  1. Yes, USB 2.0 has a recommended maximum cable lenght of 15 feet. USB 3.x has a shorter recommended length of about 9 feet
  2. @DwayneA Next question. Is it possible within the UD Admin Console to replace a module into the same scenes and scripts? I desire to install the replacement IOLinc without rebuilding all associated scenes and programs Yes, use the "Replace Device" option in the right click menu of the device you're replacing. You'll first need to install the new device, but don't rename it. Final question (for today... 🙂). I have two 2443 Access Points (AP) in this house. In both cases they are in close proximity to 2486 Control Keypads and wireless motion detectors. Are the APs really required (the keypads are actually closer to the motion detectors)? How do I tell if they are actually doing anything (they appear to be totally idle - no LED activity at all)? You can try removing the access points, then use the 4 tap test, which also works on most insteon devices, (see attached file). If all the devices work without the access points then you're good to go. 4 Tap test.pdf
  3. Looks like the Filterlinc is available. For some reason it didn't show up on their product page, but it's on their store page which I overlooked..
  4. @DwayneA You can also try plugging your battery charger, or other offending devices, into a noise filter. Insteon use to have a Filterlinc but I don't currently see it on their product list. X10 has one that will probably work, but it's only rated at 5 amps (600 watts): XPPF Plug In Filter – X10.COM
  5. The IOLinc is a single band device (no RF) and as @IndyMike mentioned, it is susceptible to powerline interference. If you have a dual band plug-in device, try plugging it into the front of the IOLinc. If that doesn't help then try doing a factory reset / restore device on the IOLinc.

    If the address is unavailable your other option is to put the device into the linking mode, the controller will then see the address. You can do that without having to remove switch plates.
  7. It's not normal. It's best to submit a support ticket https://www.universal-devices.com/my-tickets
  8. EISY supports the UD Zmatter dongle (zwave, Zigbee, and Matter). I'm not sure it will support a 3rd party Zwave controller. Any certified Zwave device that measures lux will work with the zmatter dongle. I think the ZWA005 was discontinued, not sure if it's still supported.
  9. Try doing a restore device for (58.A0.82) You also need to set the on levels and ramp rate, within the scene, for each device in that scene. The on level and ramp rate for the switch, if you operate it outside of the scene, also needs to be set for the switch.
  10. It only took a few minutes to update, but if the UD server is busy then it might take longer.
  11. After I did the OS Upgrade to 13.2p9 I noticed that the admin console seems to be a bit more responsive. My program lists load faster, and the device query seems to run faster.
  12. Why not have a program set variables, one for armed stay and one for armed away. A program could look at the variables to determine the state of the system, and then reset the variable when the system is disarmed.
  13. @kzboray Send an email to Steve Lee at Insteon: slee@insteon.com He has been with Insteon for a long time and probably has the answers to your questions. I believe that the "all on" was an Insteon firmware issue not a hardware issue. If that's the case then it should make your project a lot easier to debug.
  14. If you have the Zwave 300 series board then you should install the 5.0.16c firmware as 5.3.4 is not compatible with the 300 series Zwave dongle. 5.0.16C (ISY994) - Last version to support Z-Wave 300 Series - Current Release Announcements - Universal Devices Forum (universal-devices.com)
  15. The device's firmware shows up in the device tree if you click on Network or ISY. I'm not sure what versions of a specific device's firmware removed the "all on"
  16. Techman replied to Steigs's topic in Insteon
    @Steigs You should also do a scene diagnostics, and post the results
  17. In the admin console, after setting the on value you need to click the "on" to the left of the level setting
  18. @WShellshear You might try clearing your java cache, be sure to check all 3 boxes, and download the IoX Launcher from here: https://isy.universal-devices.com/start.jnlp Did you follow the instructions for replacing a SD card? Are the leds on the front of the ISY properly displaying?
  19. Make sure that the antennas are connected to the correct mount. I use a short USB cable between the eisy and the zmatter dongle to eliminate any stress on the eisy USB port.
  20. Not sure exactly what the issue is that you're having. Is the 16GB card working as it should in your ISY, If not it wasn't programed properly.
  21. Right click on the light or the device you want to add to a scene, and then click on add to scene.
  22. @paul.rea You might have either an eisy firmware issue or a problem with the connection between the Zmatter dongle and the eisy. At this point it's best to submit a support ticket.
  23. @WShellshear Here's the instructions for replacing the card. You can use up to a 32Gb card. A high quality 16Gb card should be adequate. ttps://wiki.universal-devices.com/ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:Replacing/Formatting_an_SD_Card
  24. You should right click on the device and disable it otherwise the controller will attempt to access it. Any luck with moving the zigbee device closer to the EISY?
  25. If you have a firewall try disabling it. You can also try deleting the temporary files located at: C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Local\Temp Delete the following files, If that doesn't fix things then open a support ticket.
