Dear Friends,

 

I like the ISY very much!

 

How is the order of the items listed determined?

For example in this menu we can see the first 2 entries

http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:Node

 

BdRm 1-1 Fan Light

BdRm 1-A SW

 

I want to move  BdRm 1-A SW to the top of the list

 

I found an unusual way to reorder this list.

create  folder

add device to  folder

remove it from the folder which then moves it to the bottom of the list.

 

Is there an easier to move devices to show up at the top?

 

How can this be changed in the Web UI?

Welcome to the forums!!

 

As per the usual database and spread sheet ordering in MS products, UDI has implemented the technique to mouse click on the top line where the titles of the columns are.

Devices are listed alphanumerically for convenience (in finding them). The order has absolutely no effect on the order in which signals are sent, tasks are accomplished. You cannot rearrange the order. However, if you screen shows columns, then you can reorder a column in forward or reverse order, again, for convenience in locating a device (e.g., Insteon ID, name, etc.).

Thanks Larry and Stu!

 

We have lots of devices listed. Each of my 4 AEOTEC MultiSnesors contributes 4 lines (Temperature, Binary, motion and tamper) totaling 16 lines just for the sensors.

We also have fans, irrigation and light fixtures

 

We have several users who will access the ISY via the Web User interface and we need to to simplify their experience.

 

As I mentioned in my original post, I found an unusual way to reorder this list on the universal Devices Administrative Console..

create a  folder

add a device to that folder

remove it from the folder which then moves it back to the bottom of the original ISY list.

 

However this does not  manifest on the Web user interface.

 

Is there anyway to change the order on the Web user interface?

Anytime a device is added to a folder, it will be at the bottom of the list. but after you log out and later log in, the device will take its alphanumeric position. Your solution is temporary
