The best sales line, used everywhere is, "everybody else is getting one" or "It's our most popular xxx".

Missing in Android app also now. I know they want to get everything by vocal control but I don't see how to remove superfluous items anymore. Maybe it is self cleansing now?

I think it is at the very bottom of the devices page in the Android app, along with Delete All devices. That needs to be every so often to clear out the change of hearts in naming you had over the years. I mostly use the vocal "Alexa...discover". Then it vocally let's you know what new devices it found.

I have a Netgear AC1900 that I had heat problems with, only in the summer though. Figuring it was bad I bought an ASUS AC1900 RT-AC68U router to replace it. It has heat problems, only in the summer though. I have converted the ASUS to ASUSWRT-Merlin firmware (they only fix bugs) and it didn't help. I mounted them both vertically and in free air, and they have both worked almost flawlessly now, for the last few years. Some device just give up connecting to easily though. The ASUS is a better router and they now have mesh routing built into them if you want to get more than one. I turned down the transmit power on both routers, both frequencies, and that helped. Only problem, at about 3% of their power output, my neighbour could clobber my one router as his signal strength was higher than mine, in my own home. After changing frequencies, with such low signal level, his router changed to the same frequency. I have raised my transmit levels and found channels that no neighbours are using. Hopefully now, when other routers reboot every week they will see my signal and avoid the same channels. I use a free app on my cell phone, and my Killer Control Centre software app, that came with my laptop WiFi, to see every WiFi channel in use. If you are trying to use 5GHz WiFi and have any airplanes near you, your WiFi may be disconnecting constantly. It is part of the 5GHz licence to share the frequency with radar systems. Just before trashing your router I would investigate installing WRT-Merlin third party firmware into it. It may save you some money if it is available for your model.

I have always used the Insteon address to link devices and I only press linking buttons on battery devices. The rest do not require it.

Has nothing to do with "stable". It has to do with Zwave inclusions not being complete enough.

Geeeez. That brings back the memory of trying to extract the temperature from an Insteon thermostat 2441ZTH using a bank of programs. One program per degree to test for each degree from bottom to top. What a PITA. Been using v5 for about four years now and have a hard time remembering the silly things we had to do.

No. It applies to the ISY setup on the last tab. IIRC

Thanks. I think we have agreement on that. My nodes are still in ISY, Polyglot reads the ISY profile and finds the polyglot profiles do not match, and then shows a ghost NS, with no options to delete/start or stop it. However, I copied a saved copy of the Ecobee NS back into the proper folder and rebooted. Back in business but Polyglot v2.2.6 is crashing when trying to connect to ecobee server I think. I attached the log for einsten.42 in Jimbo's thread for ecobee NS.

The one just above the wiggling Hula dancer figurine. Where else would you hang panties on?

Don't let the dice on the rear view mirror get into your view.

Thanks very much! I was just doing that when your post came in.:) It did reset my polyglot and it is running again! Now it doesn't like my Ecobee NS. It shows unmanaged and "uninstall" won't do anything or even delete the file folder. Manually deleting the folder changes nothing after reboot. Seems the polyglot setup file and the files are out of sync. I tried reloading my original backup file but no help there.

Increases the performance. Well,... the perceived performance.

@einstein.42This time I removed polyglot, deleted the polyglot folders, and deleted the user polyglot, also. I couldn't find any access to the group polyglot so I assumed it was gone, along with it. Rebooted and reinstalled polyglot fresh. Install went without errors but after rebooting again to install polyglot, I got another constant loop, but with a different set of reporting lines. The .env file does not exist in this directory. Perhaps these are some better clues how to fix my polisy.

There is a switch for metric on the ISY administration page IIRC. You may have to reboot ISY after. I have banks of synchronisation programs where any input that requires the values tailored is automatically stuffed into a state variable to trigger other processes. I have one that takes three outdoor temperature sources, applies individual scaling factors, and averages them, tossing out any sensor that has drifted more than 2 degrees C from the average, and then recalculating the average using the remaining two. I use this variable resultant to trigger all my other programs requiring a reliable outside temperature. Every sensor gets sun at some point in the day. Living on a small mountain the sun travels almost 240 degrees around us each day in the summer.

Sorry. Plug the network cable in, plug the ISY serial cable to PLM in. Power up the PLM, wait a few seconds, then plug your ISY in. This way when ISY powers up it can find the network and the PLM and initialise itself properly....getting PLM info, and time clock etc.. from the Internet.

PLM gets powered up first for a few seconds, then ISY, which will then detect the PLM and install proper support routines for the PLM.

All software on my polisy are running and updating ISY except for polyglot v2.2.6. I cannot get it to respond via browser admin console using any combination of ports I can think of. Polyglot is running but failed initialising. This can be seen adding to the debug.log every loop still reporting this. There has to be another .env file that is doing this, but I haven't been able to find one. I can completely remove my .env file, but it makes no difference to the initialisation failure reporting, and therefore must not be the offending .env file. Polyglot did create a new empty nodeserver directory/folder. Is there a way to reload v2.2.5?

ISY will be fine. Very few have ever had bugs that are not user problems. You have a lot of programming experience, but the event based programming throws many seasoned linear programmers for a loop, at first. The injected Waits for variable manipulation is a good debugging tool. I have used it a few times for complex arithmetic where intermediate results would normally be hidden. You will learn to fly with ISY. It's a fabulous toy and a powerful tool.

I tried every combinations of http/https port:3000/443/none but no response. See my debug.log above, showing a loop trying to initialise from some .env file whether it exists, or I rename it to savedenvfile and reboot Right now I am trying the nodeserver directory rename to eliminate that booting complication.

That makes sense. The beta load has locked up my boot process and I can't seem to get it stopped. grrrr…...

I'm software bricked! I followed the lines above and cannot access polyglot. SSHed in and examined debug.log to find this repeating ad nauseum Then I deleted my homemade .env file and rebooted...no success and same debug.log running So I removed the beat package sudo pkg remove polyglot-beta, and rebooted Now I reinstalled polyglot with sudo pkg install polyglot...which appeared to install v2.2.6 ???? Debug.log running the same problem as above. Tried deleting the package and deleting the directories and reinstalling...same problem = polyglot v2.2.6? won't get passed initialisation. stumped!!

Many different types of security.

Use the "Copy to clipboard" function and paste the real program.

Yes but you weren't using a factor of 0.555 in a v4 program. Did you power cycle your ISY yet? Have you saved the program yet? Show us the actual code by copying and pasting.
