  1. what device is used for 'Doors and Windows / Door-Sliding'?
  2. If your ran the diagnostics did you find any corrupted link tables?
  3. Try running a diagnostics on each the switches for your kitchen lights, (show device link tables, then compare links) to see if any of your links are corrupted. You can also try a restore device, which rewrites the device link tables, for the kitchen switches to see if that makes a difference. Another possibility may be that with all the RF devices you have in your system you may be getting data collisions that interfere with the Insteon signals. Are the problems you're experiencing consistent or do they vary?
  4. You should have all the switches that control the kitchen lights placed in a scene as controllers? Turning the scene on or off will then correctly reflect in all the switches located within the scene. When controlling the lights from the ISY you should turn the scene on/off not just one of the switches.
  5. Change "control" to "status" Status is the state of the device, Control is when the device is physically turned on or off.
  6. You'll need to clear your Java cache including applications then download the 4.3.26 version of the Admin console. Hopefully that should clean up your problems. Let us know if that cleared up your issues.
  7. What's version of the ISY firmware What the version of the user interface (admin console) are you using? Do you have anything that could be interfering with the Insteon signals such as a UPS, T.V's, etc. that have not been filtered?
  8. Techman replied to jam10's topic in ISY994
    The on/off module is a dual band device as are most of the current modules with the exception of battery operated devices and the IOLinc and some switches. You can check the specs for a device on the Smarthome website which will show if it supports RF.
  9. Which option are you using to download the admin console? What's the version of your ISY firmware?
  10. Delete your Java cache including applications, that will remove the admin console
  11. Is it possible that the sensors are getting tripped multiple times because the location they're sitting in is bridging the contacts. Are they sitting on a dry, non-conductive surface?
  12. Techman replied to smokegrub's topic in ISY994
    Are you using your local UI 4.3.26 to access the remote ISY? If so, that might explain the disparity
  13. Techman replied to KYnewbie's topic in ISY994
    Make sure that the device names in your program match those in the scene. Click on the "RUN THEN" clause in your program then manually turn on your light switch. The light should come on at 30%. If that's the case then it's working correctly .
  14. Techman replied to Pascal's topic in Testimonials
    Do you mean that the sensor is 10 feet from the PLM? Is the PLM a dual band model? If so and it still doesn't work then try removing and reinstalling the sensor.
  15. Techman replied to Pascal's topic in Testimonials
    Place the sensor on a wet paper towel, the wet node should show as on in the ISY. Press the set button on the leak sensor to re-set off the wet node to off and the dry node to on You'll need to have a dual band device within fairly close proximity to the sensor in order to insure good RF communications between the sensor and the ISY

    Remove the 2477D from the scene then add it back to the scene as a controller It needs to be a controller in order to control the scene that's setting your levels. A device that's a controller will show up as red in your device tree, a responder will show up as blue.
  17. Techman replied to KYnewbie's topic in ISY994
    Your program looks correct. Did add your 2477D to the scene as a controller?
  18. When you add a device to the ISY it gets added as both a responder and a controller. There are exceptions such as thermostats, IOLinc relays, Insteon light bubs. The other devices in your system should show up in red meaning they are both controller/responders. I noticed that you have a pending write for your kitchen desk which is the green 1101 to the left of the device. Right click on that device and click on write updates. If the write fails then you have either a communication problem with the device or a defective device. Unplug the load from the device before you do a write update as it's possible the load is causing issues. What type of bulb is in the lamp? If the write still fails then you may want to try a factory reset/restore device on the outlet What action causes all the lights to come on, is it a button press from a device or from the ISY? When you added all your devices did you do it via the linking option in the ISY?
  19. Did you add the 2427D to a scene as a controller or is it just be controlled by a program? You can always delete the 2427D from the ISY then add it back in.
  20. Everything I owned from the 70 - 90's are still rocking on. Things from the past were just built to last not necessarily designed to be energy efficient like my monster dual mono amps! I couldn't agree with you more, sadly they don't make them like they used to
  21. I've been using various CREE led bulbs for a long time and have never had a problem. I wonder if the bulbs sold in Canada are from a different factory than those sold in the U.S.
  22. Try using something like: If Control 'Kit NE KPL G' is switched FAST Off or Control 'Kit NE KPL G' is switched FAST ON Then Stop program
  23. Try doing a "restore device", you may have some link records that are incorrect.
  24. MustangChris04 Try doing a restore device for the Outdoor module and the keypad. It's possible that the link records got corrupted.
  25. Rev 2.0, "1438" date code?, Purchased 2/5/15, Rec'd 2/9/15, In service 8/4/15. This was built in September 2014 (the 38th week of 2014). Hardware version 2.0 My current spare: V2.1, "1514", Rec'd 8/10/15. This was built in March/April 2015, hardware version 2.1 I've taken to keeping the invoices and shipping documents, but Smarthome has always been really good about the exchanges. Let me know if you can decode the date codes. They look suspiciously like they may have a year in them. Thanks for your help. Take a look in the admin console under diagnostics / PLM info/status for your PLM firmware version. Mine, which is less than a year old, is v9E. Not sure what the current shipping versions are.
