Hello. This is my first post.
I trialled HS3 for about 2 weeks on a Windows 10 laptop with the Insteon plug-in, using an Insteon Hub 2242-522, and a combination of new Insteon devices and older X10 devices.
The trial setup worked very well, except that I couldn't get the system to boot up after an outage without human intervention, which somewhat defeated the purpose of the system, e.g. when away from home for a while.
I decided to take the plunge and ordered a Zee 2 system and it has been working well for a few days, but I am getting an increasing number of crashes of the Insteon plug-in. The Plug-In Management page asks me to check the interface port settings and restart HS, but the port settings are correct. I can disabled the plug-in and run the Windows version with the same settings and it works fine.
Sometimes, I get a lot of errors in the log file, which refer to a error log file specifically for the Insteon plug-in. I have logged into the "linux Tools" but can't navigate to the directory specified. I don't have any experience with Linux but I did use Unix for a while about 25 years ago, but I am very rusty. However, just using cd and pwd commands I can't change the working directory displayed by the linux tools from /usr/local/HomeSeer
After the Insteon plug-in crashes, disabled and reanabling it has no effect, nor does remotely restarting the Zee from the web interface. Cycling the power to the Zee usually restarts it Ok, but the "up time" before the next crash seems to be only a matter of minutes. A few days ago, the Zee was running for 24-48 hours with no problems.
I have about 12 X10 devices, mainly LD11 dimmers which have been installed and working for about 11 years (previously with CM15A interface).
I have 5 Insteon LED bulbs, and 3 Insteon Micro Dimmers, as well as 3 motion sensors and 4 8-button mini remotes.
I am controlling both Insteon and X10 devices via the Insteon Hub, a the sole interface. I am not using the Zwave interface which came with the Zee - the plug-in is disabled.
Over the last few days I have been adding more events (currently numbering about 50) but not overly complex, I think.
I will try to gather logs and other information.
