I changed the system setting. I think this worked. Thanks Javi. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I do not see the dot until I click into the program, then back to favorites, then I am able to run the program. At first I see grey program icons. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hello, I have a simple program to dim lights so that we can watch a movie. In the ID Mobile app, in put the program in favorites. I pick on it, it takes me to a status page, then if I go back the favorites, the icon changes and I can then activate the program. This two step process should be easier. What can I do?

The preorder site says there is discounts for membership. What is the benefit? I don’t know if I got it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve been thinking about buying a Polisy or Polisy Pro. Does this supersede Polisy? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh, I see. The KISS principle (keep it simple). I can remove the query of the lights as a trouble shooting step. My only reason for adding them is so that I can then turn all lights off except one (30%) for safety. It then turns itself off after a period of time. I'll give this a try this evening. Thx.

I did have parenthesis previously and it did not seem to help. Here is what I think it should be to group all the lights in one big "or" condition. I am at work so this is from memory, not cut and paste from the program. The reason I do not remove the "or status" for all the lights is that I want the ISY to do something if she leaves any of the lights on, or dimmed (not off). I could change this to a status "on" query. The reason I use a time of day condition is that I want normal operation when we are using the rooms during the day. My wife would be annoyed if she is reading a book and the lights turn off on her.

I am trying to write a program to turn of lights if my daughter leaves them on in the middle of the night. My problem is that the program status is always "true" and runs no matter is the motion sensor is on or off. I've tried setting the motion sensor to "is not on". No difference. Motion sensor settings are below.

I would like to dim some lights and turn others off when ready to watch a movie, I have set up two scenes, one for lights to be dimmed, other for lights to be off. I then wrote a small programs with no "If", but the "then" runs the two scenes. One problem is that I set the device on state to 45% for the lights remaining on. Now, when other schenes turn on these lights, they only turn on the 45% brightness. Can I tell the device in the program what brightness to go to?

Ok, that worked just fine. Once I finish buying enough switches, this will be real cool. When my kids leave lights on downstairs, I'll be able to turn them off without leaving my room. I just ordered 4 more switches from Smarthome. Some each paycheck for a while.

Thanks LeeG, I'll give that a try. It is confusing to hear that a device can be a controller in one sceen, yet a responder in another.

To have one switch control the other, and visa versa, don't they each need to be a controller of the other? If I make them both a responder, the 3 way option will not work, right? 1st priority is that my wife can use them as before I changed to these fancy switches. My automation sceens are a secondary goal.

I have 3 way lights in my house, like those you would find at the top and bottom of a staiwell. I replaced them with insteon dimmers. Each is a controller and a responder to each other. They act as the 3 way swiches they replaced. I have a scene called "entry light" that is used to control both switches/devices. I would like to create a scene to turn off all the lights downstairs. When I tried to put the 3 way configured switches into the all of scene. I would not do it. It says that 30.BA.D4. is already a controller for 33.B6.A8.1, would you like to make it a responder (NO)? Aslo says It says that 33.B6.A8.1 is already a controller for 30.BA.D4.1, would you like to make it a responder? How can I turn off all lights, even those already in scenes or have controller/responder relationships??

Done. I also added the sunrise/sunset condition.
