While I separate my off actions from my on, you can also do it in 1 program in addition to Mr bill's method by using or else. Or else wait 5 minutes and turn off lights
-
It's possible but would probably be better to fix the issues you're having. What's the UI of your isy

Getting Insteon Keypad Buttons to Trigger Programs
lilyoyo1 replied to dex's topic in New user? Having trouble? Start here
It would be nice but probably has limited ROI since one could simply manually factory reset the device and restore it (which should give better results). If a person has to do a full system that way, chances are they have bigger issues and should be seeking direct help from UDI. -
You don't have an upgrade option under help like the Isy
-
Have you tried putty and the information that Bumbershoot provided to see the os that you're on?
-
Existing setups still work. New setups do not. New setups require the home assistant api

Z-wave scenes compared to Insteon scenes
lilyoyo1 replied to SSchmidt's topic in New user? Having trouble? Start here
I'm not going to rehash the differences since there are at least 2 dozen posts chronicling the differences over the past year. I've linked the most recent one from last week to help you out. -
No there is not. At most you can import other linked devices as you add devices to the Isy. This method would be the fastest in getting devices into the isy. With that said, most who go this route end up with issues as well as spending more time trying to clean things up than they would've had they factory their devices and set them up 1 at a time with s clean install

Looks like the same link used for developers from the Polisy page. Either it wasn't removed by accident or they forgot to embed the link. @Michel Kohanimwould be able to fix it either way
-
You didn't link to the specific statement so i can't be certain what you're talking about. The only discount I'm aware of that sounds like the statement you made is for developers to help set them up to develop node servers for the isy

Restored PLM now scenes are failing
lilyoyo1 replied to atmarosi's topic in New user? Having trouble? Start here
It's not a prompt. You have to choose it under the file tab like you do with restore plm -

Did you restore PLM AND choose restore devices. Many people skip the last part -

Try restore PLM and restore devices. You could also try to update each program. Click on a line, click update, and save -
Z-Wave Switch not triggering program
lilyoyo1 replied to Old Surfer Dude's topic in New user? Having trouble? Start here
What's happening when you try it? Isy firmware and UI? What does the Isy show when you turn the switch on? Did you set the event viewer to level 3 and see what commands are being sent when turned on? Not all zwave devices are the same. Some can use control as the trigger while others will require status. Depending on what the event viewer returns, it may use hail so you'd need to set that up -
Most likely it's a backup/restore situation

As already stated, all of these questions are easily found by reading the latest posts from Michel in addition to the other posts throughout the forums in addition to a quick internet search on Matter so I'm going to skip over them. Someone else can rehash if they choose to. Matter isn't necessarily the future. All systems will still have their pros and cons. Using polisy or eisy, will provide you with the options of using everything. To me, if you currently have polisy; the only reason to choose eisy is because you prefer that over your polisy and costs are irrelevant. Not many (if any) are close to maxing out what their polisy is capable of so having eisy is more of a want than a need. I'm holding out for eisy because I prefer that. Not because I need it but because I want it. I may get the dongle for my test polisy at some point but it's not that big of a deal since matter isn't it to test stuff with yet. I do not need the zwave benefits at this time. For those who do not have polisy- the eisy, would make more sense- especially since it'll be hard to get polisy.

The all on/off does exactly that. It sends a broadcast command of on/off to every zwave device which supports that feature. It is a deprecated feature so many devices do not support it. I don't use the app so i can't help you with those questions. Since I don't use the app, I don't know if the all on/off command would be for any device type that's part of the scene..
-
Uses zwave associations to set scenes. Google zwave groups/associations for more info. Yes, the new board is capable of ota updates
-
What specific questions do you have? The webpage you linked to is pretty self explanatory about what it is. Once you receive the unit, you'll get specific instructions on how to hook it up to your Polisy. There are 2 separate boards. An internal and external board. The only board currently is internal which is what you purchased. https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/37523-matterz-zmatter/page/4/#comment-347794
-
It'll be a software update.
-
Very first post on the channel has information on how to confirm as well
-
It doesn't make sense for 2 separate boards that accomplish the same thing so I'm inclined to believe it's a single external USB drive for both polisy and wish. This is especially so since the polisy drive works with eisy.
-
You're welcome. Anytime. Theres an internal and external board for Matter
-
I'm not sure if the Zooz stick works with eisy so that would be the first/main thing. If it doesn't then it's worthless with eisy. Since other boards besides zooz, do work with polisy there's a chance that it will. Besides the differences that you've stated, you would be limited to what you currently have with zwave. That means no ota updates via the Isy. You could still update your devices; you'd just have to put your zooz stick into your computer and use other software. You will not receive s2 (if that matters). The main benefit of the new board for you would be the ability to use direct associations to create your zwave scenes. Also, Michel has stated, all new features will come to the new board so if you stick with Zooz, you'll be limited to what you do now Eisy is a whole new system that shares the same external adapter as Polisy. Think of it simply as Polisy 2.0
