starmanj Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 I just had a 2413s v1.5 go bad, so I ordered a v2.0 replacement. That came and worked for a day, its status lights are still good, but then I upgraded ISY with Zwave module and upgraded firmware to .18. Now it does not see the PLM at all, it boots in safe mode. I tried factory reset of PLM many times. I did get it to see PLM after a reboot once but never again. Anything I'm doing wrong? PS when I log into the PLM the dashboard never asks for user/password, but admin console does give the challenge. Don't think that would affect PLM communication though! Starmanj
Xathros Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Swap the cable between Port A on the ISY and the PLM with a known good cable. Power down the ISY, reboot the PLM, wait 10 seconds then power up the ISY. -Xathros
Teken Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 No where did I read you followed the Wiki for replacing the PLM besides hard resetting the unit itself.
starmanj Posted February 5, 2015 Author Posted February 5, 2015 Should have pointed that out. I did follow the Wiki for replacing the PLM by the letter. And it worked after doing that. It stopped working after I installed Zwave module and upgraded firmware. And I tried swapping ethernet cables as well. Argh...
Teken Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Not sure if this is remotely related but you did purchase the $1.00 Z-Wave activation firmware right? Also try to clear the Java cache selecting all options and reboot the system. Please note you need to download the latest ISY launcher or the link for the firmware installed. Otherwise strange access and screen population will be seen. Also if this is on a Mac please follow the link which Michel provided to Xathros in 4.2.23 Ideals are peaceful - History is violent
starmanj Posted February 5, 2015 Author Posted February 5, 2015 Good suggestions FPS, I had in fact done all of that except reboot computer. On Win7. Rebooting now...

starmanj Posted February 7, 2015 Author Posted February 7, 2015 Turns out I did have two bad PLMs in a row. My third one works fine (first one was over two years old, second one I returned, third arrived today and works fine). Thanks for the help isolating the issue Steve, Teken and Xathros!
Xathros Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Always happy to help. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
