pyrorobert Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 Would anyone know how to get the schematics to an IOLinc. I have one I just replaced but I would like to try and fix the one I have. If I was to have the schematics, I know I can fix it. Any help is greatly appreciated. Regards, Robert

But like every other device they should be taken with a grain of salt as most are not the actual product they produce or are way out of date. The USPO doesn't check technical details and they don't even offer QA.
Brian H Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 Since the I/OLinc is power line only. It will not be in the FCC Database. The schematics and parts lists maybe part of the FCC certification but are not available for public access. I believe each vendor can restrict what is made public. As other companies allow them to have the parts lists and schematics for all to see. Smatlabs does not. I have not seen any schematics of the I/OLinc. Any obvious symptoms like dead or only one function working? I always suspect power supply capacitors in Insteon devices. They all seem to use off brand ones in their modules. The earlier designed Insteon modules. Also had a 30 volt Zener Diode that would short or the PCB got so warm it sometimes fell off. I did find a replacement that seems to be working in a 2456S3 hardware 4.1 one I replaced.
pyrorobert Posted January 14, 2017 Author Posted January 14, 2017 It only has a comm loss, but it powers up just fine. I figure if it was a power loss it may have the same issue as the PLM.
Morris Hansen Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 I just replaced 4 caps in my IOlinc and it has been working for 3 days now. Just posted this over on the PLM repair thread. I used the same capacitors as was recommended for the PLM. My IOlinc would not communicate at all with the ISY which sounds similar to your problem.
pyrorobert Posted January 31, 2017 Author Posted January 31, 2017 Morris thanks for the head's up. I ordered the replacement caps and will try to replace them also. Regards, Robert
