I will be pulling the switches this Saturday and checking the configuration. I will post what I find. I appreciate all of the help and suggestions.

This is, indeed, a 3 way switch configuration. Both have a neutral attached, to the best of my recollection. Still having the interesting problem of the lights not turning on and off appropriately within the KPL.

I honestly don't remember if one is a load and the other has a neutral. I will have to open it up and double check. The two KPL's mainly control the on/off of lights outside in the patio. Additionally, I installed a load controller for a 220v pool pump (which should be button A), and two light switches for the pool light (button "B") and fountain lights (button C). So the A, B, and C buttons are all cross linked and are controllers, not responders. When I have reset them and try to delete the old scene and install a new one, I get the same button lights turns on for a few seconds and then shuts off. Everything other than the lights on the buttons works. The pool pump turns on, the outside lights turn on, and the fountain lights work. I just can't figure out the rest.

You know when you have installed 50 Insteon devices and everything works well? Then you install two KPL's and link them together, but the lights don't work properly when you use one to control a light and the other responds briefly and then shuts off? Or when you use one KPL to turn on a light and then both KPL's go dim in terms of showing status via the internal LED's? That is what is happening to me. I can't figure it out and I am getting ready to rip these two KPL's out. I know they work as I have blanked them and installed them in a single switch situation where they control the lights properly, the keypad light lights up, etc. However, when I use them both to control a light, I can't get them to both show status of the light being on via the lights on the pad, and when I think I have a solution, one or the other of the lights on the pad blanks out or turns off. This is getting maddening. Can anyone help me? Paul

OK, I see the Fountains are not in red, but the keypads are. The fountains are in blue. I have forgotten how to move these over to red or to make them controllers.

Steve, I did that in scenes, as far as I can tell, but it still doesn't work. Paul

Steve, Help in this endeavor would be appreciated. I can't seem to "see" how to do this. Paul

I am not normally stupid, but I need some help. This is driving me nuts. The setup is this: I have two Insteon Keypad Dimmer Switches (6 button, one in living room the other in the family room) which control a 220V/240 V 30 map Insteon load controller on my pool pump for my fountains. This pump is dedicated to the fountains. When I hit the "A" button for the pump at either of the dimmer switches, they both respond properly that the pump is on. However, if I go to the pool area and hit the switch from there, the pump does turn on, but it does not report to the keypad switches the load is on, or rather, the keypad lights don't turn on. I am being driven crazy by this as only someone on a day off can be. Is anyone willing to help? Thanks, Paul

OK, tried to do as you had written. No luck. In exasperation, I deleted the device on the control panel. I then hit the switch on the Switch Link mode, setting it into link mode. I reinstalled the device. I then went to the program and had to reinsert the device with the new name and parameters. I tried it out, and it worked. I was surprised. Not sure what was happening, but I hope it doesn't happen again. Paul

When toggling the switch (physically going there and turning it on), no, it does not update on the control panel. If I turn it "on", the control panel will report it is "off". If I use the control panel, however, to turn it "on", it reports it is "on" and shows my little program running. I tried unplugging the ISY/994 and replugging it back in, but it didn't seem to work.

I didn't think to check that when I was originally diagnosing the problem. So, I went ahead and checked. When I hit the actual switch in the bathroom, the Summary does not show "Running Then" or "True" in the display. However, when I use the control panel to turn it on, I then see the "Running Then" and "True" in the display. Likewise when I use Mobilinc. I can't explain this issue. Any ideas?

I have had my ISY/994 for over a year. I have programmed it to do several things, with the one program that has to work being a bathroom fan for my wife (don't ask). The program has been working for over a year, but as of yesterday, the program no longer works. Here is the program: If Status 'Master Bath Fan' is on Then Wait 20 minutes Set 'Master Bath Fan' Off Else Set 'Master Bath Fan' Off What is now going on is when I hit the Switch Link in the bathroom, the bath fan will stay on forever. It doesn't shut off after 20 minutes. If I access the ISY/994 control panel via my computer, it "sees" the Switch Link as being off. However, when I control the Switch Link via the control panel, I have full access to the range of commands (On/Off, etc.) I am not sure why this is happening now, but would appreciate any advice or help.

Alright, I found what I was missing. I found the Patio Fan link and had to add it to the Patio Fan Light scene in order to make it work properly with the KPL. After doing so, everything is working properly. I have now added a second Fanlinc and have it working properly, too. A lot of work, but well worth it. My wife is allowing me to stay in the home. Another victory.

OK, I have set up always on power to the Fanlinc and have been able to setup the buttons properly (Fan high - the fan turns on high; Fan Medium- the fan turns on medium, etc. including Fan Off). Now I can't get the light to turn on with the ON/OFF button but can turn it on using the ISY 994. I created a Patio Fan Light scene and have the 21.67.C4-Light within the scene. When I click on the main scene button (Patio Fan Light), I see a 21.67.C4-Light On Level set to 100 and a Ramp Rate set to .1s. When I click on the individual 21.67.C4-Light, I see a current state of 0 (because the light is off), the On Level (Applied Locally) set to 100 and the Ramp Rate (Applied Locally) set to .1s. So when I go to the KPL and hit ON, nothing happens. When I hit ON via the ISY 994, the light does turn on. What am I missing?

Ok, will have to try to provide always on power to the Fanlinc and then have the KPL control that. I should have thought of that as well. I do see a second wire in the junction box, probably for a switch for light or fan in a different situation. In one of my other rooms in the house, there is a switch for a fan and a switch for a light on two separate rocker switches. Looks like they did the same here but did not run the extra switch.
