I wouldn't use Nokia in a high end home at this time. There are holes in the device lineup right now which makes it unsuitable for whole house automation. Personally, I wouldn't use Insteon period. RadioRa2 and C4 (which is ZigBee) all respond as one depending on setup..
-
The hub has everything built in so it doesn't need a PLM just like the current hub
-
That's the hub
-
No. At least not in the near future
-
It does matter because it's based on what homeseer is sending and the isy is receiving. While your issue may persist through both systems, if it's not being done properly through homeseer, you'll still have the issue once your communication issues are resolved
-
Your presumption is incorrect. If you're only triggering the Kpl button from homeseer then you are triggering that button and not the scene attached to that button. Insteon does not work like that. I'm confused though. I thought your issue was with the Isy now you're saying that you're using homeseer to trigger your devices!? What is your setup exactly as you're now adding additional information which can change things.
-
Is your portal account still active? If you haven't changed anything then i suspect a bug with Amazon.
-
They do work better. I'd try to solve the problem in the mean time.
-
Is your whole house older devices? I'm surprised you're not having issues with more devices as the phases would not be bridged if the 2443 were bad. You could always try to replace the suspect bulbs with incandescent bulbs temporarily to see what happens. We can only give you the usual suspects
-
If the 2443s were bad, i would think he would be missing signals throughout half the house vs a few specific devices. If you're not using CFL or led bulbs with those lights, you could unplug everything on that circuit and see what happens. Plug everything in 1 at a time while testing and once you find the culprit, put a filter on it.
-
Not necessarily. Depends on what's causing the issues. You could potentially be causing more issues than you solve by doing it that way but it is possible
-
The program should turn on the whole scene not just the kpl
-
Is this via a scene or a program? Doesn't sound like the devices are bad. Just communication issues overall and potential programming issues. What type of bulbs are you using?

Leak Detectors sending false alarms
lilyoyo1 replied to patcg60's topic in New user? Having trouble? Start here
The PLM would have nothing to do with his leak detectors reporting false status. Especially in absence of poor communication -
It would help if you said the issues you were having and what the switches were.

I've never seen that happen like that. If replace the batteries factory reset then, and restore then into your isy -
Unlike you, for the most part i don't have to speculate. When I do, i say so. In the end, the information you've tried to give has already been shown to be blatantly false, yet you want to insist otherwise. Especially when contradictory information is right in front of you. As I said, you dig up a 2 week old post to provide information when the last 3 pages of this post all pertain to them releasing new product (which I've talked about since last year)
-
I'm not offended. You're just posting incorrect information weeks later that has been shown to be blatantly false at this time
-
Ditto for me too. I've found the more complicated you make things, the less efficient things become which makes automation an inconvenience. With all the variables the op wants, real world use will cause more problems than it solves
-
It amazes me how people can find a post that was last commented on weeks ago but completely miss everything that was subsequently stated which contradicts what they are stating. As @MrBill stated, support is outsourced and the chances of them knowing any of insteon's internal workings are absolutely nil. Even when they had in house Customer support they were notoriously tight-lipped. Unless someone was in management or was close to someone in management who told them, they weren't provided much information themselves. Besides that, In addition to new investments in their websites, they have a completely new line announced. Definitely not stuff a company going out of business imminently does
-
That's not news. It's been discussed quite a few times on this post already. The appliance module has been gone for quite some time. They've also just announced a new line so most likely they aren't going anywhere

Interference from variable speed HVAC systems
lilyoyo1 replied to NickJ's topic in INSTEON Communications Issues
A little too educated IMO. Even those on here proficient with insteon really don't get that detailed in regards to numbers -
Interference from variable speed HVAC systems

Sounds like a troller vs someone really wanting to add something positive to the members -
Remove from the Isy, factory reset, and then manually turn on. If they don't turn off, re-add them to the isy, turn them on from the Isy, and see if they turn off.
