  1. The update to 5.3.2 appears to be flawless. Thank you for the update!
  2. Have you done this? - If the admin console is slow to respond, it is likely you need to increase the amount of memory allocated to the Java runtime (JRE). - Open the Java Control Panel, select Java tab, press View button, then add or modify the Runtime Parameter -Xmx to the following: o -Xmx512m - Press Ok to close the window, then Press Apply to save the changes
  3. Here's the correct link.
  4. The information on how to replace the plm is in the wiki https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:File_Menu#Replace_Modem_.28PLM.29
  5. You should be using ISY Launcher to access your ISY. Here's information on the ISY Launcher.

    Thank you. That explains it. I guess I'll just have to buy new toys. I hate it when that happens!

    I use Fire Tablets with Agave and it appears UD Mobile isn't compatible. Thank you!

    Will UD Mobile be available for tablets? Currently I am unable to download UD Mobile to my tablets. Thank you!
  9. How far is your ISY from the devices you are trying to add? You may need to get the ISY closer to your ISY or your ISY closer to the devices you want to add.
  10. I've had no problems with it. I have the same ISY as you.
  11. I don't know when it changed. Maybe it didn't. I've never got the notification in the seven years I've had ISYs.
  12. You won't be notified of a firmware update. Here's the 5.3.0 uodate info.
  13. @asbrilI'm not sure to whom you are directing this. I have everything you mentioned. My comment was directed to seattlestexan. My confusion is if everything is working fine, why is he here with a problem?
  14. Your Firmware and UI have to match you are attempting to us 5.0.16 firmware with 4.6.2 UI. This information can be found on the first page of the firmware. Here's the link: Follow the instructions to a "T"!!!

    Yes.

    My experience has been that in most cases when you have an organization like Z-Wave Alliance create a protocol designed for many manufacturers, they allow manufacturers to add a certain amount custom features to their products. Android is example of this. Android allows phone manufacturers carriers to add their own features to the Android system. Companies like Insteon and Apple have proprietary protocols. All products are manufactured by them so there's no opportunity for other manufacturers to add features. Thus their products are all going work basically the same.

    The age old question in sales, would you rather sell razors or razor blades? I think the same thing holds true for Insteon, they really want to sell devices. Hubs are how they sell their devices. Insteon hubs are a much easier way to get into home automation due to price and ease of use. Some people like that. My guess is, Insteon loves the sales of their devices that are generated through other manufacturer's hubs as well. It would be interesting to know the percentage of their device sales that are used in other than Insteon hubs. My guess is, it's significant enough they wouldn't want to lose that business. From what I am hearing the home automation business had a pretty good year. I tend to believe that. In my area, hiring a contractor for almost anything last year was very difficult. They were all swamped with business. I would bet the increased demand along with the supply issues due to Covid have created the supply problems for Insteon.
  18. The ISY Launcher requires an internet connection.
  19. I installed the app and it's working very well. Being able to monitor node server data on my phone is what sets this app apart from others for me. Thank you!
  20. @bpwwer, @MrBill, @maxnorth Using the information you all provided, I have grouped the AQI readings in 25 point ranges from 0 to 175. Whenever it changes from one range to another I am notified. It's working as intended. Thanks again for your insight. Here is an example of my programs. Program 1 EPA AQUI 100-125 - [ID 008E][Parent 0001] If 'Polyglot / Purple Air AQI / Outside' EPA AQI > 100 And 'Polyglot / Purple Air AQI / Outside' EPA AQI < 126 Then $Aqui_100_125 = 1 Else $Aqui_100_125 = 0 Program 2 AQI 100-125 Notification - [ID 0094][Parent 0001] If $Aqui_100_125 is 1 Then Send Notification to 'Email' content 'EPA_Aqui_100_125' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
  21. That's very interesting, @maxnorth. Thank you!
  22. Thank you @bpwwer and @MrBill. Much appreciated.
  23. I have the program below to alert me when the EPA AQUI is over 100. It works fine. Right now I get continuous updates as long as the AQUI is over 100. I would like to change the program so I get notified once when AQUI goes over 100 and then again when the AQUI goes under 100. . Here's my current program. EPA AQUI Greater Than 100 - [ID 0088][Parent 0001] If 'Polyglot / Purple Air AQI / Outside' EPA AQI > 100 Then Send Notification to 'Email' content 'EPA AQUI Greater Than 100' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Thank you!
