Most likely it's getting confused with the name which throws things off. Try naming it something outside of anything you're using to see if that works. As long as devices are setup properly in the ISY and portal, most issues will come down to the name. If something isn't working properly, I would ensure its the actual device (and not a scene) and try calling it something outside of what you're currently using

My thought was if you received an email with the ISY address in it and someone got the email, you just given them the information to your system. While it may not mean anything to the avg person, someone with knowledge could get enough information to potentially get inside. Same reason most people on her will cross out their up addresses when they post on here

Zwave creates a secure key between the board and device which is why you need to back the board up separately. It's akin to having a sd card in your phone. You would need to back both up separately. Every zwave mfg. has their own way to add/remove devices. You'll need to find the manuals to see what your devices require. Make sure you exclude them before trying to add them.

There's alot you can do. The only limitation is your imagination

They're usb powered

I haven't. Try factory resetting the devices and restoring them in the ISY

It's enabled. Pertinent information such as your make/model of phone, android version, Isy setup, firmware and UI will help with troubleshooting and bug fixes

On and fast on are just part of the drop down menu. Has nothing to do with the sensor. What's your firmware and UI? Post your programs

Standard "Query all" program causes an off/on

Most likely you have a programming running that is causing it -
There lies the issue. Companies make things for the way THEY intend for it to be used knowing they need to protect themselves from end users using it in other ways. Some are more open than others about this. However, the best way to handle those situations is to go with whomever best fills what you are looking for.

I can't help with exact version it was changed in. If I had to take a chance, I'd go with the 1.05

If you have zwave, i like the fibaro units. They have a built in audio alarm, tamper (if someone moves it accidentally), floats, and will stop once dry

It's on every version released the last 3-4 years.

I've been blessed to have met some of the people that work there so I've been privy to more information than the general public. I won't speak on their private matters, but I've seen enough emails and heard enough chats with lawsuit threats from customers due to their customers own mistakes. I'm quite certain other companies go through this as well. While you and some others may not take things to that level, there are many out there that will. From a company standpoint, is a 35 dollar sensor worth the lawyer fees to get something thrown out? This change was made over 3 years ago so it's nothing new. Insteon chose to make it this way for their own specific reasons. There are other options out there if a person doesn't like how it works.

The problem with the law isn't always about whether you win or not. Its still about needing to go to court in the first place. After all- this is the country where we have to tell people their coffee is hot and that a curling iron can burn you.
