tks.

I did not see a forum specifically about the HUB2 so please forgive if this is not the correct one. I reciently got a HUB2 (because the Amazon Alxea up was updated and no longer supported the isy994). plugged it in set it up all without a subscription. Is this a grace period or is a subscription not required for local control?

Thanks. Will probably start the move for two reasons. 1) I need the portal function and 2) with my luck the isy994 will up and die at the worst time. I am in Oklahoma and on OEC. would be nice if their meters spoke openADR. Also have some solarEdge solar panels, same comment.

I have been busy with other projects so have not kept up with all that has been going on with regards to isy994. I have gotten some Emails lately that indicate the isy994 is on the way out and is being replaced by the eisy. Is this true?

When I started home automation I used X-10. There was a noise meter that would tell you the signal strength of the X-10 signal and the noise level. I have look but cannot find an equivalent for Insteon. Does one exist?

Trying to update the firmware from 4.9.0 to the latest (5.x) there is no automatic update, just manual. I thought there was an automatic update option. If not, where do get the update file?

Have added/removed hardware as well as added groups. How do I get Agave to update?

I added a group on my ISY994 and was looking for how to add it to Agave. In the process I added a group that is not connected to the group on the ISY. So, how do I remove the grp from Agave?

I ha e had to replace some switches. how do I remove them in Agave?

Have had this configuration for years. Sometime yesterday it stopped talking. the scripts that don't depend on any outside input work. Can't connect with app, My ELK or agave. can't ping. when I look at the network connection I have green lights. Is there a way to rest the network or is it dead? Edit: think I found it, bad hub

This looks like the best place to ask this. Does Insteon make a 3 way switch other than the micro module? Is using two and link the only way? Really don't want to spend $100 right now. tks.

Replaced a micro module because it stopped working. At first it worked fine then stopped working (local or remote). if I cycle power it works. The micro module started this way then quick completely. Why and is there a way to rest without cycling power?

fixed. tks all.

what is the (than)? wrote a script that has no if just than. turns on a light, sets a bar. waits 2 min than turns the light off and sets the bar back to 0. disabled it than ran. works. tks.

Yes the wait command used to work. reset, disconnected power and left off for 10 min Can't figure out how to copy/past code. but here is the basic idea if door violated (signal I get from my elk) Than turn on entry light turn on garage light $GarageEntry=2 want 10 minutes $GarageEntry = 3 turn off garage light turn off entry light $GarageEntry=0 else (no else) GarageEntry gets set to 2 and never changes. here is the error log Time User Code Message Sun 2021/07/18 09:10:52 AM System -5012 53 Sun 2021/07/18 04:21:43 PM System -5006 uuid:53 Sun 2021/07/18 04:21:44 PM System -5006 uuid:53 Sun 2021/07/18 04:21:50 PM System -5006 uuid:55 Sun 2021/07/18 04:21:50 PM System -5006 uuid:55 Sun 2021/07/18 04:21:50 PM System -5006 uuid:55

Have a 994i and noticed recently that the wait function is not working. have it in several scripts and everyone stops when it gets to the wait command. Any suggestions?

Thanks. I know I can home brew a solution (do EMI for a living). Was looking for a canned solution so I can move on to more fun thinks.

It figures. Have had the lights to long. They are in a workshop that was built almost a year ago. I had the lights and switch installed then but just now getting around to wanting to switch it remotely.

Brought up the ISY admin console. Renamed each device (Fan, Living Room, etc). Verified that each device was responding. Brought up Agave on my phone and verified each device. Went to alexa.amazon.com and selected "Smart Home". Selected "Devices". I can see all the devices I originally installed and can operate (and other things like our printers and Direct TV devices). Clicked on "Discover". A window pops up "Alexa is looking for devices" Runs for about 20 seconds but no new devices. It seams like I am missing a step but can't remember.

blmiiler said he had a hardwired leviton noise filter. Where did you find the filter. I just installed two LED lights in my workshop and I can turn them on but once they are on the produce so much noise I can't remotely turn them off. I would really not have to install an outlet and put a plug on the run going to the lights.

Posting this to a new thread because the one I posted in another older thread may not have been seen. I have isy devices working with Alexa. Set it up a couple of years ago. I can't get Alexa to discover 6 new devices. I can see and control the new devices through the dashboard and with agave and I can still control the old devices through Alexa so I know the port is still working. I read the steps at the beginning of this topic and unless I missed something have done them all. Any ideas? Thanks

I do have the ISY on a static address. Have always had a static adders. I do have a the address space split into reserved for static devices, have several, and assignable by DHCP. When I switch to the UDI for smart home skill Alexa is able to find all my devices, just can't command any of the devices. Based on other comments I think I need to get the Mobilink skill removed. If you see in one of my other comments the username (email) and password I use to log in to this forum does not work.

When I try to use the username "FarmerGeek" I get can't find user. When I use the email address and the password I use for this forum I get incorrect password. When I try and change the password I get Can't find account. So I am confused.

at this URL https://www.universal-devices.com/login-for-ticket/#lform and should the username/password be the same as here?
