I'm receiving "cannot communicate" message in admin console but devices work
Do you have the ISY994 or the Polisy? What version of the Zwave dongle do you have, 300, 500 or 700? What is the distance between the closest non-battery operated Z-wave device and your controller? Are you Z-wave devices plug-in or in the wall?

If the fluorescent tubes use a ballast, then it would be considered an inductive load. Some of the newer fluorescent tube replacements use the led technology.

ControLinc just clicks when pressed and spaz's out when you try Factory reset
Unplug it, wait about 30 seconds then try another factory reset, then a restore device. If that doesn't work, then it may have reached its end of life

Added First Z-wave - wow, lots of Z-waves!
The additional Z-wave nodes are due to an anomaly between the Z-wave device and your controller. As oskrypuch mentioned, create a folder and move the nodes you aren't using into that folder, that way you won't see them.

Help Please. Unable to link I/O device to IoP
Your IOLinc is a fairly recent version. Your hex address is clear, so there's no chance of any digits being misread. Delete the device from the ISY Do a factory reset on the device by unplugging it, then hold down the set button while you plug it in. After a few seconds you'll get a long beep, continue holding in the set button until the beep stops. In the admin console go to Link management, New Insteon device. type in the 6 digit hex address and click OK. The ISY should auto discover and install the correct device.

Sometimes you just end up with phantom nodes, if you find that you don't need them put them in a folder.

Need Help, Just updated Firmware on my ISY 994i Zw Pro from 4.9.0 to 5.3.4 and programs don't run.
First try rebooting the ISY. Did you follow the upgrade instructions? Upgrading to this version may require a lot of manual intervention including verifying scenes, programs and program settings are correct. In some cases it will be easier to rebuild your network.

Help Please. Unable to link I/O device to IoP
Did you do a factory reset on the IOLinc before you tried to link it? "Cannot determine Insteon engine”, means the PLM is unable to communicate with the device. If you linked it to the ISY using a different device type, there could be unforeseen consequences. Open/close sensor is a battery operated device and should not be used to link a hardwired device. What is the address of your IOLinc xx.xx.xx, as it's possible you may have typed in the wrong address. It's easy to misconstrue the 8 and B

What are all the extra devices?
Sometimes you end up with extra nodes when you install a new Z-wave device. It's an anomaly between the ISY and Z-wave devices. You can create a new folder, call it unused nodes, and park those unused nodes in the folder.

ISY994i zwave 500: NWI/NWE - not working. Does the repeater need to support NWI/NWE or is it transparent?
What is your ISY firmware and UI version? What z-Wave dongle are you using, 300, 500 I've found that the repeater should be about 20 feet from the ISY as the ISY Z-wave dongle doesn't have an external antenna which can reduce the coverage area of the signal. Not sure about the NWI/NWE option. You could send an email to Aeotec support, they are very responsive. Also make sure you have the latest firmware updates for you Z-wave devices.
