Hi Guys,
I've searched the forums for anything like this, but I can't seem to find it. What I currently have set up is a 8-button KPL with a large (2 buttons) ALL ON button in the C and D spot and a large ALL OFF button in the E and F spot. I created a single scene that has a bunch of different responders (from another KPL and other switches) and 5 controllers (C, D, E, F and a SLD that acts as an all-on all-off as well). I set C and D to non-toggle on and E and F to non-toggle off. When selecting the controllers (C, D, E, F or SLD) in the scene tree I set all other secondary buttons to be on or off depending on which button was pressed (e.g., select C from the tree, on the right set the sliders for D, E, F to 0% and others in the scene to 100% as necessary - same for D; for E and F set all to 0%).
The behavior I expect:
- When pressing either C or D, the "half" of the big button that was pressed would blink a couple of times and turn everything on
- When pressing either E or F, the "half" of the big button that was pressed would blink a couple of times and turn everything off
- Pressing on on the SLD would light everything up leaving the ALL ON and ALL OFF buttons off completely
The behavior I see:
- When pressing either C or D, the "half" of the big button that was pressed turns everything on correctly but leaves the button that was pressed in the on state
- When pressing either E or F, the "half" of the big button that was pressed turns everything off correctly but leaves the button that was pressed in the on state
- Pressing on on the SLD does light everything up leaving the ALL ON and ALL OFF buttons off completely (works correctly)
When I look at the Button Grouping setup for the KPL it says that C, D, E, and F have been set up as mutally exclusive, which would explain the behavior I'm seeing. However, I thought that to make such a setup one used multiple scenes with one controller in each and the rest as responders (with the responders set to 0%). My question would then be how do I keep the back lights on C, D, E and F off all the time and just have them blink a few times when pressed? Would I get this behavior if I changed the KPL to a 6-button type with the ALL ON and ALL OFF at the top and bottom, respectively? I have a 994i. Thanks.
