  1. Sorry if this is covered somewhere but I looked and couldn't find it. The iOS app store shows that I am running the latest version but the version is 0.8.4 which is not the latest. How do I update to the latest version? Do I need to use TestFlight? Thank you.
  2. Strange problem. Maybe try deleting the portal scenes one at a time and see if it stops.
  3. @tazman, Just one more thing to break...
  4. @tazman, If you can't wait for a PG3 solution, there is an integration on Home Assistant for Vue. I don't use HA but I thought I'd try it to see if it worked. It was pretty easy to setup and it works as advertised. I created a quick automation to notify my phone when the dryer stopped. A friend asked if I could create notifications for her washer and dryer and I have been trying to come up with a simple solution. Rpi and a Vue would do the trick. As I understand it there is an ISY integration that allows data to flow between ISY and HA. No expert here, I now have about 60 min of experience with HA!
  5. Same here. Tag updates also late. Interestingly if I can update them manually without issue.
  6. @CPrince, How did you pair them? Using ISY or just device to device? Maybe that pairing is enough to disable the wireless programming? Try a factory reset and then see if you can program the wireless thermostat before you pair it with the main one.
  7. Could it be related to the second statement from the manual: IMPORTANT! Day Modes only function when the Insteon Wireless Thermostat is connected to the optional power adapter. Once you have added Insteon Wireless Thermostat to a scene in Insteon Thermostat as a wireless temperature zone, the Program button will no longer function. All program controls will be performed on the Insteon Thermostat.

    @kzboraywill likely need to jump back in here to help you. Did you notice if there were any error messages when you ran this command: curl -s https://pkg.isy.io/script/update121.sh | sudo bash

    You can do it! If you have a windows computer just follow @kzboray detailed instructions above. If you hit a problem just come back to the thread.
  10. The NS needs the cloud to communicate to your ecobee
  11. I use NodeLink for logging. You can log devices, programs and variables. The log is written to every time there is a change. I was tracking my heating system run time and use the log data in an excel file to do the calculations. NodeLink is a node server but is not available on Polyglot. I run in on a RPi. It's also a great aid in debugging when programs are not doing what you want them to.
  12. Hi @JimboAutomates, I just double checked and when I'm in 'cool' the setpoint up/down controls in the AC on the ecobee node adjust the heat setpoint not the cool. 3 vs 4 commands, I don't really have a preference as I don't use 'auto'. Either way you choose the other method could be accomplished programmatically.
  13. From the actual thermostat, when I put my thermostat in Auto the heat and cool setpoints are still set independently. I would expect the same behavior from the Node Server. Each setpoint would to be set individually. However, I think you're right there might be a bug here. In Auto the Setpoint Up and Setpoint Down controls only effect the heat set point. If you put the thermostat in Cool the Setpoint controls still only control the heat set point. @JimboAutomatesyou should weigh in on this.
  14. Did you look at the log for the Hue NS on PG3? Any obvious errors? Also, you don't need to plug the PLM into your Polisy
  15. Funny, that was my first thought too...
  16. Is anyone else unable to connect to the Wireless Tag Server? It looks like it's been offline for about 11 hours. Tried a manager reboot but no luck.
  17. I think @hart2hartanswered your questions already. I also use the DLS software, it is way easier than programming from a keypad, except for simple changes. I have the touchscreen keypad, it is very nice, I have done simple changes from that. Good luck with your ELK, maybe you would need to worry about a switch.
  18. I use DSC with ISY and it integrates easily. There is a Node Server available for Polisy to integrate DSC into the ISY Admin Console. You can also use another software package called NodeLink. That is what I am using, it works great and predated the NS availability so I just stuck with it. I use it to incorporate zone status into programs and use the programmable outputs to control my garage doors. I needed to purchase a 3rd party network interface (Envisalink) to allow the DSC to be attached to the network. My DSC is PowerSeries Control Panel PC1864. I never used ELK so I can't compare them.
  19. There is a node server called 'Virtual". Maybe that's what you saw? https://github.com/markv58/Virtual I don't think that will help your logging problem however. I use NodeLink for logging. To use it you have to run it on another device, I use a RPi but it runs on Windows too.
  20. Yes, push notifications are possible within the ISY environment. If you want to pursue an ISY solution then you going going to need to buy 2 pieces of hardware in order to get started. From UDI you need to buy a controller, I would recommend the polisy unit as it is the latest generation and offers the most flexibility for the next piece of hardware, the PLM. The PLM is an Insteon device that allows polisy to talk to your Insteon network. The PLM is obviously no longer made so you are going to have to go to eBay to find one. Brace yourself on pricing, it is going to cost you hundreds of dollars to get one. There are 3 models of PLM that are compatible with polisy, 2413U, 2413S, and 2448A7. polisy maybe hard to get initially as people scramble to replace their Insteon Hub but they are still in production at least. The PLM is the challenge for anyone trying to make the switch to ISY,
  21. Welcome to the forum. There are multiple door sensors available on Amazon that are compatible with Alexa. I have used the Tuya/SmartLife ones with Alexa routines successfully but the others that claim alexa compatibility probably work too. You will find they are a lot slower to respond 5-10 seconds range because they are WiFi based. If you want to keep using your Insteon sensors it is possible but it's a journey with some hurdles. There are multiple posts going right now that are trying to help people like you make a transition to a different control system. I'm assuming you were using an Insteon hub. This is just one example:
  22. Thanks for sharing your hard work. First document I opened I found schematics and parts list for the PLMs! Vintage 2007 but still more than I had ever seen. http://cache.insteon.com/pdf/INSTEON_Developers_Guide_20070816a.pdf
  23. In light of recent events I was poking through my Insteon junk box and came across an old relic, 2413UH. I wonder if it would work with polisy?
  24. I should be tagged with an "assist" not the solution. That goes to @io_guy for developing the app for all of us!!
