Insteon product availability
That would be too bad for aartech.ca since they were a major supporter of Insteon in Canada, offering guarantees that (old) Insteon wouldn't honour. The progress intent is awesome but the outcome may be a disaster for their Canadian market considering the huge shipping costs charged to cross the border with product. Usually, crossing the border in bulk at much reduced prices is very beneficial to this process. They may price themselves out of the Canadian market without some vice to get them here, without ridiculous price hikes and poor warranty support.

I'm going hard too! Damn! where did the stroke off font go here?

Help, big time freak show
Sounds like the same old "loose neutral" on the electrical feed from the street transformer. LEDs indicate these problems better than incandescents ever did.

I have about 10 Insteon Leak Sensors that U have no need for any more. If interested PM me.

Programing options for a motion sensor that is too sensitive
$iMotionCount =+ 1 Probably would be listed as $iMotionCount += 1

Almost ready to migrate...
Yeah, It seems rather odd that the webpage alexa app will not allow so many things for setup, and yet under the devices you can individually disable/delete items and also discover new items...and without the silly verbal reminders and warning, so annoying. No I don't have a Hue Hub,..... and why only a reminder bout a Hue Hub over the other few hundred brands? Oh yeah a warning! If you delete all your ISY devices for longer than a few seconds you will need to re-define and re-enable all your Routines inside the mobile Alexa app again.

Alexa doesn't like when you cancel things in ISY Portal, and sometimes disables things it thinks do not exist anymore. AI (guessing) at it's finest.

I need a reminder how to login to Polisy
It is intentional then and I didn't find a bug to report. Thanks. Mentally fixed here. Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

This must be new to me also. Did you mean IoP? I have never heard of logging in to polisy via ISY finder. My URL is http://192.168.0.165:3000/dashboard I never use https.

I need a reminder how to login to Polisy
While on this subject, what is with the login via ISY Portal that takes you back to Polisy to login again, every time? I thought only one login was necessary last update. It seems the login process has gone haywire again.

Insteon product availability
Gotta' wonder if a bleach bath could make these work again for a few more years. It may make the plastic somewhat more brittle but it would be worth a shot. Hopefully the new Insteon could offer replacement parts for those. They don't contain any ICs so there should be no excuse there and it could be quick money for Insteon.

Possible to reinstall Polisy OS (firmware)?
"Trigger" was Roy Roger's horse so.....

I would wait until Michel gets on this from your open ticket. I assume you meant to use the acronym IoP, as IoT has a different meaning typically, and may confuse some. Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

I don't think aartech.ca had one Insteon item in stock a few weeks ago when I last checked, so I would say Insteon is feeding our Canuck counterpart nicely.

ecobee and climacell not posting information in the Polisy
I have always had to restart my whole polisy any update I have done. Some small quirk always seems to show up. Sent from my SM-G781W using Tapatalk

Interesting way of looking at programming on ISY994...
Yeah, It seems like it would be so easy to add another pulldown option in the menu, and add the same code without the "program Stop"

Changing Ecobee climate type with indefinite hold fails
Just some observations Why not use vacation mode if a permanent hold is wanted? I am not sure Away climate will ever be Indefinite remotely, and may not be a possible combination . I have never used Away on my ecobees. This is my third, now. What is your internal schedule hold set to? This may be overriding any remote Hold. I gave up trying to have my ISY control my ecobee stats (they already contain very advanced logic) and went the other way around, finding that the ecobee stat firmwares were so much more stable and didn't rely on cloud and multi-processor mediums to operate. In the end, a much more reliable and easily settable way was for the ecobee Vacation schedule status to control my ISY vacation logic for the whole house. If the connection failed it was only some fancy HA stuff like humidifier, HRV, fan cycling, security lighting etc.. not my home heating. Of course my house (slab heat in Canadian winter) would only reheat about 1 degree per hour, at best, so when it failed, we slept with a lot of blankets the first night home and used the stove a lot, the next morning

I heard you were coming and moved. Here is a map of southern Ontario. See the braying elephant? I lived in a**hole.

Zoom meeting with Ken Friday
Much better sound and visible people. I wonder how all the overpowering ambience got removed. Steve Lee was a bit better with curtain behind him to absorb much of the echo. Of course I am sure there are digital algorithm to remove some of it. My Amazon echo can only hear you if you are the furthest across the room you can get. The close ones hardly ever answer.

All looks promising for Insteon future! Sure glad Steve Lee is on that team. Hopefully this time he will be given a bigger stick.

I can see you are a man of experience. Not many would even realise these quirks without sweating through it themselves. Still have any hair left?

Yes. IIRC this is only event driven system I have worked with, that can have processes stopped and restarted. I would guess in the beginning UDI had to decide what to do when a new event happens that is the same as one already being processed. Continue like nothing happened and ignore the new event Continue like nothing happened and stack the new event for sequential operation Stop the current process and handle the new even like the previous process wasn't happening. The choice they made provides a lot of strange happenings in even processing and program writing. It definitely puts a hiccough in the logical thinking of experienced inline code writers. Now I would like UDI to add a program disable command that allows a program to finish what it started. Currently the Disable program command line also stops the affected program.
