What's Needed for Electricity Power Monitoring
Most of the smartmeters use a Zigbee radio. You should check with your utility provider to verify its radio and to see if they will provision your meter to allow you to read its radio. You would then need to purchase the Zigbee module from UDI which will add Zigbee compatibility to your existing ISY.

Scene Not Responding Accurately to KPL
jbferg Can you post a screenshot of the KPL scenes. Are the KPL buttons listed as a controller in all the scenes? Have you tried a factory reset on the KPL?

How to debug email not working issue
Open your ISY error log and take a look for possible SMTP or other errors around the time you had the email failures. Also try increasing your email time out value in the ISY configuration settings. Who are you using for your mail server?

Communication issue with PLM and I/O Linc
Paulbates The extension cord would be for testing purposes only, just to try to isolate your issue by moving the PLM away from equipment that may be interfering with your powerline signal. Use a cord that has a ground.(3 prongs).

Communication issue with PLM and I/O Linc
Depending on what else you have plugged into the same circuit as the PLM, it's possible that something (in your rack?) is interfering with the PLM powerline signal. A UPS or computer close to the PLM will have an adverse effect on your PLM signal. Try using an extension cord and plug the PLM into a different circuit if possible. Keep in mind that the I/OLinc is a powerline only device. If that resolves your issue then you need to isolate the device that's interfering with the PLM with a FilterLinc.

Sending email notifications - sometimes they don't work
Tellijcl Take a look at your error log about the time you didn't receive an intended email. That will help you narrow down the problem. Also try increasing the timeout in your email configuration. If you're sending out several emails at the same time try putting a few seconds wait in between the notifications.

Not sure what else to suggest. If no one else has a solution then you should submit a ticket to UDI and they will get you squared away.

Quick doorbell question
I don't think there's an Insteon module that will work with your setup. The chime most likely doesn't draw enough current to trigger a Insteon Synchrolinc 2423A5, but you may want to look into it.

Climate Module No Longer Working

Climate Module No Longer Working
Input a city name rather than a zipcode. You'll also need to have the latest ISY firmware.

Smoke Bridge Nodes
Michel When I query the "CO2 Detected" node I don't get a response, same with the "Clear" node, and the smoke detected node. All the other smoke bridge nodes respond to the query. The "current state" for these three nodes is blank, the rest of the nodes all show as off. Is this correct?

Run At Start Up - FAQ

Unable to load city data in the Climate Module
This is what I get if I type in Riverside (see attached). In the ISY Help > About, Make sure that both your firmware and UI are both 4.2.8. Are you running the latest Java version 1.7 update 67 (the update may vary depending on your browser)

Unable to load city data in the Climate Module
What displays when you type a city name into the find box? If an acceptable station shows then click on save. I'm using Internet Explorer, not sure if there's a Firefox issue.

How to read temperature log from Insteon thermostat linked to ISY449?
there's not a separate log for the thermostat. if you look at your ISY log you'll find entries for the thermostat's temperature. you could also have the ISY email you the current temperature every xx minutes, etc. that could be done with a simple program. Update - I just saw your second post. The specs show the operating range for the thermostat as 39 to 104 degrees, so it probably won't work for the freezer

I can't get the climate module to find a location
Click on "Find" then enter just a city name in the find box, no zip code or state. Once you have an acceptable station click on it then click "Save" Let me know it that works for you.

I can't get the climate module to find a location
No need to contact HW. You'll need to update your ISY firmware to 4.2.8. The latest version of the firmware supports HamWeather.

HamWeather stations
I've also noticed that some feeds are intermittent and/or there one day and not the next. Try using the closest airport as a location just to see if you're getting updates. The airports are usually the most reliable stations and have the most data. Station KORD is O'Hare Airport.
