I imagine a z-wave plug (which I have) would work as well for the modem as no internet is needed for that either? I have kasa plugs that I could use for the EISY... thanks!

What do you use to turn your router off for 1 minute?

that's good news!!! thanks for the updates on your experiences.. Will be curious if amazon can figure out who / where I am as I am in a second home with a different Alexa account, but still use my prime account here. Been a pain trying to get Amazon Music subscription to work here becasue of this.

There have been numerous posts about Alex+ breaking the UDI skill for the connectivity between Alexa and Eisy. I just received this email from Amazon, suggesting that they will be automatically updating us. Has anyone else received this? Any better luck lately with Alex+ and UDI??

Like @Guy Lavoie Its much easier to have the geofence toggle a variable between 1 and 0. example variable: Mark is home Geofence when entered, changes variable "mark is home" to 1, when leaving changes it to 0 The program is then always enabled and the trigger is when " mark is home' =1 (plus your time constraints) Works very cleanly and is easy to manage and troubleshoot.

@Diesel So I guess its S0... but working.. battery life isnt great.. about 9 months. But it's working and I a ton of programs that relay on the current "node" as well as resources etc. SO LEAVE IT BE is the answer! thanks!

Do I have to do anything special to get it to do S2? And how would I know if my 10yr old Yale lock is even capable of it? Thanks.

Trying to determine if my locks are using the proper security, I ran Xray DH Command Class on one of hte locks and then on a wall wart plug and a zooz relay switch. Not really knowing what I am looking at, I do see a difference between the lock and hte others. Specifically in the fourth line which has the word SECURITY. in it. For the lock it says True, for the others it says False. So @Diesel I wonder if the security is correct and with the EISY zooz stick, it no longer needs the 75' cable / proximity to associate correctly?

I have a 6 button keypad in my bedroom. Main button controls a light. KP1: fan low --> in a scene with fanlinc motor KP2: fan med--> in a scene with fanlinc motor KP3: fan high--> in a scene with fanlinc motor KP4: security If my security system is engaged at night and I am home, kp4 lights up and is set up as a quick and easy way for me turn off the security and if pressed again w/in x minutes, will reengage the security. I have this so that in the rare occasions, if in the middle of the night my dog needs to go out my bedroom door, it's a quick and easy way for me to deal with the alarm system. So last night, the dog needed to go out. I pressed kp4. The kp button turned off, the security system turned off.... all as expected. When the dog came back in, I re-pressed kp4, just like I have done many many times over the last 8+ years where there have been no changes to this program or the Fanlinc scenes etc. However, instead of the security coming on, suddenly the fan started to turn on and off and all the keypads buttons that control the fan started to blink on and off corresponding with the power level that the fan was turning on! Thinking the switch had somehow shorted out, I pulled the gap out. Switch went dead but the fan kept cycling. I opened up UDM to the fan scenes and the cycling was continuing there. Trying to stop or start turn on turn off etc was not affecting the cycling of the fan. I finally went to the fanlinc motor node and hit stop and all was good again. Pushed the stop gap back in, pressed the security button and the security came on as expected. In 15 years with this technology.. this was a new type of "event" for me.. lol.. and not a fun one at 3:15am... enclosed is movie of UDM cycling. Why kp4 triggered this event is beyond me. And no, for those of you wondering, there is no program associated with this fanlinc at all and never has been. The wonders of gremlins. ScreenRecording_01-11-2026 03-08-31_1.mov

Agree I did that many years ago..... this time I did not. Is there a way to tell how they are connected now? Seems like the zwave signals are stronger than they used to be as well, as if I remember correctly, I needed the 75' cable and close proximity to the i994 to even get it to join. This time, w/o the proximity it joined immediately.

Not high priority. Was just wondering if this was expected behavior and whether or not you knew about it. Thanks!

@Javi Not fixed. I have a ticket that's been open for two months.. Benoit was the latest to respond a week ago. I am on 6.04... Remote connections thru UDI DO NOT WORK CORRECTLY. Whether its UDM, the AC or the new Eisy UI.

Agree. I see in another posts someone looking to move away from Insteon to Zwave.. I would never.

TheZooz was in a far part of the garage and when the Garage door lock acted up , I suspect it disconnected it per @oberkc . When I moved the zooz indoors near other zwave devices it works fine. Replaced the batteries in the lock, excluded it and then re-included it. Did the same with the rear garage door lock. Cost me 2 hours of updating tons of programs that use my locks, but all is back to working again. Thanks for the inputs!

I think it was in the very early stages of UDM. so I just went with the program approach and havent changed.
