How do I connect to a building on a separate meter?
Try using Yolink and the Plugin for eisy control. Yolink has a solid 1/4 mile range.

X-10 Devices Stopped Working With EISY.
Follow the directions in the owners manual: CONTROLLING OUTLETLINC FROM AN INSTEON CONTROLLER Linking an INSTEON Controller to OutletLinc To use OutletLinc as an INSTEON Responder, follow these steps to Link OutletLinc and a Controller together. Refer to the Controller’s Owner’s Manual for detailed instructions on how to properly install and Link it to OutletLinc. The following will work for the most common INSTEON devices: 1) Set the Controller to Linking Mode. (For most Controllers, press & hold an On or Scene button for 10 seconds or the Set button for 3 seconds.) You will have 4 minutes to complete the next step before Linking Mode automatically times out. 2) Press & hold the Set button on OutletLinc for 3 seconds The OutletLinc Status LED will flash once and then turn on solid The load will flash once 3) Confirm that Linking was successful by tapping the button you just Linked to on the Controller OutletLinc will respond appropriately See pages 3 and 7 in the manual. https://support.insteon.com/support-knowledgebase/2014/10/1/outletlinc-2011-owners-manual?srsltid=AfmBOorCsHzrWJgzvSi8VAcC6Tek-Ob3LpW9P6daxthYCt1Bv2SiuDjF

Ring Alarm Outdoor Contact Sensor 2 Zwave
By app, if you are referring to the Yolink app, yes you need to install the app. The Yolink app is the way to interface with Yolink devices. You will also need it if you add the Yolink plugin to eisy/Polisy. The codes required for authorization come from the Yolink app.

Ring Alarm Outdoor Contact Sensor 2 Zwave
I have a Yolink sensor installed on my metal mail box: https://www.amazon.com/Universal-Contact-Closure-Assistant-Security-Required/dp/B08P1VQMCR/ref=asc_df_B08P1VQMCR?mcid=b0c7c452897c36e98dc5936b3338999c&hvocijid=1587467274128929744-B08P1VQMCR-&hvexpln=73&tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=721245378154&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1587467274128929744&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9004510&hvtargid=pla-2281435179058&th=1 Long range and long battery life. There is a plugin to bring it in to UD infrastructure.

Where is the 5.9.1 Admin Console?
You need to delete Java files (all three boxes) and download a new start.jnlp from UD.

Process for refund from PG3 plugins store?
Yes, the Rain Machine app continues to work, at least on Android. With the exception of Notifications. I reported this to them at the end of last year and they responded that because of changes to Android they needed to rewrite the Notification portion of the app. They also indicated they were working on it. However, so far there has not been an update and my inquiry last week has gone unresponded to. While I never used the plugin for Rain Machine, remote access still works (without a subscription), but you need to open a port in your router.

You need to open a support ticket with UD.

Sudden Polisy Pro issues - Please Help!
If you clear Java cache and download a new Launcher, and enter the IP address and port manually in to the Launcher does it work then? If not, suggest you open support ticket with UD.

IoX will not launch
You don't indicate if you are on Windows or Mac, so here is the general troubleshooting pages: https://wiki.universal-devices.com/Main_Page#Troubleshooting_2 Scroll through the entire section trying what is relevant. I would suggest starting with clearing State files, increasing Java memory, then clearing and reinstalling the Launcher. Be sure to click all 3 boxes when deleting Java files.

Elk nodes not loading
Take a look at the configuration tab in Polyglot for the Elk plugin and make sure all of the entries match the instructions, including use of the non secure port. Also, you can only have one connection open to Elk at a time. For example, you can not be in ElkRp2 and plugin at same time.

Insteon Trade Up Promotion 3/2025
I have thought about their new program for a few switches I have, but I think the rebate would be washed away by the cost of return shipping.

Yolink Local API
Would it be possible to include a switch in PG3x to allow the user to select local or cloud?

eisy not working properly - failed upgrade?
While it is possible if you do upgrade packages the upgrade will complete. However, I highly recommend waiting until you hear from UD, in order to minimize risk. Often you can receive a response on Sunday.

Support Thread: IoX v5.9.1 (2/10/25)
If you power cycle eisy and the upgrade button still doesn't work to upgrade you, you can try using the multifunction button. Look in the wiki for the correct number of presses of the button. If that still doesn't work, it would be best to open a support ticket.

Support Thread: IoX v5.9.1 (2/10/25)
You should open a support ticket with UD. I also ran in to a problem on my test Polisy, waited over 3 hours with nothing happening & Polisy unresponsive. Finally tried a reboot and my router shows Polisy is on line, but that is it. Can not get in with start.jnlp or ssh & portal shows it off line. The Polisy is dead. Started a support ticket with UD and there is a method to recover, but you will need to get instructions from them. It requires an inexpensive hardware adapter, but since this is my test unit, I am not sure if I will proceed.

First, you need to do a Zwave back up from the admin console under the Zwave menu. Then you back up IoX and the Zwave back up is saved there.

Release 5.9.1 discussion
Just to be clear, after completing the zwave back up, from the admin zwave menu, you must back up eisy the normal way. Zwave back up is saved during the eisy back up process.
