I am having no luck connecting with my Vera Lite that I just purchased. I followed the instructions and upgraded the firmware to 1.5.322 when I first booted up the unit. I had solid “power”, solid “ready” and solid “internet” lights before commencing firmware update.
After the firmware update, I installed the alarm plugin in UI5 for a AD2USB unit (alarm panel integration). I have yet to test the alarm panel integration because it was unable to save any of my settings.
This is when I looked at the Vera Lite unit and noticed that I get a solid “power” light and a solid “internet” light but the “ready” light never comes on. When attempting to log into the unit, I get the “Unable to communicate with your unit” error message.
I have already tried the double tap recessed reset button with no luck.
Did the firmware update or alarm panel plugin installation cause this?
I currently do not have a zwave devices added. I only have a AD2USB connected to my Vera Lite. The “ready” light never comes on whether the AD2USB is connected or not.
Yes, I’ve tried to connect both ways. The “ready” light is never on. The “getting started” pamphlet states to contact tech support if the “ready” light does not turn on…which I already have via an email and open ticket. Still waiting of course…just thought maybe some of you guys have experienced the same and may have some insight on this issue.
I think I remember reading somewhere that the ready light may not come on… So if we assume that the unit is ok lets try and figure out if you can see the box on your network. I would guess that the unit either got a new DHCP IP address from your router. Have you checked it’s client table for your device and verified the IP address? Or have you disconnected it from your home network and plugged it directly into your laptop and set your laptop IP to 192.168.81.2 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.81.1?
aschwalb: When I check my router’s client table, the Vera Lite is assigned an IP of 192.168.1.105. However, i cannot access the unit on a browser at that address. What do you mean by verifying the IP address?
When I plug the Vera Lite directly to my laptop and set my laptop IP to 192.168.81.2 and gateway to 255.255.255.0, and attempt to access the Vera Lite at 192.168.1.1 on a browser, it does not connect either. When I do it this way, I get a solid power light and blinking internet light. No ready light as usual.
