    2 Thermostats stopped working over the weekend

    Came in Monday morning and both Insteon thermostats at our warehouse were blank and inoperable. One is a wired heat pump model and the other a wired conventional model. They control 2 different units (or course). They are in different rooms and on different circuits. We also have a hub and that seems to be working. Other Insteon products in the warehouse still work, like a plug-in controller and leak detector.

    I have tried power cycling both thermostats but it didn't do anything.

    It would be one heck of a coincidence if they both chose to die on the same weekend after about 18 months of use so I have to believe there is a common cause. I am wondering if there might have been a software update over the weekend that has introduced a problem into thermostats? Does anyone know if thermostats were recently updated?

    Has anyone else experienced a problem recently with thermostats just dying?

    Or does anyone have any other ideas what it might be?

    Probably not any software updates.
    They can't be updated remotely. You need the firmware file and a programmer. Connected to the programming pads on the PC Board.

    Did you check verify the heating gear had power?

      Yes, both pieces of equipment have power. After some searching we reset both thermostats and the conventional one attached to a warehouse heater seems fine. But the heat pump attached to our office heat/cool unit is still inoperable. Nothing shows on the screen.
