I'm having the same issue as of yesterday. I'm wondering if this is something on UD's end? I get all kinds of Java errors when in Admin console and then the lower red flag of death, which means I can't control anything.

This is why I hate Z-Wave. I feel like we're going backward with technology. Shouldn't be this hard or this many steps.

Same problem here with my Schlage lock that has worked for years. This appears to be a global problem for all Z-wave lock users and not a local problem.

I have several family members both at home and remote who get various notifications form my home system via email to text. Lately, it has been very unreliable, very delayed or doesn't work at all. I am interested in checking out both Pushover and UDI Mobile notification feature. My question is, does this require each and every recipient to now have either Pushover app or UDI Mobile on their phones? The beauty of the text message is it can be sent to anyone, with or without a necessary app on their phone.

Supposedly, Insteon is now back online...... https://www.insteon.com/blog/2022/6/9/fnustys354bfmcmchr36wgvrn5h41z

I have no problem adding and removing Z-wave switches to my IoP, but form the device configuration screen, I can see where you can set the values for Fade Rate, but cannot get the changes to write. Is there a special procedure for this?

This was very helpful for me. Been working IoP with PG2 for several weeks and decided today to try to migrate from PG2 to PG3. I have 8 Nodes and several that needed purchasing. Here's the problem I'm having: - When going into PG3, the first thing that I need to do is add the ISY. But when I do, the Nodes come up on the dashboard all saying unmanaged and "no details". Expected since I haven't restored the PG2 backup.bin file yet. When I try to "Restore PG2 to xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" nothing changes and the existing slots remain inactive. - The migration instructions say to purchase any node licenses prior to restoring. But when trying to install those nodes, it wants to put them in NEW node slots (starting at 9 for me) since the existing ones are already occupied. For example, my Ecobee is in slot 2, but when I purchase and try to install the Ecobee node, the only slots available start at slot 9. It won't allow me to put it in slot 2. And it doesn't allow me to delete the existing nodes in the dashboard. - Trying to Restore the PG2 file before adding an ISY is impossible since the "Restore PG2 backup. to 00:00:00:00:00" option is not there until you actually add the ISY first. It seems to me that I would have to delete all of the nodes in PG2 first, then restart Admin Console to remove them from the ISY, then go back into PG3 and restore the Nodes to their proper slots and HOPE that they will re-appear in Admin Console in their proper positions. Am I missing something?

Absolutely! Thanks kzboray.

I am running ISY on Polisy in parallel with PG2 at the moment. Looking to convert form PG2 to PG3 (I never used the PG Cloud). Now that Polisy allows remote access (through ISY Portal) to Admin Console, I was wondering if it is possible to access the PG3 page remotely (not on local LAN) as well? Will it leverage ISY Portal as a DNS to access PG3? I guess alternately, I can use a DNS service to get to it.

Programming the new Z-wave decide you are adding should be done near to the ISY. Relocate to its final location but then be sure to Refresh you Z-wave network. This allows the final routing tables to be updated.

Same situation has happened to me as well. Appears to be a problem with Locative. Thanks for the good advice Mr. Bill!

Jon - I think with MobiLinc you can still have the Network Resources module separately. It was only when you purchase Portal that the separate Network module goes away because it is already incorporated into Portal. Tony

This is just a guess, but I was an ISY-99 user for many years before I upgraded to the ISY-994i about 3 years ago. From my experience and what I have seen on these forums, this All On/ All Off issue really came about around the time the ISY-994i's were being sold. I had Motion Sensors before that with the ISY-99 and never had a problem. Some people believe the issue is with motion sensors trying to communicate while a wallpad is also trying to communicate at the same time. My Motions Sensors do not directly link to any scene or device, I do that through routines in the ISY. However, I STILL get the occasional All On happening. I have definitely identified that it occurs when a MS detects motion. But that's about it. Not saying that it is the ISY-994i product, but sure seems like it. Tony

I purchased ISY Portal yesterday and have gone through extensive testing and research using these forums. I have used used MobiLinc for a few years now, including Geofence for each of our family members. I did not cancel Mobilinc until I have fully tried ISY Portal. My reason for trying Portal was to get the Amazon Echo to work with my ISY-994i as well as IFTTT (If This Then That). While I was able to get IFTTT working (pretty cool actually), Based on my testing thus far, I find that ISY Portal is lacking the following: MobiLinc App can be configured to work over ISY Portal, but it must go through the portal website which means you are communicating "external" even when your are home on your WiFi. So speed and performance lag as opposed to MobiLinc Connect which allows it to connect to your ISY locally for best speed. The workaround is to set up 2 profiles in MobiLinc, one for local (direct connect) and one for away (ISY Portal) but this is inconvenient and quite frankly unacceptable. Can no longer setup up multiple profiles for additional ISY's in MobiLinc, unless you set up different ISY Portal accounts for each. The Portal has to designate only one ISY as primary so when you log in it knows which UUID to sync with MobiLinc. Again, unacceptable. There is no other App that I am aware of for iOS or Android that works with the ISY other than MobiLinc, eKeypad, and Intellihome. None have been made to work fluently with ISY Portal (yet). Geofence variables can no longer be created or deleted under Location Settings in MobiLinc, when setup to work with ISY Portal. You are now required to use IFTTT for Geofencing (creating recipes for home and away triggers). And if you have more than one family member that uses this with your ISY? You have to create 4 different accounts in IFTTT to work with each of their phones. Setup with ISY Portal to work with your ISY is not as simple and convenient as it was to subscribe to MobiLinc. You have to go between email, the ISY Portal website, and Admin Console to juggle all of the setup and approval requirements. The nice thing that Apple gets is making things simple for everyone to do. UD should have focused on creating a native App for their ISY first, then creating ISY Portal to work seamlessly with that App, taking advantage of all the Geofence, Echo, and IFTTT features available. It doesn't look like UD thought this through. Until then I might be asking for a refund until ISY Portal finds a way to improve the user experience. Tony

I figured it out. Even all of the links were shown properly in Admin Console, they weren't in the various devices. Had to delete and re-create my scenes to re-load the links into each of the devices. Thank you all for your help. Tony
