You need to do a soft-reset on the SwitchLinc before it will activate the new ramp rate you programmed. Once you program the rate, pop out the plastic tab at the bottom of the paddle for 5 seconds, then gently push it back in. Don't press it down, just return it to it's original position.

Thanks! I just saw another thread that discussed it. Should have searched before posting.

I have a wireless X10 motion that I'd like to use for my driveway lights. The motion sensor will send X10 B1 ON when it is dark outside and motion is detected. It will send X10 B1 OFF when no motion is detected for 1 minute, but I'm ignoring the OFF command. I created a program to do the following: If X10 'B1/On (3)' is Received And Status 'FoyerControls1A-Driveway' is Off Then Set Scene 'Driveway' On Wait 5 minutes Set Scene 'Driveway' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') I included the "And Status 'FoyerControls1A-Driveway' is Off" because I don't want this program to run if the driveway lights are already on. The program runs when motion is detected, the driveway lights go on, but the program then ends and the lights never go off. I believe this is because once the lights go on, the 2nd IF statement is no longer true. Is this correct? If so, can anyone think of a way around this? Thanks!!!

I've actually taken my Elk M1 out of the box and put it on my workbench. Big first step towards setting this thing up!! If only we didn't need to sleep, I might have time for all this stuff...

Does it still bring up the username/password login? If not, try clicking this link to fix it: http://www.universal-devices.com/MyInsteonISY

For the record, I have several Insteon devices behind GFI outlets, including my ISY-26 (w/PLM) and haven't had any issues. Although I think I've heard 1 or 2 people say GFI has been an issue for them, I think it's a rarity.

Mine seems OK, but I haven't played much. Just loaded it up, and left it. Logged in a couple times to do simple things (created a new scene). My timers are still running.

I'd also love to see a counter in the ISY-26 so us current ISY-26 users know where we stand. Thanks!

While I find Insteon a lot more resilient than X10 as far as handling noisey powerlines, it is still susceptible - especially if the source of your noise is right next to the PLM. It could be your PC itself causing noise. Have you thought of simply adding a FilterLinc to your PC equipment?

Glad to hear, can't wait to try it out. It's only happened 2 or 3 times for me, so it has been very infrequent and not reproducable.

Can't we telnet over IP?

I had this issue with a previous update, but after a period of time the new version kicked in. When I had the issue, I believe closing and re-starting IE brought the new version in. Since you've rebooted already, I would try clearing out your internet temporary files to see if that helps. The HELP, ABOUT shows the correct version because it's querying the device itself. The problem is that IE has cached the old interface program and that's what you're seeing. IE hasn't gotten the updated interface from the ISY-26 yet.

I think he wants a scenario where, say, his security system alarm goes off for some reason. When it does, the ISY-26 would turn on all lights in the home. Once the alarm is de-activated, he wants the lights to turn back to their previous states (not all off).

Hey Chris - For the record, per my emails to you I've seen a 00:00:00 bug as well. However, I'm not referencing any programs within my programs. Different issue? Thanks

My PLM is definitely FIRM52, and my X10 definitely died for a period of time. Is this OK to use with the ISY-26?

The PLM on my ISY-26 is labeled: 2807Rev2.4 FIRM52 I thought the 4A firmware was only for separate sale/use, not with the ISY-26? Did the ISY-26 ever ship with 4A PLMs?

Funny - I just read this post and went to try your suggestion, and X10 is currently working. Any idea if this is a known issue SmartHome is working on? Do you suggest I swap out my PLM? Should I wait for a newer rev? Thanks

I don't believe I am experiencing any kind of signal strength issues. Hey Chris - I tested by plugging an IR bridge into the same outlet as the PLM. When sending an X10 signal, the PLM flashes, but the ISY-26 does not. Please let me know if there's anything I can try here, or do you think I may have a bad PLM? Thanks

OK... this is weird. After days of X10 working flawlessly, my ISY-26 is suddently not getting any X10 signals. I noticed it first with the RF remotes and motion sensor. I also tried plugging in my IR bridge right at the PLM and using the hard buttons to send X10 signals to the PLM/ISY-26 and the triggers aren't running at all. Almost like some portion of the ISY-26 or PLM is simply dead and not receiving the X10 signals. I've powered off and back on all devices, with the same results. Any suggestions??

I've had no LampLinc, ApplianceLincs, or Icon Lamp/Appliance Modules go bad...

I think either is fine. If it saves some memory in the ISY-26, I would certainly go with Program A. Or, maybe something like this would be a bit easier to read: If ( X10 'A.1.3(On)' is Received Or X10 'A.2.3(On)' is Received Or Control 'Keypad' is switched On ) And X10 A.1.11(Off) is not Received And X10 A.2.11(Off) is not Received And Control 'Keypad' is not switched Fast On Then Send X10 'C.4.3(On)' Set '0A.B9.44.1' On Else Set '0A.B9.44.1' Off Send X10 'C.4.11(Off)'

I don't have a 'vacation' button setup, though it's in my plans. What about that other vacation button thread? Where it was suggested to create a folder and use 'CONTROL' to determine whether or not the contained programs run? Could he eliminate the 'away' check in this program, and put it in the folder instead? And have the program itself simply check the time?

Maybe I'm wrong, but wouldn't that program require you to PRESS that KPL button at PRECISELY 3:39:00pm?

Thanks for the explanation. I'll stick with sending the level to each individual switch.

I'd like to setup a trigger that dims an entire scene (basically a 3-way circuit) to a particular level, but the only options seem to be ON or OFF. Is there a way around this, or do I need to dim each switch individually in the action? Thanks!!
