I am so curious how all of this will play out. Really hoping that ISY will embrace Matter full heartedly. It could be so great!

Correct. But if Polisy will be a proper Matter hub any devices connected it could be exposed via Matter. Same as Philip's Hue bulbs won't support matter but the Philip's hub will be upgraded to matter so that the bulbs will be exposed to matter via the hub.

What I would like to know is devices available on the ISY will be able to be used by other Matter Hubs. I'm way more interested bridging my Insteon devices from the ISY to other places than having matter devices show up on my ISY. Will this be possible?

I hope you have been able to solve your issue. **HIJACK WARNING - IGNORE IF YOU'RE STILL HAVING ISSUES** Your setup looks exactly like mine so I was wondering if you have had any issues creating your scenes, containing Insteon devices, in Home Assistant itself? When I place more than 3-4 Insteon devices into a Home Assistant scene not all of the Insteon devices respond. I assume the Insteon Network may get overwhelmed? However, when I create an Insteon Scene on the ISY itself and control the entire scene through a Home Assistant Switch the issue becomes that HA will still show the scene/switch as "on" even if not all devices of that scene are turned on. This will stop my automations inside HA from working correctly since they will not turn the scene on again since they believe it's still on. So if I tell Siri "Set the scene arriving home" it will turn on all of the lights and the HA switch for the scene turns on. But then if I turn off just one of the lights in that scene the HA switch will remain as "on". So now when I tell Siri "Set the scene arriving home" it won't turn that light back on since the entire scene still shows as activated in HA. Wondering how you are dealing with this?

Yep. Disabled and deleted. ?

Hahahaha 100%! I have to say I can't fault them. I didn't even remember I had this set up. This has been driving me NUTS for about 5 days now. Been searching high and low for the solution hahaha. Thankfully @Geddynudged me to check the summary tab...

Hi @GeddyI FIGURED IT OUT! Years ago I had set up a vacation mode light program: It appears the guest switched on that button and I didn't remember I ever set this up... WOW! Thank you so much for your help!

Oh interesting!! Will it also tell me where a command is coming from? Like if it's coming from HomeAssistant via an API or directly from within the ISY?

Hi guys, I have a bizarre issue. The guest in my home was reporting that some lights keep turning on every night around 9pm. I finally checked the logs and surely enough there are 4-6 lights that seem to be turning on ever night: My setup is like this: ISY994 --> HomeAssistant (Via official ISY plugin) -> HomeKit (via HomeAssistant Plugin) I don't have ANY automations set on either my ISY994, in my HomeAssistant, or in my HomeKit that would turn on this random collection of lights. This also started happening recently (I'm still going down the log to find out exactly when). Is there any way I can figure out WHO is issuing these commands? Is it the ISY directly? Is it my HA, or HomeKit? It just says "system" in the ISY log. Any help would be greatly appreciated. It's driving me absolutely nuts!

Hey, @MrBilldo you happen to have any thoughts on this one? Would be awesome if there's a way to get the ISY scenes to turn OFF on HA as soon as the states don't match the lights on the ISY anymore.

I would like to do that too but my problem with that is that HA reports the scene as “on” even if not all the lights of the scene are on OR if they aren’t set to the right brightness. So it’s impossible to toggle it even if just a few lights of the scene are on. Do you know a workaround to this @MrBill?

Thanks, mate. I finally took the plunge! Everything seems to work BUT any HA scenes with more than 3-5 Insteon devices and execution seems to become very slow and unreliable. Way slower and unreliable than it was through my homebridge setup. What is your experience with this @MrBill?

About to take the plunge on this and wondering if any of you have any insights on this?

I think I just solved the issue simply by pressing "save changes" in the programs tab, even though, I have made no changes. Now everything seems to work again...

Hi guys, I finally upgraded my ISY994 from 4.5.4 to 5.0.16C and overall everything still seems to work. I can control all of my Insteon devices right from the admin console. However, my programs that used to keep my Insteon Keypad button status in sync with the device status don't seem to work anymore. Previously I had it set up that if I turn on an Insteon light remotely the physical Insteon keypad button would also turn on. That way the buttons and lights were always in sync no matter if the light was turned on via the physical button or remotely. This is how one of the programs for the "Art Light" looks: And here you can see the device tree: I'm not sure why this simple program no longer executes after upgrading to version 5. Is this no longer the recommended way to keep an Insteon Button Light status in sync with the device? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
