Latest update... this email came in this morning. I guess the search system isn't sophisticated enough to know that it was already delivered: Thank you for using USPS.com. The US Postal Service® received the search request you submitted and it's being processed. Your package has not yet been recovered, but every effort is being made to locate your item(s). Search Request Details: Request Date: 01/09/2020 Reference: Search ID #8052660 Tracking Number: 9405511899561169442021 We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

Got it. Thanks both. Will likely try it today. . . . Update: It went super smooth. I tested Polisy using the Lifx Node Server and it worked perfectly as well.

I know I saw a post someplace (back in January) with detailed steps to upgrade directly from 4.6.2 to the current 5.x version but I can't find it now. Can somebody point me to it? No Z-Wave, just Insteon, Alexa, and Elk M1 to deal with.

I think my main message here is that there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with the way UDI shipped this. There is nothing they could have done to prevent the delay... it was 100% USPS. I suspect it is more specifically 100% USPS in California. I have never seen anything like this happen before anywhere else in the country.

It has arrived! First thing I notice is that there is no damage to the box and the mailing label is completely legible. The Address is correct and all scan codes are clean and well placed so no reason for any scanning errors. In big clear letters the label says: "PRIORITY MAIL 3-DAY" which, having been picked up on December 26th would mean it should have been delivered on December 29th . That makes it 16 days late! There must be some way to hold USPS accountable for a service level failure of this magnitude!

Missed that. thanks!

Mine shows it passed through Rochester Saturday which would normally mean delivery today but no current info in the tracking log so we will have to see what happens. I have gotten no feedback from my missing package submiossion... guess that was a waste of time. (When it got scanned in Rochester it should have flagged something that said it had been located)

Submission made. Let's see if it changes anything.

Got it. Thanks!

Thanks. Just brown right? Not one of those white "priority mail" boxes?

Good question! But seriously if somebody could tell me the size and color of the box these were shipped in I want to try to file a missing package claim to see if that motivates USPS to actually move it out of Santa Clarita.

I guess they were just kidding this morning... Your item departed our SANTA CLARITA CA DISTRIBUTION CENTER origin facility on January 8, 2020 at 6:34 pm. The item is currently in transit to the destination. Tracking Number: 9405511899561169442021

It's probably time to initiate this process. Can somebody provide the size of the package so I can put that on the form?

It says it shipped priority... what level do you have to go to if you want actual detailed tracking data? Anyway just got another update: January 6, 2020In Transit to Next FacilityYour package is moving within the USPS network and is on track to be delivered to its final destination. It is currently in transit to the next facility.

I'm still getting the same helpful status updates: January 5, 2020In Transit to Next FacilityYour package is moving within the USPS network and is on track to be delivered to its final destination.

I suspect it never really left Santa Clarita

I was just reviewing the update emails and noticed that the last entry keeps getting a revised timestamp. I wonder if it has really left the facility after all?

Next time I buy anything from a vendor in California I'm going to pay the extra for 2-day shipping so USPS will at least have some sort of delivery time obligation. I have never seen anything like this with USPS shipping from anywhere else in the country.

Finally got another update. Looks like it has just been sitting in California for the last 8 days and finally got shipped out this morning. Good thing this was sent Priority and not by some slower method!

Y2K20 bug!

Was hoping to get my Polisys before the end of the decade but it doesn't look like that is going to happen. I guess there is always next year.

Getting close now!

Very happy to see the new PLM specs... wonder how long till it is available? I would also like to see them resume custom etched labels for keypad buttons.

I wonder if a Lutron Pico wall bracket could also be used as backing for an Insteon RemoteLink2 ? Just holding the pieces in my hand suggest it could be made to work
