  1. Dual-band device repeat both power line and RF signals even if the signal they receive is only RF or only power line.
  2. I can't imagine Genie having a device that disabled the button or any remote in order to facilitate a dry contact.
  3. I'm not sure what an NGX wall console is, but if you have one, then yes, the device you linked to connects to the wall console and the I/O Linc NO and Com terminals.
  4. The log is a good resource, but you don't need to drop everything. Just make note of the time and search the log for what occurred at or around the noted time when you are able.
  5. If you set the ramp rate to 9 min, then the actual ramp rate is 0.1 sec. That's because the maximum ramp rate for Insteon devices is 8 min, not 9. The 9 min ramp rate is included because the very earliest Insteon dimmers did have that ability.
  6. Starting a business is more that just having an idea. Here's a link to get you started
  7. Which specific thermostats are you having difficulty with?

    Apple holds reign over anything involving HomeKit.
  9. Yes, X10 devices can be a problem. Each HA device absorbs some of the signal, that includes both Insteon and X10, each absorbing both signals. But, Insteon power line devices repeat the signal, X10 modules do not.
  10. Is the a difficulty with this simple program?
  11. Without a backup, the process is to recreate what's missing. BTW, my experience is that, although tedious, the recreation is better than the original
  12. If Control 'manual controller' is switched On and Control 'manual controller' is not switched off Then disable schedule program Else enable schedule program The statement in blue causes the Else statement to execute when the device is manually switched off.
  13. You are correct. The on-level is the level of the load, not the button. For any on-level the button is illuminated, but for Off the button should be unlit.
  14. Create a scene that contains only the Off button. Write a program to turn off the button If Status 'FanLinc Motor' is switched Off Then Set Scene 'Fan Off Button' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
  15. Highlight the KPL, select Buttons Toggle Mode Toggle On/Off. Set the desired button to Non-Toggle-Off.
  16. It's as you surmised, the number of fans is inconsequential, just as the number of bulbs in a fixture/chandelier. It's the total load that matters. Also be aware that starting a motor draws more current than running one. An overrating factor of 1.5-2X is usually appropriate.

    Anytime an Insteon device controls or responds to one or more other Insteon devices a scene is appropriate and preferred. If a condition is involved, then a program is required. Programs can control scenes as well as individual devices.
  18. Anyone can delete their own post. Only the original post has restrictions if someone replies.
  19. If someone responds to the original post, then it can't be deleted.
  20. Any Insteon controller can be used as one of the devices in a 3-way configuration as long as only one controller is connected to the load.

    Left, right, top, bottom, front, rear. The list is endless, so may as well add middle
  22. Save the battery and flail every 30 seconds is the other choice
  23. Try checking "As motion is sensed" in Options
  24. Good catch. The original Beta test was mid-June, 2015 http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/16272-introducing-isyportal/
