I'm using Snow Leopard and I don't have any airport stuff. Just a D-link router Drew

!@#$%^&*() I just went into the furnace room where all the gear is (I should have gone there first clearly, sorry for wasting everyone's time, and yes, the next time the car fails I'll check for gas first !@#$%^&*() Anyhow, the two network cables were unplugged (I'll get to the bottom of that with the daughter tonight) How do I hook it back up? Port A on the ISY 99i goes to the PLM and the Network goes to my router? That's how I plugged it in and I only see the power light. Still nothing on the ISY Finder. I switched the network cable joining the ISY to the router and still nothing Drew

My Airport utility is still 5.6.1 But it just seems to look for wireless devices.

Let me know where to go from here. Also, don't be sorry for what Apple does. A true Apple user likes their product, not their practices. (I should print that on a t-shirt) All this started off by me wanting to switch out one SWL for another. Drew

Got it but the ISY Finder can't find my ISY. It asks for the URL. Drew

Hi Michel; It's 10.6.8 I find that when I type 192.168.0.104 I can access the ISY but when the GUI pops up it endlessly keeps "initializing System" That's as far as I've gotten. Drew

...hello...?

I know it sounds crazy but it's true. When I click my "99" icon it opens my software update on my Mac. Hoe do I fix that? Drew When I go into the info.plist in the package contents it says this.

Hi Guys; I unplugged the ISY to move it to a different room and now I can't seem to stop it from flashing. The two top lights flash Memory error. I can't seem to find it in the posts here. Every different wording I use to search the forum ends up with a "No Search Criteria" or something of the sort. I apologize for the presumably simple problem. Drew

Hi Guys; Just got my new ISY 99i (thank you again Michel and Rand for the over and above service, I promised I wouldn't get misty, ) I noticed it doesn't have a power supply. I believe my PLM is the 2413S but will have to check when I get home. Can I use my power supply from the ISY 26? (Just checking so I don't fry anything.) If not, what amps, voltage, centre negative or positive, should I get? Also, since I've had the ISY 26, I've only been able to update to 2.7 (ish) Does this ISY ship with the latest version or should I update when I get it? Do I set it all up and then update, or update the version first then set it up with my system? Drew

Hi oberkc; I probably wasn't clear. When I have the "MAIN" or "A" button in the scene, as I do, and I try to ADD the "D" button from the same KPL to the scene to shut off the LED of the "D" button, it THEN tells me that it is already part of the scene.

I can't add the button to the scene as its the D button of a KPL that is in the all off scene. If I try to add it into the scene it tells me its already part of the scene. I turn the scene off from another KPL that triggers the scene. When I say the load is off, the light that is wired to the KPL is off. It is not a controller but a responder to the scene. There's only one controller to the scene. (that's on a different KPL)

I'm not entirely clear on your response. I'm not sure what a "link record" is. The scene works fine. I just want to have the LEDs of the KPLs in the scenes shut off when I press the "ALL OFF" scene. i.e. The hall light goes off (it's the load on the KPL or the MAIN or A button) but the D button LED stays on. I'd like that to shut off too. I'm not sure what you're talking about when you say "node". And I don't believe I need to restore the KPL. And it's not a powerline quality issue. I could make a button grouping but then I can't have two scenes on the same KPL running at the same time. Drew

I know it's been covered but I can't find a posting anywhere. I have an ALL OFF scene but not all the KPL LEDs shut off even though the load is off. When I try to add the KPL D button as a responder (just an example) it says it's already a member of the scene. If someone could point me to the posting or answer this post, that would be great. Thanks, Drew

I think that has it. I just tried an existing program and it triggered. I'll try to write a few tonight sometime. Thanks for the info. Drew

I've rebooted the ISY and reset the PLM. The console boots up fine (It showed two of my addresses and wouldn't boot, I deleted one and it did fine) I was able to downgrade to 2.7.15 from 2.7.6 and the update seems good. But none of the programs will run. I tried making a new one and it wouldn't run either. Next step? Drew

No red lights are on on the ISY. (there is the yellow light so I know there's power to it) I'll try to reboot the PLM tonight when I get home from work. Are the directrions to reboot the PLM on the site? or the WIKI? (forgive me, it's been years since I've had any issue with my set up and I forget how to do most of this stuff) Drew

The ISY Finder had it in there. (192.168 etc...) I added it again and the "U" number for lack of a better term was the same as well. I still seem to not have any programs or timers. Drew

Shortly after I tried this it didn't work. I contacted Paul and he said there was a bug in it. Has anyone figured out how to make it run? Drew

I'm going to try and install the 2.7.15 version. I realize my ISY 26 is no longer supported and I'll have to upgrade to the ISY 99 but my new KPLs and SWLs still work fine. Is there something I'm missing out on? Drew EDIT I tried updating and it won't work (I have a MAC and i followed the MAC instructions.) I entered https://192.168.1.100/admin (my isy address number) and it opened a little JAVA window, i typed in admin admin and then it tells me the program wont run) "Could not open file" [/code/insteon.img] and then Refused program update (ouch, that hurt on a personal level I still have the 2.7.15.zip on my desktop. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I live in Southern Ontario so the time zone difference between myself and phone support is 3 hours. That would put me at work when they're open. Drew

So I haven't done any programming or anything for probably over a year (the ISY runs smooth so I don't have to) but I just bought some more smarthome KPL swl etc... and wanted to incorporate them into scenes. But now I can't seem to get my programs back up. I tried to reboot but must be forgetting something. I see no programs on the GUI and none work. I unplugged the ISY for 30 seconds and plugged it back in. What is my old brain forgetting? It's an ISY 26 and when I try to update the version it won't for some reason. Drew

Thanks for the speedy reply. I know about the press and hold but what I was hoping for was the ability to do this scenario. I press B on the remotelinc to set the movie scene. I press it again to make it brighten to a set amount (or even just trigger another scene with everything exactly the same except a bit brighter) because I pressed pause on the movie. Then I press it again to dim it back to the movie scene. Is this possible? Drew

Hi Guys; I had a pdf from a user that said it could make a button multi-use. (i.e. when i push the B button, the scene is triggered, when I push the same B button it brightens, pressing it a third time brightens again.) It never did work. Is there a way that this is possible? Drew

Its an odd beep then. It sounds more like an electrical short than a beep. I can only assume that's the beep they are mentioning. Thanks for the reply Drew

Hi Guys; I've just bought new switchlincs and a new KPL. I hooked them up properly and when I throw the breaker back on I hear a very short buzzing sound for just a second and then it's gone. I also hear this after I let go of the set button when I press it to link them. I wondering if anyone else has heard this. Talk to you soon, Drew

I'm blown away at this. I'd love to get this working but alas I am but a mere mortal as far as the programming aspect of this goes. If I understand this I can affect a scene four different ways from one kpl button? Such as dim, brighter, brighter still, brighter still, full on? I'm not sure how to even start this. i printed off the PDF and am looking at it now. If I have this right i: Create four scenes (these scenes are programs 00 01 10 11?) a little lost already (are these scenes or programs?) If anyone has the patience to drag my overtaxed brain through this I would forever be in his or her debt. Drew
