Doing some consulting. Teaching at Orange Coast College also.

For those interested I am going to be doing an online class with the Polisy / ISY and the Camect Hub. Jimbo wrote a node for the Polisy that lets you use camera analytic input to trigger things in the ISY. I will be using this to demonstrate the integration process of the components and show some of the things that can be accomplished. Example: If Camect sees a Bear outside turn a Philips Hue Bulb Red or if a camera sees a person in a room turn the light on. You can register Here Steve.

KHouse, V 2.1 is the current shipping version.

There are some issues with the link above. Here is another link. https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=nE6FN4W3eSo

I spoke with Chris this morning and gave him a few things to try. One of them was to remove each bulb and then introduce a bulb one at a time to see if any one bulb is causing the issue for the entire load. Since the loads were working on the keypad for the previous six months my feeling is one of the bulbs is causing the misfiring of the others.

Here is a link to a video on the Amazon Echo / ISY 994i Integration. This is just a first pass at an instructional video for the setup. UDI will work on future updates to this integration in the coming year. As always please contact our support department at support@universal-devices.com if you have any questions. https://youtu.be/_3rx861eT_M

Techman, The ISY will show the Enery Display when you try to add it but it is not supported. You can however add the iMeter Solo and monitor the current draw. One note: the iMeter Solo does not handle inrush very well. I had one on an evaporative cooler and at high speed when you turn the load on it will blow out the IMeter Solo. My evaporative cooler has a 1/2 horse motor.

rayzor, It sounds like the I/O Linc might be right on the edge of consistent communication. You can try to open the Event Viewer in the Admin Console and set it to Level 3. Now query the I/O Linc and see how many hops away it is. If it says 0 hops remaining then all it takes is a little noise and the I/O Linc may not get the signal back to the PLM. Since the I/O Linc is a signal band device you are limited to the powerline only. Sometimes plugging a Range Extender into the pass through outlet of the I/O Linc can help with signal propagation.

jkraus, Before I would change the keypad I would do a factory reset on it, delete it from the ISY and add it back in. Then put the "A' button back into the scene and try it. You can also open the event viewer and set it to level 3. Tools > Diagnostics > Event Viewer When you push the "A" button you should see traffic in the viewer. If you do and the scene still doesn't work then please be kind enough to send a support request to support@universal-devices.com and we can login to your computer and take a look.

Glad to be of help.

50-50, I am going to be calling you shortly.

sandpiper, This may be something you might want to contact me directly about. support@universal-devices.com Here are some options. With the ISY you can add your devices into the system and choose to keep the existing link relationships. Since you have what I would consider a small about of devices and programming needs I would just add the devices into the ISY and choose to remove existing links. This way you do not pull in any link problems that may have existed previously. Venstar makes a thermostat that supports heat pumps and can connect with the INSTEON wireless communication adapter. As far as sensors you can purchase an INSTEON I/O Linc and connect a temp value sensor (two wire sensor set to close at a particular value) to it for alerts. This way the sensor is connected to the powerline and you can get the signal a greater distance. Please feel free to contact me and I can go into greater detail with some options.

EricK, The full 2477d INSTEON dimmer switch is currently $38.49. It is higher wattage then the icon switches.
