  1. It basically eliminates the PLM and electricial interference as the cause of your issue. The next option to try is stopping all your node servers, and disable Alexa. The commands are coming from the eisy, it's just a matter of finding out what is sending those commands to the eisy
  2. Try rebooting your eisy, you can also try clearing your java cache, be sure to check all 3 boxes, then download the IoX Launcher from here: https://isy.universal-devices.com/start.jnlp
  3. Can you acces the portal using this address: https://my.isy.io/index.htm If you're on a MAC it could be blocking the port
  4. @cchandler12011 What's your ISY firmware and UI versions? Try clearing your java cache, checking all 3 boxes, then download the IoX Launcher from here: https://isy.universal-devices.com/start.jnlp
  5. After updating did you clear your java cache, checking all 3 boxes, then download the IoX Launcher from here: https://isy.universal-devices.com/start.jnlp

    @matapan I just created a test program using the Zooz ZEN04. It triggered a program when the current draw exceeded .1 amp. So it should be an easy replacement for the Synchronic. Maximum Loads: a single device with no more than 960W incandescent, 150W LED bulbs, 15A resistive, or 1/3 HP fan motors If your current draw is highrer than the above specs then you should use the ZEN15 Maximum Load: a single device under 15 A (1800 W)

    You would use a program to trigger whatever you're trying to turn on or off, i.e. IF Status Switch energy current > .1 amp Then Do whatever Else
  8. Techman replied to matapan's topic in Insteon
    @matapan Another option is the ZOOZ ZEN15 which has more flexible reporting options
  9. Techman replied to matapan's topic in Insteon
    The smart plug displays current power, etc. You can use one of those parameters to trigger a program. The only downside is it can only report every minute so there could be a delay Watt Report Threshold Parameter 5: Choose how you want your Smart Plug to report power consumption to your hub. The number entered as value corresponds to the number of Watts the appliance needs to go over for the change to be reported. So if 5 Watts are entered by default, the Smart Plug will report any change in power usage over 5 Watts (whether it’s at least 5 Watts more or 5 Watts less compared to the previous report). Values for 700 series: 5 – 50. Default: 5. Values for 800 series: 0 - disabled; 1-100. Default: 5. Size: 1 byte dec Watt Report Frequency Parameter 6: The number entered as value corresponds to the number of minutes. So if 5 is entered by default, the Smart Plug will report power consumption (Wattage) every 5 minutes. Values: 1 – 65535. Default: 5 (minutes). Size: 4 bytes dec

    Yes, it's backwards compatible with Zwave 700 and the ISY994 500
  11. Techman replied to matapan's topic in Insteon
    The older and discontinued modules have older firmware and hardware. Some modules have power supplies that can be repaired but in the long run you're better off using the newer insteon modules or zwave. Zwave has numeous options that replace the Synchrolinc and most have firmware that can be updated by the end user. Here's a zwave replacement for the Synchrolinc: Zooz ZEN04 Smart Plug – ZOOZ
  12. @jlloyd_UD It's down to a process of elimination: If you log into PG3 there's an option in each node server to "stop" it You should stop each server to see if the issue still exists, if it doesn't then start one node server at a time to narrow things down. Do you have any insteon battey operated devices, if so what are they?
  13. @jlloyd_UD When you did the factory reset on your devices did you folllow the procedure below: Factory Reset Factory Reset clears all user settings from the device including INSTEON scenes, on-levels, ramp rates, X10 addresses, etc. 1) With a small screwdriver or your fingernail, pull out Set button to create an air gap 2) Wait 10 seconds 3) Push in Set button and hold. Do not let go Keypad will begin to emit a long beep 4) When the beep stops, release the Set button. Device’s embedded software will rewrite all settings to factory defaults A couple of seconds will pass Device will double-beep and its LEDs will return to normal brightness The connected load will turn on and the device will return to ready mode
  14. Did the lights still come on with the eisy unplugged? Did you factory reset one of the devices that was randomly coming on, if so does it still randomly come on? Are the devices that randomly come on dual band or single band devices Have you added any new electronic devices in your house in the last month?
  15. Your config file looks normal and is up to date. Is the green led on your PLM on? The restore PLM That you did which stopped at 2% is not normal. You could try unplugging the eisy and leave the PM plugged in to narrow the problem down to either the eisy data file or the PLM
  16. @jlloyd_UD It's possible that your device(s) link tables became cross linked. A factory reset /restore device would correct that. In your log do you see any activity just before the light comes on? Run the link below which will display your eisy configuration and post it https://eisy.local:8443/WEB/sysconfig.txt You can also try removing power from the PLM and the eisy for about 30 seconds, then power up the PLM, wait about 10 seconds then power up the eisy.
  17. @jlloyd_UD If you're seeing the on command for the light(s) in your log then it's most likely not connected to an all on event. I would focus on a program that's probably turning on the light(s) Take a look at your program summary tab to see if a program ran at the same time your light(s) turned on. It's also possible that the link tables for the light(s) got corrupted. Try doing a factory reset on the light(s) then a restore device
  18. One last thing you can try. Clear your java cache, be sure to check all 3 boxes, then download the IoX Launcher from here: https://isy.universal-devices.com/start.jnlp (this will install the IoX Launcher icon on your desktop) then try running update packages again. If you don't get positive results then it's best to open a support ticket.
  19. Are you upgrading from the IoX Launcher? Try removing power from the polisy for about 30 seconds then try "upgrade packages" again Your config.sys file is missing a lot of information, not sure why.
  20. Take a look at this article INSTEON Random All On Events - Universal Devices, Inc. Wiki You should also do an "upgrade packages" on your eisy which will update you to 6.0.0 and contains substantial upgrades/improvements over your current firmware.
  21. Techman replied to Techman's topic in eisy-ui
    I haven't upgraded yet, I'm at 0.5.9
  22. Techman replied to Techman's topic in eisy-ui
    @bmercier Thank you What's is the current version of eisy-ui. I think I have an older version as there is no version showing at the bottom of eisy-ui
  23. Techman replied to Techman's topic in eisy-ui
    The sysconfig.txt file doesn't show the installed version of eisyui. There's a separate command to view the installed version of eisyui with its release notes
  24. Techman posted a topic in eisy-ui
    What's the SSH command to view the installed eisyui version
  25. If you click on 'My profile" can you add the UUID of the polisy in the "my preferred ISY" box
