Michel Kohanim Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 @Blackbird, I mean additional features that will be represented just like how we represent ISY models. The base is ISY + additional features. With kind regards, Michel
Blackbird Posted June 20, 2019 Author Posted June 20, 2019 So how many nodes and programs will the current Polisy be capable of? Or do you know yet
giesen Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 So how many nodes and programs will the current Polisy be capable of? Or do you know yet Given that CPU Power and Memory have been increased like a thousandfold, I'm guessing a lot.Sent from my SM-N9500 using Tapatalk
Michel Kohanim Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 @Blackbird, At the minimum, 1024 nodes and 1000 programs. With kind regards, Michel

Given our horrid history with Z-Wave boards (manufacturing, certification, FCC, obsolescence, etc.), we are considering vetting one (max of two) USB dongles that work reliably (700 series). We are researching. @Michel Kohanim - Will there be an option to have Zigbee along with INSTEON, Z-Wave and Bluetooth in the Polisy Pro?
Michel Kohanim Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 Hi @mapeter, Polisy has USB ports so anything is possible (short answer). Long answer, currently our plan is to support Zigbee (or anything else) through node servers. Just need developers to take on this task. With kind regards, Michel 1
Techman Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) What type of interface will be available to access Polisy? Will there be an option to xfer existing ISY data to the Polisy or will the Polisy database need to be reconstructed from scratch? Edited July 10, 2019 by Techman

I only access the UI about 4 times a year. I feel like I have to learn everything all over again each time and still often have to come to the forum for advice on how to setup what seems like should be a simple program. I would have preordered Polisy if I knew it had a much better UI, but I was expecting something very similar to what we currently have.

I cannot give you accurate ETAs. Suffice it to say that we have been working on the port for over a year now and it's continuing in a good pace. INSTEON, there's a DB9 jack on the back which will be used to communicate with INSTEON. Given our horrid history with Z-Wave boards (manufacturing, certification, FCC, obsolescence, etc.), we are considering vetting one (max of two) USB dongles that work reliably (700 series). We are researching. For those on the fence, my algorithm for the decision would have been: Do I use or plan to use Polyglot? If no, wait … again, ISY994 is NOT going away. If yes, then: do I mind losing the discount? If no, wait. If yes, buy now. For developers and geeks, with the 50% discount on top of the sale price, I really do not see any reason why you want to wait regardless. Polisy is what you have been waiting for. With kind regards, Michel Thanks @Michel Kohanim. Does the DB9 jack mean I'll still need some form of a 2413S to communicate with Insteon devices? The 2413 has been the weak link in my configuration. Gives my ISY994 Pro a bad name every time it fails. Of course it picks the worst time to fail. With two residents and two ISYs I've had to start making sure I have at least one spare 2413 at each location. Pretty clean power at both places so not sure why these things fail every couple of years. Insteon 2413S Serial Modem Interface

Michel Kohanim Posted July 11, 2019 Posted July 11, 2019 @Techman, The interface is the same interface as the one for Polyglot (https://polyglot.universal-devices.com). We do plan to have a migration tool once we are ready to move ISY to Polisy. This said, it's not trivial since ISY994 is Big Endian and Polisy is Little Endian. With kind regards, Michel
