Kasa Devices to support
Yep, gave up on Kasa, too buggy and @Jimbo.Automates does not respond, so went Yolink. More expensive but seems to work OK.

Release 5.9.1 discussion
OK, I know this is kind of minor, but anoying to me. I upgraded my Poliy to 5.9.1 and had to get the new IoX launcher start.jnlp, but this one does NOT show a nice icon nor can I put it in my taskbar for easy launching. Am I doing soemthing wrong or is this just the way the new upgreded launcher is?

Daylight saving time off today
yea, I read old posts and now it seems that is a common issue, and it seems it will self correct over night, but the programs will run correctly, at least that what those posts were saying.

Daylight saving time off today
On my Polisy after DST initiated today, the sunrise/sunset times are off. I live in San Fransisco region and it has sunrise at 8:31am and sunset 8:10pm, those are an hour off, should be an hour earlier for both. And, there is no way to uncheck the dalight savings time box. Also wehn change to a diffent time zone it still is off

Release 5.9.1 discussion
I don't have any Matter devices, so does that mean I do not need to do a Zwave backup prior to upgrading?

Youlink Dimmer in Insteon scene
OK, I was sooo happy the Yolink NS was stable and such a good replacement for the Kasa NS which I had to reboot every couple of weeks...until last night where I had to reboot the Youlink NS as it stopped working. Interesting when I did reboot it took quite a while for the nodes to be recognized again despite the NS being connected Also, I could not upgrade the NS to latest as not on 5.9.1 yet as there seems to be a lot of people with problem upgrading

Programs "run at startup"
OK, I visited this topic many years ago, but revisiting it to make sure I understand. I think this means that on power cycle the Polisy will check the enabled "run at startup" programs to evaluate the IF condition and run as appropriate the then command. Do I have it right? why not always enable programs at start up?

Release 5.9.1 discussion
Instructions say "It's imperative that you take a backup of your IoX, Z-Wave, and PG3 settings.", I know how to do the first and last one, but how do I backup Z-Wave?

Youlink Dimmer in Insteon scene
@Panda88 First of all let me thank you for the Yolink NS. I have been using Yolink for a while with remote temp measuremnt, but only recently started to integrate them into the Polisy. The results are so much better than I am having with Kasa device as the NS continuously need to be rebooted, so thanks much! Regarding the dimming function, are you saing you can control the dim from an Insteon KPL in a scene, or by program? I turns out that controlling from the KPL is not as important for my application as I thought it would be, but still curious

Cannot add any new KASA devices
I have the Kasa prodcution and beta both running, and often (every week or so) I need to restart the NS for the AC to reocgnize the Kasa device

Insteon traffic too high?
Yes I was going to give an in depth description of my experience when all issues are determined, but can briefly say I found a faulty circuit breaker as a prime issue
-
Insteon traffic too high?
well I would agree except it always works first couple of times, just subseqeunt trys, and the led light startsblinking, then no longer works. I always assumed that the red blinking light meant traffic, but not sure
-
Insteon traffic too high?
I will start with the symptom, then comment on some recent issues below: Symptom. When I use my remote wireless switch to turn on a scene, it works, but if I turn it on and off several times, the switch will blink red like there is insteon (or maybe other ) traffic, and the switch will no longer control the scene. When is stops blinking, the last setting works and switch works as normal. Why is this important as not real use case, well I am debugging to see if I still have issues , after the following. · I recently had solar and powerwall 3s installed and had several lights on dimmers that were blinking · I determined that the lights that were blinking were all on the same circuit, so I replaced the circuit breaker and things got MUCH better · I had a lamplink go bad and it was sending out insteon traffic, that lamplink is now removed · I still have one dimmer that slightly flicker on low level setting (controls under cabinet LED strip). So, I am just seeing if I still have problems. Maybe having the switch blink red if there are a lot of subsequent presses is typical, but I don’t seem to remember that before all of this occurred, but I may be wrong and this may be typical

scene in UDI mobile status flips
how do I do that? Oh my, you are correect , one device is changing status. I guess that means its going bad?
-
scene in UDI mobile status flips
I have a scene in the mobile app that the status constantly flips between zero and 5% every couple of seconds. It does not turn on any lights in the scene, only showing on the app, but it seems to me this may be an indication of a problem. Perhaps with one of the devices in the scene? I have disabled a few devices to see if it helps, but so far no success.

Cannot add any new KASA devices
OK, I am running both versions and last two days the Kasa smart plugs did not activate per my porgram untill I restarted both of the plugins, should I only run one? This is a real PITA. @Jimbo.Automates seems awfully quiet these day!
