    Another M1XEP communication problem

    According to ElkRP my program last talked with the M1XEP 2/13/2023. Since that time I have made no changes in the software itself or the M1EXP. If I run the diagnostic tool for the M1EXP it immediately shows up but when I hit the find button in ElkRP it cannot locate the M1EXP.. I am running...

    Links question in Insteon products

    I’m migrating away from Home Control Assistant and moving over to Home Assistant. I have already brought in all the Insteon devices but have yet to create any scenes or integrations within HA. Is there an easy way to factory reset my 60+ Insteon devices and start fresh in HA? The reason I ask is...

    No communication between ElkRP and M1XEP

    Success!   I'll share with you what happened so you may help others that might have the same or similar issues.   I re-ran the M1XEP utility and a error message told me that the M1XEP was on a different subnet than my Ethernet adapter. So I went to the M1XEP powered it down, installed the...

    No communication between ElkRP and M1XEP

      Thanks for the suggestions regarding the stand alone firmware upgrade program. Unfortunately for me the program reports that my M1XEP firmware is to old for the utility to update.   Can anyone tell me what the procedure is to send the M1XEP back to Elk to have them do the update? Looks to me...

    No communication between ElkRP and M1XEP

    I have power cycled the M1XEP and it did not help   I have tried to use the 2101 port and it did not help   Using a online open port checker shouldn't I see an open port at my IPv4 address? 2601 is showing as a closed port

    No communication between ElkRP and M1XEP

    I'm at a point where I need some advice.    I have a old XP desktop where my M1XEP was originally set up and at the time communicated well with ElkRP software.

    Need Insteon control for 600 watt floodlight

    I have a bank of six 100 watt outdoor floods that I need to control via a single Insteon switch. I do not require dimming, just a simple on/off. I am aware that the max. wattage for Insteon switches and relays is 480 watts and I wish to do this as simple as possible. The solution that I came up...

    Need assistance w/ELK M1 rules

    That's an alternative however when the dogs gets one of us out of bed in the middle of the night pressing one button is about all I can expect when the groggy mind is still back in a warm bed. Besides we like to go out with the dogs since we have a lot of wild animals around and remembering to...

    Need assistance w/ELK M1 rules

    OK I was making this much harder than it actually was..... the reason I couldn't get your rule to work was because I did not originally make those 3 zones able to be bypassed. duh! I'll come up to speed sooner or later. Thanks Cocoonut!
