I just installed a trial of the Elk PG3 Node server and ended up with 399 Nodes. Investigating in ElkRP I see that I had 239 lighting devices defined from the old X10 days that I forgot were there. Instead of deleting them one by one on the Nodes tab of the Node Server I was thinking of unchecking "show" for each light in Elk RP and then uninstalling and re-installing the Node Server. Will this work to prevent them from being added? Can I install a second time under the free trial since I did not consume the 30 days?

I don't know why this topic submitted twice or why it is asking me which answer was most helpful when it is a new topic that nobody has relied to. Gremlins?

Actually these entries look like they were imported from the ISY994. Don't know when or why I would have done that... maybe to use Insteon lights in Elk rules? Still I don't need them in the Node Server so need to delete them one way or another.

How to handle lighting is still under discussion between @Michel Kohanim and myself. I didn't realize if you imported all from ISY that it would then make them show up. I guess I need to add a configuration option in what lights to import. If you delete on the nodes tab they will come back on restart. So not much you can do besides delete them all from the ELK, setting the show option may work but I'm not sure. I'd need to test that when I have time later this week.

So if I delete them from Elk to keep them from coming back do I also need to delete them from the Nodes tab to actually get rid of them? Or do I uninstall and reinstall the Node server after they are cleared out of the Elk?

Either way will work.

OK, down from 399 nodes to 176. Much more manageable, thanks!
