Does Polisy need internet access? Or a paid membership account?
The Polisy which is an updated replacement for the ISY does not require a membership or incur any fees if you use it on your LAN. If you want remote access via the internet then you would need a Portal membership account.

Adding Insteon LampLinc 2456D3: Cannot Determine Insteon Engine error
If you manually, or tried to, link to another device without using the ISY then you'll have link tables in those devices that shouldn't be there if you're using the ISY as your controller, so it's best to then factory reset those devices to clear their link tables.

Polisy/ISY/Insteon/Z-wave question
Indeed, they're sold out. Looks like someone picked them all up shortly after I posted that they were available.

Possible Z-Wave board failure?
The HEX address for the Insteon devices is assigned by the manufacturer. The Z-Wave devices do not have a unique address. The ISY will assign the address at the time it's installed which is why you should rename it at the time of installation, however the address the ISY assigned to it will continue to appear in the topology report and will also appear in the ISY device status window

Possible Z-Wave board failure?
On the devices with the exclamation marks, right click and click on write updates to device, if that doesn't work then try "restore device". If the device is a battery powered device then you'll need to put it into the linking mode first. When you say hex numbers are you referring to something like ZW005? If not give an example. All Z-wave installed devices will initially show up as ZW001...... etc. You need to rename them when you install them so you'll know what they are. Under files | tools, you should run the "Generate Topology" report which will give you a wealth of information about your devices.

Hard to say, sometimes the link tables get corrupted due to power line voltage fluctuations or noise on the powerline. Glad you're squared away.

Help please!
In the Admin console, do a restore device on the Kitchen Table Chandelier switch and the two other switches.. Your link tables may be corrupted and the restore device should correct it. Another possibility is that you have noise on the powerline that's interfering with the commands. Are the recessed lights you're trying to control low voltage or ??

ISY on Polisy v5.2.0 Is Now Available
Sometimes when installing Z-wave devices you'll end up with extra phantom nodes. I just create a folder and move those nodes to the folder and ignore them. Not sure exactly what your configuration issue is. You could be entering an incorrect value. When you do enter a value be sure to click in the "set configuration" button to the left
