If your PLM is working well so far, I wouldn't replace it. There were too many with weak power supplies inside in between times. However if your link count is high and you plan to expand you may want to get a more modern USB type PLM. You may want to expand more devices that are not Insteon and then the link capabilty would be sufficient to keep. Getting a new USB type may be a good backup plan also. It sounds like you have a very quiet grid supply but with moving or electrical noisy neighbours moving close to you, you may want to accelerate your backup plans.

STATE is a type of variable found under the Tab STATE at the top of the IoX screen. STATE variables can trigger programs to run while INTEGER variables do not. Most users signify the usage of STATE variables by putting a lowercase "s" at the beginning of the name to avoid confusion in programs later. eg: $sVariableName

Which Great lake were you in?

After my polls SSD crashed and my polisy was rebuilt from the ground up, the F vs C nomenclature still remains on the remote sensors only. The master stat reading shows as C. All values are fine, just the unit scales are incorrect on the Remote sensors in IoX.

Another method. This is based on no direct (Insteon) connection between MS and light control switch. If there is there is more complex way of accomplishing this by disabling the ISY Insteon scene. If switcLinc is switched FAST OFF AND switchLinc is NOT switched FAST ON Then Variable $sDisable.MS = 1 Wait 5 minutes <---- if desired to auto cancel disable. If not, make it hours long Variable $sDisable.MS = 0 Else Variable $sDisable.MS = 0 If MS is switch On AND $sDisable.MS = 0 Then turn on your lights etc. Else -----

Website reports server down since about 3:00 PM today and multiple resolutions promised but still down at 19:25 Not your NS or ISY!! https://status.ecobee.com/#

I recently changed my router ISP / factory set IP address lease time, from 3 days down to 12 hours. Perhaps that resolved mine earlier, on it's own.

I understand but it was between Alexa and ISY Portal which I had no control over.

I had routers that ran too warm. Vertical mounting resolved all those heat problems. They had vent holes though. Polisy does not. Never seen an eISY.

Thanks. Nothing was offline. ISY Portal showed my ISY as offline but any locale ISY operations, including NR worked 100%. Alexa app showed ISY Skill accounts connected but every device was shown disconnected. It all fixed itself later without any further action from me. Amazon just didn't like us?

Back up again also, polisy Pro.

My SSD on both polISYs crashed a few eeks ago. My main polisy Pro was imaged with an mSATA to USB adapter and came back up fully with a few hours of work, no problem. However my back-up polisy would never come back up despite re-imaging successfully about 6 times UD support predicted it was the SSD and suggested to buy a new one, which was right on the money and the backup polisy is working fine again, Michel made a comment to me that rings in my brain that. cheaper SSD tend to not last long. By cheaper I believe he meant smaller SSD drives as they have a lot less memory area to swap memory into and basically wear out too soon. I bought a 64GB SSD to replace the factory unit but thinking again I would get a much larger SSD because of the previous paragraph I posted. The suggested imager program would not work with the larger drive and I had to download another free imager that worked fine.

@bmercier My polISY cannot be found by Alexa. I have disabled and renabled the accounts successfully as well as using "discover" in Alexa and it find no new devices. However all devices are shown with flags as disconnected now.

The receptacle wasn't a split receptacle like on your kitchen counter or other cooking surface, was it? Bad signal noise creators are small PSU like USB chargers, and Garage door openers have been found to be very bad sometimes. Start un plugging things, especially cheap and old things.

There is some frequency, signal strength and bandwidth adjustments that need to be made on the tags, especially at subzero temperatures. I only interrogate my tags every 30 minutes for general temperature and humidity probing. Also, I do not use the NR, I use a custom written kumoapp to push the readings into polISY State variables.
