Intermittent Comm Issues


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have had my UD and about 80 insteon devices for 6 years.  In that time I have seen the reliability increase due to the dual band products, but for the last 12 months or so I have been seeing a decline in reliability of my system.  I will go a week or so with no issues and then scenes won't complete and programs won't execute properly.  I can't think of any devices or appliances that have been added that could create interference and since the problem is intermittent I can't track in down.  Has anyone written a comprehensive guide to track down ghosts in the system?  How to test each device or systematically eliminate each one as a source of the issue?  By the way sometimes reseting the UD994 helps, but not always.

It's possible that your PLM is failing and/or you may have added some electrical devices in the house which are causing communications issues such as a power cube charger for a laptop, etc.

Does rebooting both the PLM and ISY (in that order) resolve the problems for a while?  If so, I have to suspect a failing PLM.  If not, then I suspect a noisemaker or signal sucker on your power line is interfering with the comms.
