I’ve had this happen a couple times. In my case the ISY appeared to be stuck in linking mode. I rebooted and then power cycled it but I think in the end the ISY just timed out of linking mode. I pulled air gap on new switch so not sure what finally fixed it. I then starting link mode again after I factory reset the switch.

See page 13 of following manual on how to set reversing valve mode between O/B so it will cool. http://cache.insteon.com/documentation/2732-xx2-en.pdf

In the thread you listed, I posted about testing a 2413U and it works in same configuration as the wireless PLM.

GPIO nodeserver looks like it but I haven’t used it. Also a relay board like: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DR9SE4A/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apip_6LmWveA9NhssY There are smaller versions depending on number of relays needed.

Before I start, the following is a kludge I’l used years ago. Way before nodes, polyglot and Polisy. I took RF remotes apart and soldered the button contact points to relays. I used an IR controlled relay board but same could be done with a RPi relay board. When IR or network command for RPi is sent, it momentarily close the relay which mimics a button press. If you can hide setup and cost of extra remotes is not an issue, it works great but is far from elegant. I know nothing about zigbee and interfacing to it so Keep looking for better but as a backup…

You are correct.

I wrote following conservative guide to move from 4.x to 5.x https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/26381-upgrade-from-473-to-5015a-task-list/

I fixed 2 of 3 2443 access points. I had 2 version 2.1 that only had 4 capacitors. One worked and the other didn’t L1 on the one that didn’t fix, blinks green, looks suspect. Is it a known failure point on that version?

Agreed. Michel and UDI are the very best I’ve ever worked with!

Is your ISY backup file corrupt or the SD card?

MrWorf, Thank you for trail blazing. As we have suspected, it works with a 2413U. I added a LampLinc to my backup ISY and then turned it off and on several times. See images.

Typo. Lol

Fabulous! I hope to get solder gun out and hook up to duplicate with the2413U. I had been reading about boot times so it’s great that you’ve found excellent resources to get rid of extra processes.

Congratulations! I’ve got all the parts today. I’ll work to duplicate using the 2413U in next couple days.

Sounds good. The 2413U as suspected does not provide any power. Be interested to see if you can get power from ISY.

Fantastic! I’m going to start work on seeing if I can apply this to the 2413U. One question … which RS232 to TTL adapter do you plan to use? I plan to use onboard RPi UART so I don’t think I’ll need it but it may make it more reliable. Edit. I ran it on rpi3 and it found the internal serial ttyAMA0 and the usbserial ttyUSB0 of the 2413U! The breakout connector you listed will be here tonight and I’ve got a backup ISY. I’ll add a lamplinc to it for a very simple test.

Both USB ports can power the RPi Zero wireless. The one marked power does not have data pins.

Gotcha. I found a few cases to 3D print to keep it contained.

That’s what I thought. I haven’t looked yet but feels like PiZero should be able to get power from the PLM USB port. Also, I look to see if any cases for pizero have been uploaded to thingiverse.com to modify or use as is.

Congratulations. Do you think the same would apply to a 2413U dual band usb PLM? I ordered one and about to set off on what you’ve done for this device. I’ll wait to see GitHub!

You can’t replace since they do not match. You can look in the admin console when you select the device and it will display which scenes they are a controller and a responder. Even better you can generate a topology in a document. In programs you can find by the device name. I’d copy all programs to clipboard and then paste into a text document. Then you can locate each program with the device name after deleting them and then fix programs like before likely with the same name.

Restore the switches via ISY. You’ve likely got a link in the switches that’s not in the ISY.

Thank you!I glad you located a good equivalent for the C7 and C13.

Brian. This thread has grown so long and you’re the expert. Would you consider a recap (pardon the pun) of which capacitors to be replaced and the best replacement parts from say mouser? It looks like the need to repair is going to increase and it would be a big help for first timers.
