Thanks for your replies! It looks like I'll have to gather some additional information. The hard part is that it's for a house in Mexico where they don't always follow standard wiring conventions! I should have taken pictures of the wiring in both switch boxes, because now I can't remember exactly what the wiring in each box looked like.

I want to use Insteon switches to replace a traditional 3-way switch configuration. The problem I have is that one switch has a neutral wire but the other one does not. Is it possible to use a traditional Insteon dimmer switch (with neutral wire) and a 2-wire Insteon dimmer switch to create an Insteon 3-way switch replacement?

Yes, I perform a "Restore Device", followed by "Write Updates to Device". I can't get rid of the green 0101 icons, and now the individual buttons don't work either.

I'm still having problems with my RemoteLinc devices. Right now, the only buttons that are working are the All ON and All OFF buttons. The other buttons no longer control the lights they were controlling before. Any ideas on what to try next?

I was able to restore the two RemoteLinc 2 devices but regardless of where I was in my house, I was not able to restore the two RemoteLinc devices successfully. They still have the green 0101 icon next to them. One thing I noticed that was odd was when I did a Restore Device to one of my RL devices, I saw on the admin console that it showed Writing to Device on the other RL device, and then later it showed Writing to Device for the RL device I had selected. I wouldn't have expected this behavior. Shouldn't it just write to the RL device I had selected? Do you have any other ideas?

I replaced the PLM following your instructions and everything worked well except for my RemoteLinc and RemoteLinc 2 devices. Even after performing Restore Device these devices still have the 0101 icon next to them. Would you recommend a factory reset on these devices or is there a unique procedure for RemoteLinc and RemoteLinc 2 devices?

Paul, Thanks for your quick response. After running the Replace Modem steps, would you recommend following the steps to Restore Devices? I have several devices that are problematic and I was wondering if this step might clear up those issues. Thanks.

I have an ISY994i/IR Pro that I've been using for several years, but my PLM just died and I'm very confused about the exact procedure to replace it. Do I need to perform the "Delete Modem (PLM)" steps before I perform the "Restore Modem (PLM)" steps? Is there a place I can find all of the steps I need to perform listed in the exact order I need to perform them? This whole procedure is very confusing and I would appreciate any help you can offer me. Thanks.

I am using MobiLinc HD and the ISY Portal to communicate with my ISY. After updating my ISY to v4.5.1, I was having trouble syncing so I deleted my MobiLinc HD app and re-installed it. The problem I'm having now is configuring the account and password information. It says to use the password I used when registering the ISY Portal. Is this different than the actual ISY Portal Login? How can I find which password I used when registering the ISY Portal or how do I go about resetting it? Thanks!

Thanks, you've been very helpful!

No. Do I just run this one time after all stations have completed?

I'm trying to program my EZFlora to only water when needed. I have both the climate and irrigation modules. I'm currently using the value "Irrigation Reqt". However, I notice that this value slowly increases every day without ever decreasing. Is there a better value to key off?

Thanks for the ideas. I'll be testing them out this weekend.

No, that was not my intent. I'm happy to get advice or ideas from anyone with information to share regarding this topic.

Xathros, I set up my garage door controller following your excellent instructions and everything is working correctly for me. Now I would like to take it one step further. Is it possible using the ISY994i controller to write a program that would perform the following? Between midnight and sunrise, if my garage door has been open for 5 minutes, run the Garage-Open-Close program to automatically close the garage door. This may not be the right forum, but I would appreciate any help or suggestions you could offer me. I'm new to this and I'm trying to get up to speed as quickly as possible. Thanks!

Thanks for your informative and speedy responses!

Xathros, One more question, what is the difference between these two lines of code? i.LeakNotifySent = 1 i.LeakNotifySent InitTo 1 I'm new to this and just trying to get a better understanding. Thanks!

Xathros, Thanks for your help! I do have one more question for you. What do you mean by "run at startup"? Is that when the ISY program is started? Thanks again!

Here's the program that monitors the sensors: IF Control 'Water Leak Sensors / Main Water Line / Main Water Line-Wet' is switched on THEN Send notification to ..... I'm not sure how to get the information from the ISY log.

When testing a new Insteon Water Leak sensor that I just purchased, I set it on a wet sponge and immediately received 12 text messages before removing it from the sponge. My question is, how do I ensure that I receive a notification when it senses moisture without overwhelming me with messages?

Then the RemoteLinc 2 will behave the same way?

I've got a bedroom light that is controlled by a SwitchLinc and also a button on a RemoteLinc. These were linked using my ISY-994i/IR Pro and they operate correctly - each successfully turns on/off/dims the light etc. The issue I have is that if I turn the light on using the button on the RemoteLinc and then turn it off using the SwitchLinc, the status displayed on the ISY-994i/IR Pro still shows the RemoteLinc button as being "ON". Is there a way to configure this so that if the light is off, the status of the RemoteLinc button shows off also - even if the SwitchLinc was used to turn the light off instead of the RemoteLinc?

I cleared my Error log and rebooted my router. My ISY is connected directly to my router. I've got a Visio diagram of my network that I thought might help you to see what I'm doing wrong. However, you don't allow files with .vsd extensions to be uploaded. Is there a way to send you this diagram in an email? ISY Error Log.v3.3.10__Sun 2013.04.07 04.05.47 PM.txt

Here's the error log. ISY Error Log.v3.3.10__Tue 2013.04.02 07.03.20 PM.txt

I just purchased an ISY-994i/IR Pro that I'm in the process of setting up. When I tried to set up the email & text notification, I ran into the following problem. I can receive test emails in my gmail account and my work email account, but I don't receive them in my msn account (@msn.com). I don't get any error messages and it doesn't show up in my junk folder, it just disappears. Unfortunately, my msn account is my main email account. Can you help me with this?
