  1. Looks like my AP's are version 1?
  2. That's interesting. I'll take a look on one of my AP's to see if there's a Rev sticker, and leave them unplugged for a bit and see if I notice any changes.
  3. Thanks for the feedback Paul. Most of my current devices are single band (powerline), with the exception of Insteon 2420M motion sensors. I use Insteon 2443P access points on each phase of house AC service, to mange the motion sensors, and my current RF coverage/range seems quite good (900 MHz can overcome a lot of obstacles). I'm looking to add dual-band devices to help overcome what I suspect is AC transformer interference to a couple of devices on the powerline communication . It's a pain in the *** to trouble shoot AC interference in my house given all the electronics. The Insteon noise filters are fine for stationary devices, but not cheap nor practical to managing future interference elsewhere in the house. Adding more dual-band devices seems like most pragmatic way to overcome intermittent interference (hoping the cordless phones don't cause me headaches). I have not noticed an issue with programmed scene behavior in my current setup. I'm definitely gun-shy to add any i3 or similar Insteon products as the product description indicates a focus on proprietary management. I'm married to UD management of my Insteon devices due to my Elk security system integration. I'll probably stick with the 2412S for now, migrate to EISY, then upgrade to the 2413U PLM down the road.
  4. Good to know, thanks Brian! I'm presuming that if I buy the serial cable kit from UD, they terminated only the correct and necessary wires in the cable to support communication with the EISY.
  5. I have a happily working ISY994i, connected to an Insteon 2412S PowerLine Modem via a standard Ethernet cable (to Port A on the ISY994). The ISY is managing my Insteon networked devices. I also have (2) Insteon 2443 AP's, on each phase of house AC service, to provide 900MHz wireless for 2420M motion sensors. I also have a PowerLinc V2 USB 2414U PLM, with both USB and Serial cables. I'm planning to upgrade to an EISY (assuming I can acquire the device). Questions: 1) Will the EISY recognize and work with the 2414U PLM if I connect it to a USB port on the EISY? Or do I need to go with the serial cable option and continue using the 2412S PLM? 2) Does the new UD Mobile IOS app support shutting devices off manually? I currently browse to the Web interface on ISY994 to turn on exterior lights manually when needed. It would be nice to bypass the manual authentication of the web interface, and just click "ON" via an App. 3) Do I need to update the ISY994i firmware to a particular version to prepare my Insteon devices, or can I restore from a recent backup based off the current v4.7.5 firmware? Thanks in advance!
