Thanks Paul for the suggestion - tried it no luv. The sense side of the I/O link is not getting an on/off message from the gate board. The gate lock terminals are sending constant 12v rather than toggling open/close. Not sure my current plan would change things by addition of a dry relay. The lock terminals will simply supply power. I need to connect something from the gate board that tells it to change state when the gate is opening/closing

Nearby lightening strike knocked out my 15yr+ old GTO 2000xls pro opener and my 2 yr old I/o link. Have been Using the relay side to open/close the gate from UD MOBILE and using sensor to turn lights on for the carport and driveway. New GTO board doesn't have a N/O dry relay. I replaced both fried items, but my io link sensor doesn't ever change state (relay works fine). So , the program to turn on lights doesn't execute( see attachments for connection). ChatGPT suggests that I add a 12 vdc relay module in between the GTO board and the I/o link. So I'm thinking that I should buy the Aediko relay and power it from the gate lock contacts and use its n/o relay to create sense that the gate I has been powered from off to on (see attachments). Does that make sense to you? Final question: Given this is the 2nd time a lightening strike has fried my I/o link and gate board, would placing a ground rod on my gate do any good? My electrician thinks the aluminum posts, sunk 4 ft into ground should suffice. IDK, lightening keeps frying this equipment??! Aediko_Relay.pdf GTO2000xls_Outputs.pdf

I think Verizon has dropped support for the email to text option. But want to ask a question: My notifications are firing when prescribed, but delivering at random times. Some days later and at 330 am! Got tired of getting the "man your battle stations" sound at all hours of the day so I have deleted the notification node and notifications. Am wondering if I configured it wrong? Seemed really straight forward but I am days new to eisy

Wanted to report back on extending the serial plm cable: I simply bought a male to male rj45 coupler and attached it to UDI's serial cable and the 20' Ethernet cable I had been using. It works flawlessly.

Thanks Brian. I was hoping that only the 3 pins used by the udi serial adapter and the female Plm port were active. Do you think this is a bad assumption?

Okay that sorts out the PLM. I'm greedy - what's the thinking on the zmatter dongle? Can it be placed in a coat closet and provide reliable service? That dongle won't survive the Better Taste Committee which is chaired by my wife if it is to be mounted in direct line of site. Or is the trick to create a network of devices to pass that signal along?

Paul, my thinking on extending the serial cable is since it terminates into a male rj45 to extend it would be a simple matter of getting a female rj45 keystone and wire it with either standard a or b on both ends. The pin out is achieved via the serial cable, correct?

I'm ready to upgrade from isy994 to eisy. In the process of a remodel so I have to relocate my udi box and plm, and have questions about placement of the Plm and z matter dongle. Generally speaking both items operate on usb standards. As I understand, usb signals are limited to 16 feet of wire. Is this correct? Can I use a usb over ip extender for either of these or will it interfere with the signals? Additionally, in terms of placement what are the realities of location of the z matter dongle ? Can these be placed in closets and function well or does it have to be out in the open? Finally in terms of interference: I will likely have to add the wireless module to my elk panel...will this compete/interfere with the signals generated for zmatter and vice versa? Thanks for your help.

Can anyone tell me what's the length of the Serial PLM Kit cable? For some reason UD felt it more pertinent to only provide the weight of the cable an not the length. Also, was wondering if this cable length and the use of USB limits the maximum distance a PLM can be from the EISY? Or can I simply create an extension using RJ45 adapters and Cat5e cable? Thanks for helping.

Yeah by not putting manual at the end of my searches all I was getting was to smarthome and or insteon caches which are not connecting. Thanks for patience! BTW - almost all you will want is on www.manualsdir.com

I would like to get the docs associated with the 2443-222 micro switch, 2477D, 2334-235 and the 2466dw. I looked at the collection on pyinsteon and that seemed more developer-centric than user centric. Anyone have these?

So is there a listing of capacitors for replacement?

Thanks for the info! You think the old version has any real issues?
