  1. Cool - thanks for the quick response. I will skip that interim step, then, and save myself some time.
  2. Been on cruise control for a number of years with my Isy, but with Polyglot and a few other ideas I have with a basement remodel, thought I should get around to 5.x finally. Any recommendation if it's helpful to update to the latest 4.x (4.7.3?) firmware from an old 4.4.6 and run on that for a while before making the jump? Or should I just go from 4.4.6 to 5.0.16C (RC1) directly? Thanks...
  3. I noticed that the Import into Spoken nodes and scenes form in the Portal has an download/export option. Is there a way to do any sort of mass import? I have a ton of Programs I anticipate adding to Echo for my squeezebox integration - it really works well to say "Alexa, Turn on Christmas Music" where Christmas Music is the name of a program (which then sends a network command to my squeezebox server). I want to add more and more of these programs and use them with Alexa. Even if the spoken word automatically got filled in with the name of the program it would speed things up a ton. Thoughts?
  4. A-ha! That completely makes sense. I was confused by the "on level" on each (and the fact that adjusting that was changing the light level as I was doing it). Follow-up question (of course): With the old system I was also able to define the "press and hold" of the buttons. The quick click on the button would set the level but then if you pressed and held the button it would act as a dimmer as well. While the 0, 25, 75, 100 is good for the quick press, would also like to be able to fine-tune it higher and lower... thoughts on that anyone? EDIT: I think "never mind" on that. I noticed that when I pressed and held the buttons it actually was dimming and undimming the light. I guess THAT'S what the numbers in the "current state" on the buttons was kind of signifying. I wasn't sure why there would be a number in that column for a button...
  5. This is a very basic question - I think I'm missing some very beginner-level concepts in my migration from an Insteon hub to Isy. This is my scenario: I have a single OutletLinc Dimmer (2472D v.41) and an 8-scene mini-remote (2342-222 v.37). Everything links to Isy just fine and I can control the lamp from the Isy interface. I can also feedback in the Isy control panel when I press the buttons on the remote so communication is fine. But I can't figure out how to tell the buttons on the remote to do anything. I thought that maybe I would add all eight buttons to a scene with the OutletLinc and it would allow me to start assigning "actions" to the button presses - something real simple: Button A turn lamp on to 100%, Button B = 75%, Button C = 25%, Button D = Off. This I was able to do pretty easily with the Insteon Hub. I have the buttons set up as 8-Scene non-Toggle. Do I have to write a simple program for each button to do this? Or is there somewhere in the UI that I'm missing where I tell the button what to do? Sorry for the very basic question... Shane
