While it won't help at the moment, Insteon announced that a new PLM is coming, hopefully this summer/year. One of the features is a bigger links table.

Are you using the app? Have you tried editing with iox/admin console? Are you using insteon? Lights that turn on but not off can be the symptom of a line noisy load like a transformer or motor. When the insteon switch turns the noisy device on, it starts up and creates line noise that overwhelms the switch's electronics. Could you answer those questions, and then post one program that shows one problem?

Ok, you'll need 2 programs <Program 1> Computer Cabinet once an hour If <no statement> Then Repeat every 1 hour Run If Program Computer cabinet <Program 2> Computer Cabinet <your current program> Notes: Set the first program to run on start up Disable program 2 so it does not run automatically What this will do is the the ISY will run program 1 when its started Program 1 will run once an hour Program one will call program 2 Program 2 is disabled so it will only run when program 1 calls it

Add a Repeat statement as the first statement under then. One of the options is "Repeat Every" set that to 30 minutes. The statements under Repeat will indent Note that when the conditions of the If are no longer true, it will stop. In this program, it should bounce back and forth between then and else... which I think is your intent

I had to reboot my new eisy several times to get it recognized. Then it was fine

Another possibility is that the PLM is going bad. How old is it? There's a sticker on it with 4 numbers that documents the mfg dates, you can post those.

Not sure about it being eisy only since there was one recent big software update that included all of it for both eisy and policy It will be web pages that provide the functionality that the admin console currently does. We have to use our imaginations as to what it will look like. I'm fairly confident it will not be a remote terminal session to a Java version of the admin console. While the core ISY functionality as an home automation server will likely remain java, the web service that provides the functionality won't be built on java... likely built on what pg3x uses.

Some eisys are having problems upgrading but UDI is quick to help fix. Submit a ticket and UDI will get you running https://www.universal-devices.com/my-tickets/

Would this be the first time you tried that particular combo, it may have been "broken" in migration? In my experience with insteon & plms on several different HA systems, links can break: From migrations from one controller/plm to another Sometimes powerline fluctuations and/or age of device can cause a controller to forget some of its scene programming. For me it was mostly keypads, but it happened with other devices too

To reference the right variable, here's how to interpret the 2 parameters after /rest/vars/set/ above: the first is whether the variable is an integer or state variable: 1=integer, 2=state the second is the number identification of the variable. You find this by looking in iox at variables and on the left side of the list for the number in front of the row of the variable you want to affect. In the example provided above, /rest/vars/set/1/60/.... the 1 means it's an integer variable and 60 means is the variable identification 60 in the iox integer variable list. The ${sys.node....... is the z wave node identifier.

That's a great suggestion.. in pg3x and also as an iox node/device that can be changed via drop down: Local only Cloud only Auto as suggested by Panda88-Cloud if connected, local if disconnected.

Ok thanks. let's break it into pieces First, do you have a way to tell if the camect system is able to detect the USPS truck on it's own, like with an app? Another test is to see if the mail notification is working a expected. In iox, right click on the program and pick Run Then. This will force the other to run and see if the mail notification configuration is working. Try those 2 things and let us know how it went

We'll need more info to help. Can you say how you've tried to approach it? Can you copy your programs and paste them in a post here so we can ask better questions?

I got the paid for notification plug-in and have it send notifications to the pushover app on my Android phone and iPad. I also have my router and other fw upgrade notices sent there, works well and timely

It's been a while since sending things through gmail... but my recollection is that individual relay devices have to be authenticated, one time for this kind of use. Since the eisy is new, that may not have happened https://medium.com/@josewebdev/gmail-email-service-setup-for-code-based-email-sending-8b77d7c0a3c0

I'd suggest biting the bullet and moving to the paid for notification plug-in with the pushover app vs texts. The problem is the mobile carriers not wanting the traffic, not the iox method of trying to get it there

The only insteon outdoor module I'm aware of is a relay based on/off module... This one: 2634-222

If the load of the lights, in watts, is higher than the switch rating, the switch likely won't last

Hmmm. Are you hearing a little click sound when it switches? If no, it's still a dimmer. When you change the setting to relay in iox, you have to push the button to the left of the setting for it to take.

Yes, and you remove the triac dimmer from the equation It's worth a try and easy to do.

I'd still try the lamp module test. Can't hurt

It probably depends if you have a 'legacy' 6/8 button keypad or a new 4 button

Is the separate building on the same electrical service? A test is to take a lamp module and lamp, put it out there and see what's what

i3 devices have extra features and UDI added them to a flags node. Yhey aren't typically needed after setup. In IoX, I put them all in their own folder, I don't see them in udm
