GJ Software Products Posted December 17, 2022 Posted December 17, 2022 Can the eisy be setup and configured using a PC connected to the Ethernet port just like my 994i or do you have to use udmobile/wireless? I was looking for documentation but couldn't find anything. Where is the documentation located or is it available yet? Thanks.
GJ Software Products Posted December 17, 2022 Author Posted December 17, 2022 I guess a clearer way to phrase my question is does the Admin Console work the same way on eisy as it does on a 994i with the browser interface? Browse to the IP address of the eisy and wa-lah, there it is same as a 994i?

It's been this way for a while now. 1
GJ Software Products Posted December 19, 2022 Author Posted December 19, 2022 Duhhh... I thought my icon was a hyper-link and it's actually a shortcut to admin.jnlp. It's been so long since I set that up. Sounds like I need to get an eisy and start fooling with it. I just hate getting stuck with trying to do everything on my iPhone but it sounds like the same interface as on my 994i will be available on the eisy and udmobile is an enhancement/additional feature. Am I correct? I DDNS/port forward/NAT into my 994i from the internet through my firewall and I want to keep that up & running.
Bumbershoot Posted December 19, 2022 Posted December 19, 2022 (edited) For now at least, the Admin Console and Java aren't going away. UDMobile is available for Android and iOS, iPadOS and MacOS on machines running M1 or M2 chips. I can run it on my iMac just fine. It isn't a substitute for the Java Admin Console yet. It's getting there, but I don't if it ever intended to completely replace the Admin Console. Someone at UDI will have to address that. You can securely run the Admin Console from the UD portal, if you have a portal account. Log into the portal (https://my.isy.io), click on: Select Tool | Information | ISY Information and you'll see a long URL that you can use in the ISY Launcher to connect to your ISY remotely. Safely and securely... No DDNS necessary, and no holes in your firewall. EDIT: Add the link below for more clarification. Edited December 19, 2022 by Bumbershoot 3
