This is what I'm getting: pg3-backup-10-21-2026_104918_AM.tgz .tgz rather than .zip How do you see the "output" nomenclature?

I'll adjust the download settings, thanks. Is there a difference in these files per my question above? Is this simply a change in the format due to the new AC? I did a download of the backup yesterday and they indeed do have different names.

Is there a way to have ISY save the new backup directly to a file folder that exists on my hard drive? All I seem to do is download it and then have to manually save it by moving it from my downloads to that file folder. I also noted that the backup from the new AC is labeled pg3-backup, where the old AC is IoX-Backup. Is there a difference?

They do NOT work manually either..

They are < 10 years old. They dim every night at sunset and go to 75% at sunrise.

Off this particular subject, but the reason this started. Does anyone have an idea why some of these switches are reverting back to their own minds re: the LED backlighting? I raised this question a few months ago and the only idea was that memory in the switches might be exceeded which was later shot down. All the rest of my switches act as they should, two or three require this factory reset and reinstall routine.

So, I assume then that if this is Beta, the new AC isn't really ready for primetime, and I should keep using the old AC for now?

By this you mean 6.1.2_7?

Finally getting around to seeing the new AC. Logged in via my 192.... address. I can see the switches and the programs but confused as there is no menu per se on the top. I have two switches that have been giving me fits since my changeover from 994 to eisy. They will not dim/brighten the led on a global switchover at sunset/sunrise as the others do. The only work around is to factory reset, then add bac into eisy. This has "forced" them to work for a period of time, then the lapse back to staying low led again. I thought I'd attempt to reset them again, this time using the new AC. Before I factory rest them, I want to know how to add them back in first. I know this new AC will become old hat after a while, but for now it's really Greek.

Is it advisable to mount the Zwave antenna remote from an extension? I recently turned the eisy a bit to get over a couple missed calls from my Schlage doors. I noted also at the same time that eisy was rather warm. I'm guessing that is the nature of the beast!

I'm trying to figure this phaseout - out. Am I understanding that in lieu of the AC you simply log into the eisy through the web address, in my case, 192.XXX.X.XXX? When I tried that I get an entirely new format. Is this what I need to learn? Thanks

I may well be the slowest guy on this forum! I managed to upgrade the unit to the new firmware - no issues that I can see so far. Took less than 20 minutes... I had to do the usual Java deletes in order for the AC to work - no problem there, Then I notes that the desktop icon was gone and the only way to access AC was through http://isy.ip/admin.jnlp . Worked fine. But I've tried everything I know to re-establish the UD icon for faster logins. The old tried and true way will not leave an icon.

Thank you. Is there a reason why these three programs went yellow?

I was going through things prior to the upgrade and noticed that the "FACTORY QUERRY" was "not loaded" and "out of memory" was shown in yellow on the program summary page. In looking at the program (not really sure what if anything it does for me), I see this in the comments: IF : time is 3:00:00AM THEN: Warning: Unrecognized Action (program may not run) <cmd ID="QUERY" NODE="00:21:b9:00:f7:f7"/> ELSE: no action One of my holiday programs had the same, but it was a program I don't use anymore so I just deleted it. Do I need this "querry"? If so, how to modify?

Figured it out. I think along with the many "glitches" I've experienced in the transition from 994 to eISY, I think that some of the Scenes also were corrupted in the move. I deleted this particular scene and rebuilt it and just like that it works. Moral of my story is a complete audit of all the remaining scenes and programs. This whole thing started with the backlighting not responding. That issue required each and every switch needing to be factory reset, deleted from eISY and then re-added back in. After that the backlighting adjustments worked perfect. I'm appreciative that everything works now, or will as soon as I get through the rest. I'm thrilled with my new eISY, and it's worth the minor inconvenience of these issues.
