I've been running an isy994i for the past 14 years, using Mobilinc Pro for mobile access. My devices are Insteon only. I also use IFTTT with Mobilinc to control other things using variables. I'd like to move to the eisy, but I have a bunch of questions: I assume Mobilinc Pro will not work with the eisy. Is that correct? I assume I can always revert back to my isy994i/Mobilinc setup by simply plugging it back in if I run into configuration problems with the eisy. Is there anything that would prevent it? From what I read here, UD Mobile Portal works better than Mobilinc Pro. How much work will it be to make that switch for things like geofence variables? I use Alexa to control most of my Insteon devices. I believe that integration also relies on Mobilinc. How much work is it to migrate voice control to the eisy? Finally, if I choose to buy a eisy lite, what am I giving up vs. the R2? Any other questions I should be asking? Thanks in advance for any and all advice.

Is there a list of ISY compatible Z-Wave door locks? If not, are there specific brands or models that are known *not* to work?

Just ran a quick test, and you're right - that's the way it works. Thanks for the help!

I have Alexa integrated with my ISY - no problems. All works as expected. But I'm trying to add some functionality. I set up an Alexa group with one of my ISY programs included in the group. So when I say "Alexa, turn on <group>", the program runs. All good. Since that program is a lighting program, it sets things up exactly the way I want. However, if I say "Alexa, turn off <group>", nothing happens. I suppose this is expected behavior, but I'm not sure. Is there a way to have "Alexa, turn off..." run either a different program from "turn on", or run the same program with some variable difference so I can differentiate? Am I making sense?

That helps - thanks!

I need to make what a controller? The responder? How do I do that? I can only set it up as a controller or a responder.

I have 2 Switchlinc devices (2477S) set up in a scene to control one light. One of the two is wired to the load and is the responder, the other has no load connected and is a controller. If I turn the light on or off from the controller, all is well. But if I turn the light on locally at the responder, the controller switch does not indicate the on/off status of the load. How can I make the controller show the correct load status regardless of how the load is controlled?

Wanted to circle back on this since I finally found the problem. There was a moisture sensor in the air handler that was triggering and shutting off power to the thermostat. I replaced the moisture sensor with a float switch. Problem solved.

I have an Insteon 2441TH installed. Been working fine for the past year. The past week, it has shut down twice. This is what I see in the log. What caused it to shut itself down? Nothing programming is doing it. What do the error codes mean? Why did it set the set points at 60 and 80 at 3:37am? I have no program that does it.

Upgraded to the latest FW, and can no longer view log files. Throws an error: Couldn't open the Excel Macro /Users/myname/isy/UDReport.txt I tried deleting the isy directory under the (evidently incorrect) assumption that it would be recreated. It wasn't. Works fine in Firefox, not in Safari.

I understand that I can only set up one or the other. I currently use Mobilinc Connect on my personal system, but now I'm setting up a new system for my nephew, so I need to make a decision. What are the plusses and minuses of ISY Portal vs. Moblinc Connect? The most important feature is voice control of lights, thermostat, and door locks, as my nephew does not have use of his hands.

I should've known that. Thanks!

I set up an Insteon scene via ISY containing two switches. One of the switches is connected to a load, and was added to a scene as a responder. The other switch has no load connected, and was added to the scene as a controller. So both switches control the load - no problem there. When I control the load using the non-load switch, everything works as expected. However, if I control the load using the switch that's connected to the load, the other switch doesn't show the correct state of the load. The light goes on, but the controller switch doesn't *show* that the light is on. Is there a way to fix that?

Got it. Thanks!

I'm not confusing programs with scenes. I may not be articulating it well. I'm not using ISY scenes. Forget I ever said scenes. In a program, I'm sending an X-10 ON command to a device. That program status is "True". I never run the else clause in that program, so it always stays true. Is there a way to make that program false from another program?
