Release 3.3.4 (RC1) Is Now Available

Hi Andy,

 

Thank you. Doesn't the screen scroll up/down? MAC has been nothing but a nightmare lately.

 

johncrab,

 

Thanks so very much for the update!

 

 

With kind regards,

Michel

 

It has been this way for some time. I remember posting about it previously somewhere. It's hard to do a screen grab while doing a drag and drop since you've got the button held down while dragging. Maybe there's a key sequence that will work. I'll post later if I can get it.

 

Edit: AGAIN, fooled by the box that is drawn by dragging and dropping. I am hovering over the scene/folder to drop in to with the box instead of the arrow. You really should do something about that. Sorry for the alarm!

I upgraded to 3.3.4 RC1 and my IOlincs started getting changed to momentary A from latching. It started (that I noticed) with the addition of a new 2 week old IOLinc, which showed latching but behaved in a momentary fashion. It wasn't until I queried the options that momentary A showed up. I changed it to latching and all was fine after.

 

But then one of my other older IOLinc's began behaving as though it was configured momentary ON. It had been operating in latching mode for about 2 years until now. It also showed latching until I did a query and it changed to momentary A. I changed it no problem and decided to check all my other IO Lincs and sure enough the same thing happened - showed latching, queried, showed momentary A, changed it, all seems to be fine now.

 

A bug? A known issue? What's the risk this will happen again?

 

Have attached the relevant section of my event viewer log output set to level 3. Lots of new xml-type stuff I've not seen in event viewer before... (ignore the variables being set along the way - they stream in from some temp sensors via an Autelis RS232-to-ISY converter but it's too hard to go through what comes out as a single line txt file in Notepad to find and delete them out)

I don't remember other reports like that. However, 3.2.6 was not processing the Set Options correctly for I2CS I/O Lincs. The 3.3.4 release (or maybe 3.3.3) corrected that problem. It is possible that the ISY had one of the Momentary mode indicators stored from 3.2.6 that was not reflective of the actual settings. I checked my I2CS I/O Linc which indicates Latching Mode and is operating in Latching Mode but that may be from my testing of the fix when it became available.

I checked all nine of my IO Lincs this morning (all used in latching mode) and one of them changed to momentary after I queried it. I don't know whether or not it was behaving in latching or momentary mode before - I just thought I would query it. It's an older one (not i2CS). I'll keep checking periodically.

Hi Travis,

 

I am so very sorry to hear. We did have one other report of this issue which, apparently, had to do with some device/program interactions. Still unsure as to the exact reason but it's now fixed.

 

Questions:

1. Do you have any devices to which you cannot communicate (i.e. red ! marks next to them)?

2. If you look at your logs, do you see a lot of X10 activity (if any) right prior to the hang?

3. Is your router Linksys Exxx series? If so, are you certain that you have the latest firmware on it?

4. If you have DirecTV, has anything changed on your setup?

 

With kind regards,

Michel

Hi Michel,

 

I will answer below in blue

 

1. Do you have any devices to which you cannot communicate (i.e. red ! marks next to them)?

No, everything looks good. I do have some scenes that fail diagnostic test, but they appear to work. I have added a few programs lately, trying to migrate everything to ISY from HomeSeer.

 

2. If you look at your logs, do you see a lot of X10 activity (if any) right prior to the hang?

Not that I can see. I don't have any X10 in my home.

 

3. Is your router Linksys Exxx series? If so, are you certain that you have the latest firmware on it?

Nope, Netgear R6300. To be perfectly clear, I do have a Linksys E3000 running purely as an AP (DHCP turned off, running only with LAN port enabled), with DD-WRT Firmware. The Linksys stock firmware crashes too much for me.

 

4. If you have DirecTV, has anything changed on your setup?

Nothing has changed. Only the occasional reboot of the HR34 IRD.

Hi Travis,

 

Bad answers: not what I was hoping to hear!!! :)

 

At the moment, what I recommend is this:

1. Clear your Error Log so that we can start fresh

2. Reboot your Linksys Router (not the NetGear one) even though it does not have Linksys firmware

3. Let's wait for it to happen again

4. Send me the Error Log directly (support@universal-devices.com)

 

With kind regards,

Michel

I just ran an Event trace while doing a Set Options | Query on an older non-I2CS I/O Linc. Nothing was written back to the I/O Linc. Are any commands issued to the I/O Linc through the ISY plugin?

if you mean my homeseer plug-in, I don't do anything to my iolincs with HS. They are used exclusively with ISY. Can you glean anything from the event log I attached earlier (post 53) as to whether or not the options I set were reported as successful?

I upgraded to 3.3.4 last weekend. I thought I was seeing some strange intermittent behavior of devices coming on. I found it is not intermittent. I have programs that change the LED backlight on KPLs in bedrooms.

 

Anytime the program ran to adust the backlights, the load comes on. Brighten or dim, doesn't matter. It also occurs if I try to manually adjust the backlights via the admin console. Interestingly, the backlights do not change anymore. Just the load comes on.

 

KPL Dimmer v.36

KPL Relay v.36

KPL Relay v.98 all exhibit this behavior.

 

A KPL Dimmer v.2D does NOT turn the load on, but the backlights do not adjust.

Pick one of the KPLs (not the 2D version as that and 2A firmware have issues), right click and select Diagnostics | Query Insteon Engine. Try the Backlight adjustment.

 

That fixed it. At least for a single test. Care to educate me on that?

 

Thanks!!

The 3.3.x images depend on the Insteon Engine information being correct because of all the new I2CS support. The Insteon Engine information might not be correct coming from older firmware. Did not bother older firmware without all the new I2CS logic the ISY images now contain.

I installed 3.3.4 because I wanted to add an LED Insteon bulb and have nothing but problems since then. I had a very stable system before with no issues. Now, I get repeated warnings that various devices are not communicating properly; the onset of these coincides exactly with the upgrade to 3.3.4. In addition, the very reason I upgraded was to add the bulb and it refuses to recognize it!

 

Back to the drawing board, guys! I would greatly appreciate being able to get back to my old stable state.

After upgrading from 3.3.2 to 3.3.4 any and all scene tests fail. Everything else works fine. When I downgrade to 3.3.2 they work. Very repeatable when I upgrade and then downgrade. I have cleared the cache and under "about" it shows the correct version after each firmware change. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I have looked for other posts, but none similar, so it must be something I am overlooking.

I've upgraded to 3.3.4 without any major issues, except that I've occasionally had trouble adding devices to the ISY. One I've been having trouble with is a dual band on/off KPL (2487S). I can add the device successfully, except that is is always added as an "unsupported device:2.44" I can control the KPL, but none of the other 4 buttons are added to the device list. I'd appreciate any help, I've attached a portion of the event viewer log in case it's helpful:
