My new home has small flat LED down lights that fit a standard ceiling electrical box (NOT a can). The whole house is that way, and they often strobe when on, even at full brightness. If there’s any Insteon traffic (mini remotes, keypads, ISY…) then they REALLY start flashing on and off for a few seconds. Note that regular A19 LED bulbs work fine (even from the same junction box as flickering ones) and these lights didn’t flicker with the previous Deako dimmers, nor when I tried an Insteon ON/OFF switch on them. Has anyone found any flat led down light that will fit wired into a standard electrical box and works with Insteon dimmers? I’ve tried the keypad dimmer and regular Insteon dimmer switch. If not, all my Insteon HAS to go, the strobing is terrible and they’re in every room. Thanks!

Great advice, all. Thank you kindly.

Fantastic, thank you! I just wasn't finding it on there but I didn't think to look for a factory reset. I appreciate it!

I've moved my ISY 994i IR Pro (and PLM) to a new house, leaving behind all of my old Insteon devices. What's the easiest way to delete everything from the ISY so I can start fresh with new devices & programs? I was afraid if I reformatted the SD card that I wouldn't be able to connect to it any longer and wanted to ask beforehand. Thanks!

Thanks, I’ll look for the upgrade code, and that’s a good consideration for my Elk security system!

Thanks bhihifi - good information to consider for an upgrade to Pro!

Thank you both for the excellent summary and for talking me into upgrading - ha. I see the Polisy list supports many more devices (77 more as of today) than the Polyglot Cloud did. Looks well worth investing in.

I'm trying to convince myself it's worth the upgrade from an ISY 994i Pro to Polisy as I prepare to move, but I need help talking myself into it. If I understand, Polisy is basically ISY software running on a computer instead of dedicated hardware (Plus some additionally supported devices). Is the computer-based ISY as solid as the 994i Pro is? (I'm thinking of how often my computers around the house lock up and need rebooted to revive them, whereas I never have to do that with the ISY) Polisy's Node Server is an improved version of ISY's Node Server and supports some additional devices such as Ring and Tesla, although it appears my ISY can also support those same devices (Polyglot-Cloud). Is there a list of supported devices (ISY vs. Polisy)? The new house has many WiFi devices (Fireplace, garage door openers, Doorbells, appliances, light switches, thermostat...) but if I upgrade to Polisy, I don't know that any of them would be supported Polisy Pro adds the WiFi/Bluetooth module for wireless networking. Does Pro contain any additional features? Any other benefits to upgrading from my ISY 994i Pro to Polisy? Thanks!

I have tried endlessly to add an Open/Close Sensor V.00 2843-222 to a scene. I always get "TCP client request failed [FYP:403]". Device had previously been in this same scene (and in fact still controls the scene even though it's not in it any longer). I'm just trying to clean up my ISY so it properly shows as being part of the scene. - ISY994i V 5.0.16A and V 5.0.16B - Open/Close Sensor is blinking in "set mode" as expected - The Open/Close Sensor communicates very well (the light turns on every time I open the door, and turns off every time I shut the door). - ISY updates On/Off status when the door is opened or closed (Any chance this can be changed to Open & Closed instead of On/Off?) - It is also within 5 feet of several Insteon dual-band devices.
