J/Status Request in X10 signaling is all ones. 11111111. It sounds like noise to me also.

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.

Both switches get replaced by an Insteon switch. One then controls the light itself. The other one just controls the switch with the load and has its red load wire capped off. Both get cross linked. The travelers between the switches are reused to power and neutral between them. As needed.

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.

Is their a manual switch controlling the load at a different location? The white and black connected together. Looks like a switch loop and the white in that case is not neutral but is a line or switched load from the remote switch. Technically it the whites should have a piece of black tape around it or have a black mark around it to verify it is not a neutral but has power on it.

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.

No the firmware on the 2443 v2 main board will still act like a 2443 v2 Access Point with a serial daughter board on it. As it does not have the PLM firmware in it.

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.

I actually had a V1.0 with 10uF 25V caps. V2.1 changed C7 and C13 to 100uf 35V and V2.3 to 100uF 50V too large to fit the PCB solder holes. They mounted parallel to the PCB and held in with component glue

Actually they may look like their in series but they are not. There should be a jumper wire to the trace side of the PCB, a trace cut on the back side and a small coil between the two capacitors. It is creating the pi filter on the power supply. Found on the later PCB layout. I have never tried it but if you use care it could be possible to do it. 10uF is woefully to small and only was in the V1.0. 2413SV1.0.pdf

From my notes. Reply.txt

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.

Do you have the older 2412S PLM? If you do is your ISY controller powered by a wall wart? The 2412S PLM had power on the cable between the PLM and controller. The presently sold 2413S PLM does not have that power. So it needs a wall wart supply if you do not have one now. Checked the Insteon site and the 2413S is in stock.

You have to wake up motion sensors before you can access them to make changes. As they go into power saving sleep. If you have the motion sensors model number and need the users manuals. Post them and we maybe able to help.

I did a few tests. On an early production EZIO8SA. Both 2412S providing power and a 2413S with a +12VDC 500mA wall wart. With the 2412S I used the drop down list and manually picked the EZIO8SA. With the 2413S I used the Auto Detect choice. Using the PLM's six digit ID as the address. On my ISY994i. Firmware 5.3.4 Both where detected as the Compacta EZIO8SA and 8 links where added to the Control Console List. Some users here found the two analog inputs AN1 and AN2 had noise on them if not used. They are high impedance and could pick up noise. Connecting them to GND stopped the noise. Found a later quick guide. Shows both the EZIO8SA and their version PLM I tried the 1-Wire Input and a DS18B20 and did get some information back. In the Smartenit Utility. I do not think it is in the ISY controller. EZIO8SA_Combo_Quick-Start.pdf EZIO8SA_Combo_Quick-Start.pdf

I should have added more information. Except for a short while. The Smartenit PLM was a2412S PLM with a custom daughter board. It also provided a unregulated +12 volts on the cable from it to the EZIO8SA. The 2413S does not have this voltage on the cable. So the EZIO8SA has to be powered through the external power input connector. To power it. Just checked and it maybe listed as a Compacta EZIO8SA as Compacta was the original manufacturers name under Simplehomenet. You should see it in the list as a 07.04. It will still have the six digit ID of the connected PLM but ID as an EZIO8SA not as a PLM. EZIO8SA_Quick-Start.pdf

You are using an external wall wart to power the EZIO8SA? When you have a PLM connected to an EZIO8SA. You may see the LED on the PLM flicker as the EZIO8SA programs the PLM to identify as an EZIO8SA's Category and Subcategory as it is a EZIO8SA. Have not done on in awhile but I believe there was a separate place in the add a module list. Is that where you are trying to use it?
