Thanks @IndyMike and I appreciate you tinkering around and testing all this out. Sounds like you've had as many expletives through this testing as I have. I'm not sure when I'll be back at the vacation home but will try at minimum to un-associate the devices, re-associate, and then get them direct connected. Admittingly, Hubitat's web interface and drivers are kind of kludgy. Looking back I would have been better off associating with my Home Assistant instance. Live and learn I guess. This is the never ending project for me it seems like 😅

Great informative response, thank you @IndyMike ! I didn't know about excluding and including them again after a firmware update, I will give that a shot! You are correct on the dimming. I have LED's and dimming with a slave dimmer gives a crazy delay. I can't really change them because this is a new construction house with those bucket lights that are flush (kinda) with the ceiling. I didn't realize on the dimmer and LED issue though, so thanks for the education, I never had issues with all my LED lights in my main home and using Insteon dimmers. I do like the idea of using double and triple taps to assign different percentages, right now I have double tap assigned to go to 100%, maybe a triple tap would just do 50% and be good enough. I will definitely try this when I'm back up there. Great ideas for me to try, thank you!!

Thanks again for responding. I think at this point it's a Zooz Switch issue because I have them all set up as a direct link so they aren't going through the Hubitat hub. I did some extensive troubleshooting and have a post on the Hubitat forums. Notice it's from 2024 lol So yeah, it's been a thorn in my side for a while :) Virtual 3-Way Zooz Dimmers too slow - 🛎️ Get Help - Hubitat Here my setup at my vacation home: Hub: Hubitat C8 Dimmer Switches: Looks like they are Zen72 I think I'll try with the Innovelli's and if the problem is gone, then it was a Zooz problem. Trial and error is fine with me cause it gets me something to do while I'm up there. I'm surprised to hear you switching out the Insteon's, they've been fantastic for me at my primary home! ISY+Insteon+ Home Assistant (for my automations and my zwave/zigbee devices) has been rock solid!

Hi IndyMike, thanks for replying but my Zooz switches are in 'virtual' 3-way mode. The Master is connected to the light, and the slaves are the other two 'virtual' switches and not direct wire. There is a noticeable delay with ramp rate on the slave switches. I basically have to remember which switch is the master and use that one for any of my dimming needs. PITA but luckily I don't have to change the light dimming very often.

Thanks for being the voice of reason Geddy. 100% agree with you that I can probably live with it and everything else works fine. That being said, I could essentially try replacing just 3 switches with Insteon and do the programming from the devices themselves to see if it gets fixed. This way The Hubitat would still be controlling all the other switches and my 'test' would be on their own (which is fine). Then again, I think I'm just looking for another project for me to do lol

Thanks for replying. I'm definitely thinking this is a problem to be solved by Insteon, I'll add it to the list to try.

Ahh right, I called them groups. Yep, I have scenes at my normal home set up in 3-way setups and I've had no issues either.

Hi All, Been a long time member since ISY, and now using Eisy for my home. I have a vacation home with a bunch of Zooz Z-Wave devices that are connected to a Hubitat C-8 hub. I also have Home Assistant that is able to see the Hubitat devices. Every time I get an email from UD, I'm always asking the question 'Should I upgrade to Eisy at the vacation home?'. So wanted to get some thoughts from everyone. Currently the issue that I have in the vacation home is that I have multiple 3-way switches that are set up in master/slave configurations. No matter what I do, there's always a slight delay when using one of the slave switches. This is irritating as heck for me and the wife. So wondering if I get the Eisy, will my troubles go away since I can set up switches in groups? Is my issue a Zooz Z-Wave issue or a Hub issue? I've done all the troubleshooting I could have (Zooz said to set up in direct connect mode, didn't fix it), and the issue still persists. I guess my options are: Try different Z-Wave devices (leaning toward inovelli), Try Insteon Devices, replace Hubitat. Any thoughts everyone? Thank you!

Thank you! Any chance the directions could be added into the user guide? Think it might help others who saw it as a selling point. Would also be good if the Polyglot web interface or IoX UI could do it so it's not command line driven, thanks again!

Just extra storage, like I said it’s overkill but might as well put the nvme I had lying around to lie around in some device

Sounds good, one of the selling points in their email to me to update was that you can add an ssd. Odd that there’s no real documentation or use cases for it.

So i popped in a 1TB NVME I had sitting around, how do I actually have the system use it? Granted it's complete overkill since I don't do fancy things with the Isy.. now Eisy, but it wasn't doing anything but collecting dust so figured I can pop it in. First I thought to go into configuration of IoX, not there. Then thought in Polyglot there would be a way to 'format' and at it. Nope. Are there instructions for it, because I couldn't find anything on the Eisy user guide I used to migrate off of ISY. Thank you!

Thanks, I can read python code but am not a programmer. In the past I usually look at peoples example code and piece together something that works for me. Its ugly and time consuming for sure.

Looks like home assistant can do what I'm looking for so going to install it tomorrow and tinker over the weekend

Thanks for getting me this far, I certainly didn't even think of running a website and the network resource kicks off the website that runs the script, thank you
