Can only launch the AC from LAN and no longer from Cloud.
I also can't launch the Polisy from the cloud. No error message.

ISY Finder works fine but can no longer start Admin Console
Glad you're up and running. If you have power issues in your area you might want to pick up a UPS and put the ISY, Router and Modem on it. The PLM should be plugged directly into an outlet not the UPS. The UPS should also have an A/C line filter between it and the outlet in order to filter out the powerline noise they create which interferes with the insteon signals

Try unplugging the power from the ISY, wait about 15 seconds then plug it back in and then try the admin console again

Can Polisy + ZMatter expose Insteon (via PLM) lighting as Matter devices?
In the recent Insteon zoom call they mentioned that they are planning on supporting Matter. They gave no other details. Being that current products, other than the Hub, cannot be field upgradeable, it might be relegated to the Hub or newly released products

Use of variable for light "ON" level illumination - question
For my lights, I use several scenes, each with different on levels, and call them up with a program. I've not tried your method, so not sure if it's viable. Under scene on levels, the only variable options I have are dates.

Can you post a copy of your program Is your variable state or integer?

edison style light bulb
Yes, assuming that the bulb is connected to an Insteon module or a Zwave module. The Polisy cannot control a load directly.

The Zmatter board is due to be released on 11/15. A version with more memory and storage may be forth coming after the initial release, but that could change. You can pre-order it here: ZMatter: Z-Wave+ & Matter Module for Polisy (Beta) – Universal Devices (universal-devices.com)

Polisy - Support thread for: PG3 v3.1.6 - v3.1.16 (December 9, 2022)
When I run UPDATE PACKAGES, the Polisy appears to be updating, but if I again run the update packages the Polisy again appears to be updating no matter how many times I run the update. PG3 did successfully update to 3.1.12

First Alert Smoke and CO2 Alarm--What does each node mean?
@BobM99 Many thanks

First Alert Smoke and CO2 Alarm--What does each node mean?
The ISY doesn't always recognize all the Zwave nodes from a device. What series Zwave dongle do you have? I wouldn't worry about the other nodes. What's the make and model of your smoke detractor as Iwas thinking of moving over to Zwave detectors.

What is the current software version for Polisy?
Current firmware is 5.4.4 On the configuration tab there are two update options, BIOS and UPDATE PACKAGES. if the update bios is not greyed out then you first need to update the bios then the packages
-
First Alert Smoke and CO2 Alarm--What does each node mean?
Are you using the Insteon Smoke Bridge? The only nodes that really matter are SMOKE DETECTED, CO2 ALARM and LOW BATTERY. I have the Insteon smoke bridge (2982-222), and my nodes are a little different than what you've posted, but basically the same. I'm not sure that the ISY would respond to the nodes other than the ones I've mentioned.

Dead ISY 994i Power Supply
Amazon Prime is showing October 28th as a delivery date for a 12 volt 2-amp power supply. The only other source I can think of is All Electronics in Van Nuys. http://www.allelectronics.com They might do an overnight ship. You might also send an email to UD to see if they will ship overnight. I believe they also ship out of Van Nuys. You can also check the Best Buy store in your area Note: UD recommends a 12v, 2 amp supply.

Trying to add 3rd KPL button to Garage Door, not working
The IOLincs are single band, powerline only, devices and are not as reliable as dual bank devices. The fact that you have pending writes to the devices means that they are not reliably communicating with the PLM. It's also possible that the garage door opener is creating noise on the powerline that's interfering with the Insteon signal. Take a look at this troubleshooting link. You won't have a reliable system until you resolve the communication issue. https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=INSTEON:_Troubleshooting_Communications_Errors I had to put a powerline filter on my garage door opener in order to get my IOLinc to work properly.

Trying to add 3rd KPL button to Garage Door, not working
Your screenshot show that you have writes pending. Right click on the device and then click on "Write updates" If the KPLs still don't update, then try a factory reset/restore device on the new KPL. It's also possible that the PLM is not able to communicate with the KPL. Let me know what happens after you try the above

It's remotely possible that the SD card is damaged. Also check your ethernet cable and try rebooting your router. Are you trying to access the ISY from the admin console?
