@teharris1 is there any intention pyinsteon to support the ‘insteon wireless thermostat 2441ZTH’ in the near future?
or its operating flags in the ALDB?
pyinsteon finds it and insert it to the ALDB but cant get it working.
my guess that the 2441TH (wired) is working properly?
thanks!
Insteon thermostats are difficult and the battery operated one is even tougher. There are very specific ALDB requirements for the thermostat. Have you tried to set the default links? Keep in mind for a wireless device you need to wake it up before it will talk to the modem.
I have both a 2441TH and a 2441ZTH and they both work for me with the HA integration
@teharris1 Thanks for the quick reply.
I have the wireless thermostat connected to external power source so its always on.
what do you mean by set the default links? are you refer to the operating flags?
btw, my thermostat looks like this in the ‘insteon_devices.json’:
{
"address": "394144",
"cat": 5,
"subcat": 10,
"firmware": 0,
"engine_version": 2,
"aldb_status": 4,
"aldb": {
"8191": {
"memory": 8191,
"in_use": true,
"controller": true,
"high_water_mark": true,
"bit5": false,
"bit4": false,
"group": 0,
"target": "000000",
"data1": 0,
"data2": 0,
"data3": 0
}
},
"operating_flags": {},
"properties": {
"program_lock_on": false,
"key_beep_on": false,
"button_lock_on": false,
"celsius": true,
"time_24_hour_format": true,
"led_on": false,
"temp_offset": 0,
"humidity_offset": 0,
"backlight": 0,
"change_delay": 1000
}
my only change here was to change the celsius from ‘false’ to ‘true’.
Thanks!
Never Mind, for some reason, the router started assigning dynamic IP. Not HA issue
as from version 2021.5.1 my Insteon stopped working !!! , I changed nothing in the configuration.
Alexa skill is working. insteone iOS app still working

@teharris1 hello! i was wondering if you can help me how to change the back light level of a KPL?
Thanks!
@OferPRTZ In HA, navigate to: Developer tools and click on the Services tab. From the service drop down select insteon.add_default_links. In the Service Data field enter the entity_id in the following format:
entity_id: climate.a1b2c3
@Alfonsolsl This can be done from the OS level by running the command insteon_tools. There is not a lot of documentation around this but try typing help for a list of commands or help <command> for command specific help. In general you are going to do the following:
insteon_tools
connect <connection info>
load_devices <path to insteon_devices.yaml file> 0 0
manage_config
The manage_config command brings you to the menu where you can set operating flags and properties. Use the following:
print_config <device address>
set_config_value <device address> <property name> <property value>
write_config <device address>
In your case it would look like this:
print_config 1a2b3c
set_config_value 1a2b3c led_dimming 10
write_config 1a2b3c
thanks!! i can see you have something in the oven related to this… good luck!
just testing 2021.7.0b0 and insteOn not working anymore… I was getting an error, that modem did not respond to ID request. I removed the integration and trying to install it, I get “Failed to connect” …
Did you try restarting your hub?
not with 0b0. but I tried upgrade again with 0b3 and the same problem. tried restarting hub. remove integration and re-add after restart … and many other combinations … always fail to connect.
anybody has hub v2 running with 2021.7.xx ?
update:
all previous tries are on raspberry pi 3b+
I tried 0b4 on virtual machine (oracle) and still no luck… error: failed to connect to modem when I try to add the insteon integration
Updated to 2021.7.0 just now and have same issue as above – cannot connect to v2 hub.
It looks like the issue is in the pyinsteon library, so I opened an issue for it:
Hooping to find a solution here. Was driving me crazy for a few days trying to figure out why me Insteon integration was not working.
by the looks of it the fix might be coming in 2021.7.3
Got merged yesterday.
Sorry about that one guys and thanks to the multiple people who identified the code issue and even submitted PRs to help. Appreciate that.
FYI, the actual fix did not get merged into the dev branch until today. Not sure when it will hit production but looks like it will be in 2021.7.3.
2021.7.3 is out and the fix is working. thanks @teharris1 and all for the integration, our homes are smarter because of you
