Thanks guys. Got the old ones deleted. As for the unmanaged, in the picture above, all of the plugins I wanted to delete say "Current Status: unmanaged"

OK, I purchased Polisy long ago as I was interested in trying out plugins and add some new capabilities to my ISY. I was able to install a few nodes on the original node server and tried out HarmonyHub, FlumeWater, NOAA, Nest. I never got any real functionality out of these and could never find any good POLISY 101 Documentation. Then as time went by and ISY was being moved to POLISY, I became intimidated to move from my old ISY to POLISY. Finally, when it was announced that there would be a cost increase for the portal if we stuck with the old ISY, I figured it was time to update. Still having difficulties migrating to my POLISY and seeing the new eISY get released, I then purchased the new hardware once again. I am now on eISY and have been for a while but am still at a loss for POLISY. I have these old POLISY nodes running (or maybe not running) that I cannot figure out how to uninstall. Then there are some new Plugins that I just installed that I really wish had better documentation on what their capabilities are. Anyway, if anyone can help walk me through how to delete all of the unmanaged plugins from a long time ago shown in the attached picture, that would be helpful. If there is basic documentation around plugins and how people have used them I would also be very interested. Thanks

Great tip. I will change that now. By the way, given you need to specify "Next Day"; I would think that may use the same resources as the 12 hours.

So, what I was missing in Scene configuration is that the scene can have a different action depending on what Controller is triggering the Scene. So specifically setting an action for the controller that was not working as I expected it to fixed this. Thanks Techman for making suggestions and forcing me to dig deeper into this.

well the first line in the than Set 'Hallway / Kids Bath / Kids Bathroom' On Level 40% is setting the switch on level to 40% and works for manual pressing on the button The second line In 'Hallway / Kids Bath / Kids Bath' Set 'Hallway / Kids Bath / Kids Bathroom' To 40% in 0.1 seconds Is adjusting the scene to 40%, but I just noticed the controller parameter, so maybe I need to add a line for each of the controllers in the scene, to adjust the on level to 40% Now I specifically set the motion sensor as the controller that adjusts the scene. I can adjust the if statement, but that part is working as it as I see it working when I manually press the switch rather than letting the motion sensor trigger it.

The switch "Kids Bathroom" has the load on it and gives the option to set On Level to On. All other controllers in the list force "Kids Bathroom" to be a set On Level, such as 100%, which I assume overrides the program.

Program Scene

When I look at the scene, I see the program had set the light to 40%, But if I highlight the controllers, the action still says Insteon On Level 100%, with the exception of the actual switch with the load on it. The switch with the load on it only says Insteon On Level is "On" so it can use whatever the saved on level of the switch is. All of the others allow me to select an on level of 0 to 100% but not "on". I think I have some misunderstanding of how to properly configure scenes.

ok, I figured out how to also adjust the scene to on level 40% as well. After updating and saving the program, which I am guilty of forgetting to do, the motion detector still turns on the light to 100% and when I manually turn it on it goes to 40% so I have no idea what I am doing wrong.

I currently have a program that updates an Insteon switch level from 100% in the day down to 40% at night. When I manually turn on the light with one of my 3-way switchs attached to that light in a scene, it works correctly. I recently added a motion sensor to that same scene, but the dimming level no longer changes at night and is always at 100%. I am not sure if I messed something up when adding the sensor to the scene or something else happened. Should I have the program change the on level of the scene rather than the switch that the load is attached to? Maybe I need to do both? I am not sure how to adjust the on level of a scene in a program as I tried to add this to my then line but could not find the option to adjust the scene's on level.

I suspect you are correct. Would be great id Alexa were backward compatible with Alexa+. It sounds as if this will roll out on some but not all Amazon Devices which will be awkward.

Any idea if Universal Devices will support the new Alexa+ coming out next month?

Michael said in my Ticket "Hi Even, you have to cut it at the perforation. "

Looking at the board now, it seems there are no traces that go to the upper half of the board beyond the "dotted line" so that looks like correct solution but will wait on the ticket.

Thanks. I will open a ticket to confirm.

Does anyone have any photos on how to assemble the Zmatter USB Dongle? The RF leads on the external connectors seem to be at the same height as where the Z-Wave/Zigbee card is supposed to be. Is the card supposed to somehow get placed beneath the RF Coax or above? I don't want to screw the card in and damage something.

sjenkins, you are right. Insteon gave me a 7-day trial on the director for hub 2. I can no longer find the legacy app on google play. I am able to add my devices in parallel with PLM as you say. I think with Director, it still doesnt do much. Just schedule and scenes. I am also starting to think about moving to my Polisy for the future lower cost UD subscription.

Ugh. I am in the same boat. Over 60 Insteon devices and still using ISY994i. Will probably sell my house in a year or so. I purchased Polisy and ZWAVE ZIGBE card. Installed into Polisy but never used. The level of effort to convert seemed to be over my personal threshold to make the switch. Then when eISY came out, I just couldn't bring myself to purchase the hardware when I just paid for Polisy and ZWAVE/Zigbe card. I think Techmans suggestion to use Insteon Hub 2 is spot on. I have a couple of the 2245-222 Hubs that were purchased a long time ago. Since the model number matches what is on Insteons site as a Hub 2, I assume it would be able to run the new director software. The issue there is I dont know what works and what does not work with the Insteon Director sw. ...and I guess I will have to factory reset all devices and re-program with the hub. I am not looking forward to this at all. I guess another option is to go hubless.

ok, I feel dumb now. I cut and pasted that hyperlink , but that wasn't the page I was aware of when asking the question. I may not have any questions and will now read. Thank you for that.

OK, I purchased the ZMatter! Z-Wave+ | Matter Module for Polisy (beta) There is very little information about this device. I assume it plugs into an open port inside my Polisy Pro. I have not opened Polisy Pro to confirm I have such a port. Then there is some text about enhanced range. I see two holes on the sides of my Polisy Pro where some antenna's could be mounded. Will this card come with the RF Cables and two antenna's that I can mount in those holes? I am currently still using my ISY994i and I have no Zigbee or Z-Wave devices. For now this will be just something to play with.

Thanks again. You are too helpful. It may take a few reads to catch on.

When I configure the portal to expose an Insteon Dimmer Switch I can control the light dimming level, however I typically use scenes to connect a light with a dimming switch as many of my switches are 3-Way or 4-Way. This means when I use Alexa, the device turns on but not all of the switches reflect the change. If I configure the portal to expose the scene, then all switches reflect the change, but I cannot control the dimming level as that is set by the scene. Are there any work arounds for this?

I went on vacation after my 19 May Post. It is strange that this issue just went away on its own. I no longer get these emails. Checked the battery in the sensor and everything is working. System is still up and running. I should probably get the sensor wet and see if I get the alert.

I appreciate all of the guidance. Thanks. I will give that a try, if it doesn't work, I am sure I can delete and re-enter. It was working for quite some time before this, so it is something I can do.

Shows they are 1 below. Strange that they display as blank in the email.
