Yes. That is correct

Keep in mind, clear links is not the same as a factory reset. You can end up with undesirable things happening if you do not factory reset when coming from another controller.

The best thermostats unfortunately are all cloud. Not many companies make zwave thermostats so you're limited in your options. I think go control and 2gig are your only other options. With that said, I have an original ecobee 3 from 2014 installed at my Mom's house which still connects to their servers and works flawlessly. That sort of history makes me trust them to continue using them in any future home for personal or professional use.

Does anyone ever do that? ?

Ive attached the Polisy wiki page which details how to set things up on polisy as I figured it would come in handy to help you get started with polisy. https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=Polisy:User_Guide

Does your UI match? I'd upgrade to the latest 5.3.4 to ensure any bug fixes are in place

It would help if you said what you were using along with firmware and UI since that can play a part in things

Don't you already have a post open for this answered? If their own app doesn't support it then i doubt it exists in the api for the developer to add it. Most likely it's turning off using hdmi-CEC .

Can't help you through vpn since i don't use mine through one. You could make sure you have the correct port attached for V2

Since you're using polisy and PG3, your old node servers from pg2 would show unmanaged since that's a different setup. You would log into PG2 and delete those node servers from there

Program lock disables the set button on the device preventing someone from linking or changing settings manually

Not anymore. So many have been on there, the prices are back to being reasonable

No batteries are in the controllers. Make sure you're on the latest firmware for your unit and that the firmware and UI matches

Harmony is not a bad Idea outside what it would cost. The Node server is local as well as your control. Unless you plan on making frequent changes, the remote and its ability to control your system can potentially last for years even after shutdown. The servers managing all codes are still being updated so you can still add new devices and for the most part, the large tv mfg. do not change the codes. For example, my oldest LG oled tv is a B6 from 2016. That remote still works with my latest LG G1 and vice versa

What support are you looking for on a forum? Most people generally post on forums when they have a problem. Due to the nature of the title, most would've read it and moved on (unless they needed the info). If you're looking for a response to your posts, you should've started your own thread vs piggybacking off someone else's only for it to get lost in the mix with other on going posts. By starting your own thread, you increase the chance of others seeing it and responding. . While UDI may chime in here from time to time, this is a mainly a peer driven forum. Members choose to respond to forum posts but are under no obligation to do so either. If a person is looking for developer support, they should properly tag that developer (by adding @ and start typing the name and then choosing it when it pops up) vs a member who may or may not check on often. Ditto for UDI support or better, submit a ticket. As you can clearly see, these forums are quite active with members willing to take time out of their day and families to help others in need. The tepid response is more about members improperly piggybacking on a post vs taking the time to start a new one to get their questions answered.... especially when it comes down to technical support. In regards to the information you seek, yes, polisy is running the isy software and has been since last year some time. There's a sub-forum (IOP) for it which can be found on the main page under the Polisy header. The first 2 posts under the original V2 Node server answers the rest of your posts. Since the V3 version is new and most members would've come from V2, you'll see a lot more information there than you will here for the time being

Would that include the nokia hub

Alexa can do those things but the Isy takes it to another level by allowing you to integrate things using natural habits or automatically to run your devices. Voice can be included as well but it's not necessary. Like i said, it comes down to your imagination.

None of the node servers are "needed" per-se. They're needed if you want to be able to control those devices with your Isy. What can be done and how useful they are depends on your imagination. While harmony no longer make remotes, that doesn't diminish what can be done with them. For example, My are part of my goodnight and away programs. I hit away, the TV's will shut down along with everything else connected to the button. With my goodnight button, depending on room, TV's will shut off while others will turn on. The simple act of me turning off the TV with the remote will also trigger my goodnight scene depending on room and time. Depending on whose code is used coming home determines what turns on (if the tv is off). While things may be app based (if that's how you watch tv), this can allow the tv and remote to be ready when you sit down to watch it vs manually turning it on and having to wait for the remote to go through it's steps. There's a lot more that I do. Those are just a couple of quick examples to show what can be done if you take the time to think things through an doubt into motion.

I was just messing around. You said it much more eloquently than i would've. I didn't see anything wrong with it

Can we all just get along? ?

That's strange. I recently purchased one to replace the last of my insteon motion sensors and it added to both my polisy and isy.

This is where providing ALL of the information about your situation helps. This is a 3way setup which is why 1 switch works and the other one doesnt. Once you factory reset the device, the links were erased. You just need to relink it to the main switch.

Your programs look nothing like what someone else posted earlier that you said you copied. The only thing your family room program accomplishes is turning on the corner light. Nothing else would happen. Ditto for the garage. The only thing that would happen is it will turn off at 10pm. If the switch actually turns on properly (ramps up), then either the switch is bad or the bulb is bulb. Id try a different bulb

Post your program

Try a factory reset again to ensure it was done right. Nothing with either system should prevent them from working when manually controlled and connected directly to a light. If that doesn't work, then the switches are bad
