Since I am on FIOS and my IP address changes, was wondering if we could create a script to run and email if my IP address changes? Thanks

Rand gave a quick answer to this. I went back and reread your original post, and here's some additional info based on what I think you want to do: - You have some kitchen lights and a KPL-A button. - You want KPL-A to turn them all on when it's turned on. (And presumably turn them all off when it is turned off.) - You want KPL-A to light up when any of the kitchen lights are turned on individually. And turn off when the last one is turned off individually, if individually controlled. Right? Then here's what might work for you: 1) Put all your lights in an "all kitchen light" scene, as responders. 2) Put KPL-A in that same scene, as a controller KPL-A will now turn the "all lights" scene on and off, and the KPL-A light will go on/off accordingly. You probably already have this part done. So now you need to address the other desire, to control the KPL-A light for the other conditions. Continue... 3) Put KPL-A in a scene by itself as a responder (in addition to the scene it's already in above as a controller). You can now control the KPL-A light independently of the "all lights" scene by turning this scene on/off. If you want KPL-A to be on whenever any of the lights is on, and off when they are all off, then this program is one way to do it: If Status 'kitchen light 1' is not Off Or Status 'kitchen light 2' is not Off Or Status 'kitchen light 3' is not Off Then Set Scene '[KPL A]' On Else Set Scene '[KPL A]' Off By using Status in the program, it monitors lights no matter how they're turned on/off. By using "not Off" then the lights don't have to go all the way on (100%) to trigger the KPL-A light. And, of course, the "all lights" scene still works as expected. One nice side benefit is that KPL-A can always be used to turn all the lights off even if only one of them has been turned on. I hope this helps and makes things more clear. It's very similar to functionality I have running in my own setup. --Mark Mark, Thank you very much this worked perfect. The only question is why the else statement?

The KPL button must be part of a scene for the ISY to control it. If you want to control the button light independently of any other device, then put it in an ISY scene by itself. If it's part of other scenes, then it should behave as you expect in those scenes as well, as either a responder or controller. --Mark Mark, Thanks for taking the time to respond. What is the connection between having the KPL is a scene by itself and the scene that turns the lights on and off?
-
No this is a KPL 6. A is not the load on the KPL, I call that On(Top)Off(Bottom) A is part of the 4 buttons. So how would you control just the light, not the switching? Thanks
-
I have it set up in my house that any KPL A turns on the kitchen lights. When anyone turns them on via the KPL all the KPL A are on. If someone turns on the kitchen island lights, the KPL A doesn't light up. I could go put a program that if X is on, turn on KPL A. The problem is that turns on all the kitchen lights. I was just hoping to be able to have the KPL A Light on if any of the lights are on. Seems like I can't figure out how to control just the light as any program just turns on the switch. Any ideas? Thanks

Firmware 2.7.10 ALPHA Is Now Available
AnthemAVM replied to Michel Kohanim's topic in Previous Releases
Why such the rush to get past 2.7.10? -
I would like to take a KPL switch and have it controll all the exterior lights, in fact already have that one done. The problem is that the lights go off based on certain condtions or times, but the KPL remains lighted up. How do I get the devices to turn the light off on the KPL when the last light goes out? Thanks
-
Sub, How would I then add it to the ISY so I can see the version?
-
Michael, I removed the KPL and IO LINC and re-installed. I redid the program per the Wiki page and I get the following. Can not open the garage by pressing the D button. Can close the garage when the Status Light D is on the KPL. I was playing around with the toggle vs non toggle. When in non toggle can open the garage, but need to push the D button twice to close the garage. I am wondering if I have the IO LINC set wrong for something? Any more ideas for me to check?
-
Why doesn't the version show up in the ISY? I put it into the ISY by adding a new Insteon device. Any idea?
-
Do you think 2.7.9 might be my problem?
-
Where do you find the v35. I am having problems after installing a new KPL, and wondering if it might be the problem.
-
Michael, It is only about 6 feet from a KPL, and I can see the light blinking. What I might be able to do is take an extension cord and plug it near the KPL and give it a try. To make this even more weird, when the garage is open I can close the garage with any of the KPL, but still can't open it.
-
Nothing new, and what is wierd is the status works, just not the relay.
-
I had the D button on my 4 KPL running my IO LINC to open my garage door. It was all working okay, and then it stopped working. When I hit the D button's on all the KPL the lights just flash a few times and nothing happens. I have the button's set in a non-toogle and they are the controllers of the IO LINC. I also have it set that the KPL D light is on when the garage is open, and that program is working fine. Any ideas? Thanks
-
A good glass of red wine and I just figured it out. I figured if you just reloaded your 2.7.7 backup it would roll back. I think you need to reinstall 2.7.7. and then load up your back up. Michael

I tried to down grade my ISY back to 2.7.7 from the 2.7.9. I see old items that I removed in 2.7.9, but the ISY still shows that it has 2.7.9 firmware. Any ideas?
-
I have a KPL switch that is controlling something that is shouldn't. I can see it in the linking table under diagnostics tab, but can not find it anywhere under programs or scences. Anyway to get it out without a factory reset? Thanks
-
I let the battery die and thought today was a good day to get them back working. I am using 2.7.9a. The motion sensors link fine, but they don't turn on after I put them in operation. If I hit the set button once they turn on, but I need to hit the set button to get them to go off. I have all the dip switches in a single pin location. I am thinking that I might have them set differn't then my 2.0 ones. Any ideas?
-
Michael, I am not sure I checked correctly but in the header it says v.00
-
I am noticing that after a Factory Reset on the 2450 the program I wrote to send the off command is not working. The Relay is stayin in the on position and not moving back to the off command in the display. If I querry the device it comes back with the off. Any idea what might be wrong? I am using 2.7.9A
-
Any other advantages from the 2.0?
-
I have a program that keeps the lights on from sunset to 10pm if someone tries to turn them off. Thanks
-
My wife leaves for the gym before sunrise, so I created this program to turn on the exterior lights when she opens the garage. I have noticed that between sunset and 12:01 the lights flash off. Seems that the ISY is picking up the change in the Garage Door and running the program. How do I get it to not pick up the change between sunset and 12:01am? If From 12:01:00AM To Sunrise (same day) And Status 'Outside - Front Porch Lights' is Off And Status 'Garage Door On is Closed' is On Then Set 'Outside - Front Porch Lights' On Else Wait 5 minutes Set 'Outside - Front Porch Lights' Off
