  1. Right now your best source would be The Smartest house which is selling it for $28.95, not sure what the shipping would be. UD has them for $32.00. Just make sure you get the ZST10 700 and not the 500 You should also buy this adapter otherwise the dongle will block the other USB slot.

  2. Clear your Jave Cache and applications then use this link for the ISY Launcher https://isy.universal-devices.com/start.jnlp On Big Sur, Admin Console is no longer a separate Window System Preference | General | Prefer Tabs - set it to "in full screen" (not "always") If you still have problems then try the fix below: Java applications are blocked by your security settings Close all your browsers Go to System Preferences | Java to get to Java Control Panel Click on Delete Files and make sure you check Applications Click on the Settings Button Make sure Keep temporary files on my computer is checked Click on the Security tab on the top Click on Restore Security Prompts and then click on Restore All button on the ensuing dialog Click on the Edit Site List Click on the Add button Enter https://isy.universal-devices.com followed by hitting the Return key on the keyboard. Accept the warning Click on the OK button
  3. Did you clear your java cache, including all applications, and then download a new version of the ISY LAUNCHER?
  4. Your errors appear to be related to your SD card. Power down the ISY, remove the SD card and clean the contacts with a soft eraser. If that doesn't resolve your issue, then you may have to replace the card 110012 SD DRIVE CONFIG FILE OPEN READ FAILED 110022 OPEN FILE FAILED
  5. I recently had an Insteon on/off module turn on without any user or program intervention. A few days later I experienced an all on event, where several of my older modules turned on. I traced the problem back to the (failing) on/off module. I tried a factory reset / restore but the ISY had difficulty communicating with the module. I replaced the module, and all my problems went away. The defective module was a hardware version 1.0 dated 2013
  6. I use their Multisensor 6 and Smart Switches. I've had only positive results with their devices and support. Their devices are end user firmware upgradeable which I think is a big plus. They're slowly upgrading their inventory to the series 7 chipset.
  7. Take a look at the Aeotec switch: Z-Wave light dimmer switch, illumino Dimmer Switch ‐ Aeotec If you have any questions their support team is very responsive.
  8. When you cleared your java cache did you also check the box to clear applications, this would have deleted the ISY finder from your desktop.
  9. I've been using the Venstar T7900 for years with no issues. It has built in wi-fi and API. Here's the link: https://developer.venstar.com/documentation/
  10. If you currently have Z-wave then another option is a Z-wave enabled smoke detector. First Alert Z-Wave Smoke Detector & Carbon Monoxide Alarm, Works with Ring Alarm, 2nd Generation - - Amazon.com
  11. Re: Zwave native links Shouldn't these links, for the Aeotec Multisensor 6, appear as controllers rather than responders?
  12. Try doing a factory reset on the Polisy. Make sure you PLM is not plugged in and that your ethernet cable is plugged into the RJ45 port closest to the DB9 connector with the other end plugged into your router. Using the end of a paperclip push it into the hole on the right front of the Polisy and follow the directions below. You'll need a DB9 to ethernet cable in order to interface the PLM with the Polisy. One came with you PLM, if you don't have it then you can buy one on Amazon Factory Reset Press and hold the button till all LEDs start blinking then release. This action resets the credentials, removes all configurations from Polyglot/Polisy, and resets networking.
  13. I'm not familiar with the MS II but is there an option to adjust the voltage that triggers the low battery notification? I use the older motion sensors and the low battery notification has never worked. I wrote a program that monitors the dusk / dawn signal, when that doesn't report I know it's time to replace the battery
  14. Take a look at this troubleshooting tip: INSTEON Random All On Events - Universal Devices, Inc. Wiki (universal-devices.com)
  15. I use the Somfy shades with the Zwave Somfy interface, It works flawlessly with the ISY. Somfy has both hardwired and rechargeable battery options
  16. Your migration shouldn't be an issue. Make sure you have an ISY backup before you migrate. You can always add Zwave to the Polisy later, it's just a matter of buying the Zooz 700 Zwave dongle and plugging it into the USB port
  17. The Polisy requires that you have a PLM if you're using Insteon. There is currently no migration option for Z-wave, so you would have to start from scratch. You should first update your ISY firmware to 5.016C. Read the update notes as you'll most likely have to rebuild some programs and scenes. Your current Z-wave system is irrelevant as you'll need a Zooz 700 series dongle for your Polisy Once you've got a stable ISY then you can migrate to the Polisy. The link below should provide answers to any questions you may have. https://forum.universal-devices.com/forum/164-polisy/
  18. The Z-wave migration option from the ISY to Polisy is not yet available, so you'll have to manually build your Z-wave network from scratch on the Polisy.
  19. After the update did you clear your java cache and its applications, and then download the ISY Launcher?
  20. Take a look at these threads:
  21. Increasing the hold time should correct the program not running.
  22. You're correct. Are you using Momentary or Latching in your I/O Linc to trigger your program? If you're using momentary then the Momentary hold time may be too short to trigger the program. Another possibility is that the wires going into the I/O Linc are not making a good contact, try tightening the screws.
  23. Being that the processor and memory in the Polisy is much faster than the ISY, try increasing your wait times and/or adding waits to see if that makes a difference.
  24. Take a look at this thread Don't use auto discover when you link it. Try putting in its address.
  25. Yes, but being that's it's RF only you should have a dual band device close by to insure that the signal gets onto the powerline. I don't think you can do a ISY migration to the 24487A which means that you will have to build you system from scratch so I would focus on trying to clear up the PLM issue first.
