Not sure if I'm dealing with bad hardware or comm issues.
Put the mini remote into the linking mode then click on write updates to device.

KeypadLinc Dimmer 8 button (v45) unable to turn off attached lights
I think the problem may be in your scene and not the hardware Run a scene test and post the results

KeypadLinc Dimmer 8 button (v45) unable to turn off attached lights
Try removing power from the KPL for about 10 seconds by puling out the set button. If that didn't help then try a factory reset / restore device. I've had several KPL's act up when there has been a surge on the power line. The reset seems to work for me.

Motion sensor causing "ALL ON" event! Again!
Check your MS batteries, Some of the MS send a continuous ON signal, instead of a low battery signal, when the battery voltage is low. Not sure if this has been corrected in the recent firmware / hardware release of the MS

2441ZTH No Temperature Display on Console
What's the voltage of your A/C supply? Try doing a restore device, it's possible that the link table got corrupted The temperature only updates about every 2 degrees of temperature change regardless of whether you're on batteries or A/C. A query won't update the ISY. The humidity will update upon a change of 1%

Correct way to restore PLM?
Only one RF device at a time can be put into the linking mode. After you restore the PLM then put one of the RF devices into linking mode and right click on the device and click on restore device. After that device exits the linking mode you can then do the same for the next RF device. If you're still having issues after the restores then you may have either a failing PLM or a communications problem between the PLM and the devices. A restore PLM rewrites the link tables in the PLM with the data stores in the ISY.

8 Button Keypad Not Recognizing Pushes on 3 Buttons
also try doing a diagnostic | compare on the KPL to see if you have any links that are mismatched. are you running the 994 pro? what version of the ISY firmware and UI are you running?

How about this setup on your night stand http://www.smarthome.com/insteon-2335-222-6-button-scene-control-keypad-with-tabletop-enclosure-white.html You could use the dimmer to control the lights and the other buttons to turn on your scenes

Entire system going crazy
Stu is correct, it was on Amazon. The good news is it's still there waiting for you!!

Entire system going crazy
I just noticed that Smarthome has dropped the price on the 2413S to $53.65. I wonder if they're clearing them out for the new model?
-
ISY lost controll of all devices.
The 2413S PLM is dual band, both RF and powerline. If your system appears to be more dependent on RF then the powerline you may have either interference on the powerline or the two legs of your powerliine may not be properly coupled

Problems with my ISY994i - Stopped Communicating
Is the green light on the PLM lit? If not then either the PLM failed or the PLM isn't getting power from the outlet. Did you check the cable between the PLM and the ISY

How do you correlate the group broadcast address to a scene
Under tools | diagnostics there's a scene test option which turns the scene on and off and opens up a level 3 diagnostic window with the command details. It also provides a list of devices controlled by the scene. This probably doesn't accomplish exactly what you're looking for but this is the only other tool I'm aware of that might help you out.

Receive Status but cannot Control
Which version of the ISY firmware and UI are you running A switchlinc is hardwired device, how are you plugging it in?. What's the model number of the device? If you remove the LED lights then run the diagnostics what happens? Plugging the PLM or other devices into a outlet strip could interfere with the Insteon signal. Try bypassing the strip
-
Receive Status but cannot Control
Run a diagnostics / compare link tables on the Switchlinc If you have any mismatched links then do a restore device which will rewrite the devices link tables. If that doesn't solve your issue then you most likely have a communications issue between the PLM and the Switchlinc What type of load is the switchlinc controlling?

How do you correlate the group broadcast address to a scene
What exactly are you trying to accomplish, why do you want to monitor group broadcasts. There may be other options.

How do you correlate the group broadcast address to a scene
Run a topology report (tools | Generate topology). The report is full of info including, at the bottom of the report, exactly what you're looking for.

How will 2441TH with 2441ZTH work with an ISY?
One other possibility - if the units are linked manually it possible that the ISY doesn't have the correct/complete link tables. which may be causing the master to revert to the wired unit. What happens if you adjust only the wireless unit rather than the wired unit via the ISY/Mobillinc?
-
How will 2441TH with 2441ZTH work with an ISY?
Set the wireless thermostat as a master. Does the master setting then, and should, turn off on the wired unit? Note: the manual states that the wireless unit must be linked to the master for this to work. I'm not sure if linking both units via the ISY accomplishes this or if you have to link them manually.

Suggestion for Admin Console
Try using auto detect and type in the device address xx.xx.xx If that doesn't work then you may have a communication issue with the device

Door Sensors Not Reporting Status
There's no way to program or query a battery operated device remotely. They're always in the sleep mode to preserve battery life. The only other option is to use a magnetic contact switch coupled to an IOLinc

Door Sensors Not Reporting Status
The battery signal and the on/off signal are totally independent of one another. It must have been something else.
