I just updated to the latest Java 8 release 111 on a Windows 10 machine. After clearing the Java cache and applications I downloaded the Java applet but could not get an Icon to appear on my desktop. I had to uninstall Java and reinstall and then was able to get the admin icon. I'm running this application in the Windows XP compatibility mode due to the high screen resolution in windows 10 which makes the admin console fonts small and unreadable However I'm now getting a User Account Control pop up window each time I run the admin console. What do I need in order to bypass this window. The account control windows doesn't pop up if I run the admin console in the native windows 10 mode

Do the leds match any of those on the troubleshooting chart below? You also might want to try reseating the ISY SD card. Be sure to remove power from the ISY before removing / inserting the SD card

It's rare to have multiple PLMs fail. Is it possible that you have some type of electrical interference on your powerline. Do you have a long extension cord that would allow you to plug the PLM into a different circuit?

Is the green led on the PLM lit when it's plugged in?

Did you exactly follow the replace modem instructions? Replace Modem (PLM)This operation is most useful when you need to replace a defective PLM and the ISY is rebooted with a new PLM. When the communication links were established via the Link Management Menu, the PLM and INSTEON devices adds each device addresses it is linked to, in its own link table. The ISY also reads and stores the PLM’s address at boot up. The ISY stores all the configurations settings of the lighting network. If you are replacing a PLM the ISY will have the old PLM address link stored in it. Warning: Never replace your PLM while the ISY is running because it will assume it is still connected with the old PLM. The ISY will appear to work, but it will be writing the address of the old PLM into the device links, thus you will not see devices updates etc. If this menu option is selected, the ISY goes through all INSTEON devices looking for old and new PLM address links. If an old PLM address link is found, it replaces them with the address of the new PLM and adds the corresponding device link to the new PLM. To replace a PLM: Unplug ISY from the power outlet Unplug the PLM from ISY and power outlet Connect ISY’s port A to the new PLM Plug the new PLM into a power outlet Plug ISY into a power outlet Go to Admin Console and wait for system initialization to completeIf you have PRO Series, click on the Battery icon at the top. This will prevent ISY from trying to update programming on your RF devices which are probably in sleep mode Click on the Restore Modem (PLM) menu optionIn case ISY cannot communicate (or decides not to if an RF device/PRO Series) during the process, you will have a series of nodes with green 1011 icons in the device tree. For each one of those nodes: If an RF device, ensure that the device is in Programming mode Right mouse click | Write pending updates ... If the above procedure fails on many of your devices, it's highly recommended that you follow the instructions for Restore Devices

select INSTEON, then the name of the SCENE

The ISY only has provisions for one email account. The "FROM" field allows you to customize the specific email ,i.e. "from Alarm system", but not the email account

Did you put the device into the linking mode before you tried the RESTORE DEVICE and WRITE UPDATES TO DEVICE

The 2420M is discontinued, the current version is the 2842-222. v.41 is the firmware version. I think v.21 is the device hardware version The Insteon Address ID should be on a label inside the motion sensor. Run a Topology report, it's found under Tools | Generate Topology. That will create a list of all your devices along with their Insteon Address, firmware version, etc.

If your ISY is showing the device firmware at 00 then it didn't install correctly, you should delete and then reinstall it. You'll need to manually put it into the linking mode. Make sure the sensor is within range of a dual band device. Write a program similar to the one below. Program the changes you want into the ISY, then walk in front of the motion sensor and the changes should be written to the device. If Status 'your motion sensor' is On Then Set 'your motion sensor' Write Device Updates Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

The thermostat will report temperature changes to the ISY of approximately 2 degrees. If it's on an external power supply you're also able to query the thermostat

Another option is to use a 6 button keypad. The 4 buttons could be used to control scenes which could then control other lights in the house while the two main buttons would the kitchen light. http://www.smarthome.com/insteon-2334-232-keypad-dimmer-switch-dual-band-6-button-white.html

You can query the 2441ZTH, and make changes to its settings if it's running on an external power supply. If it's running only on batteries then you can only query or make changes if it's in the linking mode..

Take a look at this post http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/17614-program-icons-color-codes/?hl=icon&do=findComment&comment=158584 Right click on a program and select "status icons" then click on "detailed"

Is your alarmtype variable a State or a Integer variable? It should be a State variable

What's the date code and firmware version on the problem unit?

I tried everything to no avail. I ended up doing a RMA.

I just ran across the same problem with a 2441ZTH Hardware version 1.50 Firmware version 0E It reports humidity but not temperature. A factory reset didn't resolve the problem. I have several other 2441ZTH with earlier hardware and firmware that work perfectly. I'm doing an RMA on this one. The current 2441ZTH is hardware version 1.6, Hopefully they corrected a flaw in the previous release.

A "not responding" will give you immediate results if the device does not respond to the "not responding" It's probably not a good idea to run a lot of queries as creates a lot of Insteon traffic and might interfere with your normal operation The "3:00 AM query all" does exactly that, it queries all your devices. It runs at 3 am so not to interfere with programs, etc. that may be running in earlier time slots. Is there a particular problem that you're trying resolve?

when soldering you have to be careful not to apply too much heat as you can damage the relay case and the relay. I normally use an IC socket, solder to the pins on the socket then plug in the relay, or if you're inclined to solder directly to the relay pins then use a heat sink between the relay and your solder joint

add an off statement to the Else clause and change control to status in the IF statement ELSE set keypad to 0

The ISY queries the sensor to get its firmware version so it sounds like the sensor is defective. The date code indicates that they were built in January 2014. Not sure if those units even had a .40 firmware. Sensors built in late 2014 had a .43 firmware.

Do your other leak sensors also show a firmware version of v.40 Did you buy them all at the same time

Did you first delete the sensor from the ISY before you tried to add it back in, if not try doing that.

A possibility is that the Leak Sensor was programmed with the wrong firmware at the factory What's the date code and hardware version on the sensor?
