jgcharlotte Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) Woke up this morning to a crashed system. Rebooted ISY (v4.7) and PLM, restarted admin console and stuff started limping to life. But when I restarted the admin console it kept trying to communicate with a module I had unplugged and disabled. Did that forever, finally stopped and the system appeared to be working normally. So I deleted the module. Started the progress bar thing again, finally stopped. But I looked in the even viewer and it seems to be constantly hammering the network, that same module. No other indications that it was doing anything. I think it may have been doing this for quite some time, I have been having some intermittent reliability problems since Christmas, and this was a module i used for Christmas decoration. How can I stop it? Plug the module back in? (LOL I can't remember where I put it, probably with the tree) Thanks! 20.74 is the module in question. Edited January 30, 2019 by jgcharlotte
ronvond Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 I had exactly the same problem with my outside Christmas lights. I unplugged my z-wave outdoor module, stored it with my lights and the next time I tried to get into the admin console I was locked out. Nothing worked until I dug my Christmas light module out of storage and plugged it back in. I was then able to get into the admin console (4.7.3), disable said module and store it back with the Christmas lights. Everything worked fine after that. Guess you’ll have to search for your missing module! Good luck Ron

jgcharlotte Posted January 30, 2019 Author Posted January 30, 2019 Well I found it, not in the tree box, but still plugged in with an outlet strip plugged into it, to which the other night I had connected a SUBWOOFER. Great. I didn't realize that strip was coming from a dimmer module. The power supply of the subwoofer was probably killing the signal. As soon as I plugged it in by itself, the message avalanche went away. Sigh. . . .
