ISY994i errors during restore of backup
If they're are no ! or no 1101 to the left off the device names in your device tree then you're probably OK. You can always run a link table diagnostics and then a compare for a device if you think you may have an issue with a particular device. If errors show up then do a restore device to correct them. I've also had error messages come and go when doing a restore but all seemed to be OK.

ISY994i errors during restore of backup
If you have any battery operated devices they need to be put into linking mode, one device at a time, then do a restore device. Battery operated devices sleep until put into the linking mode in order to save battery life. Take a look at your devices to see if you have any 1101 next to the device name which indicates that it needs to be written to.

ISY 994I/IR PRO seems to be stuck in an infinate loop while Linking
From the screen shot It looks like HamWeather may be the problem

1101 error
and after trying a "write changes" the 1101 still exists then you have a communication problem between the PLM and the Device.

8 button kpl not working
I've had KPL's do strange things after power failures. What seems to work best for me is to do a factory reset on the KPL then a restore device.

Lost communication
Did you remove power from both the modem and the ISY, then restore power to the modem, wait about 10 seconds restore power to the ISY and then do a restore modem?

Hidden Door Sensor OCCASSIONALLY registering twice
Take a look at the ISY log, next time it happens, to see if the door sensor is sending more than one open signal. If so you could have an intermittent issue with the switch in the sensor.

Unable to set scene to a value between on and off
A scene can only be turned on or off. The on level and ramp rates for the devices within the scene need to be set for each device after they are added to a scene.

Notify intermittent or flakey? Or is there some magic setting?
PS: On an additional subject, I have the following in a Customization Notification "Notify test". The messages sent do not contain CR/LF and the text is received as: Temperature is 89 FHumidity is 43 %21:11:07Larry Pollis:larrypollis@icloud.comOn I have tried Text, HTML and XML (and for XML I get an attached file with an .XML extension as I would expect.) How can I include the CR/LF? Thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Use HTML and put <BR> where you want a LF/CR

Lost communication
Pmwill If the green led on the PLM is not lit then for sure it has failed (assuming that your PLM has the green led.)

Ipollis You might want to take a look at your ISY error log to see if you have any email related errors.

LED lights flickering when turned off from linked insteon switch
I don't have first hand experience with these bulbs but when I took a look at the specs it didn't mention that they were dimmable. The 2477D is a dimmer so there may be a compatibility issue between the bulb and the switch. If that's the case you may want to try a 2477S.

Whose LED bulbs are you using?

Install a replacement 2413S
Make sure you only have one wireless device at a time in the linking mode. The motion sensors need to be opened up and the button pressed in order to get them into linking mode.

If "Control is switched Off" no longer working. PLM bad?
Make sure that you don't have a computer or any electronic devices plugged in close to where the PLM is as they can interfere with power line signals coming and going to the PLM. Did unplugging the Monster power strip make a difference?

Weather problem
Are you using a state variable or an integer variable?. A program can only be triggered by a state variable. Take a look at your variable to make sure it's properly initialized. Being that your weather data is coming from Montreal Airport is should be reliable. You might want to take a look at your error log to see is there's any HAM Weather related errors.

If "Control is switched Off" no longer working. PLM bad?
It's OK to plug the ISY into the UPS and the UPS should be plugged into a filterlinc. Don't use a filterlnc with the IOLincs as it will prevent their (single band) powerline signal from getting to the ISY. Try unplugging the Monster Power strip to see if it helps. Some power strips can create noise on the powerline. Is your PLM a dual band model? Changing the batteries in the MS or adding a AP shouldn't create the problem you're having. As side note you could always update your single band switches to dual band which should help improve reliability.

If "Control is switched Off" no longer working. PLM bad?
in addition to what oberkc suggested, have you added new electronics, appliances or CFL bulbs, etc.about the time the programs quit working

Weather problem
Can you post all the related programs. Where are you getting your temperature data from?
-
Install a replacement 2413S
and DO NOT delete your old modem. Make sure you have a good back up.

Program ran, but scene not triggered
MustangChris04, Were you able to resolve the problem? Techman

Starting from scratch
Make sure you're not exceeding the rated wattage of the devices. If you have more than one device installed in the same box then the wattage of the load must be reduced due to heat. If a device is acting up you could also try doing a factory reset on the device, then a restore device from the ISY.

LINKING ISY 994i PRO
Did you have a previous PLM that was working and replaced it with a new one or is this a brand new installation?
-
Starting from scratch
You should also make sure you have a stable power source. If your area has frequent black outs, brown outs, etc then you should first look into a whole house power line filter as power line surges can reek havoc on electronics.

Program ran, but scene not triggered
The ISY log will show if a device has changed its status, it doesn't log if a program ran. The program summary shows when the program last ran and when it's scheduled to run again. If the program summary shows that the program ran then the problem is either with communications or the PLM. Being that the scenes reside in the PLM and assuming that you have no other issues controlling devices then I would focus on the PLM, power line interference around the time the program ran or if you have multiple programs running at the same time then they should be separated by 10 seconds or so to avoid collisions. Does your ISY log show any other activity about the time your program was supposed to turn off the lights?
