  1. I have a Insteon network, an ISY994, and an Elk M1 System. I would be interested in getting an Eisy and replacing the ISY, but I am really concerned about the ISY-Elk interface. I use this heavily, and have dozens of programs written in the Elk (rules) and in the ISY to both control lighting, garage doors, and an electronic gate. I would hate to rewrite and convert all of these programs just to migrate from the ISY to an Eisy. Is there an easy to do this migration, or should I leave well enough alone (there is no pressing need to convert)? Everything seems to be working fine, and I have spares for the ISY and serial modem. Thanks in advance. Steve
  2. On the current Java, the only security options are high and very high. I wan't to turn off the secuity processing so I can at least access the ISY99 and get my current configuration. Going to an Einsy or even a ISY994 isn't a great option since I would have to rebuild the entire Insteon network. Does anyone have any idea how do disable Java security processing? Does anyone know where I can get a copy of an old java that has low security processing?
  3. SO how do I get Java it ignore certificate processing? I don't believe UDI will help me with this one. My entire network is on that ISY99.
  4. I Posted 9 hours ago So how do I do that? I have tried everything.
  5. When I download the start.jnlp and try to run it, I get the error "Unable to launch the application", When i download the admin.jnlp, I get the error I described above. That didn't work.
  6. I have an ancient ISY99 that I am trying to load the admin console. I downloaded the console from the device using http://192.168.1.250/admin.jnlp When I execute it, it runs for a while and then gives me the error "Failed to validate certificate. The application will not be executed". I am trying to get the admin console so I can remove a defective keypad and replace it with a working keypad. I only want to do this once and get the network topography and change the links. How do I get past this java error?
  7. I don't know where you got that idea. I have 2 PIs. One running Octoprint, and one with a touch screen I use as a network test machine. I run both PIs off 12V with a little buck converter. All want with an irrigation controller is to be able to change the programs remotely (not using their cloud). I just don't know anything about Polyglot, since what I have works fine. My Elk is connected to the ISY994 with Insteon lighting and a bunch of Elk and ISY programs. The Elk runs a remote gate and functions as security and access control.
  8. How do I find out more info on Polyglot and the Rainmachine node server? I don't want to have this talk to a cloud, but keeping everything local to my network. If I want remote control, I use a VPN (I don't trust clouds). I use a VPN (my router has a VPN server), and that's how I access the ISY remotely. I really no nothing about Polyglot and node servers. Also, how would I install Polyglot on an RPI? Please tell me how you did that. Thanks, Steve
  9. Has anyone used the RainBee8 5010Z 8-Zone ZigBee/Insteon/X10 Irrigation Controller directly on the ISY994? You can see it here at: https://www.orchestratedhome.com/shop/pc/8-Zone-ZigBee-Insteon-X10-Irrigation-Controller-30p25.htm
  10. Interesting discussion. I, too am looking for an irrigation controller, and the RainMachine seems like the one to get. However, I have the ISY994ZW, integrated with my Elk system, and have no knowledge of Polyglot or Nodelink. Where can I find information on these, and how can I integrate the RainMachine in with my automation. I currently have the ISY, and Elk M1G and all-Insteon lighting. Do I have to purchase a Polyglot, or is there a less expensive way to do this?
  11. And they are both wifi thermostats,which I didn'r want. I don't wany all my comings and goings sent to someones cloud, especially Google's. I just went ahead a s got two more Insteon thermostats.
  12. I did a Google search on the TH9320 and it seems it is a WiFi thermostat. How can I use a WiFi thermostat with the ISY994ZW? I want the ISY to work with the thermostat directly, and not go through the thermostat's cloud. Thanks in advance. Steve
  13. I am looking for recommendations for a Z-Wave thermostat. My current setup is Insteon for lighting and the HVAC thermostat, an ISY-994ZW, an ELK for security and access control for a gate, 2 stand-alone DVRs for video surveillance, and a NEC SL2100 phone system with IP phones, and the house wired with CAT6 for network (with a Engenius AC access point for wifi). I use the ELK-ISY interface, and use the ELK for relay inputs and output to the ISY. I have used the Insteon relay I/O devices, and don't like them because they are unreliable. We had a major power problem and the Insteon thermostat died. It is out of warranty, and this is the second one Installed (the first one was replaced under warranty). Knowing the reputation of these Insteon thermostats, I wanted to try a Z-Wave thermostat instead of getting another Insteon. I am looking at Z-Wave door locks, but not ready to take the plunge just yet. I have no other Z-Wave devices in the system. The ISY is located directly below where the thermostat is located. I have a 6 wire cable going from the HVAC to the thermostat. Anyone have any recommendations for a thermostat that will work with the ISY? Any suggestions on using Z-Wave? I don't want WIFI enabled stuff, because I don't want anything to go into someone's cloud. I have a VPN server/router and can access the ISY from anywhere that has an Internet connection. I have used Agave and the ISY dashboard with the Insteon thermostat. On another note, I am working on a data logger and remote access device for the Elk using a Raspberry Pi. I know about the code written in Python, but I don't like Python, especially for real-time applications. I prefer C for the PI, and am writing this in C. Python is a dynamic language, and lots of stuff goes on in the background, while C is static and the response is fairly dependable. Thanks in advance. Steve
