There's a link embedded in my post. That's why the word adapter is underlined

He doesn't need that if he has his cable. He just needs an adapter.

It was mentioned earlier this summer (and quite frequently over the last few months with no date given. As previously explained a couple of times now on this post, they were no longer able to source the components for Polisy hence the new system

For developers

Any advantages will probably come down to your environment. Personally, i doubt you'll notice a difference unless your polisy is inside of a metal box and you need to get the signal outside of it.

Makes sense to me. I don't think they mean it as a slight to someone having used the Isy for 10 years. Just that those who recently purchased a system may feel jilted at spending a few hundred bucks recently only for a new system to come out.

See the second post. They were unable to source the components for polisy so they created a new box. Both will be developed together over the next few years. The zmatter board works with both polisy and eisy. Unless you just want to spend money on a new controller (with updated specs), you'll be getting the same thing. At some point a few years down the road, polisy will be sunset (by that time it'll be 6+ years old), and work will continue on with the eisy until eisy 2 comes along with the ZMatter 2 board that has a 900 series zwave board and supports Matter V2. You can't really do a side by side comparison of range since everyone's environment is different. Range will come down to the devices a person has, the amount, makeup of home (walls, floors, etc). The eisy will be faster than polisy naturally since it's a faster processor. However, that's like saying the iphone 14 is faster than the iPhone 13. Yeah it's faster, but how much of that you notice depends on different factors. How much of it you notice depends on your devices. If all of your devices are quality 700 series, you'll probably notice a huge difference from the Isy. If you swap over to the eisy and you have a mixed 300/500 series environment, there will be a difference but probably not as noticable

They shouldn't need that. The kit UDI is selling has everything

In addition to the link Bumbleshoot gave, see my post above

The eisy webpage does though. I'm sure it's implied as well since they talk about being a replacement for the Isy and such

Both eisy and polisy operate the same so unless you simply want newer (and higher spec'd) equipment, you'll be fine with polisy. eisy was created due to parts shortages to make polisy so it is the future. However both will see the same development over the next few years

Yes

Unfortunately, the best way to go is the one you refuse to use. Being that V2 is deprecated and will not be receiving any updates to keep running, I think you're probably beating a dead horse going that route.

I'd start by updating your controller to a more recent release as there could be bugs in your firmware. Verify if you have the 300 or 500 board. 300 has a blue light in the back of the isy. 500 does not. If 300 upgrade to 5.0.16c and if you have 500, upgrade to 5.3.4. You can find both under the software releases and updates section

I thought there was problems with the lesser model so they just went with one

A lot of us are. With this being up, I'm sure the eisy link will be up soon.... Z matter was sold from the start for polisy. @Michel Kohanimjust let it be known that it would work with eisy. This is just the dongle with the USB case that he talked about previously.

No. But it can be used with polisy as well per the title in your link

Have you tried reaching out to the mfg. to see if they have a list

It's no longer relevant.

Kwikset is usually less than 200.

It's not the space on the SD card I'm referring to. It's your actual node count. That's why I mentioned the noderserver that's available to see that and not checking the SD card space. I'd submit a ticket.

With you have the pro version, space (nodes) probably isn't the issue. There's a noderserver that you can use which can give you that information. Does your UI match your firmware? Did you actually factory reset your device it just do a remove from the Isy within 3 feet of the isy

Being that this is a brand new board for everyone (everyone is still waiting on the firmware update for it as well), most likely you'll be the trailblazer on this one. I'd google zigbee rgb recessed bulbs. As long as they support the latest zigbee HA, you should be fine. I say should because its not something i've tested so I cant say definitively. If you look in the PG3 Node Server subforum, you'll see all currently supported node servers.

Do you have the pro or regular 994? If regular, you could be running out of space. If you have any spare zwave devices, you could try to add one of those to see if it adds. If it does then space isn't an issue. Another thing is to try a remove on the lock again. Once that completes, factory reset the lock and try to re-add again making sure you're within a couple of feet

It is an open forum to ask questions and to engage with other members. Sometimes/most times, this engagement can lead to debates. Some take things personally when reality is, most changes occur due to the back and forth from that engagement. Since we don't know each other and can only see words on a screen, we don't get to hear the inflection (or lack of) in someones voice to know they aren't trying to beat someone down or chastise them. One can receive different responses based on how they approach things. Your original post was a question which you then immediately followed up with additional statements which led to additional responses. If the question was simply can you do something, members couldve easily chimed in and said: "No, it cant be done" and moved on. With the additional statements, members felt compelled to provide additional information to help you understand; which you didn't agree with (and that's ok). This rolling dialogue is good because the exchange of ideas helps broaden our minds and potentially see things differently on both sides. Even though @asbriluses crapple and zwave (we forgive him) I dont think that is what he meant by his statement. I think he was responding to your GM statement by saying that everything lose support at some point.
