Firmware 2.7.15 (Code Freeze) is Now Available


Michel Kohanim

Recommended Posts

Hello all,

 

 

Thank you for your support in helping us go through the alpha and beta stages of 2.7.8 and above. With the release of 2.7.15, we feel that we have an extremely stable system and we are entering a code freeze cycle of 10 days during which time no changes are made to the system unless absolutely critical. If no critical bugs are found, this release shall be our official release.

 

As such, we would appreciate your help on ensuring that your system behaves as it should, it's stable, and you are happy with it! Please review the list of fixed bug and enhancements here:

viewtopic.php?p=6475

 

Instructions

 

1. Please backup your ISY (File | Backup ISY)

 

2. Please download the firmware for your platform - please do not unzip

a. ISY 26 - http://www.universal-devices.com/update ... nsteon.zip

b. ISY 99 - http://www.universal-devices.com/update ... nsteon.zip

 

3. It is very important that you use your current ISY's Admin Console to perform the upgrade by going to your http://your.isy.ip.address/admin. For MAC users, if upgrade fails, please try https://your.isy.ip.address/admin

 

4. Login to the Admin Console and choose Help | Manually Upgrade [the name of your system]

 

5. Choose the file saved in step 2

 

6. After the upgrade, ISY reboots. Please do ensure to clear your Java Cache:

http://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/ ... Java_Cache

 

7. IMPORTANT Once upgrade is completed and ISY reboots, use any of the following methods to access your ISY's Admin Console:

a. http://isy/admin - applet (Windows only)

b. http://isy/admin.jnlp - Java application (Windows only)

c. http://your.isy.ip.address/admin - applet

d. http://your.isy.ip.address/admin.jnlp - Java application

e. http://www.universal-devices.com/99i/2.7.15 - applet

f. http://www.universal-devices.com/99i/2.7.15/admin.jnlp - Java application

 

8. IMPORTANT If you have already installed a self signed certificate and your current firmware is 2.7.10 and below, you must reinstall a new one:

http://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/ ... rtificates

 

9. General instructions (especially for adding V2 thermostats) for the new features in 2.7.7+ can be found here: viewtopic.php?p=27368

 

 

Upgrading from 2.7.8 through 2.7.10

 

Upon reboot, ISY tries to migrate all configuration files to release 2.7.15 levels. This said, however, in the case of KeypadLincs, the following

settings shall be lost (ISY will be out of synch with your devices) for those KPLs that were setup/configured in 2.7.8 or 2.7.9:

a. Button toggle mode

b. Button backlight

c. Button groupings (in scenes or otherwise)

d. Button mutual exclusivity

 

As such, if you have setup any KPLs in 2.7.8 or 2.7.9, it's best to remove them from ISY, do a factory reset on them, add them back and reconfigure them.

Alternatively - and you have not made massive changes using 2.7.8/9, you can restore your 2.7.7 backup (File | Restore ISY) and let ISY migrate everything.

 

Thanks so very much for your help and support.

 

With kind regards,

Michel

I just downloaded the update and it failed at 44% of the install.

I am sorry I didn't note the exact file name it said it could not read.

I retried it and the second attempt went to 100% and after clearing the Java Cache and rebooting everything looks fine.

 

It may have been AVG as I can't find any way to turn it off easily. I did turn off Zone Alarm.

Hi Michel,

 

A little late, but ..

 

Copy Scene attributes doesn't seem to work right for thermostats (V2); Set-points get swapped, and the mode doesn't change.

Apply changes to all devices doesn't seem to do anything when changing thermostat, and gives a Request Failed error when changing another device in the same scene.

 

This is all in the Admin Console, I haven't actually tested the links yet.

 

Thanks,

 

Nick

I've tried on both my PC and Mac and it won't get past 6% I'll get:

 

"Socket Open Failed java.io.IOException: An Established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine"

 

and then "Upgrade Failed: Invalid Length"

Hi Nick,

 

We are going to look into it and see if it's a trivial UI issue and, if so, it shall be fixed. Otherwise we will have to leave it for the next cycle.

 

someguy, that was quite funny!

 

apostolakis, hopefully as we are currently working on it!

 

With kind regards,

Michel

 

but seriously, what does "code freeze" mean?

Typically, it means that the source code is locked and developers are not allowed to make unapproved changes to it. This is used to prevent minor changes going in and generating new bugs right before a release.

 

Only fixes to critical bugs would normally be allowed during this time. Those would have to be well understood so that risk to other parts of the code are known.

 

Basically, now that it's been tested for a couple of weeks, don't break it right before release :)

updated from 2.7.14 to .15, update went smoothly however my previous issue remains

 

EZRaing Irrigation Unable to update zone 1 time out

 

Using an EZ Raing Irrigation Controller. I can successfully update the timeouts for all of the zones except for zone 1. When I click set options for zone 1 it reads the timeout of 15 mins by doing a query, I then change the time to 30 mins and click "ok". Notably the ISY does not display the progress bar when I click "ok" setting zone 1 but it does for setting of the other zones. Re checking the "Set Options" reveals zone 1 timeout is still set for 15 mins.

 

Thanks again to the team for the updates you keep working !

I can confirm junkycosmos' findings. Only zone 1 timeout reverts back to its previous time, in my case 10 minutes because I had used the SHN utility to set the timeouts a while back. Zones 2-8 will retain the new time out settings.

I however do not get the progress bar when changing the time out for any zone, but the timeout window stays open for about 1-2 seconds longer for zones 2-8 than it does for zone 1 after changing the timeout and pressing ok.
