I'm sorry not sure what this means. I'm new at all this and knowledge is limited. I was able to do it for my ELK M1 but I'm nit sure what you are referring to. Hope you can break it down for me please I'll try. I don't know specifics on your addressing (other than what was posted above) - or the specific operating system in use (assuming windows - but exact procedure and terminology varies with edition). I'll try to keep it generic... Your PC is probably getting an IP address from your new DHCP service (running on your new router) that is giving it an IP address that cannot connect to your ISY (which has a static address on your old network). You need to (temporarily) change your PC away from DHCP and, instead, assign it a static IP address in the range of your old network. So, let's say your old router was 192.168.0.1 and you set ISY to 192.168.0.2 - you should (temporarily) change your PC from 'Automatic' to use something like 192.168.0.3 (just make sure it does not conflict). For the 'Subnet Mask' put '255.255.255.0'. Do not worry about the 'Default Gateway' or 'DNS servers' for the temporary step. Your PC will lose access to the Internet during this temporary step. Now - connect to the ISY with your browser on it's IP address and change it's IP from (in my example) 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.1.2 - and the 'Default Gateway' to '192.168.1.1' from '192.168.0.1'. You will likely need to change the DNS address as well. When you save, ISY will reboot and you wont be able to access it again. Please ensure you map the made-up addresses I gave here to your actual situation! Then - simply change your PC back to 'Obtain address automatically' again - and you should be up and running again on the new subnet. you mention I will lose internet connection. So how will I connect with my ISY?

sorry my error, its a hard address

DHCP but I have no way to connect to it. What can I do?

I changed my router and now I could no longer open the ISY. Could it be the IP address is not recognize by my new router. It looks like my new router use IP address 192.168.1.XXX and my old one was 192.168.0.XXX. Could this be the reason of my issue? Is their a way ti solve this without performing factory reset.

Hi everybody, I just installed a new router, Asus RT-N66U, and not I could no longer access my ISY from my PC. Can anybody help me troubleshoot. Does anybody know what needs to be done to fix this issue. Its driving me crazy Thanks

Hi everybody, Not sure if anybody can help but here is my question: I'm currently using Venstar T5800 as a thermostat. I would like to add the skyport device to my thermostats to gain control from a distance however, I want my ISY do the controlling. Can ISY be programmed with the Venstar T5800 using the skyport accessory? Thanks

The front stop and X-mas tree are devices. If they would be a scene they would be connected to another device right? Imgoo looking at the program summary and dont see it going to false

This is my front spot program If On Sun, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu From Sunset + 42 minutes To 11:03pm (same day) Or On Sat, Fri From Sunset + 46 minutes To 11:37pm (same day) Then Set Front Spot On Send Notification to email XXX with content XXX Else Set Front Spot Off My X-Mas Tree program is as mentioned in my first post. Does anybody see what may be the problem??

the spots didn't turn on or off. Is that what you mean? Any suggestions how to write the rule?

Front Spot are my front lights that turn on at different time on different days. Those work properly had the rule for a while. My goal is for my X-Mas tree to turn on after the front spot turn on at a random time within 10 minute. I also want my X-Mas tree to turn off at a random time within 10 minutes when my front spot turn off.

Hi guys, I'm having an issue with one of my holiday light program. The lights keep going on and shutting off. What am I doing wrong? If Front Light Spot light program is true Then wait 10 minutes (random) and turn on X-Mas tree Else Wait 10 minutes (random) and turn X-Mas tree off

thanks everybody for your patience and help. Enjoying the learning. I wish I could find something I can read that would accelerate my learning and I wont really need to bug you all

cool perfect it works. Thanks everybody for your input. I do have another question about writing rules. I have the below program, anything wrong with it? If Program Dark Outside is true Then Run program Christmas Tree (if) Else Set Christmas tree off

Thank you for the feedback and help. I'm having issues write the rule with 2 rules as per your example. Does the below sound right? If : Program «Dark outside » is true (program outside is: If between midnight and 6am) And ELK zone “patio door†is open And balcony light is off And pool house light are off Then Run program “pitbull in the yard†(Else path) (pitbull in the yard is, Else: open balcony and pool house lights) 2nd rule This is where I’m confused. Does anything look at our place so far?

This is the rule I programmed If: Program "Dark Outside" is true and ELK Zone "Patio" "physical Status is open and status "pool house" is off and Status "shed spots" is off Then: Set "pool house" on set "patio"on Else: wait minutes set "pool house" off set "balcony"off

Having a trouble setting this up. Made some comments directly on the above example. Thanks in advance for your help

what do you mean by: then Run second program (then path)

Hi everybody, I'm trying to set up a rule to turn on my backyard lights when the patio door opens to let the dog out. I'm able to have the lights turn on when the patio door open to let the dog out but I would also want then to close when I let the dog back in. If I tell the ISY to have the light open for 10 minutes after the door opens when I let the dog back in and open the door again it will start a new countdown. Is it possible to have something in the rule that would not start a new countdown for when I open the door the second time to let the dog in? This is what I have for now If Time is sunset +1hour Or Time is Sunrise - 1minutes And Elk Zone Patio Physical Status is Open Then Set Balcony light On Set pool house On Else Wait 12 minutes Set Balcony lights Off Set pool house lights Off

Ok so I was able to input my email information to be able to have the ISY generate emails. The issue I encountered now is that for some reason I don't get all the email I plan to get. I set up a few test rules to test if everything is working properly. Basic rules such as, if front door physical status is open, email so and so. I did this for several doors but some always work and some work a few times. Is this normal? Why would so events not spark an email?

Yes the Default is selected. Ok, so I added my own email information and it now works. I now receive emails from the ISY. Is their a difference in using these different approach or does it come down to a preference? Is one method more reliable? Thanks for your help

Hi everybody, I recently updated my ISY-994 from version 3.2.6 to version 3.3.8. With the 3.2.6 version I started having issues, to be more specific my ISY was not sending emails anymore for some reason. I updated to version 3.3.8 hoping the problem would be solved but unfortunately it is not. Even when I try the test button it does not work. If I try to send a text message that's no problem. How do I solve this issue? Why did it stop all of a sudden. I was under the impression the ISY was a reliable source for sending emails? The IP address indicated in the Network Settings is the same as indicated in the help section of the ISY. The Subnet Mask address is 255.255.255.0 and the gateway and DNS are the same (found by performing "ipconfg" method). The Http port is 80 and the Https port is 443. How do I fix the issue?
