I need some advice/assistance...

 

Everything has been working fine with my ISY and programming for some time now. Two days ago, I noticed that the ISY didn't seem to be doing its job. Switches that triggered events no longer worked. (programming like... if fastoff lightA, turn off light B... which was setup in the ISY). I didn't think too much of it until this morning... when I found my garage door open.

 

Via the admin console:

- I could turn on and off lights (PLM seems to be working)

- I checked some of the switch link tables... and, to the best of my knowledge, they looked fine (I recognized the address of the PLM in some of the links)

 

- I turned off a light manually and checked the log... there was no Insteon entry for the event.... but there was an event logged that corresponded to the X-10 address that was associated with that switch.

 

- I checked the PLM link table... and it was blank.

 

I'm guessing that's my problem. Not sure how it got that way... I didn't do anything.

 

I have a backup (via "file", "backup ISY")... but I noticed that when viewing the PLM link table... there was a "save option". (I'll bet that's where I backup my PLM's link table?... thank you ... nice place to put it. ).... unfortunately, I don't have a save of that.

 

What's my best way forward? Will a "restore ISY" restore the PLM link table?

 

I didn't want to start messing around before consulting with the experts.

Run File | Restore Modem (PLM). DO NOT RUN Delete Modem (PLM). The Restore Modem (PLM) will rebuild the PLM link database. After running the Restore display the PLM link table to confirm it has been restored.

Excellent!.... that did it... I'm back in business.

tkx!! much.
