Disregard. Got it fixed! It only appeared that the only thing that showed up was the heartbeat, but the status was actually there- just under a different name. I renamed it and updated my rules, and all is good now.!

I'm not a new user, but I might as well be. I'm having rookie trouble. For a while now I have been trying to link Zigbee open/close sensors to my Eisy, but each brand I try has different issues, so I though I'd try a sure thing- the Insteon 2843 open/close sensor instead. When I try to link it, auto-detect seems to think the device is a 2421 TriggerLinc V4.0. All I get is a heartbeat- no status info. I tried removing that device from the system and re-linking it, but instead of allowing the system to auto-detect, I selected the 2843-222 from the drop down menu. Once I put the device in linking mode and started the linking process, it changed back to "2421 TriggerLinc". How can I resolve this? Thanks for any suggestions! -Rick

Update: The sensor I am trying to add is a Sercomm SZ-DWS08(N), and apparently it makes my Eisy go nuts every time I try to pair it. Time to abandon this sensor and try something else. BTW- I did try factory resetting the sensor, but it didn't help. I am looking for a Zigbee door/window contact that has a reed switch (instead of a hall effect sensor) inside. The reason I need one with a reed switch is that I will be hacking it to attach wires so I can connect it to a relay contact on my Generac generator so I will get notification when the generator is running. Can anyone recommend a Zigbee contact that will work? Thanks. -Rick

....But this is Zigbee, not Zwave. I don't have the menu option to exclude a device.

Thanks, but since the new device does not show up, how can I do that?

I Have an Eisy with the Zigbee dongle. I had modified a Zigbee door contact to notify me when my generator is running. The door contact failed after working for a year, and I attempted to replace it with a similar one. When I tried to pair the new contact, my Eisy seemed to lose its mind. It kept interviewing non-existent Zigbee devices and I couldn't make it stop. After 20 minutes or so I rebooted the Eisy. It shows a couple new Zigbee devices (that don't actually exist), but my new device is not in the list. What happened? How can I fix this? Thanks for any advice. -Rick

Aidot does offer matter sharing, but only to other users of the Aidot app. Google Home and Smarthome will both require that I install a matter hub. I thought Eisy would serve as a Matter hub. Will Eisy eventually support adding Matter devices without having to add another hub or gateway? I'm confused.

Good catch! I had missed that IPV6 was required. Got it turned on now, but I'm still getting "Could not add Matter Device. Bluetooth Unsubscribed. 500" I don't have Google Home. I can successfully add these smart plugs to the Aidot app (from their manufacturer). I did reset the plugs to factory default before trying to add them to the Eisy.

Android. It's a Google Pixel 7. I did upgrade to 5.9.1.18, but no joy. Looking forward to getting this working. I really need to be able to control a few devices via Wifi instead of PLC or Insteon's mesh RF system. We've got a big piece of property and our Wifi network has outdoor repeaters.

Last week I tried to pair a Linkind Smartplug LC09003-PLUG-US-4 and I got this error message:. Could not get Matter QR Code rendezvous Type for MT:4Q0002:E15S60F76G00. 500 At the time I was on 5.9.1.7. I upgraded to 5.9.1.17 and tried again. I thought for a minute that it was going to work, but UD mobile finally gave me the error message: "could not add Matter Device. Bluetooth Unsubscribed. 500". Any idea what it is telling me?

I wonder if Pushover might be the solution. Look here: https://pushover.net I am using it to send me text messages from Eisy when my generator is running. -Rick

Similar problems here. I got a pack of four Linkind Smartplugs LC09003-PLUG-US-4. When I try to add them by scanning the QR code with UD mobile, I get: Could not get Matter QR Code rendezvous Type for MT:4Q0002:E15S60F76G00. 500 Hopefully somebody will straighten it out soon....... -Rick

That makes a lot of sense I didn't know that. I just replaced the Zigbee smart switch with a different brand and all is good now. Thanks for the help!

it looks like this is an issue with Wooley smart plugs. Not the fault of Eisy. Now that I know this- is there a way I can write a program so if a scene is switched on, to send the "on" commend every 5 minutes or so? I thought it would have been easy, but under the "if" section of code I can check a number of things, but I don't see a way to check to see if a scene is turned on or not. Am I missing something obvious? -Rick

I got the bookcase moved so I can see the Zigbee device. It's a Woolley SA-035-10A-ZB: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805874315420.html It also has the number BSD17 on it. There's nothing in the instruction sheet that indicates a default timing function. Any thoughts? Thanks.
