  1. Thanks for your help Brian. It's at least 2 years old. So I guess it's time to order a replacement? I am still able to control the device, just not with scenes.
  2. I have an EZ Flora controller that loses all it's links repeatedly. I restore the device to restore all it's links and then after some time, all the links are gone again. I figure most likely the device is defective but I just wanted to check here first before I order a new one to make sure there isn't possibly another cause. I have another ezflora that I haven't had this problem with. Thanks!
  3. When I got home I plugged the PLM that wasn't working which had been sitting around for a few days and it worked again. I had a new PLM in route to be delivered and figured at least now I would have a backup. However the old PLM stopped working again a few days later. So it's a good thing that I got the new PLM.

  4. Thanks for the quick response. I forgot to mention that I did reboot the isy after I had someone power cycle the plm. The isy is indeed still in safe mode after rebooting.
  5. I have a 994i in safe mode. It appears my 2413s has stopped working. Unfortunately this happened while I am away from home. It seems my smart house is smart enough to know when I am going to leave for a while and decides that is a good time to fail . I had someone go over there and unplug the plm for 30 seconds and plug it back in and this didn't solve any problems. I'm guessing that I just need to order a new plm. But I was experiencing some other problems before this happened and I am wondering if they might be related. I have some programs that change the on levels of togglelincs in scenes and the backlight levels of some togglelincs. I was having intermittent communication problems with a few of the togglelincs when these programs would run. One switch in particular would stop working altogether when the program would run to change its on level in a scene, though not every time. When this would happen the red exclamation mark would show and I wouldn't be able to control the device again until I pulled the air gap tab on the switch. Then it could be controlled normally again. I believe the point at which the plm stopped working was when one of the programs ran to adjust the on levels and backlight levels. These run in the morning and evening based on the light sensors on motion detectors. When I noticed the plm was no longer working there were green flags next to 3 or 4 of the switches that would have either had their on levels in scenes changed or their back light levels adjusted. After I saw the green flags I tried to reboot the isy and that's when it went into safe mode and I realized the plm may be finished. I do have my phases coupled with 2 range extenders + an extra one near the plm. I'm wondering if the togglelinc that has to be reset by pulling the set tab may be faulty and perhaps lead to my plm not working. I'm sure this whole situation sounds little complicated, but by the off chance that someone may help me figure out what I need to do to get things back in order or at least in the mail (if I need another plm or switch) before I get home, I would be extremely grateful. Thanks in advance!
  6. If you have a windows pc using eventghost on a UPS you can have eventghost detect power loss with help from the script in this thread on the eventghost forum: http://www.eventghost.org/forum/viewtop ... f=2&t=2928 I use this and so far it works perfectly. When the UPS attached to the windows PC loses grid power eventghost generates an event that the system is using battery power. When AC power is restored it generates another event. You could send commands to REST from eventghost to change variables or whatever you need to signal the ISY that grid power has failed and also when it has been restored.
  7. I used the ISY plugin quite a while ago but ended up removing it, I forget why. But now I just use the web server plugin on eventghost and I generate events by calling on the eventghost webserver from ISY network resources. If I need eventghost to communicate to the ISY I use eventghost to run cURL and send commands to the REST interface on the ISY. Anyway, I'm a big fan of eventghost, it really ends up filling any gaps in automation that seem to come up from time to time.
