I am finally getting around to moving off my ISY994 to my EISY that has been sitting on my desk since May of 25. i was amble to get all of the programs, schedules, devices, Alexa integration moved. I only have 3 Z-Wave devices so I will reset all of that manually. I have a 2413S PLM with what appears to be a date code of 4716. The PLM powers up and has a solid green light and will beep on button press so it seems alive. It was working just fine before I touched it but now seems unresponsive. It doesn't show up in PLM status on my old ISY or new EISY. I have tried using the USB/Serial cable that ordered with the EISY but nothing seems to be working. What is the best way to attach to it from a mac or PC to double check before giving up on it. I have ordered a new USB PLM but am really not liking my house being "DEAD".

If you want to use the2413S serial PLM on an EISY you need the UDI USB to serial cable they sell. The EISY does not do serial communications to the PLM.

If you try a USB to Serial port adapter. It will not work. The serial signals are not correct for a standard adapter.

A couple of things

• The date code is 2016, I think that was in the bad capacitor days, and having said that a long time ago in PLM years

• My experience with some older Insteon devices is that they will work untouched but then lose it when trying to reconfigure them

• Another thing is when I first set up my eisy, the eisy needed to be restarted a time or 2 before showing PLM connected. That's important because the PLM connected only comes on eisy restart, not unplug replug. You can try that
