TJF1960 Posted March 20, 2022 Posted March 20, 2022 (edited) Moving from PG2 to PG3 was pretty simple, all went well for me. If you decide to make the move but you are in a hurry, stop and do it another day, when you are in a hurry and pressed for time is when you will experience troubles. Backup PG2, PG3 and IoP. Take a screen shot of the config page in PG2 for Envisalink for use when updating the config page in PG3. Take a screenshot of the device tree in IoP, specifically Envisalink so that you can rename all the zones back to what you had named them previously. I decided to delete Envisalink from PG2 and install on PG3 to the same slot. After updating the new config in PG3 and letting it do its thing for a few minutes I opened the admin console, the new PG3 Envisalink had populated the device tree as expected. Open programs I only found 1 that needed attention, the program that monitors the panel battery. I expected this based on @Goose66 explanation in the first post. Even though only 1 program needed attention I noticed none of the programs were running true when they should have been. Opened a couple up, selected the first If line and hit update then save. That did the trick. I did a few more then decided to try a ISY reboot. This did the trick for the rest of the programs. All in all this was a much smoother transition that I was prepared for. All is working great! Thank you to @Goose66!! I hope the rest of you have the same or better results! Tim Edited March 20, 2022 by TJF1960 2
GTench Posted May 8, 2022 Posted May 8, 2022 Thanks for posting this. My experience was very similar but I had to do the update and save on each program that referenced one of the alarm zones. I use the Envisalink motion zones mostly to trigger lights. I found PG2 to be surprising quick in this regard. PG3 seems to be even quicker. I'm very happy overall. Gary 1
