  1. Thanks for the input. Like I previously mentioned, I'm new to this and appreciate constructive criticism.
  2. I agree that the FanLincs are sub-quality, but back to my set up. My outdoor fan is meant to work with a manual dimmer, which adjusts the voltage of the load sent to the fan, which determines the fan speed. Why is an Insteon InLine dimmer any different? My 6 button WallPlate’s load is wired to the Fan’s light and controls it perfectly. The four middle buttons on the WallPlate represent; Hi, Med, Low, & Off settings for the fan speed. I have a scene setup for each of the four speeds, and the scenes include the InLine dimmer at different speeds (voltages across the load line). Obviously, the load wire from the InLine dimmer is connected to the Fan’s power line. This has worked flawlessly for 6 months.
  3. Thanks for the feedback. Should I assume that if my fan is not FanLinc compatible, I can't control it with an Insteon solution? Thanks
  4. I'm a beginner, so I expect some criticism regarding MY work around. My outdoor fan would not work with two separate FanLinks. I have a two gang box, so I put a 2334-2 (5-button KeypadLink) on one side and a 2475DA1 (InLineLinc Dimmer) on the other with a cover plate. The InLine dimmer is wired directly to the fan. I use the four middle buttons on the KeyPad to control the fan speed via the InLine dimmer. Hi -- Dimmer 100% Med - Dimmer 60% Low - Dimmer - 30% Off - Dimmer 0%. This has worked well for me but I'm not sure if it follows "best practices." I'm still learning!
  5. Thanks for the quick response!
  6. Hi everyone! First, I did research this before asking and was unable to find an answer. I have a 2477S (On/Off switch) that I want to replace with a 2477D (Dimmer switch). I have found the replace option, but it only offers 2477S options, not the 2477D that I need. Is the a way to add the dimmer switch to my ISY configuration with the on/off switch links that already exist? Thanks
