  1. Looks like this upgrade breaks the Home Assistant ISY Integration. Probably because the login is now the Portal Login? Any ideas? I posted in the Home Assistant forum as well? Solution is: Change the credentials used by the ISY Integration. There is a hidden directory .storage and in that there is a file called core.config_entries. Control+F and search for the ip address of your ISY hub. I use the "File Editor" add-in in HASS to do this. You may need to tweak the configuration of the file editor to make sure hidden files/folders are not excluded. cudos to @maxnorth for the solution.
  2. I'm getting the same on a polisy.
  3. Does polisy get the new UI? I didn't see any mention of that in the Product Release.
  4. Yes, it's gets uninstalled when you clear the Java Cache. These are my notes. Load a New JAVA Admin Console on Windows PC ⦁ Clear JAVA Cache from Control Panel JAVA applet ⦁ To load the ISY Launcher. https://isy.universal-devices.com/start.jnlp ⦁ Install start.jnlp to C:\Utilities (or where ever you want.)
  5. I still have my 994i. I may try to resurrect it for fun. I wonder if the IoX backup from Polisy would load into it? But, as long as my Polisy works I’m good.
  6. I concur. The UDI Insteon controllers are way better than using Home Assistant directly with a modem. I'm using a Polisy for Insteon but use the z-wave adapter directly with HA. I really wish UDI would resurrect the lowly ISY994i for those of us that don't need all the other bells and whistles. It was excellent at what it did.
  7. Probably so. This is just a suggestion not based on actual experience but a long time Insteon, Z-Wave user. I think you need to add the main switch node of the z-wave switches as controllers of the scene, not those other "z-wave scene nodes". Just a thought.
  8. Here’s another description. What z-wave switches are you using? https://www.support.getzooz.com/kb/article/1259-how-to-use-multiple-zooz-switches-in-3-way-and-4-way-set-ups/
  9. Here’s another discussion on it. https://www.thesmartesthouse.com/blogs/the-smartest-blog/114982596-wiring-z-wave-switches-do-s-and-don-ts
  10. I haven’t tried this but it might be you need z-wave switches that are 3-way compatible. https://aeotec.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/6000247679-3-way-wiring-installation-for-illumino-switch
  11. @EJones01 Thanks for the link. I was unaware of EST. I'm crazy about ESPhome. I've fabricated many of my own sensors and 3D Printed enclosures. The Everything Presence One has some nice features and component selection. I'm definitely picking one up. -phil
  12. I can’t resolve your issue but to say I abandoned my Wireless Tag platform for Yolink.
  13. Hopefully ESPHome will adopt it without too much delay.
  14. If only my memory were that good. Also, I could never be sure that UDI hadn't expanded the Portal Account's requirements elsewhere other than just remote, Alexa and Google. I believe Portal authentication is used on their website and for some things in conjunction with PG3.
  15. I read in the Wiki about the UD Portal: I'm trying to simplify my home automation by eliminating platforms/products I don't really need. I've been on the UDI track since the early ISYs and currently have a Polisy just for the Insteon Interface with Home Assistant and I don't have any Node Servers. So if I'm not using any of those technologies do I really need a Portal Account?
