  1. Your program will only run if the time is exactly 9:00 pm and the light is switched on at exactly that time. Change the first line to Basement Lights STATUS IS ON
  2. Some Z-wave devices tend to install nodes that aren't applicable to UD Controllers. I created a folder and moved those unused nodes into the folder to get them out of the way. When you migrated to the Zmatter dongle the Zwave prefix changes from ZW to ZY.
  3. I think the controller is able to buffer the commands, however i usually put a second or two wait time in between commands to allow a little breathing room.
  4. Probably best to submit a support ticket. I've never come across the "check log" entry and it's not in the list of error codes.
  5. I think the problem is that you have several conditions in your "Dusk Sensed" program so the next run time is not a hard number. Try deleting the first two conditions leaving only the Sunset condition and see if the next run time is then correct.
  6. My programs ran at the correct time. It appears that the UI sunrise / sunset display is incorrect.
  7. To factory reset the Z-wave dongle: In the admin console, click on Z-wave | Advanced | Factory reset Z-wave dongle
  8. There's no option to make that change. Maybe in a future firmware update.
  9. @Chris Jahn After the switch to PST my eisy sunrise and sunset display times are also off by an hour. My firmware is 5.7.0_5
  10. @mmb The Multisensor is fully compatible with the Zmatter dongle. Something you can try, Right click on the device, then click on "Z-wave", "Rewrite all device links" You can also try putting the sensor into linking mode then query the device, which should then display the battery level.
  11. Techman replied to dleduc's topic in eisy
    To access the eisy from your computer you need to use the admin console or the (free) UD Mobile app https://isy.universal-devices.com/start.jnlp
  12. Your PLM isn't able to communicate with the device in Patti's room. If you have a long extension cord try plugging the PLM into a different outlet. Either you have some noise on your powerline or some other issue that's interfering with the Insteon signal. Here are a few links to troubleshooting your issues: INSTEON: Troubleshooting Communications Errors - Universal Devices, Inc. Wiki (universal-devices.com) Can't Determine INSTEON engine - YouTube INSTEON Signal / Noise Troubleshooting - Universal Devices, Inc. Wiki (universal-devices.com)
  13. For the bedroom switch, put the event viewer into level 3, then do a restore device. Post the event log results. The green icon means that there are links that need to be written to the device. The red ! means that the PLM can't communicate with the device.
  14. Is the issue you're having with just the one switch, or multiple devices?
  15. "Cannot determine Insteon Engine" means that the PLM is unable to communicate with the device. The error could be due to an error in the address you've entered or a PLM issue, usually caused by noise on the powerline. Take a look at the device address as it's easy to confuse B and 8 You might also try removing power from the PLM and the eisy, then power up the PLM wait about 15 seconds then power up the eisy. Also make sure that the firmware on the eisy is up to date.
  16. Have you tried right clicking on a device then doing a restore device? If that doesn't work then it's possible that the ISY link tables are damaged or that the SD card is failing
  17. If you create a Topology report [ TOOLS, GERERATE TOPOLOGY] it will generate a list of all your installed devices.
  18. If you have on 56 links in your PLM, then the restore PLM procedure didn't fully complete. Did you follow the instructions in the attached file. Replace Modem.pdf
  19. If you named your devices ZW xxxx prior to migration, then when you migrate the device name will not change. When in the device's status window, the device ID should show ZY under the device name.
  20. I'm not aware of obtaining an earlier version of the launcher. The current version contains updates and bug fixes. Can you update your MAC to the current operating system version? Some of the older MACs can't be updated past 10.15.XX, in which case it may be time to replace your MAC. The following can be updated past 10.15.XX MacBook Pro: Early 2015 and later. MacBook Air: Early 2015 and later. MacBook: Early 2016 and later. iMac Pro: 2017 and later. iMac: Late 2015 and later. Mac Pro: Late 2013 and later. Mac Mini: Late 2014 and later.
  21. Your firmware and UI must be the same version. You need to clear your java cache, be sure to check all 3 boxes, and then download the IoX Launcher from here: https://isy.universal-devices.com/start.jnlp Once you install the launcher your UI and firmware will match, and you should then be able to change / edit your data.
  22. Internet Explorer was phased out by Microsoft and was replaced by the Edge browser. Download the edge browser and remove Internet Explorer which is no longer supported by most sites. Download Microsoft Edge
  23. From the Polisy user guide:
  24. This is how it should be written.. An else statement will only run if the IF statement is false. IF Status 'Second Floor / Bathroom Fan' is On Then Wait 5 minutes Set 'Second Floor / Bathroom Fan' Off Else
  25. Did you expand the main tree (eisy) before you attempted to drag the item?
