After installing Tesla Powerwalls I see a lot of either miscommunication or errors oninsteon thru eisy. I ran the status event viewer to see what would say using level3. 
 

I occasionally see something called err-1 which I don’t know what that is. I have attached a few pictures and maybe someone can tell me what this means.

I generally believe that the Tesla powerwalls are the cause of all my issues and are generating some level of noise on the line that’s causing interference and I’m trying to track it down and work with the installers with so far very good results.  If anyone has any insight on the pictures below, please let me know.

You'll want to validate this suggestion with your electrician, but adding an XPNR near where the PW3 attaches to your panel could help. It's rated for 120-240V and isn't directly in the path of the load. Even though they're for X10, I used them successfully to kill transformer noise at my last house.

It's not expensive to try relative to the other investments in home tech you've made. If it works as a test, it can going in its ow panel mounted work box with a couple of leads

But those are rated for 20amps and the house panel is much higher

The XPF has a 20 amp rating. The XPNR does not and I'm suggesting you try only the XPNR. As stated above.... unlike the XPF, the XPNR does not carry the load directly, it connects and filters between hot and neutral for the offending source. Look at the diagram for the product in the link I sent above

I definitely did that but not sure you can put that on the main incoming power from the Tesla powerwall safely.  Are you saying that it would be safe to do no matter what the amp/power feed coming from the powerwalls?  Basically the offending source would be Tesla powerwall 3 and I would bridge across that.
