The first thing I would question is if the problem occurs when the gas water heater that's plugged in is running. Normally I'd guess that it's not... that 90% of the time it works... it's running for some other reason and a signal is sent to the plug to turn the other outlet on and it never arrives due to noise. If that's the case a noise filter may be needed for the gas hot water heater/blower.

Sean I have no additional solutions for you. I know nothing about running java under linux. As @Geddy mentions, i'm not sure any of the forum regulars do.

There is an AMAZING Home Assistant integration that works with all versions of the ISY (ISY994, Polisy, eisy).

You say this is a long standing issue, did it ever work correctly? If you're seeing the ON value in the admin console, but the outlet has not turned on, that sounds more like a communication issue. There are many possibilities from bad device to noise makers and signal suckers. I just checked and 2663-222 does appear to be a dual band device, so that's good. Being intermittent makes it even harder to track down. If it consistently fails, you could open the Event Viewer and set level 3 in the dropdown, then try to capture failed communication traffic. Post the failed output in this thread and someone that amazing at reading the Event Viewer will likely come along and interpret it. Keep in mind, posting event viewer traffic where the outlet did turn on won't tell anyone anything, only when the admin console changed to ON but the outlet didn't turn on. How far away is the nearest dual band device? Perhaps try adding something closer. If it fails frequently enough that you can test, I'd turn off and unplug things on the same circuit as the pump and see if it works more consistently. If its a noise maker cause the problem, sometimes its possible to track those down turning off whole circuits.

I hadn't noticed that slot until this series of posts... and you're right it's probably an unsupported port, but OMG wouldn't it have been nice if UD had used it for migration. Pop your MicroSD out of the 994 pop it into the slot on eisy and watch the migration move forth.

I'm not a Mac user so this likely won't be much help. But are you installing the correct Java version? The Admin console is designed for Java 8. With Java the number after the word Java isn't a latest and greatest version number, the number instead denotes different distributions for various reasons. From an error message I'm guessing you're perhaps installing Java 11, its not that you can't get that to work, perhaps it can be made to work, but away from Java 8 you'll need to know what you're doing with java.

you would still need to use Home Assistants Universal Devices integration to bring your Insteon into Home Assistant. You would NOT use Home Assistants Insteon Integration. If two services were trying to use the modem they would both just be confused.
-
@Beaker Sounds like you should review this thread:
-
@Techman While possible it doesn't seem to be a problem. Also Insteon doesn't know what traffic it's repeating... that is whether it belongs to system A or system B etc. So all Insteon traffic is repeated, and the same collision detection and avoidance works regardless of which system is talking.
-
log into the portal https://my.isy.io click My Profile in the top right corner of the page and fix the dropdown or changed the other option to all ISY's on account.
-
@Illusion Sorry it sold already. I looked for this post to edit it and apparently got distracted before I found it. I was surprised at the interest... I took the first offer, but got a 2nd for actually more after it was already sold.
-
@LarryWSmith Multiple ISY's and PLMs can co-exist! There is literally nothing to do. I have 3 setups running in my house at the moment, 2 have PLMs. I have a production and 2 test systems running. If I add a module to the test system it only appears in the test system etc. no interference with the system that runs my house. When opening the admin console you just pick which ISY you want to work with...
-
say "Alexa, Discover devices"

did you migrate the portal settings? https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY_Portal_Migrate_configurations_to_a_new_ISY
-
@Ross they should, you may not be able to program all the options on an MS-II via the ISY tho. The important one is "on only" where the motion uses links to turn of the lights but uses a program on a controller such as above to turn off the lights.
-
If 'AA-Insteon Motion Sensors / Motion Sensor Bathroom / Bath Motion' is switched ON Then Wait 4 minutes and 25 seconds Set 'Master Bath / Andrew Vanity' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Seems to me this is what you're looking for. Each time the motion sends On the delay will restart. Remember that when an IF statement is re-triggered the program is re-triggered, which in this case effectively restarts the wait. Is it an original Insteon motion or an MS-II? they behave a little bit differently.
-
Have you restarted the admin console? Node information is only loaded at startup, data continues to update after.
-
that was my guess. I've got a sychrolinc I'll sell... almost new/never used. Purchased to monitor sump pump after reading a thread about synchrolinc failures I implemented something else... Only played with sychrolinc for 20 minutes with a 100 watt lightbulb as the test load and then put it back in the box. @Illusion if your interested PM me.
-
Not sure why your issuing shutdown with -p which is power off, can you use shutdown -r now instead? which is reboot. I guess my question would be, why would you want to power off remotely?
-
click the "My Programs" folder at the top of the program tree, then Copy Folder to clipboard as previously mentioned
-
Edit: Just realized this post is in UD mobile forum, so my reply is likely not applicable to the question, I'll leave it anyway... You can make a text copy of all programs.... You have to remember to update it after you make changes tho. Click the root folder of the program tree often named "My Programs". Right click the same, then choose "Copy Folder to Clipboard" at the bottom of the context menu. Open any text editor that won't add formatting (Windows Notepad is an amazing for this) Paste the clipboard into the editor File > Save As...... to review programs just open the file and scroll or use Find.
-
Now that I understand you're wishing there was less less lag for the light to come on, is it an original insteon motion sensor or the Motion Sensor 2? If it's Motion sensor 2 there's likely nothing that can be done, it was stripped of several features many of user here preferred. Motion Sensor 1 has jumpers, jumpers 3 and 4 might be helpful, Jumper 3 allows detection at night only, Jumper 4 only sends an On command via scene. In this case the scene would turn the motion on, your ISY program would watch for that to happen and start the off timer, then the ISY turns the scene back off.

Program not setting Int variable after Wait (Eisy)
MrBill replied to AllDigital's topic in IoX Support
If the state variable is included in the same program’s IF statement then changing it should be the last step of the THEN or ELSE body. the method to protect waits is to use two programs. The first program runs the then body of a second program, the second program disables the first program, does other things, then as it’s last statement re-enables program 1. A third program (disabled/blank IF) would be used with the ‘run at startup’ flag set to establish the second program is enabled. the ”phenomenon” that you’re observing is in fact expected behavior. -
Perhaps you should open a ticket.

Just to be clear, what's the current version of the program that you are testing? You've used several methods above. Click the Program name in the program tree, then RIGHT CLICK it, then choose 'copy to clipboard' (which is the LAST item on the context menu as shown below) then Paste the clipboard into the forum by clicking into a post as pasting (control-v is one method).
