OTA Firmware Upgrade for AeoTec Multisensor 6 (and3)
Rats, Don't want to clib to 20' ceilings with a recently operated knee. I guess they'll stay on 1.13 until a) OTA is available or b) my knee feels up to it... Thanks anyway lilyoyo1

Failed to securely include device
Hello all; I get the same error, with AeoTec MultiSensor 6 devices on V1.14, ISY on 5.3.0 and the device less than 10" away. It doesn't matter, if I reset the sensor. I always have to Exclude before Add. It gives the error, but adds the device. I don't want to install them in their location, 20' in the air... Any ideas? cheers

OTA Firmware Upgrade for AeoTec Multisensor 6 (and3)
Greetings; Just upgraded my ISY with a new Z-Wave Dongle and at first sight, it seems to have migrated without an issue... (also upgraded to 5.3.0) I was waiting for this to add a few motion sensors to the system and now I'm ready to do so... all my sensors are on V1.13, and V1.14 is available AeoTec asks for this to be done with their own dongle, but according to a now closed post on OTA upgrades @Michel Kohanim mentions that OTA is part of the 500 certification. I have not been able to see any menu items indicating that ISY can do so? Can someone point me in the right direction, please? Cheers

Ethernet ports on Polisy
Greetings, What are the 3 Ethernet ports behind the Polisy Pro good for? The rightmost one needs to go to the router, that much is in the manual. Can I use it as a switch, to connect my elk M1XEP, for instance? Cheers

Whole house crashed, cannot reset Polisy from overseas
As I said, cycled power to the while house and to the Polisy. I still cannot control any of the SonOff switches. When looking at the event log on the ISY, I see that it is getting information from my Weather station through the Polyglot weather node. That part seems to work. When I go to the ISY web interface, the Zwave based sensors seem to present (the color of the red/green buttons are vivid). All of the SonOff switches initially have a vivid color, but very soon the ON turns dull and it obviously doesn't respond to clicks... It's almost like the MQTT node server crashed. But wouldn't that come alive again upon a power cycle? Stumped...

Could it be a DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME ISSUE???? Colombia doesn't switch, but maybe I failed to set this thing properly.

Whole house crashed, cannot reset Polisy from overseas
Yes, that was a problem I had earlier, but once I upgraded to a MikroTik 3011, that went away. Handling 98 Sonoffs and a whole bunch of other devices without a problem... it used to take a while to get all the addresses assigned. But that went away, when I reserved all the switch addresses. Now, the moment it gets a MAC, it knows where it goes.

Whole house crashed, cannot reset Polisy from overseas
well, I am trying to slowly migrate from CHROME to BRAVE. Seems like this forum doesn't like it. Polisy was running stable the whole time. The last and only time the house crashed was on 21 November, a week before I put the house on battery backup. Since then it ran without a glitch. And of course it comes crashing down, when I am on another continent!

Whole house crashed, cannot reset Polisy from overseas
So, I have done a complete power cycle to the house, including the Polisy and the ISY. Still no lights. I then did a separate power cycle to the Polisy. No dice. When I log onto ISY, it shows to be on-line. When I try to log onto Polisy, it says it is online, but no details on either of the node servers and no option to reboot... The house has internet. Any ideas?

BTW, Forum doesn't let me post, when using Brave browser. I had to sign in in Chrome...

Whole house crashed, cannot reset Polisy from overseas
Thanks Asbril, I have this system implemented up here in the mountains of California to do a daily reset to my router and ELK1XEP. This is 10 year old tech. I will ask my house sitter to try and do this. Rather pedestrian, I must say, considering the Polisy is supposed the be the latest and greatest. Here is one thought though: in December, I installed a whole house battery system (backed up by solar), which means I'm no longer prone to the rather frequent power outages of the local grid. Polisy has been for 4 months straight! Sound like a stack overflow somewhere. Could that be a hint, Michel? Because before this, for an entire year, this problem didn't presente itself... Cheers.

Whole house crashed, cannot reset Polisy from overseas
My house sitter calls me this evening, saying she cannot turn on any lights. I logged onto ISY and requested a remote reset.bseems like it might have executed. Then I tried to log into Polisy PRO. It says I'm online, but no information on the two node servers (MQQT and Weather) shows up. The usual options of resetting Polisy are not available either... All home switches are SonOff, linked to Google Voice via the Polisy running MQQT node server and ISY. I cannot access any of those switches... Neither by voice, not through my ELK M1gold. The culprit clearly seems to be Polisy... Can anyone help? Cheers.

Getting weather info from ISY/Ployglot
Greetings, I'm using the WeatherLink Node to get data from my Davis Instruments Vantage station. That works well enough. I also have an Arduino controlling my pool chemistry and rainfall is an important Parameter for this. Has anyone tried to get an Arduino (with W5500 ethernet) to connect to ISY/Polyglot to retrieve information? Cheers!

Decision Time: Z-Wave Plus or İnsteon
yes. sorry about that

Decision Time: Z-Wave Plus or İnsteon
So, I've been playing with the 994i for a while in anticipation of building a new home. Now that the floorplan is completed, it is time for the electrical and home automation. The home will be in Colombian countryside,a one story construction of reinforced concrete and brick, over 6000sqf on two landscaped acres. Yes, Colombia means heavy on security, lighting and cameras! Security will likely be provided by an ELK M1 Gold panel. Should I go Insteon or Z-Wave Plus? I like Zwave for it's OTA firmware upgradability, but it is limited to less than 250 circuits and given the size of the property and the concrete walls, I'm worried about RF range. Insteon is attractive because it can handle 1000+ circuits and with Powerline in addition to RF mesh networking... I would be very grateful for anyone to voice an opinion on the topic and provide any other guidance. Cheers.
