I'm not the one that was having a problem above, so I wasn't trying to solve it, I made a suggestion that the person should be using "The Launcher" and linked the thread that contains it. If using "The Launcher" (start.jnlp) as I linked and you've also checked this issues that @DennisC linked then you could perhaps uninstall Java, remove any remaining working directories that Java creates, then re-install java making sure that you are using the download from https://www.java.com Or you might open a ticket by emailing support@universal-devices.com for personalized help. If you're using admin.jnlp make certain you are using the correct version. "The Launcher" (or start.jnlp) is the more modern and better method however it does require an internet connection to work.

in your example above the specific difference is: If 'South - MS - Dawn Dusk' is switched Off And From 6:00:00AM To 9:30:00AM (same day) If Sunrise is at 5:21 this will run and evaluate to false because it's not in the time window, it's also false at 6:00am and 9:30 because "AND South - MS - Dawn Dusk is already off" For this to evaluate TRUE South - MS - Dawn Dusk must switch off between 6 and 9:30 AM, but it still runs false at 6 and 9:30 If 'South - MS - Dawn Dusk' is switched Off OR From 6:00:00AM To 9:30:00AM (same day) At 5:21 AM this will be true, it will also be true at 6AM and false at 9:30 this will also be true if sunrise is between 6am and 9:30am

@PBatavia01 Try this thread:

As far as we all know USER 1 - 9 is functionality that has never been implemented. Although it exists in the menu, the functionality simply doesn't work. I read and contribute here everyday, and this question gets asked from time to time, and no one has ever had other information. It seems there was some intention, but it has never been built out. For example, what would a non-admin user be able to do or not do? there's also no mechanism to determine what would or wouldn't be allowed for a "non-admin user".

If you have a portal account use Locative for geofence on IOS: https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY_Portal_Node_Server_Occupancy_%26_Locative_app_Instructions

Exactly. the switch doesn't say anything to the ISY, it's an Insteon firmware bug.

re-read this thread: do you think that's what the issue is in this thread? I do.

This is the issue.... the switch doesn't send the second press in certain cases.

5.3.2 fixed the long running Insteon 'adjust scene' bug. There's no reason not to move up to 5.3.3 if you don't have a z-wave board installed. If you have a Z-wave menu check the version. if it's 4.55.00 stick with 5.0.16C.... if it's 6.81.00 or the z-wave menu doesn't exist move on up to 5.3.3

This is what I thought too... I looked briefly for that thread to link it but couldn't remember enough details to find it.

Interesting. I learned something that I don't think is well documented, I actually looked before I typed.....

at startup all programs are red to begin with. As they Run the Red band means the If statement evaluated false last time the program ran and the Else clause was last executed. When they turn green it mean the IF statement evaluated True last time the program ran and the Then clause was the last executed. If you see a solid red or green it means the program is currently running and is probably "waiting" for a wait to expire.

Do you mean you deleted your existing portal account and are attempting to add a different account? Or does "another" mean you are trying to connect two portal accounts to the same ISY? If the latter, I don't think it's possible, I'm pretty sure the ISY will only connect to one portal account at a time whether ISY portal or mobilinc connect you only get a single choice.

(my post here was not correct, self removed)

I agree you need at least 15 seconds for valid testing. Another solution/ troubleshooting step might be to use "Control". i.e.: If 'Guest Bath Fan' is switched on. You could also open the event viewer (Tools > Diagnostics > Event Viewer) and change the dropdown to level 3 and show us what happens when it fails.

to post the programs right click the name in the tree and pick Copy to Clipboard from the context menu, then paste each into your next reply. Be sure and post both.

When i did this a few months ago it was hard to find less than 16gb in stock. my old (original) was 4 gb.

4.5 reload the firmware version you are using. After when you restore the backup you can answer the question at the end of the restore "No", I can't remember the wording, but "reset to DHCP" or something... If you answer it "yes", then you need to reset your SMTP server and timezone and maybe another config option. either way check through your config settings after restore.

I would try clearing your java cache perhaps.... After that check help > about and make certain your firmware and UI versions match.

@PrasUnfortunately you're are on firmware Version 4 still (Help > About), and to be honest I don't remember details of these screens very well, it works slightly differently in V5.x. Hopefully someone will come along and be able to guide you.

You might want to try out the TimeData nodeserver, it might give you better sunset calculations for your location. I note that mine are a few minutes different than the ISY's but that might just be the precision of the long/lat coordinates that I entered. The nodesever also has a true/false flag for whether you are in or out of DST-- which at the very least would allow you to adjust your times via ISY programs rather than having to fiddle with it several times a year. If you don't have Polisy/polyglot locally there is a cloud version of that node server available, you just need a portal subscription (and ISY firmware V5.x) to use it. To find it login to your portal account and click Open PolyGlot in the upper right corner. In the store you'll see TimeDataPGC. More instructions here. If your still on version 4 or don't want to mess with Polyglot, you could also use the programs in the post linked below by @kclenden. You'd want to add one more variable, integer should suffice, $iDST and set it zero or one in the appropriate THEN statement, and set the init each time. Then you would have a DST flag to use in your programs. Adding that revision would change 2 programs of the set as follows: DST_Check_1 - [ID 00BB][Parent 00BE] If Time is 1:05:00AM And $iDST_Hour_Check is 1 Then // $iDST_Hour_Check should have been set to 0 at 12:05AM. The only way // for it to be 1 now is if 1:05AM happened and then happened again. // This should only occur during "Fall Back" when DST is changed from ON // to OFF and the clock goes from 2:00AM to 1:00AM $sDST_Alert = $cTrue $iDST = $cFalse $iDST Init to $cFalse $iDST_Hour_Check = 1 Else $iDST_Hour_Check = 1 DST_Check_3 - [ID 00BC][Parent 00BE] If Time is 3:05:00AM And $iDST_Hour_Check is 1 Then // $iDST_Hour_Check should have been set to 2 at 2:05AM. The only way // for it to be 1 now is if 2:05AM never happened. This should only // occur during "Spring Forward" when DST is changed from OFF to ON // and the clock goes from 2:00AM to 3:00AM $sDST_Alert = $cTrue $iDST = $cTrue $iDST Init to $cTrue $iDST_Hour_Check = 3 Else $iDST_Hour_Check = 3 of course you need also still need the additional programs in the other thread.

You need to set your scene up two ways..... With the scene open, click on the name of the scene, configure the "action" or on levels... this configuration sounds like it's the one that is currently wrong, this is what happens when the scene is actuated by a button in the admin console or from a program. The second place to set the scene is to click on any RED controller links below the name of the scene, set here the 'action" or on levels for when the scene is operated by the controller button. Another method entirely, but some people don't realize this is possible. If you always want those lights to be controlled together, you don't even need to the controller button. Just put BOTH switches in a scene, and make them BOTH controllers. Set both red links up and the root level scene to turn the lights on. Now when one switch is turned on, so is the other, and vice versa.

That doesn't necessarily mean they are on the same network. For example 192.168.1.10 and 192.168.2.20 both with standard subnet masks of 255.255.255.0 are not on the same network even tho they are plugged into the same physical network.

Create a pushover account and load @Jimbo's notification nodeserver. If you get stuck, please feel free to ask me anything... I'm currently working with Jimbo on improving the documentation files.... finding out what you have trouble with will help. I've had the nodeserver for a long time and am just now understanding a couple things regarding it's operation.

You must not have the time values configured correctly. In the Admin console on the Configuration Tab Click the button Change Location. There is a dropdown on the resulting window for whose daylight savings rules to use. Is that dropdown set correctly? (You'll note the Daylight Savings time Checkbox on the main config tab is greyed out, that's because it moved into the dropdown on the next screen...worldwide DST rules are complicated and a single checkbox doesn't do it anymore.) There is a time-data nodeserver that will return DST vs standard time, but I don't think you actually need that, I think your timezone and location must not be set correctly. BTW, entering custom coordinates on the change location dialog will better fine tune the calculated Sunset/sunrise times. For me the closet listed City is Chicago but it is much further north and east which makes a difference of 20 minutes or more to the calculated time.
