Have you checked your event viewer for excessive program action? The only time I have heard of programs not working is when some tight loop is executing and totally bogging down the ISY logic engine. Usually a constant busy box would be displayed on the admin console screen but the event viewer may show heavy traffic. Again Post a program that doesn't trigger so others can look at it.

I haven't followed all your logic through. It is too twisted and spaghetti bowl for me (I wouldn't use program true/false logic) but... You are trying to operate devices On and off at the same time without any delays. This can, and usually, results in a race netting random results. The processing logic order, inside ISY, is not clearly defined to the programmer, and no guarantee of order will happen. You have separated your If sections and your Then sections into different programs. I see no reason for that. You have Wait on the last line of programs. Then there is no following line. You are waiting for nothing to follow.

Strange!I had another one today where the light responded immediately and the "OK" came from 45 to 60 seconds later. I assume you have tried to factory reset the receptacle?
-
I have thought there was a previous thread regarding this that the IOLinc could not be included in scenes for one part or the other??? The only usage I can see is to extend the remote control of the garage door opener without any programs. Seems strange to me. Perhaps a good next step would be to request a photo of th e terminal wiring?

I was counting Teken's words. It twern't no rant! I hope that wasn't a typo just before the emoji.
-
Post your programs controlling the door. You mentioned after a power outage and this makes the program suspect after ISY reboot.
-
Just another cloud service that can suddenly take minutes or respond. I have one dot that seems to have poor comms with my router and it sometimes decidee to just stop reponding in the middle of a sentence or takes 30 seconds to turn off a light, at times. They will update the system with more hardware and then everything will be like new for a few months, again.

On AC the 2441ZTH only report humidity faster Nothing else changes.

All that and Scotty hasn't even got out of bed yet. emoji6976, emoji10567...whatever

This has been a fine example of network data collisions, exemplified by a forum analogue. Who the heck is emoji35, emoji13?

The Tags are much easier and cheaper to set up and have native charting provided for them and the CAO Reed Tag takes a 1-wire sensor to accommodate the possible heat with the Tag mounted in a cooler space. Just fasten a DS18B20 to a truss or "...beam me up Scotty!" Ohhh you thought I was talking to you? OP walks away shaking his head, never to come back again...

If it never gets that hot in a person's attic, why did you spend the money to install an attic fan? also Attics shouldn't get hot enough to destroy electronics after a properly running attic ventilator is functioning. What happens when it fails? Do we now replace both? You can't make a claim that attics never get hot enough to ruin electronics based on your own attic with a ventilation fan running for a reason.

It would be much easier to us the double tap up and down to control the other light. To achieve #2 you would double tap up and then down. To achieve #4 ...you wouldn't. Tapping up to turn lights off would break the normal habits and confuse people, lowering the WAF. But, as a logic problem.... Create four scenes...one for each scenario...on/on...on/off...off/on...off/off Create four programs, one to operate each scenario..each with a trigger for a state variable = 0, 1, 2, 3. You may require a Wait 1 second for the On turns it Off programs. Then use a program like this to rotate the state variable through all possible values. If ....SwitchLinc is switched On ...AND ...$sVariable < 3 Then ...$sVariable += 1 Else ...$sVariable = 0
-
Very strange. Let's satisfy both arguments with a DS18B20 1-wire sensor into the provided input on the bottom of the CAO Reed Tag see post #5. There is a reason the OP and you have installed a ventilation fan in your attic. There is also a reason some placed electronics in their cooled attic space to monitor it. BTW: your momma looked OK to me.
-
I hope you realise that ISY is an event triggered processing engine. You do not need to constantly cycle through testing the temperature. Every time the temperature reading changes, your program will be invoked, triggered and the appropriate Then or Else run, by itself.
-
Factory reset your IOLink and then restore it from ISY admin console.
-
Was that the last temperature recorded? I had three of these 120 vac, 2200 cfm attic fans burn out in the heat in my past home. They overheat up there. You must be using the "other" sun. Maybe you can keep the sensor close to the incoming air and get lower readings.

Alexa! Turn off All Lights!

I don't know Gary. I tried to make everything work here. My wife said, "I'm retired. You go get a job, instead!' but.... the latest WAF is "Alexa. Turn on the Christmas Tree"

Yeah the logic can get very complex and you can actually lose strands of hair on your head. I have some logic I stumble on every time I read it again but I know it works and I have worked it out with paper logic, but still it looks wrong. The triggers can stretch the strict boolean algebra also with their double purpose, conditional and trigger, from the same statement. oberkc's logic was my first thought also, but I was just lucky with a sudden idea. I'll brag once you prove it valid, but if it doesn't work...I was never here!

You'll like it. It obsoletes wall panel touch screens, mini-remotes, and many other remote inputs for most applications, except where you have a room full of people talking and you want to demostrate. It will make an *** out you every time with a room full of chatty people and it's severe ADHD.
-
You should be able to combine the conditions into one program...I think. As long as you use time frames. Other event triggers are never true unless they are the centre of attention, so will not work with AND. If ...from sunset -30 minutes ...to sunrise next day (thanks Stu) AND ...from 5:00 PM ...to sunrise next day then ...turn lights on ...wait 12 hours ... run else below else ... turn the lights Off

Make sure you have factory reset the beast before anything to do with ISY linking. Factory. You will have to have it close to a dual band Insteon device and in the linking mode. Then take it out if linking mode when done. Make sure you reboot admin console as it can time out with no indication except no updates for anything, without any warning.
-
In conjunction with Paul's comments above... That is what scenes are for. This is how it was done before ISY intelligence came along. Each Insteon device can hold about 250 different scenes. I have a scene that contains all my lights as well as my back doorbell. For an alarm almost every light in my house, and wrap around desks, flashes on and off as well as 4 beepers and my back doorbell. Simple....just turn scene On Wait 2 seconds, turn scene off. I have two other scenes, one for all upstairs and one for all downstairs. If they ever get messed up...just right click the device and select Restore. ISY reigns supreme again.
