  1. To avoid any potential “naming issue,” I’ve tried using the Alexa App. My first attempt failed, but my second try was successful. The device is in Portuguese, but the first picture shows a message indicating that the device isn’t responding and is waiting… (I’ve removed the address and names from the picture.)
  2. The skill is not "UDI", great it worked with you...
  3. Thanks for the help : Eisy Version : IOX v.5.9.1 (2025-03-05-10:18:08) IoX v.5.9.1 (2025-03-14-16:21:41) eisy (5226) OpenADR (21010) Networking Module (21040) Portal Integragion - UDI (21075) Z-Wave Module (21100) A10/X10 Module (21060) Portal Integration shows Registered Internet Access disabled Power cycle Alexa device(s) - Did Several times Powercycle UD Device - Did at least twice Control device with other method (UD Mobile, Admin Console, Physical switch) - Yes, even with Alexa it sometimes works, its "erratic" Confirm UD Portal license is current - Portal Integration shows Registered Confirm UD Portal is using proper device (UUID) and linked to Alexa - Yes, just have one eisy registered Look at "My Profile" and see that preferred UUID is correct - Correct Click on Connectivity and confirm UUID is active UD device - Correct Confirm Alexa Skill is linked to UD Portal account - might need to unlink/disable skill and then re-enable to re-link : its is connected. The issues I'm facing : - Alexa says "ok" to a command but it never happens - Alexa says "ok" to a command but it takes 5-10 seconds to execute - Alexa says "ok" to a command and it works "almost immediately" Devices failing are majority Insteon : - (2443-222) Micro Module On/Off v.48 - (2876SB) Icon Relay Switch v.39 - (2477D) Dual Band SwitchLinc Dimmer v.45 - (2856S3B) Icon Relay 3-Pin v.39 - Sonoff Devices, firmware tasmota, thru MQTT If a command fails, repeating it usually works flawlessly, but sometimes it doesn’t, there is no distinction of which Alexa devices I'm talking to, I have 4 (3 distinct models : 1 3rd Gen, 1 Dot and 2 Spots) Thanks in advance!
  4. It used to be 100% stable but now I'm still facing issues with Alexa commands to turn on/off from time to time. It answers "ok" but the lights/outlets do not respond. How can I troubleshoot it?
  5. Same Here. Alexa failing, UD Mobile failing to login and ISY portal doest load the page...

    I completely agree about reliability versus wifi, but I’m not sure if it’s because I live outside the USA. However, I believe it's the same famous capacitors issue from “Insteon Serial Modem” but happening in the dimmers, ON/OFF switches... I haven’t had any other electrical equipment failures in the past 15 years at the same home, that's why I blame Insteon, maybe wrongly... Unfortunately, I don’t have the ability to replace the capacitors, and I haven’t found anyone here in São Paulo willing to do it. I received one recommendation, but the guy gave up on it because of other business priorities. Now I've moved partially to sonoff/tasmotas based on Insteon failure and as soon as I see matter working I'll got to EISY/Matter and probably replace the remaining Insteon devices. The ability to integrate with Alexa and Siri is relevant here due to WAF and kids... Thanks
  7. MFBra started following Matter for Dummies?
  8. MFBra replied to Ristin's topic in ZMatter
    I’m thrilled to hear that Matter is taking off! I’ve got a pretty reliable setup with ISY994, Homebridge, and polyglot. I can control Insteon and Sonoff/tasmota devices seamlessly through Alexa and Siri. Now, I’m eagerly waiting for Matter to come along and overhaul everything. Hopefully, it’ll mean the end of those pesky Insteon devices that keep failing.

    Just to inform I've found a solution... Removed and reinstalled everything on my RPi and at this time, don't ask me why... the option "SSL" in the ISY node server configuration was unchecked again, but now it was somehow "respected".... Did it several times before in the previous install. Thank you all for the great help ! Wish you all a Great 2023!

    Hi, Thanks @Geddy Had a great support from Michael, but unfortunately it's related to TLS and no luck so far. Brief description about the environment * ISY (5.3.4) - DHCP Enabled - Portal Working / On the ISY dashboard / networking config : TLS set to V1.2 both on server and client (haven't changed) - option to Verify Unchecked * Raspberry PI v4b : - PolyGlot V2 Installed - MQTT Node Installed After setup, I can see the node server on ISY, I create all the nodes and update its status coming from MQTT/Polyglot. But if I try to send ON/OFF from ISY or even click on Re-Discover or Query (inside the node controller) I receive those messages posted in the begginig. I've shared all the logs with @xKing and today with Michael. It's confirmed ISY can receive updates (as I can see) and with the ISY errors that is related with TLS. Now I'm digging the web to find a solution.. trying sites like this to source information : https://sites.google.com/site/cartwrightraspberrypiprojects/home/steps/disable-unsecure-tls-and-ssl?pli=1 I'm just don't believe a simple environment ("vanila Raspberry PI") can create so much difficulties. Hopping someone already solved this in the past and may have clue.

    Thanks.. 1) Firmware 5.3.0 but same behavior on 5.3.4 2) UI and firmware match on both cases, and now double-checked on 5.3.4 3) It's a node server to control lamp switches. So ON/OFF is just to turn them on/off... 4) Trying to do it on the java console, ISY is connected to Node Server, the status of each item on node server get updated to ISY (physically turning them on, gets updated to isy, but I cannot send any command from isy to them, so no programing or scenes are possible 5) Yes MAC OS, but I'm a long term user of it, never created any problem for me with ISY over more than ~10 years 6) Yes, from Brazil Already looked into the errors but found no clue in how to fix it. Tried with @xKing because it's involving a node server wrote from him, but after sharing some info, the issue was narrowed down to a point where ISY receives updates from the node, but cannot "start or send" communication/commands. I've really digged into several pages here, could not find some clear answer to it... I don't recall having to open a ticket so far, but I'll do it. THANKs !!!!

    A new error I got today.
  13. MFBra posted a topic in ISY994
    I've been struggling to solve this issue and thanks to xKing (really thanks), we've narrowed down the issue a point that without ISY knowledge I cannot move forward. So thanks for the valuable help from this community. It's a node server issue, where the ISY receives all node information, but when I try to issue commands (ON/OF) or query from ISY, I get this error. And here the error log. I filtered out the repeated lines Thank you in advance!

  14. I’ve fixed It by disabling the auto-open option here. https://9to5mac.com/2019/06/25/mac-automatically-opening-downloads/
  15. Installed on my Pi2 and everything went ok, but I'm struggling to get my 2 Insteon Dual On/Off Outlet (2663-222), its a dual outlet but homebridge only show the first outlet (of each of them) in the assessories and they do not show up in HomeKit neither. In the home bridge log it seems to be ok for both of them.
