It’s likely handled as if it were an eISY program behind the scenes.

To be clear, I looked at it on UD Mobile to post about number of Insteon devices. All counts were 0. I then went to restart it and saw it was disconnected and a message about upgrade being available. Upgraded and it still was disconnected.

I’ll definitely post results but sorry to pre-disappoint as they are all mains powered. I had read something similar on the results as they only talk to hub and are not constantly repeating within the mesh. I may consider expanding zwave usage if it all works as expected. I’m a big Insteon user with between75 and a 100 devices. I got into zwave for deadbolts and then expanded it when Insteon SyncroLincs died. At this point, the only important devices are for energy reporting needs. Retired zwave deadbolts a few years ago.

Same here.

Thanks, Michel. They are on my desk awaiting their install!

Thanks. I’m looking so forward to repositioning my very small zwave network from mesh to star topology with 6.1.2 Long Range update. Most of my zwave network is there only to provide mesh for critical devices that provide energy information to detect that the device is currently pulling current.

Did you update date from the Staging repo?

Thanks. If I get more serious about it and you will do it, I’ll be the tester. Hypothetically, any chance it could overlap the DSC version so I could install it in same slot to retain devices etc and not have to rework a bunch of programming?

Thanks. Is adding that tpi something you would consider doing? I’m assuming it would be a third plugin based on the EVL?

I’m considering replacing my pC1864 panel with Eyez-On Uno panel. Has anyone done this and how did replacement go? Also, did it work well with this plugin. I assume it would given they both use the EVL interface from Eyez-On..

I’ve not seen it discussed here (could have missed it) but starting with 6.1.1 from Michel’s release notes there is a built in restore point that enables us to revert back to the prior version if something happens during an upgrade. Look at eISY-ui System Boot environment. My upgrades have always been fine but it’ll be beyond value if one ever fails. My home is run by eISY. Saying happy wife happy life. Add to that happy eISY I’m not too busy.

Can’t be wait to use it to write programs (maybe not as I enjoy using the brain cells) and do research. Thanks, Michel.

In the new eisl-ui, there are 3 update repositories. Production, Beta, and Staging. This give UD the ability to tell you they could use your help or you need a feature/fix not yet ready for all users the Beta level or in rare cases the Staging level. The reason I asked is the 6.1.2 only shows under the Staging level from my view.

ARe you using the Staging Repo?

Just updated. Took about 15 minutes from start to reboot! First look at programs in eisy-ui looks good. Great job UD team!

I have it and it works with the Rin plugin.

What version of eISY and FreeBSD are you currently running. If it’s old, that’s when a full usb stick is required.

I have REST with local username and password using port 8080 on eISY

Thanks, Javi. Is I the fix for this coming relatively soon? Not rushing.

I will do the upgrade this weekend. Can anyone comment on the enhancement to scenes?

FWIW I’ve got a couple of the simplenet ezrain 8 zone controllers if you’re interested in a parts box if you’re interested.

I don’t know if MobiLinc still works. The last time I used it, it still worked. You could move back but I’d be surprised if that was needed since you only have Insteon it should be a slam dunk. Just make sure your PLM is either USB version or get the USB to serial device. Locate the official directions and follow them. UD Mobile works great and is what replace MobiLinc for me. I only used geo fencing with it a bit and dont know how extensive your setup is. Alexa does not require MobiLinc. You will use UD Portal. If you are using MobiLinc for that you’ll have to remove it and add the Alexa Skill for UD Mobile and enter in your spokens. Lite just has less RAM-and disk. R2 was spec’d before the price of RAM and ssd drastically increased so UD simply decreased them to all that was actually needed for most users needs to get price lower.

So I’m clear, what do you need to remove from local settings so it will only use portal?

@Goose66 i went ahead and added it and ran discovery. It show up immediately! The attributes shown are Temperature and Battery Level. Is Connection status in the Venstar API so it could potentially be added to the node server?

@Goose66 Does the node server support details like connection status and battery % for the WiFi remote sensor? I was doing a few searches before I considered installing one that I’ve had in box for years to see if it did that in skyport and came across a post that it was available in Home Assistant.
