Can you post a copy of one of your programs that isn't working what ISY firmware and UI are you running. What version of the ISY do you have?

I have to agree with oberkc. The fluorescent lights, once on, could be creating powerline noise thus interfering with the off signal. If you can turn the lights on and off from the switch then I would try plugging the range extender into the IOLinc which might help improve the signal. Do you have other dual band devices close by other than your range extender.

Take a look at this thread, #15. Seems the old RL's can be somewhat problematic. http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/19294-communication-issues/?hl=%2Bremotelinc+%2B2440&do=findComment&comment=181041

Try doing a scene diagnostics which will give you a log (hopefully) showing where the problem is.

Put all the lights into a scene and then run a program at sunset to turn on the scene You can run a 2nd program that runs from 10:01pm until ?? that says if lights x,x,x are not off then turn them off.

Noremac, I noticed that your Remotelinc is showing v.00. It most likely didn't install properly. You should delete and reinstall it. When installing/linking battery operated devices make sure only one battery operated device is in the linking mode at any one time and that the device is within close proximity to a dual band device to insure RF coupling.

Do a factory reset on the switch then a device restore from the ISY

Hi Drew, I'm not sure what the factory setting is, but it's really no big deal to play with the led setting to find one that suits you.

If you're using the device with the ISY then you have the option in the admin console to adjust the device's leds Being that you have manually changed the setting on the device it's probably a good idea to do a restore device.

You might want to run a PLM link count again, if it looks like the PLM is not retaining its links then you have a defective unit. If you bought it from Smarthome then its still under warranty.

What's the date code and the version number of your PLM. Did you buy it directly from Smarthome?

did you link them following the instructions that came with the devices, or did you link them using the instructions for the ISY?

The PLM date code shows it was manufactured in February 2015 so it should be OK. Some of the earlier PLMs had issues with their power supplies. I would focus on electronics that may be interfering with the Insteon signals. Do you have a UPS, TV, etc on the same circuit as the PLM? Here's a troubleshooting flow chart https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:Troubleshooting_Flowchart

Cam, What's the date code and version number of your PLM? If you run a diagnostics / compare on one of the devices that's problematic does it show any mismatched link tables? It's possible that the PLM is failing or that you have some interference on your powerline. Have you recently added any new electronics, etc?

It's probably not a good idea to have to door close unattended. What you could do is have a timer signal an alert in the house if the door is left open for a period of time.

The date code on the keypad indicates it was built in 2009, the firmware is v.36. The unit probably needs to be replaced if a reset didn't resolve the problem. Some of the older keypads had problems that have since been resolved.

If you have a Lamplinc, a On/Off module or a Range Extender, which are all dual band, you can try plugging one into the IOlinc to see if that eliminates your problem. If it does then you most likely have a powerline communication issue that you'll need to work on.

If your using the ISY994 then use the CAT5 cable between the ISY and the PLM. Be sure to exactly follow the PLM replacement procedures. found here Do not do a "delete modem" https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:File_Menu You may also need a power supply http://www.smarthome.com/universal-devices-isy-power-supply.html

You can try a restore PLM which might give you a temporary fix but you'll still most likely need to replace it.

What's the date code and version on your PLM. Is the green led on the PLM lit?

A range extender or a external dual band module such as an on/off module will probably give you better RF range due to the location of their antennas.

If you want use this as a remote then, depending how your house and garage are configured, you'll need a dual band device or a range extender near the garage door in order to optimize the range of the remote which is only about 50 feet. The IOLinc, which I assume you'll be using to trigger the garage opener is not a dual band device.

Did you link the IOLincs to the ISY using the ISY linking option? Do you have any other controllers installed other than the ISY? If you trigger the IOLinc program from the ISY rather than from MobiLinc do you get the same results?

Can you be a little more specific. Are you referring to the 2342-222 Remotelinc?

Try setting the on level to 1 and the off level to 0 If the on level is set too high then the led will still be lit when the button is off. The exact ratios vary from keypad to keypad depending on their firmware version so you'll have to play with the numbers to get the results you want. Hope this helps.
