Installation instructions?
Just finished installing the Zmatter board. When installing the antenna connectors on the Polisy case place the serrated washer on the inside and the split locknut on the outside under the nut. Once the nut is tightened down the antennas won't move. You might have to rotate the antenna connectors when inserting them into the Polisy lid, they definitely fit without doing any modifications to the lid Connecting the antenna leads to the Zmatter board once the board is installed is somewhat difficult, as the Zigbee lead barely makes it to the board. It's probably best to connect the antennas to the board before inserting the board. I started fresh and removed my Zwave devices and the Zooz dongle before the installation. After the installation I installed a few test Zwave devices without out issues. For now, you just get the basic Zwave options. Looking forward to future firmware updates with the enhanced Zwave features.

Message from Insteon 11/23/2022
Hello, I wanted to take a moment to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving! I know I speak for everyone at Insteon when I say how thankful we are for all of the support we have received since we acquired the company back in June. From the kind words in handwritten notes to valuable constructive criticism and questions on Zoom webinars, we take it all to heart and appreciate it. As we head into this holiday season, we are not slowing down. We have more product on its way. We have more updates to the Director app coming soon. We will continue to keep this momentum going. So, again - thank you. Ken CEO Insteon Technologies Insteon Technologies 4790 Irvine Blvd. Suite 105-665, Irvine, CA 92620

Practical limits of Z-wave network?
Actually, the Betamax format was superior to VHS. VHS won due to marketing and politics.

Practical limits of Z-wave network?
Each Z-wave controller can support 232 devices. The Insteon protocol is superior to Z-wave on many fronts. Here's a Q & A for Z-wave Z-Wave FAQs (clarecontrols.com) Advanced Z-Wave Concepts (clarecontrols.com)

New PLM Q2 2023
From Insteon Support "There is a new PLM in development like the one shown in the FCC database. The enclosure is a different design than the On/Off Modules. We expect that the new PLM to come to market in Q2-23" This could be the PLM that was previously approved in the FCC database as the 2234-222. Currently there are no further details

My last PLM, may it Rest in Peace
Here's the response from Insteon Support regarding the PLMs that are due out in Q1 2023. Do they contain higher quality capacitors than the previous versions? Yes, these models will contain higher quality capacitors and fixes to the circuits that made the original capacitor fail. These changes were made in 2016-2018 and will continue in the newly-made units. Any improvement in the interface, link storage etc.? The USB version is unchanged. The Serial model had some updates in 2016 to be more robust with host interfaces

@larryllix You should forward your picture and comments to Insteon support. I've also had the plastic enclosures break down on several plug-in modules

Zooz range?
Try doing a "Synchronize Nodes" from the admin console Synchronizing ensures that the ISY and the Z-Wave network have the same device information for a node.

Going back to INSTEON
The error message means that the PLM is unable to communicate with the device Verify that the address is 18.73.E2. The 8 can sometimes be confused with a B If the device address is correct, then try moving the lamplinc closer to the PLM

Zooz range?
The ISY 500 Zwave controller has an effective range of about 25 feet. Putting a repeater about 15 feet from the ISY should help. Being that the ISY Zwave antenna is inside the enclosure its range is somewhat diminished. You should mount the repeater as high up as possible and away from obstructions. You should also keep the ISY away from obstructions and other RF devices that could possibly interfere with the Zwave RF signal. Keep in mind that any Zwave 700 devices will communicate with the ISY as if they were 500 series devices.
