It sounds like it's wired incorrectly.the micromodule should be wired to receive constant hot.

It all depends on how the fan responds to its controller. If you cut power to the fan, does it start back up if left on? If it does then the micromodule will work. You can also use the sense wire that's on the micromodule when you use the fan locally so you don't lose any control. That however comes down to whether or not your remote is wireless though.

I wouldn't worry about stating if the lights are off. If they are already on it wouldn't matter if you turned them on. If you turn on the lights manually and don't want the auto off to take place, I would simply write a program that temporarily disables the motion program for the time period you choose

I would remove there module and then install the micromodule. That's actually my plan for the future when my fanlincs die since I never change the speeds

I would remove the if front lights are on from your if statement

Yes, smarthome has links to the compatible detectors on the smoke bridge webpage https://www.smarthome.com/first-alert-sco501cn-3st-onelink-carbon-monoxide-and-smoke-detector-with-voice.html

Unfortunately you picked up the wrong model. That is not compatible with the smoke bridge

Battery operated devices are "asleep" until triggered which is why you have to activate them (depending on age they should have a heartbeat that check in every 24hrs). Are you using the 99 or 994?

I wonder who that could be ?!!! Don't get me wrong, I do agree with you and it would be nice. I just think about how many people have problems with a simple 3way switch and hate to see what additional complications would do to them. While one would think there wouldn't be an additional cost we know there would be. Let's be real, a person will spend 35 bucks on a no name zwave switch with no features (and complain) before coughing up 50 bucks on a well known brand that does zwave properly. While insteon is the only game in town, the race to the bottom is on. Anything that costs them more can be detrimental.

That would be nice but I think it would overly complicated things for most people. You'd still need someway to program that in so a controller would still be necessary. That's not even taking into account the additional cost it would add to switches which no one would want to pay for. I do wish the kpl buttons were truly independent so that we didn't have to go through the process of making a scene just to be able to control it.

You'll want to status your switches. If status switch A B or C is not off set kpl button D on. Then you'll want a second program to turn off the button If status switch A B and C is off set kpl button D off

Create a scene, add all of the devices you want to that scene as responders. You'll then be able to set them to whatever level you want as you would any scene.

Probably not. Not saying it can't come in handy. I tend not to overthink things that I normally wouldn't do without automation

Doesn't matter the distance. All it needs is internet access. I have a client in the middle of BFE VA. that still has access. In the end as long as you can find a solution that's what matters

I've installed at least 3 dozen ecobees (probably more) without these type of issues. Not saying they can't have problems but if they are having issues like you say, most likely there is something with the setup itself and not the unit itself

Rather than run 2 isy setups, I would use a well established thermostat separately from the isy such as the Ecobee 3. This would give you peace of mind that your system is in good hands with something you don't have to be worried about failing. You would have remote control over it and could still add it to your Isy via Polyglot for additional capabilities.

For wireless remotes, I use programs so that I don't have to put the remote in linking mode whenever I make a change. I simply create a scene, add the devices I want to control as responders and set the level that I want. Once that is done, I simply write the corresponding programs that turn on/off

Both switches need to be insteon. Doesn't matter what type. It just needs to be insteon

What was your step by step process

Personally, I would rather use hue or lifx. Much easier to set up and configure as well as being more capable.

Try factory resetting the plm and plugging it into a different outlet. If that doesn't work then it's bad.

Did you plug the plm into port A and power it up prior to powering up the ISY?

I'm with MWester and Paulbates in regards to keeping my HVAC separate fromy isy. I have the Ecobee3's and allow them to run themselves with minimum input from me. I have recently added mine to the isy via nodeservers for additional capabilities but not to actually control anything. For example, if a door or window is open too long, the AC will turn off. If a particular room gets warm (but not enough to turn down the AC then the fan will automatically turn on if its occupied. The Ecobee does a great job on its own but the ISY give me additional things I would not have otherwise

He's a troll. He's done that on a few other posts.
