It won't work. A transformer transforms the voltage, but not the frequency. The PLM will power supply is designed for 60Hz and will overheat (and eventually self-destroy) at 50Hz. It may also interfere with power line signals due to the timing, which can overcome the weaker RF signals.. Too, you place yourself at risk broadcasting an unauthorized frequency. In the unlikely, but possible chance that you interfere with other RF equipment in your country, you will likely be fined and your devices confiscated. You may even be jailed.

WRONG!!! One load from the Open/Close Module connects to the fan low speed. The other load from the Open/Close Module connects to the Wht/Blk wire of the RIBU1C (coil) and to the Yel Comm of the RIBU1C (relay). Connect neutral to Wht/Yel Comm of the RIBU1C (coil). Connect Org N/O of the RIBU1C (relay) to the fan high speed. Cap separately the unused RIBU1C wires. WRONG!!! See post #22

WRONG!!! This may be a little clearer: WRONG!!! See post #22

WRONG!!! You'll need a relay with a 110/120VAC coil with contacts rated for 5 amps or more (rated for a motor). View only the top left diagram. One side of the coil connects to neutral, the other side connects to one load of the Micro Open/Close Module. Because it's AC which is line and which is neutral doesn't matter, but the relay may be labelled. Line connects to A and load connects to B. WRONG!!! See post #22

You may need a relay (or two) which would be powered by the Open/Close Module. The relay(s) should not be HA relays, so the only way to power them is via the Micro Module which is incapable of powering both at the same time.
-
Post the programs. -
The specs on the Micro Module appear adequate. (sorry about deleting my post).
-
Two on power supplies, one on batteries. The battery powered one is not as reliable. And, yes, they're linked to the iSY.
-
I've got three that do.
-
Only a SPDT device can ensure that both line are not energized concurrently. A program depends on the ISY and/or PLM being functional. A SPDT device does not.
-
I'd never rely on two separate devices to control loads that cannot/should not be energized at the same time and especially not a program. A program is useless if at any time the ISY or PLM fails or is off-line. An Open/Close Micro Module behaves as a SPDT switch.
-
Sometimes moving On helps. Try "Alexa, turn X on," or "Alexa, tun on X."
-
The thermostat needs to be in any mode but off. If it's off, then you need to turn it on. You can do that manually or vocally.
-
And you're avoiding saying "thermostat" altogether? I just use, "Alexa, set bedroom to 75." The thermostat must already be on.
-
Yes. Avoid using "thermostat" in the name.
-
Select the scene. Verify each button overall. Select each individual device in the scene. Verify each setting. Set the speed buttons (from the KeypadLinc) to be non-toggle On. You also need and off scene.
-
Another solution is to install a Micro Module dimmer in the fixture box. That allows you to use nearly any bulb. You'll need to change some connections in the fixture box to provide line and neutral at the switch box.
-
I just ask Alexa to set the thermostat_name to X, no need to include "thermostat." temperature," "degrees," or any other modifier.
-
The state of the button LED is actually controlled by the sensor, not the relay. You'll need to create a scene that contains the button LED only and control the scene using the relay as a program trigger.
-
On/Off will run on Then/Else, respectively. Those commands will not run conditions.
-
If you're using buttons A, B, C, and D for the fan, then the light should not be affected at all. Post a fan speed scene.
-
How do you log in to the camera? Are you using the camera's service or something else? How do you log in to the ISY? Do you have a service? Are you using your the address your ISP provided? Is that address static? Have you ever been able to access the ISY remotely? Do you have a portal?
-
You can set an alarm for 3PM. Then you only need to ask Alexa how much time is left. Far from ideal, but, minimally, accomplishes the task.
