As long as they are state variables like you named and indicated it will trigger on a change to either variable. Off the point and not a suggestion, I learned to program years ago so it’s funny to me seeing the short variable names. Mine would be named Indoor_Air_Quality_State.

I see that you fixed it issue. I utilize Insteon scenes and the protocol keeps them in sync almost instantly if you have good comms. This is especially true if all devices are dual band. Were you getting cases where remote device did not set keypad button light that were in a scene together or you don’t use scenes with keypad button and remote device are in a scene together?

Two main issues with Insteon devices. There is a general lack of stock on all devices and it’s unclear (at least to me) if it’s related to supply chain issues or that Smartlabs is moving away from them to a new line in partnership with Nokia. Smartlabs very possibly will/ has discontinue(d) the 2413S due to lack of demand. From what I’ve researched, ISY users are about the only group still dependent on it and primarily due to failures not new installs. Other platforms supported both the serial and usb version or only the usb version. Twelve years ago when I started using Insteon, every PC had built in serial ports but no motherboard I’ve seen has had them in years. The ISY on Polisy supports both serial and usb. I’m looking to either find another reasonable protocol if Insteon ends. I like the look and reliability of Lutron so new RA3 is in my sights. It may depend on if a nodeserver can be developed for it or it gets native support on Polisy. I’ve got lots of Insteon spares so time for it or another better option to arise. In my opinion,for the long term, it has to go from a diy/luxury install to something builders install on a regular basis. I have not had any success with Z-Wave except 2 Schlage deadbolts and it required 5 repeaters to get them reliable. Tried to move to 500 series and spent two full days before moving back to 300 series. However others have great success with it. From reading here and other places it appears you have to have a dense mesh for success. My house is full of Insteon devices so mixing them is not an option now. I have a 700 series zwave usb stick for polisy and will try again with it.

PLM is basically two PCBs. The main PCB has a switching power supply with both undersized and cheap capacitors and appears to be identical between 2413S and 2413U PLMS. The other PCB is either a serial daughter board or USB daughter board. The main PCB is typical failure point and can be repaired by replacing the power supply capacitors or pulling the serial daughter board on the 2413S and putting it in a 2413U. There may be a few other devices that share the same main board as in the irrigation controller.

If you’re capable of soldering, replacing the caps is a simple and highly effective fix. The hardest part for most is removing the existing ones.

I’ve read about doing this on many occasions. What revisions are the PLMs. The couple PLMs and 7 access points I’ve repaired had room to install the large capacitor straight up but it did not leave room for one screw in that corner to be reinstalled holding the PCB in casing.

You need to read link before commenting. The device pings an outside IP address and when there is no response it power cycles the devices.

See if this article helps you for the future. https://www.homecamcafe.com/remotely-reboot-a-modem-or-router/ The more sophisticated device has been replaced with following. https://www.amazon.com/MSNSwitch-Internet-Enabled-Remote-Switch/dp/B081TKJJBS

Go to this topic and find header for Install. The first download link is what I think you’re looking for. Follow instructions from there on and since new no pesky upgrade needed. /topic/33287-release-534-test-build-is-now-available/

No big deal since all new. Just download correct firmware and load it. Are you going to go with latest 5.3.4?

I’ve used DSC 1864 panel through NodeLink or DSCLink before it for 9 or 10 years — excellent integration.

Thanks for great explanation!

It may be here somewhere but I can’t find it. What is architecturally different between PG2 and PG3 nodeservers? My old guess was that if ISY and Polygot are both on Polisy, node updates would be direct inside the box instead of via network. However, it sounds like standalone ISY can talk to PG3.

What’s running only at that time of year? Irrigation for example?

Is this not it and in stock? H

Is this not the plus version? Zooz 700 Series Z-Wave Plus S2 USB Stick ZST10 700 That’s what Michel linked.

Thanks, that’s what I thought but I never purposely clear it except for ISY FW upgrades. Ill look over settings to see if some sort of auto clear setting.

Where are they stored? Mine get overwritten or deleted regularly.

I’d stop factory resetting things and enter a support ticket with UD.

Insteon 2448A7 + RaspberryPi + ISY994? https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink/topic?share_fid=23986&share_tid=32546&share_pid=315419&url=https://forum.universal-devices.com/index.php?/topic/32546-Insteon-2448A7-%2B-RaspberryPi-%2B-ISY994%3F/page__view__findpost__p__315419&share_type=t&link_source=app It’s post 40 in this thread.

If you restore with same PLM, it does not update any device except for the PLM. Only takes a few minutes.

Yes. I tested with it and there is a post with images.

You’re at the limit of links so even if not root of this problem, you’ll likely need to review scenes to reclaim some space. My guess is you’ve used lots of scenes. Was the switch in question a recent addition? Another thing to try is to restore plm from ISY to see if you get back any orphan links. Can you pull switch from wall and attach to wiring harness shown above and plug in to same outlet as plm ?

The listing feature does a get next link from the plm link n order to provide count. If an Insteon message arrives while it’s in progress, the plm will resume listing the records at where that located record is not the last place it was at in simple list feature. If the record accessed comes before where the listing had progressed, you get an artificial high count. If it comes after where you had progressed, you’ll get a low count. With lots of devices it is hard to get an accurate count, you have to make sure no one turns on a light or a motion sensor is tripped or a leak sensor sends a heartbeat signal. You had a more recent plm than original install so you’ve had to do a plm replace which would get rid of orphan records. So given that one of the counts was close to the recreated baseline of 991, you probably didn’t have orphan records and you’re near the limit. That said, I’d try it again a few more times to see if you can get a consistent count. If you’re at the limit, typically the only thing you can do is eliminate scene. Some report creating many scenes for different lighting moods. In those cases, you might be able to use alter scene in a program to get what you needs. It’s not as slick/fast as scenes but might get desired result but with a little lag as programs are not instantaneous. Try adding the device and see what you get.

Is your PLM a model 2412S or 2413S? 2412 had less than 500 links. Although I’d say it’s a record if you have still have a working 2412.
