In the calculator, what assumptions are used for number of links per scene? I have quite a bit of scenes with only 3 or 4 devices, but I noticed that each time a scene is added it adds 10 to the link table. Is that the assumption?

Michel, are you in Encino (where the contact address for UD is)? If so, next time I get out to Riverside, if I can get the OK from the customer, I will offer you a first class tour of one of the facilities that I programmed and commissioned (I can't mention the name of the customer here but it could be one of the hubs of one of the three or four shipping companies you use). You are an expert in home automation and I will show you all about industrial automation.

I will try that after work! Thank you sir. Also ordered a pair of Accesspoints today. I do have some intermittant issues I want to see if I can take care of. Other than those particular issues, it is working great. Got all my groups programmed, got some timers in for the outside lights to come on 20 minutes before sunset, to dim down at midnight, come on 30 minutes before sunrise and turn off at sunrise. I will be eventually adding motion detectors to brighten the outside lights for a few minutes when activated. Also, all lights on/off works well, including LED follow. As a quick comment, I am an industrial automation engineer, I program Allen-Bradley and Modicon PLC controllers and am getting into Siemens controllers as well. After spending all day with those programs, it is a treat to come home and play with the ISY-26! -- Bill

A couple of years ago I needed to call an ambulance for my wife and the paramedics had difficulty locating my home (even with well-lit address, etc). What I am trying to do is to write a program to flash the outside lights to make my home more visible. I have tried the following program: If Status 'KPL_FOYER H' is On And Control 'KPL_FOYER H' is not switched Off Then Repeat 10 times Run program '911 FLASH ON' Wait 1 second Run program '911 FLASH OFF' Wait 1 second Else Stop program '911 FLASH' It will run 10 times (I picked 10 times just to test it). It does what it says it will do -- flash 10 times and stop. I would like to make it flash until I turn it off (the 999 maximum would be OK) but I would also like a way to stop it by turning off the 'KPL_FOYER H' button. I made a separate program that stops this program if the button is turned off but this doesn't work (probably because the ISY continues to loop the program. And, since the program seems to loop without checking the "if" rung then it won't stop itself. I have also tried calling the program from itself to make it repeat (instead of using "Repeat xx times"), thinking that that would make it repeat until the program was false... it doesn't even repeat that way. I also copied the program to another program and used the end of one program to call the other and vice versa and it wouldn't stop flashing! I had to manually stop it from the ISY. Any ideas?
