Stephen Martinek Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Because of the update to v 4.8.0, I was attempting to Backup my ISY. However, I get a error when it displays Save To File and the backup file name. The error is File Not Found, as if it was attempting to read from the file. Anyone else run into this ? If so, how can it be remedied. I won't upgrade until I can create a backup. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Martinek Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Found the problem. Seems that in a recent Windows update, access to this folder was restricted. Provided access to the folder and the Backup was successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balok Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Got mine backed up and this version installed using the automatic option with no difficulty. I have no interest in navigating the apparently hazardous path from 4 to 5 - I think I'll wait until my ISY quits and I get another one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zparsons Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 So weather is gone in ISY 4.8.0 and as of now we need Polisy to get weather integration. But Polisy requires running the 5.x version of the ISY firmware and that has not yet been released. I don't want to run pre-release software as the core of my home automation, so I am left waiting on an official 5.x release. I see that 5.x went to RC1 in October of last year, but no news since. Any target date for the official release of 5.x? I want to know when I can have my weather integration back. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Udi has made a point of not giving dates and I highly doubt that will change now or ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the zwave devices tables are part of ISY firmware ISY v5. will always be considered beta. In 6.5 years, I have never heard of an ISY994 crashing it's firmware and I have run every version since late V3.x that my ISY came with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably take another run at it at some point when my family doesn't need to use light switches for a while. I tried a slightly earlier version of the 5.x release candidate previously and had so many weird issues I had to roll back to 4.x so I have been hesitant to try again.

Most of us had no (serious ) issues but I can tell you once that you have ironed out any issue that you may have, you will be very happy. Remember that this forum provides great support and of course UDI has superb customer support. Jump and many will be there to catch you, should need be.

The only thing that could be a serious issue is if your programs make extensive use of adjust scene where the scene controller is a wireless device such as a motion detector, Open/Close Sensor, Hidden door sensor, or wireless Insteon remote. Specifically: Where the Action in a program is Adjust Scene and the Controller is a battery device. This isn't always used by everyone, but it might be used to provide, for example, a different level of dimming at night. The function does work correctly when the controller is NOT a battery device, however the action will not convert when upgrading 4x -> 5x, and the program will need to be manually adjusted and then re-saved. Other than this issue, I agree 5.0.16C is rock solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just adding to Mr. Bill's comment: I have several Motion Sensors and update (adjust) the related scenes twice a day. As a result my experience with v5 is not good. My ISY is constantly in a busy state and bogged down. This slowness also interferes with other functions like voice commands - from delayed response to no response at all. It also appears that UD has no intention of fixing this bug anytime soon. So if you have a good number of motion sensors and use them as controllers in scenes and adjust these regularly I would NOT install v5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mil Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I was using 4.8.0 and attempted upgrading the firmware. Z-wave wouldn't respond so I factory reset and reinstalled 4.8.0 and restored my backup. Now Z-Wave won't connect at all and it won't connect to any devices and I can't add any new devices. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Kohanim Posted September 11, 2020 Author Share Posted September 11, 2020 @Mil, Did you factory reset the Z-Wave dongle? If so, the only way to get your Z-Wave nodes back is if and only if you have a Z-Wave backup. With kind regards, Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
