The scene "Mudroom Lights" for the lights shows two devices; "Mudroom togglelinc" and "A Mud Room Entry Keypad". When I select button B in the device tree, for membership it shows "Is a Controller for GaragedoorMain" and "is a Responder for Garagedoormain". Garagedoormain is a scene with "Garagedoormain-Sensor" from the iolinc and "B Openclose Garagedoor" as a controller-responder from button B on the keypadlinc. One other thing I want to clarify, even though the button B light is going on and off via the togglelinc, it is not activating the garage door.

I have a 8 button keypadlinc in my mudroom where button A controls the ceiling light in the room. On the other side of the room is an Insteon togglelinc in a 3-way companion to the ceiling light. Button A is the controller for the load. Button B on the keypadlinc opens the garage door via an iolinc system. When the garage door is closed, Button B is illuminated ("on") and one press will raise the door. When the door is open, Button B is not illuminated ("off") and one press will close the door. The problem is when the togglelinc is used to turn off the ceiling light, it also turns off button B (and correctly Button A), thus requiring now two presses to raise the door (one press will re-illuminate the button (arming it) and then another press to activate the door open program). This is not a rare event but happens with complete consistency. Really, the way it is working is Button B's illumination is following Button A's. This is the only button on the keypadlinc that does this. The other buttons on the keypadlinc are completely independent of the togglelinc. So, in summary, from the togglelinc when you turn on the ceiling light, both button A and button B illuminate and when you turn off the ceiling light from the togglelinc both button A and button B turn off. In the event log, when I toggle off the togglelinc I am seeing traffic such as this: Togglelinc turn off: Sat 05/02/2015 04:16:33 PM : [iNST-SRX ] 02 50 17.AE.2F 00.00.01 CB 13 00 LTOFFRR(00) Sat 05/02/2015 04:16:33 PM : [std-Group ] 17.AE.2F-->Group=1, Max Hops=3, Hops Left=2 Sat 05/02/2015 04:16:33 PM : [D2D EVENT ] Event [17 AE 2F 1] [DOF] [0] uom=0 prec=-1 Sat 05/02/2015 04:16:33 PM : [ 17 AE 2F 1] DOF 0 Sat 05/02/2015 04:16:33 PM : [iNST-SRX ] 02 50 17.AE.2F 1C.F9.D3 41 13 01 LTOFFRR(01) Sat 05/02/2015 04:16:33 PM : [std-Cleanup ] 17.AE.2F-->ISY/PLM Group=1, Max Hops=1, Hops Left=0 Sat 05/02/2015 04:16:33 PM : [iNST-DUP ] Previous message ignored.

It really works pretty good except for this idiosyncrasy. I have tried erasing and resetting the togglelinc and the behavior continues. Any suggestions on where to start troubleshooting this? I will also add that the control of the ceiling light is correct from both the keypadlinc and the togglelinc. One more thing that may be important, when Button A is used to turn on/off the ceiling light, the state of Button B goes unchanged. Thanks in advance for any help that anyone can provide.

Mobilinc HD. On both an iphone 5s and ipad. Not a perfect solution (what software is), but from my research in these forums it is about the best there is. The iphone quirks I've seen are flaky geofencing which may be more of an issue with my particular wifi-cell phone topology than with the program. Also, when the phone transitions from wifi to cell connection, there is a definite lag in connection. This really effects the garage door operation more than anything. I can sit at the end of my driveway (middle the transition area) and it takes about 2 minutes for it to make up its mind how it wants to connect. It is about a 100 foot dead-band area. The Mobilinc Connect option may address these, but I don't want yet another monthly subscription cost to deal with. The ipad quirk is the icons for the insteon devices can't be changed. Even though you can go through the motions to change an icon to something relevant to the device, it doesn't stick and defaults back to the standard switchlinc icon. So garage doors, ceiling fans, outdoor lights etc all look like switchlincs. Not a big deal, just annoying. Maybe there is a fix for this I do not know about. Really pretty graphics though. They also have pretty good support, from what I hear.

Got it working. I discovered that I had the i.gdm_dontwatch and the i.gdm_requested status as state variables instead of integer variables (facepalm). I also for some reason had to extend the pulse duration on the iolinc from 0.2 to 0.3 seconds for consistent opening for the opener.

I have implemented this program and it works pretty good except I had to disable the Program 003 loop section. When this is active, the garage door will start to go down from the raised position and then in about 1 second of movement (about 1/3 of the way down) it reverses and opens back up. I think this may be due to how I have my sensor system. I am not using the magnetic sensors at the door, but instead have an industrial style limit switch with a roller arm that is actuated by a block that is attached to the drive chain. The sensor is on (active) in the door up position and then goes off when the door closes. I have played around to no success with Momentary A, Momentary B, and Momentary C settings on the 2450 iolinc (v.41 BTW).
