The rebuild comment was meant for the scene. Take a picture of or write down the current scene in the ISY. Create a new scene, under the link menu, on eisy and drag the related devices in
-
A couple of other things related to the iolinc: If the io linc is old, it could be failing. Unhook the light sensor and try completing the circuit several times to see if you get consistent operation directly The io linc is single band, powerline signals only. Something could have been added to you electrical system that is intermittently blocking the signal to the plm. Try temporarily plugging a dual band plug in device like a lamplimc behind the iolinc and see if things improve
-
You could, but I would simply look at the original and rebuild it from scratch on eisy... It will take less time
-
What does the plm links look like? I would pick a few wired in and plug in modules and individually right-click on them and pick "restore device" and retest devices. Did that help?
-
PLM Links and iox links. Can you post those 2?. They should compare identically, or close to it. I can see only 2 links in the picture and one of the 000s. That's not good. Also, what does PLM Info/status say when you look at it? Where this could be going is that the last back-up you had, backed up a corrupted link table from a failing PLM. Do you have other, older backups?
-
Under Tools/Diagnostics there are options to see PLM links and ISY links. Can you capture and post both of those?
-
Start iox and turn on the event viewer level 3... And try to be in view of it. Repeat you tests while watching the event viewer.. how many entries show up per switch action... First time vs against presses
-
All great questions that don't have answers yet. The link you provided is all that can be known at this time. When they're certain its good to roll out, we'll get a post with all the answers.

Need some clarity, your ultimate goal is to upgrade the 994 to eisy and sunset the 994? If yes: Don't upgrade or make changes to the 994i Set up the eisy There are 2 PLM variants: USB version can go ~10' Serial can go ~50'... + UDI offers a serial > usb adapter I would get a new USB PLM for the eisy Set up eisy with the new PLM How many programs do you have and how big are they? If not a lot of programs and not that big, re-enter them into the eisy as you migrate devices, one room or one function at a time Come up with a plan to move one room or function of Insteon devices at a time to eisy Delete a room or group/function of IInsteon devices from the 994 Add them to the eisy and verify Add related scenes and programs Give it time to verify everything works Go to the next room or function Not clear on the wiring need of the ezio, but you should be able to get a 50' CAT 5 or greater cable to work

The journey that got you to this point is not clear. What steps did you take to get to that point?

First, do you have Lutron's serial command spec, is publicly available, not proprietary? If yes, it will require some digging, but it's plausible. There are products that can accept REST calls and communicate serially. eISY Network Resources can generate REST calls: iox program statement > Network Resource > Your network > Network/Serial controller > Homeworks. Here are some Network/Serial controllers to look at: Lantronix XPort or UDS: These are industrial serial-to-Ethernet device servers that allow serial devices to connect to a network and be controlled via IP. Lantronix also offers some models with built-in web interfaces. USR-TCP232: A series of low-cost serial-to-Ethernet converters, with REST API support. Moxa NPort: A widely-used serial-to-Ethernet gateway with various models that support different protocols, including HTTP/REST API for controlling serial devices over the network. Raspberry Pi. Petty sure it has a serial UART on it. There'll be tons of examples to search for but you're likely looking a python coding to receive the eisy's Network Resource call and turn it into RS232 commands Also, figuring out the RS-232 pin out will be required for any solution. It's going to be a bit of technical exercise

I use http://<ISY local ip address>:3000 ( not https: ) as the pg3x server is located there. It will give security warnings but I move through them as it's a local only connection. Try that in a browser window. I don't know why iox sent you where it did.
-
Not sure exactly what you're looking to do. You can right click on the scene name and see the options. You can also "click and drag" devices in to scenes as well as scene members.

Scene turned on by a program wont go to a brightness level
paulbates replied to JJJ's topic in IoX Program Support
Can you post the scene in question? -
The portal can support multiple devices. Add the eisy and maintain both as long as you need to.

Guidance on turning on/off an LG TV (C2 Model) via eisy?
paulbates replied to dwengrovitz's topic in eisy
I've had Samsung and LG tvs.. I think you have to enable something on the tv to allow it to use local network discovery, something in the tv's menu -
Guidance on turning on/off an LG TV (C2 Model) via eisy?
paulbates replied to dwengrovitz's topic in eisy
Take this as something to try. I've been giving ChatGPT more of a chance on technical solutions. It took a couple of iterations, but I asked it specifically about LG TVs and ISY network resources. Here's what it said. Based on my use of network resources, it looks close to try easily: Name: Turn Off LG TV Protocol: HTTP URL: http://192.168.x.x:3000/ir/remote_control Method: POST Body: {"type":"KEY_POWER"} I'll be curious how close it got. I think LG TVs are toggle, meaning the "off" command will also be the "on" command. This was the whole answer where it was close: -
Yes, that's discussed in the posts.
-
Take a look at these threads where the plugin author explains what's going on and is working on fixes that are available in the beta as things get resolved. Have you tried the beta version described there?
-
Try picking a device that's not working and perform a restore device, retest
-
It's hard to know as @Techman points out. When you launch iox from the launcher, do you pick the "Cloud" option from the finder? This would refresh iox itself if something happened to it due to adding dev packages. If that doesn't work, do the "generic" clear cache, reinstall java and iox.
-
Do you think the iox console was popping up on that second monitor all along. Not 100% sure from the posts if freezing means you could see it, but it wouldn't respond... or you never saw it.

Programs which trigger on Fast on and Fast Off not working
paulbates replied to interactii's topic in ISY994
How old is the plm? Insteon devices, especially the plm can be affected, damaged by power blips and age doesn't help. There's a sticker on the back with 4 digits, what are those digits? -
6 nines? That's ~30 seconds of total downtime a YEAR on a product that costs $24. The reality is we don't experience that much downtime, most of it planned and announced. Let's let the team fix and they'll let us know.

Around 7am et my Alexa said she couldn't reach the hub, something like that. UDM said it couldn't connect. Rebooted eisy. I think that's a first for me, having to reboot my ISY to get it to respond. But everything else appeared to be working locally Everything works now
