I figured out that somehow, when I installed Polisy V3 onto my unit, it logged Polisy V2 out of my ISY. I don't know how it happened but when I fixed my username and password, it fixed the Weatherflow nodeserver and now the data flows nicely from the Polisy V2 Weatherflow nodeserver into the ISY. problem solved. Thank you and sorry for crying wolf.

I was using "WeatherFlow" nodeserver and it was working beautifully inside of Polisy v2. I then used the instructions that i found in the forum to add Polisy version 3 to my Polisy. I'm not sure if it is a coincidence, but now when I look inside Polisy v2, the data is stuck (does not update). of note, I see that I could buy the same "Weatherflow" nodeserver inside of Polisy v3 but there is no "buy" button available there, probably because I already "own" it in Polisy v2. Any suggestions or solutions to gettinvg my "Weatherflow" nodeserver up and running? I'm happy to pay the $10, by the way.

so, can someone explain to me what the difference between polyglot and polisy is? Does polyglot run in the cloud and polisy runs on my polisy "computer" at home? if so, why have it running at home if it can run on the cloud? If PG3 is polyglot 3 then I guess polyglot doesn't run on the cloud because it's running on my Polisy now. also: what is PG, PG2, and PG3 relative to one another. I understand that PG3 now permits people to charge for their nodeservers (which is surely good because it'll motivate people to make them and make them well). I guess I need a "for dummies" explanation for this stuff so I can understand it better. (I have a Polisy, and have 6 nodeservers running on it, if that is correct terminology.)

I was thinking of trying to move my ISY to "ISY on Polisy" this weekend. it's a snowy weekend here. I'd like to have a recommendation as to how to do so if anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

@GeddyThank you for your kind reply and help! one problem that I had was that .jnlp was no longer associated with the correct file type and I had to figure what to set it to javaws.exe detailed explanation I have no idea how that file association was removed but I had updated java.

I believe that there should be a wiki or a "how to" moving from ISY to ISY on Polisy. here, i'll try to type one up real quick and someone can tell me where i'm wrong. presumptions: -isy is up and running. -isy on polisy is up and running. -planning on using the same plm on the "isy on polisy" as i was on "isy". steps: 1) take backup from ISY using "backup ISY" 2) use "restore backup" on "ISY on Polisy" to load up the backup created in #1. is it that simple? does the backup need to be from the same firmware on ISY as it is on "ISY on Polisy"? Thank you, someguy

I don't see where 5.3.0 is or has the migration tool? also, I got the same problem that the image shows above where I had a mismatch of the admin console and the Isy.

I'm ready for it when it is available.

At least once every few months my "ISY Launcher" client vanishes from my desktop and then I have to go through the process of finding it again. any suggestions? Am I the only one that this happens to?

I have my ISY set up to send notifications for various reasons and they often take 1-12 or more hours to come through to me. I am using (my ten digit phone number)@mms.att.net. I've also tried (my ten digit phone number)@txt.att.net they both quite often have a long delay. I've also tried "pushover" on Polisy but it isn't as customizable. there are only about a dozen or so options that you can have it send to you (like "on" or "off") Thank you for any suggestions. and By the Way: I believe this has been discussed in this forum in the past but I cannot find the previous discussion.

@MrBill Thank you so much for your very helpful and well-explained result. I've got it working! the wiki probably should be updated at some point but I won't complain about that.

background: I monitor my sump pumps with programs that send an email once a day that tells me how much the sumps have run. I include in that email the amount of rain for the 24 hour period. i had set this email up quite a few years ago with this variable: ${mod.weather.rain.24h} my suspicion is that this was from the old and now defunct climate module. important part: how can I make a "variable" in a customized email that sends the amount of rain from my rain nodeserver? the node is: n006_rain Thank you, someguy

@bpwwer Thank you! sounds good.

what are the advantages or improvements or differences of PG3 vs. PG2?

@Michel Kohanim Any update on this migration utility?

@kzboray: I can't thank you enough for your help. I followed your instructions and IT WORKED! I now have "another ISY" on my list in the "ISY Finder". now, I can only hope that my new PLM comes in the mail soon and that the migration software is available soon. Thank you again to all of you for all of your help. someguy

this SSH stuff may be a little more complicated than I can figure out. I tried this in a "Windows PowerShell" window:

I pressed the button on the front with a paperclip and heard a beep. and i still have the same firware.

I’m on same version of polisy. I don’t know what ssh is. I’ll look into it and try that command.

Michel or others: My Polisy was purchased (from universal devices) in July of 2020. I tried both of the options you mentioned and neither worked. any other suggestions?

I tried: https://192.168.1.105:8080/desc and https://192.168.1.105:8080 and both of those with only http://....

my isy finder app does not find my Polisy ISY. I tried putting in my polisy address into the "add" button on my isy finder app and it didn't work either. any suggestions would be appreciated.

which firmware would it be best to have on my isy to be able to migrate it to Polisy? also: once I click that button and the Polisy beeps, where do I see the ISY in Polisy? I can't see it anywhere in there.

How about the plm? Don’t I need a 2413u to use my polisy as an isy?

do I need to have installed something on my polisy? do I need my polisy connected to a PLM?
