Thanks Lee I will run the test and see what comes up. Not sure if they are on opposite 120v legs. But they are in RF range.
-
In the scene if I select the outlet linc I can turn the light on and off but the KPL H button will not go on or off. It is almost like the button will not communicate with the outlet linc?
-
Both the outlet and the KPL show on level at 100%
-
One other interesting thing. I can control the light on the Universal Console under the regular device setting but not from when I put it in a scene linked to the KPL. If I try and turn on the light through the scene the KPL button lights up but the actual light does not. If I go directly to the outletlinc not in the scene I can turn the lght on and off.
-
Thanks for the response Lee. No the outlet linc is not a dimmer. I have KeypadLinc button H as the controller and outletlinc as the responder. Yes, when I turn on the Outletlinc from the Admin Console. The light goes on and when I click on the KPL name the on level remains at0%

I have an Insteon wall outlet. I have china cabinet light plugged into the outlet. I have repeatedly tried to program one of the buttons on the KPL to operate it and it will not. Am I missing something with the wall outlet device? I can turn on the device by way of the computer but not buy the button on the KPL. Confused.
-
Thanks Lee. Appreciate the help.

I just changed one of my KPL from a 6 button to an 8 button. Everything is working but how do I add the new buttons?Do I have to delete the device and then add it back in to get the other buttons? If so, I would lose all the scenes? Thanks

With that said how can I correct it so that I do not want the else to run when the lamp program is running. Basically I do not want the garage program to execute any light on or off until after 10:10pm. How would I word that? My wording seems to be close but I need to add what? To make that happen.
-
Just tested it again and as soon as I open the garage the program status says running else. Why if it isn't scheduled until 10:10pm?
-
OK.....everything works great except I ran into one small problem. This program is suppose to run from 10:10pm until 1:10am next day. The family room lamp that is on this program is also on another program that turns the lamp on from 8pm until 10pm just like a regular timer. Unfortunately if I come through the garage door between 8 and 10 it seems the lamp will go off after 2 min. What am I missing. The 8 to 10 program should not be effected because I don't have the other program starting until 10:10pm right? Confused???
-
sorry I changed it to hallway! Thanks for the help. I will look at it again. At least I know I'm on the right track.

If From 10:10:00PM To 1:10:00AM (next day) And Status 'Garage / Garage door-Sensor' is On Then Set Scene 'Family Room Scenes / Family Room Lamp' On Set Scene 'Kitchen Scenes / Kitchen Cabinets' On In Scene 'Hallway Scenes / Hallway' Set 'Hallway / Hallway' 25% (On Level) Else Wait 2 minutes Set Scene 'Kitchen Scenes / Kitchen Cabinets' Off Set Scene 'Family Room Scenes / Family Room Lamp' Off Set Scene 'Hallway Scenes / Hallway' Off

Can you have more than one line under the then? For instance when my garage door opens I want two different lights to go on. Right now I have "set scene" family room lights on. Under that I have "set scene" bedroom lamp on. I want both to go off after 10 min. So far I can get everything to work correctly except the bedroom lamp will not go on???? Do I need to do a separate program exactly the same just adding bedroom lamp? Thanks for the help
-
OK I think I get what you are saying, but I have an Open button and a Close button on my phone and they both do what is said, open and close. So if I am understanding this correctly, then in this case I can use the close button or off in my program and it will close the door just as if I was executing the command from my phone......right?
-
thanks Lee. That's exactly how I wrote it with the exception of, then wait 5 minutes and set IOlinc to off. Wouldn't you set the then IOlinc to off since that is what I want it to do? In this case it is the garage door which is "open" for 5 min and then I want it to "close" or off. Getting close to understanding some of this. Also, what is the "else" used for?
-
I can't get the terminology correct on writing a program if my garage is left open for longer than 5 minutes after 11pm and before 6am the next day, I would like it to have it close automatically. Any help would be great. I just don't quite fully understand the if, then yet. Thanks a lot in advance.
-
Thanks. I tried what you did but under content it would not let me type anything. It just stayed default?
-
I have successfully set up so I can receive a text alert to my phone. Not sure how to actually get one sent. I would like to receive a text if the garage door is left open longer than 10 minutes. Thanks for any help in advance!
-
Thanks Lee I will make a create a scene and see how it goes.
-
Opening and closing the door via my iphone using mobilelinc, I can only use the open or on button to open and close the door. The close button does not work.
-
I unchecked the trigger box in options. still same problem
-
Also I used the red and the black wires from the magnetic source. I capped off the green wire.
-
The green led is off when the door is closed. On when the door is opened.
-
I just hooked up the garage linc today and it works, well kinda? I currently control the door from my phone with the Mobilelinc app. The door opens when I push on and closes when I push on also. I cannot get the status correct. for instance, when the door is open is says status closed and the little garage picture on the app also shows the door closed. I am using the ISY-99 and all I did was enter the new device into the system and it worked. What am I missing to get the device to show the correct status? Thanks! 1
