Migrated to eisy - from/to programs not working
@JWBDolphins It's possible that during the migration some of the program data got corrupted. Open a program that isn't working correctly and change some of the data, save the program, then go back into the program and change the data back to what you want. Be sure to save the program, then make an eisy backup.

Adding 2843-222 Open/Close Sensor to EISY
You really only need the two nodes, open and heartbeat. If the sensor isn't open then it's closed. However, in the eisy if you look at the options for the open close sensor you'll see the option for the close node (2 nodes). It's also possible that insteon, in the current sensor firmware, eliminated the close node.

Access One Button On a 8 Button Keypad
I'm not familiar with Mobilelinc but it sounds like the button was added as a responder instead of a controller. Try deleting the button from Mobilelinc and then adding it back. as a controller

Motion Sensor trigger lights 100% day, 40% night
Glad you got it resolved. The theory for changing the IF clause is to save resources. The way you have it set up the timer program is running for 12 hours, the other way it would run only at the selected times.

Motion Sensor trigger lights 100% day, 40% night
Try changing your IF clause in your program to: In the THEN clause Use ADJUST SCENE to change the ON Level of the light in your scene Let me know if that works

Can you post screenshots of both your scene and your program

Isy (5.0.16) Died. I want to migrate to a used EISY
@GDavis01 Your problems may have been caused by using an older ISY backup that wasn't compatible with the EISY. Going forward it's a good idea to do a backup anytime you make changes. The current version of the backup program only takes a few seconds to complete.

Program Icon Color
@elite-rob You either have to put all the lights in a scene and have the "THEN" clause turn off the scene or, list each light in the THEN clause of your 2:00 am program A green bar to the left of the program would indicate that the "IF" clause was true and that "THEN" cause ran. A red line indicates that the "IF" clause was false and the "ELSE" clause ran. To test your program, right click on the program and run the "THEN" clause, do your lights turn off? Note: your "IF" clause will only be true exactly at 2:00 am

What steps to do a clean EISY Install?
@GDavis01 Factory reset PLM Remove PLM from power, hold down the set button and continue to hold down the set button after plugging in, the PLM will beep, hold the set button in until the beeping stops ------------------------- Factory Reset EISY Click the button ten (10) times Please wait 5-10 minutes after factory reset before attempting to reconnect to system. If System is not found by IoX Launcher after the wait period please reboot system by clicking the button five (5) times and waiting two minutes for system to come online. Note: after a factory reset the user name and password reverts to admin/admin After you reset the EISY log in from the admin console and run update packages, don't touch anything until the update completes and you see a notice to reboot.

Removing Device From Folders Prior To Using Replace
@johnjces If the keypad itself is located in a subfolder in your device tree you'll need to move it out of the subfolder. No need to touch any of your scenes. Sounds like the triac in the KPL got fried. Be sure to fix the light socket before you replace the KPL. After the replacement do a EISY backup

AC won't launch from Iox Launcher. Win 11
Yes, you can manually delete everything in the temp folder, first close all open programs then delete the folder contents. To make it easier, I put a shortcut to my temp folder on my desktop
-
AC won't launch from Iox Launcher. Win 11
If you have a firewall program such as Norton, it periodically deletes all the files in the Windows temp folder. The next time you access the eisy via the Admin console the "state" files are recreated, which could be why you're up and running again

AC won't launch from Iox Launcher. Win 11
@TriLife In Windows 11 search for a folder called "temp" In that folded you'll find the files that @Geddy mentioned (see attached screenshot) They're all temporary files and can be safety deleted

AC won't launch from Iox Launcher. Win 11
@TriLife I'm running Windows 11 with all the latest windows and java updates and the admin console works without any issues.

2486 8 button dimmer issue
You may have a bad connection on the hot lead of the KPL You can also try doing a factory reset on the 2486 by pulling out the set button, then pushing it in and holding it in, the KPL will beep, continue to hold the set button in until the beeping stops. If the reset was successful the load on the KPL will turn on

2477S on/off; EISY not updating status after linking
@jukeman A restore device writes the link tables to the device not the PLM A restore PLM writes all the link tables stored in the EISY to the PLM (not to the devices). You can verify/compare the link tables in a device by clicking on TOOLS | DIAGNOSTICS | SHOW DEVICES LINKS TABLE. After the table populates click on "compare" which will compare the links stored in a device with the links store in the EISY. If you have a mismatch then do a restore device.
-
2477S on/off; EISY not updating status after linking
If it worked after a restore device then it means that the link tables in the device were incorrect. A restore device writes the link tables that are stored in the eisy back to the device. When you added the device you may have had a communication issue, i.e. noise on the powerline or poor communications between the PLM and the device that corrupted the device link tables.

Admin Console (LAN) Doesn't Load
@smarthome_newbie Before try the steps below, did you clear your java cache , checking all 3 boxes, then then download a new IoX Launcher? ---------------- If you have a later model ISY994 the SD card can be removed from the front without opening the case. Remove power from the ISY then push in on the SD card and it will pop out. Clean the contacts on the card with a soft eraser and then reinsert it. Take a look at this link: https://wiki.universal-devices.com/ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:Replacing/Formatting_an_SD_Card

@noobmuch Do you have an active UD portal account? Are you trying access the ISY via LAN or Remote using UD Mobile?

Upgrading from ISY994 to EISY | Will 2414U PLM work?
@Turtle Any plug-in dual band module will act as an access point, i.e. LampLinc or On/Off Module. The advantage is that you get both an access point and a module that will also control a load.

cant determine insteon engine
If your previous switch was powerline only that would explain the marginal communications. The newer swirches have improved hardware and updated firmware.
