Has anyone written a program that will sense a garage door is open and keep repeating the announcement via Alexa until action by myself turns it off? Frank Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

1: What is the correct color wiring and connected to where? 2: Unable to connect to PLM 3: right now I have the ethernet cable (gold or clear colored) connected to the side of the eisy. This is connected to the USB adapter which then connects to the PLM via the blue USB to Serial 2413S ver 2.1.

Has anyone had success installing the Aeotec window/door sensor 7 Pro on your ISY 994iZ Pro? If so, could you assist me? Also, is there a better sensor than the above. I am presently using the Aeotec motion detector 7 and it works fine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Are there any proficient Universal-Devices programmers within the VERO Beach, FL area. I am looking for someone ( paid) to maintain and improve my whole house automation when I become incapacitated to do so. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am trying to make a decision to change UD controller or stay with what has served me well ( mostly ) for many years, but I can’t differentiate the contenders. Comments please. Frank Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Does anyone know if the Aeotec 7 MultiSensor will work in the UD 994iz Pro and if yes, instructions on inclusion instruction. Frank Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Does anyone know of a replacement ( a bit smaller ) for the Insteon open/close sensor 2843-222? Could be anything that works with ISY994i that has zested module? My present 2843 sends out intermittently with the door closed. Frank Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can view my camera while at home and WiFi is on. However if I turn off WiFi I can not access the camera. This camera has been working perfectly up to about a couple weeks ago. It is the Insteon PTZ camera. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? Did Insteon shut off their server or change their access info? Or has something changed in my Comcast gateway? Frank

Is Insteon/ SmartHome going out of business? If so, what are users of the ISY 994 going to ? I have tried and can’t even get to talk to anyone at SmartHome. Also have not seen any new products or even emails about discounted products in quite some time.

I have the same problem which O posted a couple weeks ago. The ONLY data I get is motion detection. Temp, luminance and battery level all froze up and don’t send data any longer. I tried a new battery with zero results Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the feedback. Have already done the above. Will wait for 24 hrs and see if any parameters may be affecting the performance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Firmware and UI both 5.3.2. 1 sensor is Insteon MS II 1 sensor is Zooz ZSE29 ver 2.0 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, did not recently do an upgrade. Asking if anyone else is experiencing a similar problem before I go replace the batteries because of difficult location to get to. I’m running 5.3.2 at the moment. Just ironic that both quit at the exact same time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just had 2 motion sensors from 2 diff companies, go dead at same time and wondering if a coincidence or are others having the same problem? Has anything changed on the ISY994iz ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Try using “ON” and “OFF” instead of “Fast on” and “Fast off” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mustang65, Thanks for the update. That is exactly to results I experienced. It appeared, in my experiment, the solar cell only had a MINOR influence on the life of the battery and what I actually experienced was just the typical life of the 1.2v battery in a scenario similar to yours. Not sure, but I think I didn’t have enough current from the solar to fully charge the battery each day. If you come up with a solution, please advise and I will do the same.

Mustang65. Thanks for the update. Appreciate the info. I’m going to give it a second try on my mailbox sensor and if successful I’ll try on my motion sensors frank

Mustang65. Thanks for the update. I posted last week but guess it didn’t go thru. Where in the solar charging circuit did you tap in and did you use the battery that came with the solar light or did you stay with the Insteon battery? Did you consider using both in parallel? frank

Great info Mustang65. I tried using solar cells bought off Amazon that did not keep the battery charged. I also used a high capacity battery. I will probably try using the lower capacity battery and a repurposed solar light. Thanks for keeping us updated.

Thanks for the feedback Mustang65 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the thorough feedback. Please keep us updated as I’m sure many of us would love to reduce battery changes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks, I’m really interested in the results. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If I am correct, you need more than 1.5 v to charge a 2.5 v battery. I think 20% more. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sounds interesting. Please keep me updated. I would also like to see the schematic of how you will tap into the solar charging circuit and how you will implement the 10k pot. Most solar lights use a voltage multiplier circuit to increase the voltage from the battery after the photo cell determines it is dark enough to turn on the LED. Do you tap into the circuit before or after the multiplier circuit? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

From my ISY994 iz. The 60 minute interval is much too long especially since when the lights are on and a request is issued to report the luminance, one may have to wait a full hour before it reads again and is dark enough to trigger the program. I am using a level of less than 10 luminance along with motion detected to trigger my occupancy program. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
