  1. Thanks again, larryllix! I was planning to try that next but waited to see if anyone had a better idea. That did fix my immediate Java problem. Now that I'm past that issue, I continue to have other problems with the ISY Admin Console. (Socket Open Failed errors) I hoped that fixing the Java issue would fix these, but not so. I know I've seen other posts on the board about those issues, so I'll see what progress I can make with the resources that are out there. Thanks again for your help!
  2. Thanks for the idea, larryllix. I hadn't tried this yet because GreyFox reported it hadn't worked, but I did just give it a try. I uninstalled Java and then downloaded and installed the latest version. I opened the Java Control Panel and tried to delete temporary files. I had the exact same experience as before reinstalling -- an error message when trying to delete cache files and unable to remove the ISY Admin Console app from the Java cache. I'm open to any other suggestions. Thanks again!
  3. Clicking on "Delete Files" yields this dialogue box: Clicking on OK brings this "Unable to uninstall applications" message. I've already clicked on the "Details" button which opened the "Exception" window at the bottom of the image, below: The full text of this "Exception" window is posted in GreyFox's original message. Clicking on the "View" Temporary Internet Files in the Java Control Panel produces this window: I believe I need to delete the ISY Admin Console from the Java cache, but I'm unable to do so here. Clicking on the "Delete" icon produces an error message that pops up and disappears before I can read it. I believe this is the key -- being able to delete this app from the Java cache. Again, any help will be greatly appreciated!
  4. I came to the board hoping to find a solution to this very same problem. My symptoms are identical, including being unable to remove the Administrative Console in Java and the same "illegal URL redirect" message in GreyFox's original post. I am running the 64-bit version of Java. Having now upgraded to 5.3.1, most of my system is working, but I've lost access to all sensors. I can control connected devices from the Administrative Console, but can't see device status. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
  5. Yes, that makes perfect sense. Should have figured that out on my own. Thanks again!
  6. Thanks again. I may not be understanding your answer as that's what I've done. I've set Controller A (the "master" switch MBR Hallway MBR) with an On Level of 100% and Controller B (MBR Hallway Entry) with an On Level of 26%. The issue is that the setting on Controller B doesn't seem to have any impact. Whether I switch on Controller A or Controller B, both actions turn the lights on to 100%. I would expect lights to go on to 26% when I switch on Controller B, but that isn't working as expected.
  7. Thanks for the multiple replies. I've followed the advice given. I've performed a factory reset on the switches to remove the manually created links. While not mentioned, I also deleted the switches from the ISY controller and then relinked them so that I have a "clean" installation. Then I created a new scene listing both switches as controllers. The effort seems to be successful in that I now have a working 3-way circuit. Either switch will control the set of overhead lights and the LEDs on both switches are synchronized -- either all on or all off. With all of the above working as expected, I'm experiencing an unexpected result. On one of the circuits I've setup, I'd like the two switches/controllers to function differently. When switched on from "Switch A" I'd like the lights to go to 100%. When "Switch B" is switched on, I'd like the lights to go on to a lesser amount...say 20%. I believe I've set this up properly in the controller (see attached screenshot). Let me try to describe what is happening. After the factory reset (but before linking to the controller), one of the switches controls the bank of lights while the other does nothing. On the Admin tool, I've marked this "master switch" with an asterisk. After linking the switches to the ISY controller and setting up the scene in the controller, whatever On Level I set for the master switch seems to control both switches. The attached screenshot shows the result. The "MBR Hallway MBR" switch is set with an On Level of 100%. When I manually switch on the lights from either switch, the lights go on to 100%. If I reverse the settings (MBR Hallway MBR to 20%), then both switches turn on the lights to 20%. In other words, the On Level selected for the "slave switch" seems to have no effect. Any thoughts on the issue? I had the switches professionally installed by someone who isn't familiar with Insteon. Is this a problem with how the switches were wired? Something else? Again, thanks for the help. I'm trying to gain a basic understanding before I try more complicated scenes and programs.
  8. That was what I suspected. Thanks for the quick reply!
  9. I just installed several Insteon devices and an ISY controller and am beginning to educate myself on how to set up my system. (BTW, this forum has been very helpful, so thanks to all those who contribute!) When I installed the new light switches, I manually cross-linked the switches to replicate the three-way circuits that I had before switching to Insteon. I realize i can also create this cross-linking using scenes on the ISY controller as opposed to doing so manually at the switches. My question is whether there is any reason to create these cross-links using scenes rather than doing so manually. Is there any difference between the two methods? I'd like to get the basic setup correct before starting to develop more complicated scenes and programs. Thanks for your advice!
