I can see that there is a way to adjust the ramp rate in the settings page, but is there a way for me to change the ramp rate via an HA automation? OR is there a way to have a Insteon device slowly ramp up in HA and ignore the ramp rate of the device?

I figured since its an ISY integration that I am currently working with, I would ask here. The one suggestion I got was to completely bypass the ISY and connect to the PLM then use the Insteon integration/panel.

Is there any way to control the button backlight within home assistant? I'm hoping to adjust the backlight based on the time of day. I also have multiple buttons that I would like synced with their backlight. I saw this post https://community.home-assistant.io/t/support-setting-insteon-keypadlinc-and-switchlinc-led-backlight-brightness-and-maybe-arbitrary-commands/161529 which leads me to think its possible. And the new Insteon Panel that is being worked on for Home Assistant will have this option. I know that the Insteon integration and the ISY are different.

I recently installed a new ceiling fan and now all of the non dual band devices on that house circuit are having communication issues. Besides removing the fan, is there anything that I can do to solve that problem? I thought about getting some new dual band devices, but the Plug-In Lamp Dimmer Modules are out of stock.

I'm noticing the same thing and did clean the Java, still shows up.

It's mostly hearing it all the time. The tone seemed to have a more pleasant feeling.

You can also do it in the android app now too. I'm sad the ok is back. I hope they give us the option to choose this week.

I like the tone better than "ok". I wish the tone for an unknown command was more distinct and with her turning red.

I think I got everything set up. I'm super excited to try this when I get home. I was about to set up an emulator, timing is great.

So I have a IO Linc on the garage door, a 6 button KPL, and the switch that came with the garage door. What I would like is for button D on the KPL to be lit up when the door is open and off when closed. I would also like the button D to control the door. Right now I have the IO status, IO relay and the KPL Button D in a scene. The IO relay is set to Relay follows Input and Trigger Reversed. Things seem ok when I use the KPL to open the door. It does not like it when I use the real switch. Is there a way to get this to work with a program of some sort? Thanks.

How about something like "Noise"?

Awesome, thanks. Is there a way to adjust the scene so that from 3pm-6pm the lights don't come on even if there is motion? I tried adding a program that would adjust the scene, but it doesn't seem to adjust them. Yet I can manually adjust the scene. If From 3:00:00PM To 6:00:00PM (same day) Then In Scene 'Back entryway' Set 'Back Entry Light' 0% (On Level) Else In Scene 'Back entryway' Set 'Back Entry Light' 100% (On Level)

So I need to set the motion sensor options to "On Commands only" and the timeout to whatever I want. (probably 30 secs). And link the sensor with the lights in a scene. Then set up a couple programs to turn it off like the ones below? MOTION SENSOR If Status 'Motion- Back Door-Sensor' is On Then - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') and TIMER (this would leave the lights on for 30 seconds after motion was detected.) If Program 'Motion Sensor' is True Or From Last Run Time for 'Motion Sensor' For 30 seconds Then - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Else Set 'Back Entry' Off

Is it normal for a program to be slow to respond? I have a couple motion sensors near a back door. I have the program set up to turn the light on when motion is sensed. I can see the red light on the motion senor light but but the light doesn't turn on for about 2 seconds afterwards.

Does this mean every time you push the button on the RL the light is red or can you not control that? The light could be green and the lights still go out.

LeeG, That is exactly what I was looking for. I didn't even think of looking at the status when I turned the lamp off. I just assumed it wouldn't change. Thanks.

So I have a few lamplincs in my living room. I currently have them set up to turn on near sunset. But would like to be able to turn them off whenever or later when the off program runs. The lamplincs are behind the couch and I don't want to have a remote at each lamp. I like the load sensing option, but is there a way to flip the switch on the lamp off and on so that it still turn on later but make it turn off? AKA: Lamp is on. Flip switch off and on. Lamp turns off. (probably will turn back on and then program will make it turn off) Is there way to set up a program that will notice if the load is turned off and then back on?

I just got a 2420M too. Does this mean I can't program with it until the update?

So this is what I came up with and it seems to work. It should allow me to hit the off button and get into bed before the lights turn off. I'd love suggestions and changes for the better. 3 programs total. One changes the ramp based on time. One for the delay in the off. The other to turn them on quickly. Time-Ramp Change If From 10:30:00PM To 2:00:00AM (next day) Then In Scene 'RemoteLinc 2 Single - A' Set 'Drawing Desk' 8.0 Min (Ramp Rate) In Scene 'RemoteLinc 2 Single - A' Set 'Dresser' 8.0 Min (Ramp Rate) Else In Scene 'RemoteLinc 2 Single - A' Set 'Drawing Desk' 0.5 Sec (Ramp Rate) In Scene 'RemoteLinc 2 Single - A' Set 'Dresser' 0.5 Sec (Ramp Rate) In Scene 'Both Bedroom' Set 'Drawing Desk' 0.5 Sec (Ramp Rate) In Scene 'Both Bedroom' Set 'Dresser' 0.5 Sec (Ramp Rate) Delay off If Control 'RemoteLinc 2 Single - A' is switched Off And Program 'Time-Ramp Change' is True Then Wait 5 seconds In Scene 'Both Bedroom' Set 'Drawing Desk' 6.5 Sec (Ramp Rate) In Scene 'Both Bedroom' Set 'Dresser' 6.5 Sec (Ramp Rate) Set Scene 'Both Bedroom' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Normal on If Control 'RemoteLinc 2 Single - A' is switched On And Program 'Time-Ramp Change' is True Then Set Scene 'Both Bedroom' Fast On Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

The remotelinc is the controller for the two lights in the scene. So if the ramp rate doesn't change the current one in process, but the next one. Wouldn't having the program run that scene again after I made the ramp change be the next run, or does it have to finish its ramp first? Example (I think): Scene A is set to .5 sec ramp rate. Time is between 11:30pm and 4am, ramp rate on scene A is changed to 9 min. When remotelinc off button is pressed, wait 30 sec, change ramp rate of scene A to 4.5 sec, run scene A Then there could be a restore program to change the ramp rate back to 9min if the time is between 11:30 and 4. In my head it works, but thats also based on the little programming I know outside of ISY.

I have a remotelinc2 that is programed to turn a couple lights in the bedroom on and off at a .5 sec ramp rate. What I would like to happen is that between 11:30pm and 4:00am (the next day), is that once the remotelinc2 off is pressed, there is a 2 min delay and then the lights ramp off at a 4.5 sec ramp rate. Every time I try something, it never seems to work. I don't like the delay that exist if I write a program for the normal operation and unlink the current lights from the remotelinc2. Is there a way to possibly changed the ramp rate on the lights to 9min ramp rate, wait 2 min and then change the ramp rate to 4.5 sec. That way it seems like there is a delay before the lights turned off. Thanks for helping this newbie.

They were manual Set button links before adding the RemoteLinc2 to the ISY. But the remote still works even after adding. Is it possible to remove it and then have it find the links again? Or would I be better to just erase it and set the scene with ISY

So I'm new to ISY but decided to jump right into 3.1.13 because I have a RemoteLinc2 (single paddle switch) that I wanted to add. The problem I have is that only the RemoteLinc2 is listed, but the scene that it runs is not. I had previously recorded the RemoteLinc2 to turn on two lamps. The RemoteLinc (model 2440) had no problem showing all the scenes that were programed. Is there and easy way to get the RemoteLinc2 to show its scenes in the isy? Thanks.
