Michel Kohanim Posted February 3, 2009 Author Posted February 3, 2009 Hi, this is to get this post to stay on top. With kind regards, Michel Quote
jhimmel Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Installed fine - no immediate problems. Quote
jhimmel Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 The Compare bug (had to click twice) is confirmed fixed for me, as well as the bug that listed some "Identical" links incorrectly as "Extra Record" (GUI error) - also fixed for me. Jim H. Quote
to_lighter Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Hmmm. Can't upgrade. Pipe and length errors. This time I triple checked that I have the right version of the software. Any ideas? Cheers! Quote
Drosen Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Upgrade seemed to go fine but when I checked it remained at 2.6.14. Quote
ResIpsa Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Successful upgrade here with 99i/IR PRO. So far, so good. Quote
Michel Kohanim Posted February 3, 2009 Author Posted February 3, 2009 to_lighter, We never figured out why you cannot upgrade your ISY while I can remotely. If you don't wish to find the root cause, then please send your URL + userid/pwd to tech@universal-devices.com and I'll upgrade it for you remotely. On the other hand, if you would like to figure out the root cause, then please set up a time with our tech support. Drosen, Hi, hope all is well. Is this a 99 or 26? And, did ISY reboot after it finished the upgrade? With kind regards, Michel Quote

From my laptop I could not upgrade the ISY with either Safari or Firefox over WiFi. From my desktop, which is connected to the network by ethernet, the upgrade went without a hitch. Cheers! Quote
RLIKWARTZ Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 I've noticed that sometimes when I come into the Admin Console it will show the Ezrain status and sometime they are blank. If I go out and turn the first zone off then it updates the status. This has been happening for quite a while. It wasn't important, but I'm curious. Is this normal? Quote
dpeterson4ca Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Just upgraded one of my 2 ISY units which happens to be the ISY-26. I observed a successful upgrade and reboot, HOWEVER, in the "ABOUT" drop down, the version remains 2.6.14. I think this is a bug as the code is indeed different. (I actually verified the "...display device links... " COMPARE bug is fixed.) I don't know if this is the same for the ISY-99i, but will do that upgrade later today and report. Dave Quote
Michel Kohanim Posted February 3, 2009 Author Posted February 3, 2009 Hello Dave, This is indeed odd since, just to make sure, I reinstalled 2.6.15 on my ISY26 and it shows the correct version. Would you be kind enough to telnet to ISY, issue VE and let me know the results? If it shows 2.6.14 then it was not upgraded correctly. With kind regards, Michel Quote
dpeterson4ca Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Well, this is very weird... VE does display 2.6.14, but the upgrade obviously got loaded, rebooted and came up successfully. Is there a possiblity that the link to the new f-w is pointing to the .14 version? Quote
Michel Kohanim Posted February 3, 2009 Author Posted February 3, 2009 Hi Dave, It seems that the upgrade is failing. We have been able to reproduce this problem and are working on a fix now.

MikeB Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 There is currently an issue upgrading the ISY-26 to this firmware (release 2.6.15). For the ISY-26, please stay with release 2.6.14 until further notice. Thanks, and sorry for the inconvenience. Quote
Drosen Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Hi Michel-- it was the ISY 26 and it did reboot. Also the compare function worked first shot. Thanks , Dave Quote
steve_p Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 I upgraded from 2.6.14 to 2.6.15 without any problems. One thing I did learn when I first upgraded my firmware is it does not like NOD32 Antivirus. So I simply disable NOD32 each time I upgrade the Firmware and it works great every time now. So if anyone has problems upgrading to the latest firmware you might want to try disabling your antivirus first and then enable it once you finish installing the firmware. I also noticed with 2.6.15 that the Keypad LED Brightness button is working. Thanks, Steve Quote
RLIKWARTZ Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 I uninstalled and re-installed my EZRAIN and the status does seem to show up every time I come into the admin console now. Quote
G W Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Wow Michel, The upgrade to .15 went smooth from my notebook with Kaspersky installed. I used https to do the install and went first try. I'll check on the rest and soap later tonight. Quote
MikeB Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 We have released a new firmware version "2.6.0" to fix the issue upgrading the ISY-26 to this latest firmware release. Please follow the steps detailed in the 1st post of this thread. In short: - download/install firmware 2.6.0 (do not use a previously saved copy) - download/install firmware 2.6.15 Sorry for the inconvenience! Quote
jwagner010 Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Is there a quick reference guide to understand the Device Link Tables returned in the Compare? I can see the device addresses but don't understand the meaning of all the other bytes returned. Quote
Sub-Routine Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Is there a quick reference guide to understand the Device Link Tables returned in the Compare? I can see the device addresses but don't understand the meaning of all the other bytes returned. Yes, in the User Guide. Rand Quote
dpeterson4ca Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 The pre-loading of 2.6.0 has allowed a successful upgrade on my ISY-26 from .14 to .15. Also had a successful upgrade on my ISY-99i. Thanks, Dave Quote
dss Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 One minor thing I've noticed with 2.6.15. When I start the ISY interface on the list of devices, it seems to indicate that the I/O Linc Relay is on when it isn't. When I do a query on it then it changes correctly to off. It is a little disconcerting because the I/O Linc is connected to our gas fireplace. Quote
Michel Kohanim Posted February 5, 2009 Author Posted February 5, 2009 Hello dss, Thanks so very much for the feedback. We will get right on it. Is it the output or the input that has the wrong state? If the output, is it in any other scenes? If the input, is it controlling a scene? With kind regards, Michel One minor thing I've noticed with 2.6.15.
