Motion sensing programs for different times of day
PurdueGuy replied to Screw Loose Dan's topic in ISY994
To add to what @jfai said, I am using less and less times directly in program conditions. I have moved to having multiple programs that enable/disable other programs as needed. Then in the program, I have just the conditions (motion sensor status in your case). This way I don't have programs triggering at odd times. -
You are also better off creating 1 scene with 4 responders. That way you can turn that scene off, and they all go off in unison, instead of one at a time in rapid succession ('popcorn effect').

Man, I leave for a week and big news hits! Congrats to @Michel Kohanim and the rest of the team! Way to go!

Unlink the "dedicated" off/on buttons on the 2487S from the internal switch
PurdueGuy replied to Andy Wylde's topic in ISY994
The quickest answer is, as far as I know, the on/off on the keypad are directly tied to the "load" output from the switch. They cannot be decoupled. As I am reading the OPs original post: Wiring: FanLinc input wired to Hot 2487S (KPL) input wired to HOT FanLinc: Light output wired to fan light. Motor output wired to fan motor. 2487S load (red) wired to secondary fan assembly that rotates fans. Desires: KPL On/Off BUTTONS control fan light via FanLinc KPL scene button (A/B/C/D) control fan motor via FanLinc KPL load (red) controls rotation assembly motor The short answer is: no, I don't think you can do this with 1 FanLinc and 1 2487S. The KPL On/Off button will always control the load. You can have the load go nowhere, but you can'y decouple them. It would be great if I am wrong though. I am guessing it is some setup like this. (In this example there is no secondary motor to spin the fans, but doing do would be easy. This example just spins them based on the fans moving air themselves. -
Your first post was 13 hours ago and you've already given up as of 5 hours ago? So you gave them 8 hours to respond? With other products, I've waited weeks/a month for tickets to be responded to. UDI is typically quite willing to help, and almost always bends over backwards to help people out.

Off works on does not Fast on does
PurdueGuy replied to kowaj's topic in New user? Having trouble? Start here
Check the "On Level" hasn't been set to 0? The "Restore Devices" should have reset it, but if the On Level was set to 0 and ISY things that's correct, it will put it to 0 when you restore. When you controlling things from the ISY, are you using a scene? The individual device? -
Using Status it will trigger whenever the status reaches the proper value. But there is no Fast On for a status. If you are trigger from an app/AC/Alexa/etc, trigger the program (or trigger another program that calls this program). Or set a variable that will call this program. Since you are in the land of software triggers, there are a number of things you can do.

There is also a 3-plug version for $26. https://www.amazon.com/Kasa-Smart-Protector-Required-KP303-dp-B083JKSSR5/dp/B083JKSSR5

With an ISY in the system, you should always create scenes via ISY. Otherwise, the ISY won't know about the scene, and could overwrite it at some point. Also, creating them in ISY makes it very easy to change on level, ramp rates, etc. Creating via the Set button is more work. And some devices (FanLincs, etc) are annoying to get to the Set button.

It sounds like the modules and new PLM haven't been linked together. You followed these steps, correct? https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:File_Menu#Restore_Modem_.28PLM.29 Is it just those modules? When you turn on or off other devices, the ISY shows an immediate status update for that device? Maybe when you did the restore ISY could not communicate with those devices? You can try to right-click and Restore Device...

Also, depending on how many devices and which firmware version... For times you don't want them to react, if on v5+, you can set them to "ignore" (at least I think that started in v5).

Does regular Polisy have Bluetooth built-in? (I don't know if it's enabled yet. or will be.)

Hi Michel, I got the Weather Module notice, so I don't know which category that falls under. However, I try to select all 5 options, but after it saves, 2 of the options are shown as unchecked. Product News & Announcements Beta Firmware Announcements Thought you should know. (I do receive a confirmation email that my account was updated, so something is happening.)
