Thanks, @carealtor. Got it to work finally! Wasn't intuitive for me to create a new scene for each device, with the device as the controller, which then enabled the device to appear in the "In Scene" dropdown, and then selecting the device (not the scene) for both the "In Scene" and "Set" dropdowns. -norm

Hi folks, I want to create a program that adjusts the on level of my devices for daytime vs night time, but I think I am missing something after reading this how-to post: http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/1305-some-detailed-how-tos/?do=findComment&comment=10451 I have a ISY scene "Lighting On level" in which I added all the switches that I want controlled (ie. they are responders to "Lighting On level"), but it doesn't appear to apply the changes to the switches locally? Night time On level - [ID 000B][Parent 0001] If From 7:00:00PM To 8:00:00AM (next day) Then In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Kailani Overhead' 30% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Kaleo Overhead' 30% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Master Closet' 30% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Master Overhead' 30% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Living Room Overhead' 30% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Dining Overhead' 30% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Family Room Overhead' 30% (On Level) Else In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Kailani Overhead' 100% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Kaleo Overhead' 100% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Master Overhead' 100% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Master Closet' 100% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Living Room Overhead' 100% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Dining Overhead' 100% (On Level) In Scene 'Lighting On level' Set 'Family Room Overhead' 100% (On Level) I have a separate program that controls the LED brightness, but that applies to the switches as I expected (but they are setting the device values directly vs via a program): Night time LED brightness - [ID 0009][Parent 0001] If From 7:00:00PM To 7:00:00AM (next day) Then Set 'Kailani Overhead' 1% (Backlight Level) Set 'Kaleo Overhead' 1% (Backlight Level) Set 'Master Closet' 1% (Backlight Level) Set 'Master Overhead' 1% (Backlight Level) Set 'Living Room Overhead' 1% (Backlight Level) Set 'Family Room Overhead' 1% (Backlight Level) Else Set 'Master Overhead' 50% (Backlight Level) Set 'Master Closet' 50% (Backlight Level) Set 'Kaleo Overhead' 50% (Backlight Level) Set 'Kailani Overhead' 50% (Backlight Level) Set 'Living Room Overhead' 50% (Backlight Level) Set 'Family Room Overhead' 50% (Backlight Level) Am I missing a step to make the On level apply locally to the switches?

Ah. I did update my java install recently per the post here: viewtopic.php?f=44&t=10409 and downloaded the admin console listed there, which is 3.3.9. That's probably how I got the 3.3.9 admin console I just downloaded the 3.2.6 version and ran that admin console, but am still having the same issue

Hi folks, i've followed the instructions on the wiki: http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index ... ion_Sensor but I am not able to link it to my ISY994 This is what I enter for the new device: but when I press OK, that dialog closes and I get this following dialog and then nothing else: i'm expecting to see the dialog where it tells me to put the device into linking mode, like it has for my 3 other motion sensors I've linked. Any idea of what's going on? I'm on the v.3.2.6 firmware / v3.3.9 UI

thanks for the confirmation. Guess I'll swap the old Switchlinc with the newer one. Was there a particular line in the debug log that helped you determine this? I'm fairly new to using the ISY994 but would like to understand what to look for next time.

the SwitchLinc v.27 in question is v3.1. Not sure exactly how old it is, but it's been several years (probably 4+).

Here's a screenshot: I just checked with another 2476D that is v4.5 (though ISY says v.38 in it's interface) and the settings I apply in ISY work, so is it just that the v3.1 switch is incapable of setting its local settings via the ISY?

Thanks, i set up the scene as you suggested, but when I turn on the light locally at the switch (2476D SwitchLinc Dimmer v.27), the lights still turn on to 100%, BUT the ISY shows the state at 30%. Is there something that I might have missed? If From 11:00:00PM To 6:00:00AM (next day) Then In Scene 'Kitchen Overhead Lights' Set 'Kitchen Overhead Lights' 30% (On Level) Else In Scene 'Kitchen Overhead Lights' Set 'Kitchen Overhead Lights' 100% (On Level)

I know that you can control the on & ramp levels of devices in a scene, eg. Using a Program to adjust On level/Ramp Rates for a Scene but is there a way to program the ISY994 to schedule the ON level of a SwitchLinc 2476D Dimmer switch itself and not a scene? I also tried creating a scene with only that switch & setting a schedule to adjust the ON level but it didn't appear to work (can a controller also be a responder in a scene?) For example, I'd like to make the ON level of my bathroom light set to 30% when it's 11pm-6am, and 100% otherwise. thanks
