You're not supposed to unzip the file. Simply download it, go to your isy and follow the upgrade steps.

I hardwire everything that I can. Like Tech man said, It gives you the most stable connection

Unless you see a statement from Michel or any other UDI employee, all we can do on here is speculate as Brian has already alluded to in his original statement as well as his follow up to your response. Michel has stated the zmatter board is zigbee based and it will support Zigbee 3.0. As already stated by other members here, zigbee is a mess. Anyone can use the technology however they please. Because of that, it can potentially be a crapshoot whether or not something works with it and what features are supported even if it does work. For example, the hue bridge will allow you to add some devices to it for control. However, its usually basic on/off control while other capabilities are left out such as color changing capabilities.

Do you mean isy? Eisy is brand new

See above your post

Never have I said I was a spokesperson for them. I've just learned to use my brain and im willing to go to the source vs coming up with the most ridiculous thing I can think of.

and any of your posts does? Last I checked, the op posted about eisy NOT the zmatter module.

When did UDI say it was unobtainable? Anything said on here is pure speculation on memebers. Companies run out of product regularly.

You may have to remove and re-add to see it as a dimmer. Historically, we've had to remove devices that were already in the isy once firmware updates added new attributes

If you're satisfied with operating your house the way you currently do then you pg3x would'nt be of interest. If you want the benefit of integrating your devices into 1 ecosystem in order to automate and integrate with other devices then it becomes a necessity

As long as you use the zwave only firmware on your isy and disconnect your plm from it, both can run at the same time

Their new line can be upgraded. During testing they took advantage of it.... we'll see how often it's used now that it's in the wild

It couldn't be done with the isy so i assume it would be the same with the eisy. You may be able to add the eisy as a secondary controller

Other than googling your question and sifting through the results, there isn't a single source that's readily answers what you're asking. In regards to why some mfg have codes and others don't comes down to the generation of the devices (ie: 700 vs 300) and whether they choose to implement it or not. Only the mfg. can answer that last one

He's no longer maintaining this nodeserver. You'll want to contact Bob @bpwwer

Couldve reversed engineered it which is something udi said that they would not do

I've had test devices (alpha/beta) running for the last few years (prior to covid) now without any issues. Historically I haven't had any issues with insteon failures and it's a small sample size but so far I must say I'm pleased.

Believe that if you want. They've come out with new product that supports Google since Google has implemented their changes. It's one hell of a coincidence that once their dispute got heated and new products were released, it became an issue. Besides that, If it were that hard, their other speakers wouldn't run it nor would other technologies use it either.

They didn't. They're in a patent dispute

It can be manually turned on/off from the isy but no status unless queried. You can manually link the devices but if memory serves correct, you can't link via the isy.

They need to be linked together using your controller.

Then he'd have to read...i guess the date being older than the 5.3.4 didn't help either...

UDI hasn't said anything about eisy being capable of being powered by poe

Does your firmware and UI match? How are you attempting to add step by step? Are you getting any messages?

He said pg3x supersedes pg3x and pg3x will be deprecated. Pg3 superceded pg2 which is why it currently runs on polisy
