put it to relay mode. Although insteon gave me this response to this question for an embedded device that says 50W LED max and I have 80Watts on it Question: One other question is I am using an embedded device to turn on some recessed led canless lights. there are 8 drawing 8.5 watts but I noticed on the device it says only 50 watts led or 200 watt regular. Is that ok or do I need to split the feed and use 2 of the embedded devices? Or maybe you have another solution? Response: It is mainly for the potential inrush current of LED's that can be 5 times higher wattage / current that their rated values when they first turn On. I have to officially tell you that it is over the rating but you will likely be fine. If you add a little ramp rate to the device so it takes a second or two to turn On, it can be helpful.
  16. these are the fixtures. but I have an older model https://www.homedepot.com/p/Commercial-Electric-1-ft-x-4-ft-4000-Lumens-Dimmable-White-Integrated-LED-Flat-Panel-Ceiling-Flush-Mount-Fixture-with-Selectable-5CCT-FP1X4-6WY-WH-HDT/320358738
  17. Ok actually what I did was set the on level to 90% inside the garage and that seems to have fixed the dimming of the exterior sconces.
  18. That seems to have fixed the flicker just changing the inside switch that was overloaded mode to relay instead of dimmer. And it even still does a ramp rate to turn on and off which is very nice.
  19. I actually just realized the leds inside are 300W 50w a piece X 6 so the dimmer switch is overloaded. If i change it back to on / off do i get the higher limit of the on/off switch?
  20. In a garage I have a dedicated 15 Amp 14/2 line going to a 2 gang wall switch box where 2 Insteon Dimmer Switches are. not i3 paddles. One controls 6 led surface mount panel lights in the room and the other controls 4 wall sconces outside with led bulbs in them. both are in dimmer mode. When Both of them are on the outside bulbs flicker. If I turn off the inside lights the flicker stops. If I remove either switch and wire the load directly to the line with a wire nut there is no flicker. Any ideas? I have tried all i know to try
  21. its a new i3 4 button keypad. it seems to group the switch weirdly im still playing with it and have some time to dedicate it tomorrow. I will report back. The only other thing is on the keypad flag object the buttons on the bottom of the eisy interface they seem to overrun past the edges of the screen and i cant se them all. I will try and get a screenshot.
  22. it is not on the same service. there are 2 separate service lines on the property ah so just used kasa in the far building. and they work well with the eisy?
  23. On my property I have a main building where my network is with my eisy and insteon devices. I also have a separate building a few hundred feet away that is on the same network via a ubiquiti bridge with insteon switches in it. It is also on a separate power meter. Is there a way to have those switches also in the eisy? Maybe I need a second eisy and PLM and just manage it separately or is there a way since it is on the same network to do something fancier?
  24. Ah so just label them as "Master Ceiling Light Flag" and then use them for initial setup? And what about keypads? Sometimes the keypad button says 100% instead of off on and only lets me query it. typically the button that is actually connected to a fixture is doing that for me.
