These all sound like great things to try, if I continue to have issues i'll try to do some trouble shooting and post back with my findings.

Sorry it took so long to reply. I unplugged the isy and plugged it back in, still didn't work. I unplugged the plm and the isy, still didn't work. I then unplugged the isy again for 30 seconds and then it started working again, it has been able to communicate with the inline linc and the outdoor switch since then. Perhaps it was the waiting 30 seconds that worked.

I set up a 8 button keypad to control my kitchen light which has an inline linc connected to it. Its been working great for about 4 month, all of a sudden the motion detection 5 minute shutoff that I programmed wasn't working. I logged into my isy and it says it can't communicate with the inline linc, but the keypad still is able to turn the light on and off. I did querry and it found the light, but then when my motion sensor program to shut the light off after 5 minutes of no movement should have turned the light off, isy again said it can't communicate with the inline linc. I suppose I should also say that my isy cant communicate with my on/off outdoor module anymore either and this was working great for months as well. Again the 8 button remotelinc 2 keypad is still able to turn on and off the oudoor switch. How do I trouble shoot this?

I tried your suggestion, and while i got it to work by a simple if switch h is on, or if switch h is off, and inline linc is off, then inline linc on. and made a seperate program, if switch h is on, or if switch h is off, and inline linc is on, then inline linc off. It worked fine, but there is a delay when you push the button and it turns the light on or off, i suppose that's the nature of the signal going to isy, calculating the program, then spitting out the command over the network, where as a scene with a controller and responder just sends the command right over the network for faster response? I think i'll change it to a 4 scene, because i like the light coming on ASAP and so would my wife, and it will be easier for her to know, H is always on, and G is always off.

Well i guess for making this the most user friendly for my wife, i'll just change it to a 4 scene, so she doesn't have to think about it. "Did it blink green, or red", lol

I'm new to insteon and isy. I got my isy all set up, and have the kitchen light set up with a in-line-linc. I have a motion sensor and just got a mini remote. I had the kitchen light set to go on when the motion sensor sees motion, and then after the motion sensor stops seeing motion for 6 minutes it turns the light off. I want to add in the mini remote, and its set at 8 scene toggle. I created a scene called kitchen light, have the in-line-linc set up as the responder, button "H" as the controller. I made a program for if motion sensor is on, then nothing, else, turn the "kitchen light scene" off. The light only goes on now if you push the button on the remote, and will go off if you push the button again, or 6 minutes after no motion detected; however.... When you walk back into the room and push the button the led blinks red, then you have to push it again to turn the light on, and the led blinks green, even though the scene controller and responder are both in the "off" position. Is there a way to fix this, so that when the light goes off, i just have to push the button once to get it to turn on? I bet if i set it to 4 scene, and the H is for on, and g for off this will work, but i want to be able to use the other 7 buttons for more scenes, instead of limited to 4.
