Took the plunge after returning from a 2 week vacation. My Polisy never seems to take updates well but this one worked like a charm. About 25mins to complete and all seems fine.

Thanks guys, I changed eisy to polisy as I did last time and this time I got a much more detailed report. My first attempt gave a much shorter, truncated report. Weird, I'm going to put it down to I messed up first time. *** OS *** FreeBSD polisy 13.2-RELEASE-p11 FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE-p11 releng/13.2-n254665-f5ac4e174fdd POLISY amd64 *** Package Information *** Seems I'm good to go!

3. If you have never upgraded your unit, it's best to make sure you have release 13.1 or 13.2 of the OS (https://eisy.local:8443/WEB/sysconfig.txt). If you do not, please do not upgrade. Trying to read the instructions and follow them too! Looked about to find the Polisy OS version and can't find it. Please help?

Telus fiber here. Bridging the router had to be done remotely when the router was installed. The tech had to call and request that. Took a few minutes for it to happen, no problems since then. Running my own TPlink router now, was a MikroTik previously.

Upgrading to PG3x Enable PG3x: https://polisy.local:8443/rest/pg3x.enable Reboot and wait for a beep, then a second beep. At that point, PG3x should be started. You can access PG3x using the same url as PG3. It is using the same host and same port. Note: username/password are changed. For PG3x, you will need to use the same username/password as your Admin Console. If you can't get in PG3x, then you may have to clear your browser history. You can also try another browser as a test. All plugins will be reinstalled by PG3x. You will each plugins disconnect/reconnect, and messages as well. Migrating node servers from PG3 to PG3x might take up to 2 minutes per plugin. So, please be patient Once all node servers show connected, reboot again. NOTE: This process will remove PG2 and PG3. Furthermore, there is no "undo" for this process. Please make sure you take a PG3 backup first. My Polisy stopped working after upgrading to 5.8.3. This had to be done (again) to get it working. Maybe give it a try? Your mileage may vary.

Thanks for trying K-bert. Now we know and can move along

Like yourself I'm not a programmer so I either had to wait until someone added this feature to the node server or find a work-around. That's why I went to HA. I've not followed the HA / EISY info, but I began with an old Rasberry Pi I had sitting around, then to an old PC for HA. From just my experince you can keep most everything working from the EISY and add to the HA what you want. Some hardware works better with one or the other (ZWave on HA for me) It's a rabbit hole of time spent learning HA and IoX is much better at controling insteon. Long term I might have been better off learning to program

I've been watching for developments in this node server very closely for the past 2 years and I've seen nothing change in those years. I took the path of Home Assistant to control WLED with presets in tandem with Polisy. Learning Home Assistant has been a challenge but I've enjoyed many of it's features. As the people who develop Home Assistant pointed out. No one ever begins with Home Assistant, it's always a path taken after beginning with another system.

I've an old version on OpenSprinkler, connected via ethernet. It's never given a problem in the many years I've owned it.

Probably the solution to my experince, which I inadvertently did when I gave up for a week trying to find a fix.

Happy New Year to all. Life slides back to a more normal state post holidays and I found time to look at this again From thie post I again tried as written... Upgrading to PG3x Enable PG3x by clicking this link: https://polisy.local:8443/rest/pg3x.enable I did not reboot the Polisy, just used this to again try to get to PG3x. I should have checked to see the situation for PG3x before trying this again but I didn't. Opened PG3x in Polisy and it's all working fine now. Can not be sure doing the above fixed it or something else happened while my back was turned. Onward toward making the Polisy my home controller. Going to miss the little 994.

Yes the Admin console works fine. This is how I was able to try to use the update and reboot buttons muliple time.

Sadly this did not go well. I've been staring at this from my Polisy since the install. Numerous upgrade packages attempts and reboots later and no change. Powering down for 10+ seconds, no change. Complete "Factory reset" via the hidden button, no change. Suspect there will be a trouble ticket in my future unless someone can suggest something. Happily my old reliable 994 continues to chug along. Missing it's node servers now though. If I can get this sorted I may have to finally put it to bed.

On/off, colours, brightness and effect.

I'm new to WLED, I just got my lights functioning and would like to add them to my home automation system. I installed the WLED polyglot V3 and have noticed there is limited access to the functions available in WLED. Specifically the presets and playlists within WLED. I'm not sure if these are relatively new features or not within WLED but if they could be added to the polyglot, they would allow much more customization. Thank you much.
