  1. Thanks for the Node server. I water my lawn leading up to sunrise so no other water is used at that time. I’d like to calculate water usage between sprinklers on and sprinklers off. It’s not clear if current variables could do this but from watching them with sink turned on and off it’s not clear to me. If already possible, how? If not, could it be added?
  2. I like this dimmer and it says you can make an Insteon style (scene) 3+ way circuit within switches which I’ve always loved in Insteon dimmers. I’ll read more about that feature and how new IoP fw release may be exposing access to it. I’ve been following aotec for a few years but issue was they never released some devices they announced, always out of stock or couldn’t get them in the US (eg garage door controller). I like their technology but above made me suspect long term viability. Are you a heavy user of their products and comfortable with the company?
  3. Having a default on level is not mysterious as a dimmers on level can be set. How it got set may be a mystery. [emoji3]
  4. I bought some here. Not sure about conversion rate or shipping to Canada. https://ldsdimming.com/collections/led-dimming-stabilizer
  5. Io_guy will help you in detail but you need to run Make sure you ran the install script as the standard update from gui does not move you to .net 5 Execute http://ISY/rest/ns/1/nodes/n001_ven2/change/Venstar?nls=140V to change the second thermostat. Hi

  7. The whole bunch of writing and can’t find sounds like queued up commands on ISY. Were they successful? First off, I’d open a ticket UDI. Sounds like plm, ISY and maybe the Insteon devices are not in sync. I don’t think the restore plm was successful. Did you watch the event viewer? Other than the huge queue it trying to write. My thought would be to factory reset the plm and then restore plm again to at least get ISY and plm in sync but some of that sriting could be to the devices where it replaces the plm address in them. Do you have an ISY backup just before you started this process? … Contact UDI.
  8. I couldn’t think what MCU stood for but thought it was most logical choice and I was too lazy to look it up. Lol, so installed all. Of course knowing I could uninstall and be more diligent next time. It worked perfect on FW upgrade and took less than minute.
  9. In the install step, I had to install all before ZWave PC Controller showed up under tools. It is setting a driver that views the Zooz USBstick as a Com: port. If your PC already has real Com: ports or USB to Com convertor ports, could there be a conflict?
  10. Did you follow step exactly in article?
  11. It’s Verizon. They changed their service level agreement for using @vext.com. Search for it on Google.
  12. I hope you’ve got a good backup. If so reset the ISY and then follow steps including clearing Java cache to install 4.9. Should be able to restore good backup with minimal rebuilding.
  13. I’ve got some caps I can sell you.
  14. For large scale conversions, I always save all programs to a text file so I can use it to plan the conversion and as a reference point for during the update.
  15. I waited a couple hours before I power cycled but then had sinking feeling it might have been FW update. You are best engineer so you likely planned for this user error or a power failure while FW update in progress. Any chance I screwed it up or anything I should look at to confirm? .. or did flashing green mean FW updated so please power cycle? As always, thanks. Looking forward to going all Polisy soon.
  16. I noticed the left green LED was blinking but all on polyglot appear to be running fine. I restarted Polisy and it still blinked. Eventually, I power cycled and it’s no longer blinking and all still working. What does a blinking leftbLED mean for future reference? Could find it by searching and in wiki. Not beyond just missing it. Lol Thanks

    RIP My original ISY994 power supply passed away quietly yesterday. … Sound of Taps being played … Ode to scene in movie “A Christmas Story” and in no way a disrespect to those that have served our country.
  18. There are 5 capacitors that need to be replaced. Most recent list compiled by resident expert Brian H. C7 and C13. 100uF/50V or 10uF/50V. Earlier ones where 10uF. Smarthome changed to 100uF. May have to lay 100uF on it side. Most are using 100uF/50V for the 10uF/50V. https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/EPCOS-TDK/B41858C6107M000?qs=ziqVJVjjmkzaaRB22pWdiA%3D%3D. https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Panasonic/EEU-FR1H100?qs=tfZGHB2PWd1NAbdNSgjToQ%3D%3D C3 10uF/400V https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/647-UPW2G100MHD1TO?r=647-UPW2G100MHD1TO C8 10uF/16V https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Nichicon/USV1C100MFD?qs=6UFrbFY2dcTclg9NCH6OBw%3D%3D C11 100uF/25V https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Nichicon/UTT1E101MPD?qs=isV%2BNJxyrb747oJy1YayIg%3D%3D
  19. I’ve got lots of respect for contributions on this forum. Respectfully, could this be a separate topic? While related, it’s not at the core of what seems most would be looking for when reading this thread. If you disagree, feel free to say. I’m not trying to prolong and will not be replying.
  20. Another alternative is GCLInk by io_guy. I’ve been using it for years as a supplement to ISY IR. It’s a windows console app and I have a HTPC server where it runs. I’m guessing with a little investigating it would run on a RPI.
  21. A leak sensor sends a heartbeat signal once every 24 hours. When the signal is received, the program executes the Then clause and starts waiting. After waiting 25 hours, it sends a notification that the battery must be low. If it had received another heartbeat the 25 hour wait would start over. This is more of a hint because often times the rf signal is simply missed so I don’t look unless it misses for 2 days.
  22. You may already be way beyond this point , but most failures are fixed by replacing 5 capacitors that are higher rated and rated for a switching power supply. They are listed in this long thread but some are hard to locate some right now.
  23. If you have ability, I’d upgrade capacitors in both units. They fail like PLMs. The one you got was manufactured 23rd week of 2012.
  24. Thanks. Glad it’s same chip so cap values should be good. Yep, I got lucky on neutral but was prepared (in my mind) to replace it if too short.
