New user and new Isy what firmware?

[notslow]

Hi Everyone,

I have just connected a new isy994Zw/Ir pro. I'm still reading up on setup. Nothing done yet, but I did read about having to update to newer firmware to use node servers. Is this correct and what would be the recommended firmware? I have extensive Hue lighting, so I am hoping to gain some control with Isy.

You are correct sir. 5.0.14 is the newest version which also allows node servers.

Go to https://forum.universal-devices.com/forum/88-software-releases-updates/ for the firmware information.

Go to https://forum.universal-devices.com/forum/56-developers/ for the Polyglot information.

There is a good Youtube video set about the Polyglot installation in there. Dig around.

Have fun!

Here is the latest firmware link: 

Here is a link to the ISY994i Home Automation Cookbook with a lot of information and examples: http://www.universal-devices.com/docs/production/The+ISY994+Home+Automation+Cookbook.pdf

This book has a lot of information on Polyglot and NodeServers. There is also a Hue NodeServer available.

Thanks for the help everyone. So the latest beta is safe to install? Looks like it's been around for awhile, I'm guessing no major bugs.

If you can find one bug in v5.0.14 I will pay for your  cost of the upgrade firmware.
