I'm trying to restore my PLM and I get the followig error:

 

Could not open config file to read

[conf/FF0101.rec]

 

This happens on two new 2413S PLM's.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

Gerry

Hi Gerry,

 

Please restore your ISY with the last good backup you have and then retry.

 

With kind regards,

Michel

Thanks Michel,

 

I went back two ISY backups and a restore and a reboot. I then tried a PLM restore and I got the same error.

 

Gerry

Hi Gerry,

 

Can you go to the overview table and let me know if you have a device with address: FF 01 01 ?

 

 

With kind regards,

Michel

Hi Michel,

 

I can't find an "overview table". I did check the latest topology and I do not have a device with the address FF.01.01.

 

Some background:

I'm converting an all X10 system with a JDS TimeCommander Plus and approximately 175 devices. I'm running the ISY in parallel with the JDS in development mode (still trying to learn the ISY). I have the X10 module, six Insteon devices and six X10 devices installed on the ISY for testing and learning.

 

If I disable the X10 devices on the ISY and do a PLM restore I do not get the error. The restore is very short, I don't see any writing to the Insteon devices. (I don't know if that is correct)

 

I need the capability for the Insteon and X10 devices to coexist on the ISY for the conversion.

 

Gerry

Hi Gerry,

 

Please disable all your X10 devices, do a Restore PLM and then enable them again. Please let me know if this works.

 

With kind regards,

Michel

Hi Michel,

 

I followed your instructions and enabled each X10 device one at a time. Each failed with a different address FF.xx.xx except one which does not fail. Strange, don't know what's different about this one X10 device.

 

I did notice that the address scheme in the topology file is different than the error message. The error message format is FF0101. Topology file is FF.001.001.1, if these formats are indeed the same, then I do have a X10 device FF 01 01 and a misspeak in the prior post.

 

Thank you for the assistance.

Gerry

Hello Gerry,

 

My pleasure ... do you have any other devices that start with FF and are not X10/A10 devices?

 

With kind regards,

Michel

Hi Michel,

 

No, only the A10/X10 device addr begin with FF. The Insteon begin with 14 or 15.

 

Gerry

Hi Gerry,

 

Thank you. Is your system now restored?

 

I am not sure what coudl be causing these errors nor can it be reproduced here. This concerns me!

 

With kind regards,

Michel

Hi Michel,

 

Yes my ISY is restored to V2.8.16. Please see my PM.

 

Thanks,

Gerry
