Blackbird Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I may upgrade my ISY and wondered if any new ISY hardware is coming out down the road? Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 @Blackbird, Definitely coming and we are working on it. This said, production ready fully loaded ISYs will not be ready for quite a while. With kind regards, Michel Link to comment
Blackbird Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Less than a year? Link to comment
Blackbird Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Can you talk about new features or hardware? Link to comment
beninsteon Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Would think (hope) it would be a device that runs ISY and nodeservers (Polyglot/Nodelink) in one? Link to comment

With the way UDI operates I would be highly surprised to see a new version released this year. They haven't even had a beta on one yet and 5.0 is still in beta as well (hard to imagine a brand new product shipping with beta software). Historically UDI has also given significant discounts to users who desire to upgrade their systems. So it can be cost effective a year or 2 down the road should you desire to have the latest unit. As Beninsteon said, most likely it'll be a unit with more memory, processing power, nodeserver capabilities all in one vs. needing a secondary device such as a raspberry pi and needing to do the work yourself.

Most high-tech companies will not "tip their hand" with new features. If they did, they can expect a stand-off audience, arguing that some other company released the same features before UDI did. Patents have been found to not function properly in the tech world. Reagan was wrong. Link to comment
Bumbershoot Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 If you start reading this thread from this post onward, you'll see that UDI is developing a stand alone device on which to run nodeservers. It won't be an ARM processor and it won't run Linux, so it's not an RPi. Link to comment
Michel Kohanim Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 @beninsteon, yes, node servers. @Blackbird, we should have the node server based bundle by 2nd Quarter. ISY firmware will be installed into the same hardware once available. Hardware specs: Quad Core at 1GHz 4GB RAM mSATA: between 16GB to 32GB WiFi/Bluetooth: Optional With kind regards, Michel Link to comment

Hopefully with an improved Administrative Console (without Java) ? Link to comment

Hopefully the node server administration will be built into the admin console? Link to comment

If this is the case, then I'll be a big proponent of this, simply for the simplicity and security of having ONE device to backup and maintain. I think this would be a big improvement in the usability department for UDI. Link to comment
