I just installed the upgrades suggested by my admin console (using with eisy). Everything went fine until I rebooted (after the install was complete). As soon as I log in, I get a message box that shows I have Admin Console v.5.8.4, and Iox Firmware v.5.9.1. I'm then told the Admin Console version is not compatible with the Iox firmware version. I'm then asked to use a version of the Admin Console that is the same as or newer than the Iox firmware. The only choice is "OK" after which everything closes. Is the answer to this, download the most recent Admin Console, install it, then restore from a backup? Should the original admin console be removed first? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks everyone. The provided links lead to much of the type of information I'm looking for.

I started using home automation back in the X-10 days. Most of my network has been Insteon for years. I started with the ISY994i and have upgraded to the eisy. I've always been able to muddle through using the Admin Console but a recent screw up on my part has me rebuilding my network. The screw up is unimportant but was substantial and born out of pushing buttons without truly understanding what I was doing. The rebuilding process is being hampered by my lack of knowledge of the finer points of setting up nodes and scenes. The Admin Console uses colors and symbols the meaning of which is not always obvious to occasional users like myself. There are many somewhat mysterious options at various points which can result in increased confusion. I've found an Admin Console pdf manual but it is extremely out of date. I've also looked at the Wiki that offers some information, but seems lacking concerning basic operation. Is there a wiki or document I'm just not seeing that has the detailed level of explanation found in the obsolete Admin Console pdf, but covers the current Admin Console version?
