Before UD mobile existed I reached the point I wasn't satisfied with any of the mobile options (mobilinc, ekeypad, agave, etc) and decided to try Home Assistant. My original intent with HA was simply to build a front end (dashboards) for the ISY, and that's where I started. It was actually the first mobil installation that was wife approved... she actually uses it, because the dashboards make sense, things were in order they needed to be for our house. Next thing that happened was a node server I was using broke, the developer was working on it but after a few days I abandoned the node server because there was an HA integration. Next my wife wanted some shades, they had a zigbee option... only way to get that back then was HA. Over time there's become a split between what the ISY is the controller for and what HA is controller for, but the two controllers communicate so well in both directions it behaves like a unified system. DDNS/Port forward is available when using HA.

this thread references both LIB_ERROR_403 and is one of the threads I mentioned earlier where someone tried to update via the portal: Another thread suggests your MicroSD card might not be seated correctly. and yet another suggests disabling firewalls during the firmware installation.

There's about 2 recent threads down in the HA sub-form you'll want to read https://forum.universal-devices.com/forum/128-home-assistant/

MobiLinc works with 5.3.4, mobilinc plays nicest with v4 releases... mobilinc hasn't been updated in years. Fewer and fewer people are using as time goes on. Don't unzip firmware files. upload the untouched .zip file to the ISY

The only difference between the two firmware versions in general releases posted in the forum is the first option looks for and requires connection to an Insteon PLM. The second listed version (i.e. if you do not have a PLM) doesn't require connection to an Insteon PLM, however if there is one present the firmware can still use it.

Try it if you like, I've never used the option. Every time I've read about it being used in the forum it's ranged from it doesn't work to how or why did you install version x.y (with x.y being specific firmware for a specific customer group) or other problems... I'm surprised you're even connected to the portal on a new SD card with no firmware loaded.

First question is what z-wave version is reported.... If 4.81.00 you have 300 series z-wave hardware and can only go to isy firmware 5.01.16C.... if the 6.8x.yy, or no z-wave, then you have 500 zwave can proceed to 5.3.4 as for your question.... if you do NOT have a PLM is the key phase. If you have Insteon use the one above that.... if you do not have Insteon, and do not have a PLM choose the one that says "if you do NOT have a PLM"

I don't see how you could be... but if that's what it show... are you using Mac or windows? Try downloading a fresh copy of the zip file and don't open it.

did you resave each network resource? try it on one first... if that works then you know what to do..

no. I'm not even sure why that option exists. so did you successfully install firmware? you must do that on a new card... 5.0.16C is as far as you can go if you have 300 series z-wave, 5.3.4 for 500 series z-wave or no z-wave installed. Don't unzip the file. are you using MAC or windows? windows is easier...

admin/admin After you restore your backup it should be back to whatever you set. thanks for the compliment 😀

open a ticket?

open a ticket, including the UUID number of the ISY. https://www.universal-devices.com/my-tickets/

If you open Locative to the first screen "Locations" and can long press your location and it will allow you to manually trigger an Exit event or manually Trigger an Enter Event. Trigger the exit and watch the node display in the admin console, it should change right away. Likewise you can trigger the enter event and watch it change back. did you copy and paste the urls, or attempt type them manually?

I think all of your issues are revolving around the corrupt MicroSd card. You may or may not have had a bad cable.

this is exactly the answer... sometime tho I write programs like IF $sX is not -999999999 then which to me immediately means "for any change in $sX" without analyzing. Pro-tip: name variables with the first character being s, i, or c... S for State Variables, i Integer variables, or c for Constant which is an integer variable that never changes values... i.e. $cTrue which is always 1 or $cFalse which is always zero. Using these conventions will make your programs easier to read. Pro-Tip, also when used in a If statement: a "state" variable is like a trigger, and an "integer" variable is like a filter.

I agree. I've had some luck with using a different bulb. Others have used a capacitor to solve the problem (but I don't remember much about the thread, so I'm not sure where it is)

it was a second poster on the first page of this thread that just interjected a question about programs for the last day of the month.

@j.rieff It's been awhile since i've done it. I never could get the SD card to pop out the slot of the front, it's much easier to open the 994... one of the 4 screws is under the label, feel for it then cut a circle with a Xacto knife. It seems like the socket on the SD card is spring loaded... i.e. push in to pop it out.

Correct. #6 should happen automatically in conjunction with #5, likewise it will also restart after #7

eisy is local just like the ISY. does it need to communicate with the internet ever? yes for updates, but not for day to day operation. Generally that true for Polyglot running on eisy too, but some node servers do require access to the internet if they are contacting a cloud based device.

If you got that, I think you need to replace your microSD card, that a sign.. so are the "mysterious" offline events you're experiencing. Make certain you have a good backup.. and don't delete any old backups at this point until you're back to stable again. Order a 32gb MicroSD from your favorite retailer, watch for the A1 certification. Any size below 32gb is fine, but not above. The most econmically priced tho will likly be 32gb. Install it in the ISY, the built-in bootloader is not a full version of ISY firmware, so the first step once you've replaced the card and get back into firmware is to reload the firmware via "manually upgrade ISY"... after the restart from that then you can restore your backup.

I assume it's still there on eisy... on Polisy you need to know the url to get there: http://IP.OF.THE.ISY:8080/WEB/udajax.htm basically the IP with :8080/WEB/udajax.htm appended. I read this page in the wiki, which is what I think you're trying to do, but I don't understand it either.

This came up in another thread recently (linked post and the next)... Wait with nothing following doesn't turn the flag green.

if you think you have firmware corruption... doubtful.. just reload 5.3.4 over your current 5.3.4. I don't think factory reset is going to help you get beyond this issue.. likely either your PLM is on the way out or you have a corrupt SD card in the ISY.
