Best way to completely redo ISY programming
That would work if he were just talking about programs. However, links reside in devices. Going back and forth between old and new updates would cause more problems than what he has now

Release 5.2.0 (RC3) - OUTDATED
No one was saying you're being a moron. You're attacking those who actually attempted to help you. No one knows who you are, what you know and don't know. Instead of simply saying no and moving on, they took the time to explain how things are set up on here to help you understand (included adding links). Instead of being grateful you attack them.

https://my.isy.io Pending Approval By Owner
That's not what I'm saying. I don't know because I don't use mobilinc or their portal. I've just seen many other posters in the past posting about 1 portal (and are adamant about it) then it turns out they were using the opposite of what they thought. I'm assuming you did select the portal in the approval tab as well

Unlink the "dedicated" off/on buttons on the 2487S from the internal switch
I'm not clear on the other motor as well. What kind of fan is it? Make/model

Unlink the "dedicated" off/on buttons on the 2487S from the internal switch
Is the red wire on the 2487s capped off? As mentioned in my previous reply; you CAN dim the fanlinc from the 2487s.

Did you tell them you wanted a refund or contact PayPal? Your experience is far from the norm in regards to how UDI has operated in the past with others (even going so far to remotely log-on to help people). There are also many who has mixed up portals thinking they paid for 1nwhen it was the other so it is something to look into

Via scene or program? Closet light switches off ONLY when room light switches off
You can do this via a scene however it will not be optimal. Add the switch and closet in a scene with the switch as a controller and closet as a responder. Then set the closet to be off. Anytime the room is turned off the closet will turn off too. You'll be able to turn the room on without turning on the closet. The downside to this way is that a double tap will turn on the closet light. Also if the light in the closet is on (someone in there) without the room light being on, it will turn off on them should the room light be turned on

Scene devices responding opposite
It sounds like you didnt configure the scene controller. One thing why your lights are not turning on in 4.5 seconds may be the bulbs themselves. If you are using LEDs this may be the culprit. LEDs generally have a harder time ramping up vs ramping down.

Schlage BE469ZP Options missing
What's your firmware and UI?

Unlink the "dedicated" off/on buttons on the 2487S from the internal switch
It sounds like you've connected the 2487 to the fanlinc directly which is the incorrect way to wire it when used in connection with the fanlinc. Hart2hart's explanation is what you need to do in order to accomplish what you're trying to do. Once re-wired, you'll be able to link the light to the buttons for control and control the speeds separately. You'll also be able to dim the fanlinc from the big buttons as well.

ISY portal on iPad etc.
Their focus is on what pays the bills. Every business is (even much larger corporations). This why you see new Samsung phones getting bug fixes when they first come out while bugs (such as the gps one) are still waiting for a fix 4 months later. Its not that the isy is nothing to them. Automation means alot to them which is why there is progress (especially from what Michel just mentioned about a developer). If a person has a job that will pay 5k but other jobs come along that will pay 30k. Which one would anyone take? Its not that the 5k job doesnt matter, just the higher paying jobs has the most influence. In fact, this diversity is what helps them help us. The additional income allows them the ability to expand the isy and do much more than they probably would be capable of....including keeping the isy (and other accessories) at a low price point.

Best way to completely redo ISY programming
I'm not sure what you're asking. If your system has issues now and you restore a backup after factory resetting and cleaning it, you're just putting the same bad stuff back into your devices. If you want to start over, commit to that and forget your old setup. When I initially set up an Isy, I will add my devices, name them, and and them to the rooms. Once done I create a back up. I save this as my clean slate so that if I ever need to start over, I can save alot of time on the initial portion. You can make a copies of the programs that you want to keep as well as scenes you want to recreate. Then factory reset your devices and isy

Release 5.2.0 (RC3) - OUTDATED
Since the official release shows up in the isy, I'm assuming users will still have to go through the migration process. If this is so, it might be good to have a warning or link to the forum about the process pop up prior to updating so that non forum users know what they will need to do once they update to avoid any surprises.

Release 5.2.0 (RC3) - OUTDATED
I can imagine. Zwave is painful for users so I can see it being much worse on your end

How do i use Wifi Plugs
What Asbril said.....you'll need Polisy in the future anyway for the nodeserver store

Copy 8 button keypad
To be honest I don't remember exactly where. It's been years since I used 4.0. Right click on your scene or controller. It's somewhere in there

Copy 8 button keypad
That depends on what firmware you're on. 4.0 there's a copy button in 5.0 there is none.

Congratulations!!!?

Copy 8 button keypad
If you're replacing the kpl with a new one you would do a swap https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:Replacing_a_Device

Door Deadbolt control, Schlage Wifi vs Z-wave
Nice article. Makes things look pretty locked down (which is good in a sense).
-
Door Deadbolt control, Schlage Wifi vs Z-wave
Is there an API for Yonomi? If so, maybe there can be a way via a nodeserver talking through them.
-
Door Deadbolt control, Schlage Wifi vs Z-wave
It doesn't hurt though I don't think it would change anything in the near future. They know and understand automation which is why they have devices for it). However, someone chose to make this closed off for now.

Nexlux WiFi Wireless LED Smart Controller Alexa Google Home
Since it works with the magic home app it might. You would need to use the magic home nodeserver

Context-aware Alexa with an ISY
Maybe that difference is why it doesn't work for you. We never change speeds so it being a switch works for me

Context-aware Alexa with an ISY
I use both Google home and Alexa in my house. Both are set up exactly the same way. I do control my lights with programs. I don't know if that makes a difference or not
