If I follow, you are saying that HDS v.43 sends an 'On' (all is good) and HDS v.44 sends an 'Off' (all is good).

I am finally getting around to adding heartbeat programs to my ISY. I have 6 hidden door sensors. All have fresh batteries. ISY was rebooted over 3 days ago and no heartbeat status on 3 of the HDS. After a closer look... all HDS V.43 are reporting 'on' heartbeat status and all HDS V.44 are reporting 'off' ?? Is this a bug or V.44 not supported for heartbeat?

After a device restore from ISY... it now works !?! I find that strange considering a factory reset on KPL, but it is now all good. Thanks!

V 4.6.2 for both UI and Firmware The KPL is and has always been an 8 Button KPL. ISY thinks it is (2334-2) KeypadLinc Dimmer 8 Button v.43

It had been some time since I refreshed my ISY and thought I'd factory reset ISY and Insteon devices. I have a KPL 8 Button that had no problem adding back to ISY. All buttons work normally, meaning I press the button and the LED lights up. However, when looking at ISY, Buttons E-H do not register as being on? In short, buttons E-H do light up when pressed, but ISY current state never goes to on? Buttons A-D work normally.... lost on how to troubleshoot this issue? Bad KPL?

Sent a screen shot of looking at the MorningLinc device in the Admin GUI

If I follow these steps: - Pulled MorningLinc from outlet. Waited 10 seconds. While holding down set button, plug back in. The LED will stay off until you let go (I held it for 20 seconds) and then the LED will come on (no factory reset). If I: - Pull MorningLinc from outlet. Wait 10 seconds. While holding down set button, plug back in. The LED will stay off until you let go (I held it for 20 seconds and let it go). Press and hold the set button (LED flashes fast, slow, etc.). I let the button go after the LED went solid again. Factory reset worked I assume cause the lock is no longer controlled by the MorningLinc. I re-link the doorset with no issues. Pressing set button locks and unlocks door. Next, I try to add the MorningLinc to ISY. Using the 'Start Linking' method (choosing option 3) and pressing the set button. ISY never pops up with found device. Tried Double-tap, single you name it. Nothing. Next, tried to 'New Insteon Device'. Selected option 3 and enter name and address and select MorningLinc device (not auto-discover). It proceeds to read and fully completes process with no errors. This is why I thought problem solved before... however, the controls in ISY to lock and unlock door are still missing? I am running the Alpha 5.0, not sure if that may be the issue?

Mine is also v.42

On the back I have 2 lables: 2458A1 and Rev 1.2 1310

Hey Guys- I've been so busy lately, I haven't had time to reply to this, but I think I have the same MorningLinc as eduardo. I thought the issue was resolved for me, but not so. I get the same thing when trying to factory reset the MorningLinc. Plugging in unit while pressing the set button for 1 minute (any amount of time) does not work. I am still able to control lockset, so that tells me that a factory reset never takes place. So it really boils down to why the MorningLinc is not doing a factory reset?

Worked like a charm... thanks LeeG

When I upgraded my ISY to Alpha Version 5, I decided to start fresh on my home automation network. Been quite a while since I added the MorningLinc to ISY, but when I did, I forgot this... Select the third option 'Add devices found in links and keep existing links'. If you select 'Remove existing links' it removes all links from the MorningLinc and due to the security measures on the MorningLinc the PLM can no longer send commands to it. So now the MorningLinc is added, but I cannot do anything with it. How to correct this? Do I link it with the PLM using the 'set' button on the PLM first?

That will work ! A couple of days ago I removed a variable that I thought was no longer needed... days later I remember it's purpose... using the Find feature will prevent this mistake again. Thanks!

Not sure if this has been asked before, but couldn't locate it.... Is there a way to identify where a variable is being used? or Device? or Program? For example, if I have a variable that I'm not sure where it is being used, how do I locate? If I had a Device that I wanted to remove.... how do I locate all programs it is being used in? etc.

This is the only way I know of to get the current temp to variable. One program for each temp or maybe break up into temp ranges, like temp between 85-90 and set $i.tstat to 87.5 (or something like that). If Status 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' is 90° (Temperature) Then $i.tstat = 90 Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

Not sure if it is a typo on your post or in your program but you need to alter... Or Status 'Thermostat - Main' < 60° (Temperature)

I do what EricK is stating... Using a Insteon LED bulb I would create a scene called 'Living Room Lamp- LED Bulb' and add the KPL Button B as controller and LED Bulb as responder. I would create a Scene called 'Living Room Lamp-KPL Button B' and put only the KPL Button B in it. Create program: If Status 'Living Room LED Bulb' is not Off Then Set Scene 'Living Room Lamp-KPL Button B' On Else Set Scene 'Living Room Lamp-KPL Button B' Off This way, if the Lamp on/off status is changed by another program or mobile device, the LED responds correctly. It won't go in a loop because only the KPL button is in Scene 'Living Room Lamp-KPL Button B' -- it is only a toggle for the KPL LED backlight.

Two more I should include, as I use these to let me know the current status of HVAC in all my other programs... HVAC Unit Mode- Status Off If Status 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' is Mode Off Then - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') HVAC Unit Mode- Status On If Status 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' is Mode Auto Then - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') I use these and check if programs are 'True' or 'False'

For starters, I have these programs that are DISABLED: Set Unit Mode- Auto If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Set 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' Mode Auto Set 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' Fan Auto Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Set Unit Mode- Off If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Set 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' Mode Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Set Unit Setpoints (Set temps to what works for you) If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Set 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' Mode Auto Set 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' Fan Auto Set 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' 76° (Cool Setpoint) Set 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' 68° (Heat Setpoint) Else Set 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' Mode Auto Set 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' Fan Auto Set 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' 79° (Cool Setpoint) Set 'Hallway 01 / Thermostat- Main' 65° (Heat Setpoint) I program a KPL button to allow Auto or Manual control of HVAC- These are ENABLED. HVAC Control- Auto If Status 'Family Room / Track Lights- KeypadLinc / Manual HVAC- KeypadLinc' is Off Or Control 'Family Room / Track Lights- KeypadLinc / Manual HVAC- KeypadLinc' is switched Off Then Set Scene 'Family Room / Manual HVAC' Off Enable Program 'HVAC Update Away' Enable Program 'HVAC Update Home 01' Run Program 'Set Unit Mode- Auto' (Then Path) Wait 5 seconds Run Program 'HVAC Control- Get Schedule State' (If) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') HVAC Control- Manual If Status 'Family Room / Track Lights- KeypadLinc / Manual HVAC- KeypadLinc' is not Off Or Control 'Family Room / Track Lights- KeypadLinc / Manual HVAC- KeypadLinc' is switched On Then Set Scene 'Family Room / Manual HVAC' On Disable Program 'HVAC Update Away' Disable Program 'HVAC Update Home 01' Run Program 'Set Unit Mode- Off' (Then Path) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') HVAC Control- Get Schedule State If $Current_Schedule_State is 0 Then Run Program 'Set Unit Setpoints' (Else Path) Else Run Program 'Set Unit Setpoints' (Then Path) I have not listed a couple of programs here because it connects to many other programs regarding my 'Home Mode' (Home, Away, Home- Stay), 'Schedule State' (Home or Away).... etc, but this might get you going on other ideas on how to control.

Not sure how to handle the Hidden Door Sensor when it comes to rebooting the ISY or power loss. Once the ISY comes back online, the Hidden Door Sensor doesn't get a 'Current State' .... I assume it defaults to 'off'? I have a program that keeps track of the door status and every time I reboot the ISY, this program goes true. This is an issue, as other things happen because it thinks the bathroom door is closed. I also assume because it is battery powered, a status update is not sent until door is opened or closed, then things self correct, but I'd prefer not to have lights and exhaust fan come on at all after power failure or reboot. If Status 'Bath 02 - Door Sensor' is Off Then - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') This program is true if door closed, otherwise false if door is open.

I have changed the program to 'held' and removed- And Status 'Family Room / Table Lamps' is not Off After that, I was able to get things to work correctly.... Thanks!

I copied the programs from this forum or wiki and they don't work as I expected them too. The first program works great - it turns on the lamp when I press the associated button on my Harmony remote: If IR 'IR_002' is Pressed And Status 'Family Room / Table Lamps' is Off Then Set Scene 'Family Room / Family Room Table Lamps' On Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Second program works, but then the issue: If IR 'IR_002' is Double Pressed And Status 'Family Room / Table Lamps' is not Off Then Set Scene 'Family Room / Family Room Table Lamps' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') What happens is that the lamp goes off, but then 1-2 seconds later, the lamp light comes back on? Hoping someone could tell me why that is so?

I have configured an 8 button RemoteLinc 2 to open my garage door. Configured as 8 scene non-toggle. At present, only configured button A to the Garage door. Sometimes, if I press button A to open or close the door, after about 2-3 seconds, the door will stop opening or closing and reverse operation. Not sure why this is happening? Is the RemoteLinc 2 sending multiple on commands to the Door relay?

I'm okay with connecting to admin console using http://ipaddress/admin. Not sure why it wouldn't work by dns name. I have never seen Windows 7 block anything when the firewall has been disabled, no anti-virus, no ipsec, vpn or other third party firewall installed. No worries, as long as there is a solution

Initial testing for me is good too - http://ipaddress/admin works fine, no multiple logins.
