Thank you for the update.

The old X10 power line interface device will not be used with either eisy or ISY994i Both require a 2413 PLM. ISY994i a 2413S serial port PLM, Eisy a 2413U USB PLM or optional USB to serial 2413S adapter UDI sells.

Added plugins that you purchased for an ISY994i. Are connected ISY994i's UUID number. So getting it moved maybe very hard or not possible at all. Or are you just using the basic Elk support in the firmware and not the purchased ELK Security plug in module? From the manual: ELK Security Module While the ISY does include some ELK integration built-in, it is fairly limited in that most of the integration must come from the ELK side. For example, you can write a program on the ELK to turn a light on through the ISY, but you cannot write an ISY program that turns a light on based on the state of an ELK resource. The ELK Security Module changes that, fully integrating the ELK with the ISY allowing you to use the ELK’s available resources in your ISY programs. The list and state of available ELK resources can be found in the main ELK tab in the Admin Console.

Glad it is working for you. I suspect the UPS and filterlinc are not passing the Insteon power line signals and the module is getting through on Insteon RF. The power supply in the I/OLinc probably can accept an AC voltage if yours isn't pure sine wave. Some do fine others get picky.

If you are plugging the On/Off module into the output of the UPS. Most have a filter on the AC input so it will absorb all the Insteon power line messages. If the On/Off module is dual band it may work on Insteon RF if it can read the messages. My UPS is on the AC Line into the UPS to stop it from absorbing the Insteon power line messages. Also if it is not a pure sine wave AC output on battery but is a stepped or modified output. It may cause some power supplies in modules to not work or possibly damaged. Carefully do some tests while closely observing the module and see if it has issues.

One possibility is the modules electronics got confused by the short power cycle and acting strange. An air gap or power removal then powering back up. Started the internal reset circuit to completely restart the module from scratch.

That sounds correct. The ISY will not show an X10 address in a module. If there is an X10 command it should show in the log or if active in the Event Viewer.

I saw Alexa was one of the effected servers. It was a problem with the Amazon Web Service and it effected many sites that use the AWS.

Saw this internet outage on the early news this morning. It was also effecting my news casts though my Roku streamers.

Found my 2413UH manual for the Houslinc 2416 Houselinc sales kit. It was from2012. It may work fine but as others have indicated. I know the ISY994i must not have checked the Subcategory as users had used them. With the serial version 2413SH It may have older firmware and components from what is presently sold. The information on the back label would give you some data. Like revision number and production dates.

2413UH is the USB version used by their purchased version Houselinc software. It has a different Subcategory number their software checks. Not sure as the EISY goes as far as checking the Subcategory number. Others here should have more information in using it.

The modules you are controlling. Have their own link databases in them. Including the PLM's six digit id. So messages from it will be processed. Even if the PLM database is empty. Messages sent back may not be seen if the database is empty or does not have the senders ID in it. Power cycling a few times sometimes temporarily let the PLM function again. It will not last for a long time before again stopping to function. 02 69 15 message looks like it was a 15 NAK. Either unrecognized command, end of populated database found. I believe you thought you may have heard a cracking. In my electronics servicing. Sometime a capacitor my crackle as it pops it safety vent as the capacitor is failing. Sometimes even letting out the magic smoke.😀

The ISY9941 does not use the DB9 to network style connector cable in the box. It uses a standard network cable between the units and it has serial signals on it not a typical network signals.

Yes it is different. The 2413S has a Network cable doing Serial communications. I would use the accessory EISY cable. Using some other USB adapter will not have the needed signal pin outs to work. Now if you used a USB serial adapter and the serial cable in the 2413S box. That should work. Though most users never found the cable in the box and accidentally tossed it with the 2413S's box.
