PLM surge protector?
Often times surge protectors also filter line noise. Unfortunately line noise and Insteon signaling look a lot alike to filters. Your best bet is to try one and see what happens.

E-mail TLS 1.2
@JSchumann You will need to update your ISY994i to 5.3.4 which supports TLS 1.2. The 5.3.4 Update is now available for the ISY994 product. Notes: - SSLv3 is now disabled. All models now support TLS1.2 and high grade cipher suites - 4.1.1 backups may corrupt Z-Wave configuration in case they are restored. 4.1.2 and above releases fix this issue - See our Wiki for additional information (e.g. Program Variables) Please follow the upgrade instructions on the 5.3.4 page.

Original cable that came with PLM?
@Blackbird Wow that's insane. Here's a good post on how to build one from scratch. https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/35441-long-serial-cable-for-plm-works-great/?do=findComment&comment=331996 You really only need pins 1,7 &8.

Weird 3am stuff with a few devices
@JMoots I agree with @Techman you probably have a device that is creating a lot of electrical noise. I liked his idea of the individual device query and wanted to also point out the power of circuit breakers. You can cut power to individual circuits to facilitate narrowing in on the offending device. This is a labor intensive process and there are really no short cuts. You have to go device by device. It could still be something other than an Insteon device, but I'd check the Insteon stuff first as @Techman suggested. Anything that comes on around 3am is suspect. I once had a client with a pool pump that looked fine, smelled fine and ran just fine, but it was going bad and throwing enough noise into the system that when it started up around 5am each day it would ruin communications on the power line for an hour.

Looking for a FanLinc 2475F Schematic
@Bumbershoot I did! Thank you! I have actually been able to repair three over the last few months and have parts on hand for a half dozen more so I'm set for the moment, but I'm looking forward to I hope an updated version that doesn't use the low quality components that the current ones use. All the ones I've repaired simply needed a new triac or cap. I always replace all four triacs and all the caps when I update them.

IoP/Zooz support Zwave S2 security?
Neither the 300 or the 500 series z-wave board for the ISY994i supported S2 security. It may be that they were so old compared to the current 700 series spec that there wasn't a conflict with regards to S2 security and the Baldwin door lock. I'm just guessing. The 700 series Zooz dongle and the newer Polisy combination are aware of S2, but not fully compliant. The new Eisy or the Matter daughter card that will be available in the November time frame will be z-wave 700 certified and support S2 security.

Troubleshooting missing program triggers
@EricK If all your devices are Insteon, then I agree that the PLM is suspect. I would try doing a restore from the AC and see if that fixes your issues before going to far down the rabbit hole. Just for information, yes if you purchase a Polisy that will work with your USB PLM, but the Polisy is out of stock. In the November time frame the new Eisy should become available and that would be your best bet as a replacement for the ISY, but as I said let's try doing a restore on the PLM first.

How to update ZOOZ ZST10 700 stick
@asbril All the information for installing and using Simplicity Studio can be found in this thread. There's a lot of information and simplicity studio isn't as user friendly as UDI's AC, but it is what you need to perform a backup and restore. I'd read through the thread, then install Simplicity Studio, get logged in and then plug your Zooz stick into the computer you load Simplicity Studio onto. You should then have access to most of the menu items and you can just poke around. Specifically you are looking for the NVM Backup / Restore.

PLM occasionally “forgets” all of its links.
I'm sorry to say it really sounds like a HW issue. If you are comfortable with component level repair, you can try replacing all the capacitors. If not there is nilachidatasystems on Ebay that offers to repair PLM's. nilachidatasystems

Cannot get the start.jnip file to open
@jlcelliott It sounds like you've lost the file association for java script. The easiest way to fix this is probably to just reinstall Java. Java for Windows

How to adjust on level on 3 way switches?
@Blackbird Here's an example of a three way switch with 3 switches changing between 35% at midnight back to 100% at sunrise. The tricky part is that for each switch in the program you need to set the "Controller" and "Set" individually. I put in a ticket last year to have these all linked, but it was deemed a low priority so this is the only way I know to do what you want. Here is an example of one of the three switches in this program with the "Controller" and "Set" shown.

EZIO8SA no longer recognized?
@smorgasbord I may be mistaken, but as I recall the EZIO8S has an Insteon controller on board. It is designed to interface with a PLM not with another Insteon controller. Here's a link the Quick Start Guide: https://docs.smartenit.com/ezio/ezio8sa_quick-start.pdf

"This Version of the Admin Console is not compatible with the installed version of the ISY firmware" v. 5.4.3
@Andre Douyon This is most probably due to the older java applet being cached. Deleting Java won't be enough. you need to clear the java cache. Follow these directions: Clear Java Cache and then do this... Launch the 5.3.0 Admin Console and/or Dashboard by going to the following link: - https://isy.universal-devices.com/start.jnlp Once the start,jnpl file is downloaded, run it and you should be prompted to allow the java applet to run. If you aren't then you still need to clean up a previous install of java.

OpenWeatherMap PG3 on Polisy Stops After 1 Query
I'm also using OpenWeathermap and am not having any issue with the connected / disconnected status. You may want to copy your log file here so Bob can take a look at it.

Purple Air on PG2
Both the PG2 and PG3 node servers will need to be re-written to utilize the new API before they will work. Since PG2 is deprecated it's unlikely that will be fixed. At some point Bob may work on fixing the PG3 version, but he is doing about fifty different things at once, so it might take a bit of time.

WOL Address only first 6 values
WOL packets are layer 2, or broadcast traffic. So every device on the sub-net from which the packet was sent will see the incoming WOL packet. Since the WOL packet is addressed to one unique device via it's MAC address, only that NIC will reply. As long as both the originating device and the intended target device are on the same sub-net, there shouldn't be a problem with communications. Switches will pass the layer 2 traffic (broadcast) to all ports unless you have segmented the switch into layer 2 VLAN's. Most consumer switches don't do this. Some allow you to segment port's by layer 3 VLAN's, but not layer 2.

Siren Configuration
@cksedg Here's a link to the Manual. It's not very forthcoming as the siren was tied directly to the Smarthome phone app. I also know that UDI had to reverse engineer all support for the 2868-222. Smarthome refused to give UDI any information on the device. As I recall the 2868-222 may have been the straw that broke the camels back with UDI supporting future Smarthome products and a shift towards z-wave. 2868-222 Documentation I have also played around a bit with the 2868-222 and never had much success getting it to do the things I wanted it to. As I recall from my testing about a year ago, it is meant to be triggered by some other device; either immediately or on a delay, I never could get it to chime, only the siren would activate. As far as the all the other functions go I'd play with them and see if you can figure out how best to utilize them.

Connection PG3 Refused
@oneklakes It's not difficult, but you do need to know how to SSH to your Polisy. You can use the ssh command built into windows or use a utility like Putty. once you've logged onto your Polisy do the following. 1. Make sure your Polisy is up-to-date sudo pkg update && sudo pkg upgrade 2. Install PG3 sudo pkg install pg3 sudo service pg3 enable sudo service pg3 start
