Hello everybody 🙂

I am not a dev-guy myself as you will rapidly notice… I have a Homey Pro 2023 and I need a 2nd instance of ISG App (Ismartgate) in order to manage my 2 ISG devices in flows.

Here is what I did :

1. I followed CLI install protocol : I downloaded Node.js v.22.x (higher than my Homey’s v.18.x) and installed it on my computer.
2. I downloaded the App Zip file posted here [iSmartGate app with more than one device - #2 by Peter\_Kawa](https://community.homey.app/t/ismartgate-app-with-more-than-one-device/95955/2) (thank you), unzipped it in my Downloads directory
3. Setup Nodejs in Terminal (cmd prompt) : npm install -g homey and logged in with success through the webpage that had opened
4. I navigated in Cmd prompt to my Downloads rep :  
cd /Users/DF/Downloads/homey-ismartgate-main  
and chose when prompted my Homey device as Active Homey
5. I changed (and saved the file 🙂 ) the App Name on lines 1 & 11 for  
“id”: “com.gogogate.ismartgateGREG”,  
“en”: “ismartgateGREG”
6. Still in Cmd I ran : npm install and addressed 1 moderate severity vulnerability (out of 12 packages) using npm audit fix. I ran again npm install and 0 vuln. where found.
7. I also tried to run : homey app install --remote… to no avail ☹

Did I miss something ?  
here are screenshots to better understand

Thank you for your help !  
GREG
