  1. 2002SHL3 is an original X10 ONLY ApplianceLinc. Is a one way type. No power line transmitter in it to respond to things like a Status Request. It is not an Insteon Module. Your ISY controller can send X10 commands. So you maybe able to at least send it On Off and Dim commands.
  2. Some of the older hardware revision SwitchLinc Dimmers. Would flicker the load with power line traffic. Was corrected in the later hardware and I don't remember seeing any of the 2477D Dual Bands reported to flicker their load, but anything seem possible these days.
  3. The hardware version number found on the white sticker will not match the firmware revision your ISY Controller shows. Like my old 2456S3 ApplianceLincs hardware revision 1.3 modules. Have a v.28 firmware revision reported by My Lighting.
  4. Can you elaborate on your problem when using Java 7 Update 10? The 3.3.8 jnlp link works fine for me with Java 7 Update 10. This is with XP Pro SP3 and all patches.
  5. Installed with no problems. I have not seen anything out of the ordinary.
  6. Get a 2413S Dual Band PLM.
  7. That is what I thought. I actually tried an original RemoteLinc awhile back and it did seem to work. Though I am not too sure it was accurate.
  8. LeeG; I thought you had to use the RemoteLinc2 choice in the Link Management Tab. Though with all the latest firmware updates maybe other methods now work. Thanks for any added data you have.

  10. There is allot of good information on all kinds of lighting. On the Candle Power Forums. From home assembled lighting to tests and reviews of manufactured lighting. If you have not found them yet. You may want to give them a look. http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/for ... d-Lighting
  11. I would call the Insteon Gold Line Support and explain your findings. I feel you have a bad PLM and I think they will also agree. Slightly moving or tapping a PLM should not make the Green LED go On and Off. Along with the intermittent connections and results.
  12. You may want to look at the Kichler.com web site. http://www.kichler.com/consumer/home_pa ... reset=true It looks like they make LEDs in both 120 volt and external 24 volt power supply types. I found some interesting information in their on line catalog pages. http://www.kichler.com/consumer/request_catalog_page Seems their 120 volt LEDs have a limited dimming range with triac type dimmers. Like SwitchLinc Dimmers. 94% to 76%. Also some Dimmable LEDs make power line noise or have noise suppressor in then that can act like a signal sucker. I have used some dimmable LED light bulbs from Phillips, Sylvania, LSG and a few others with good results. On Insteon dimmers as a test. I started with CFLs so most of my in use Insteon devices are On/Off relay types.
  13. Did you clear the Java Cache? In the Help Tab. About Choice. Do both the UI and Firmware numbers show 3.3.7?
  14. If you have query at restart checked in the Configuration Tab. All the modules that are power line interfaced. Will be queried at power up for their status. RF devices will not. They are asleep as previously pointed out. My RemoteLincs buttons show no status after a power restoration until I activate their buttons.
  15. Wiki is back up and I just downloaded the file as a test.
  16. They are in the process of moving files to a new server. Files are going missing and then returning later. Wait a little while and try again.
  17. Seems to be back online and working for me.

    LED Spot Light

    I sure wish the forum would warn of another post as we are posting. Anyway LeeG beat me again. So some of this is a duplicate of data. Local Control Sensing Current can frequently cause low current loads like LED and some CFLs to pulse and flicker when the ApplianceLinc is Off. As a test for this put a small 4 watt incandescent night light on the output with the LED light. If it stops pulsing. It is the Local Control Sensing Circuit. Even when the ApplianceLinc has sensing set to Off. The current is still there and just ignored. A 33K Ohm one or more watt resistor can also be used to swamp the sensing current. If it is a hardware revision of 4.0 or higher. It also has a small amount of current through the snubber network, across the open relay contacts. The lower than 4.0 versions didn't have a snubber in them.
  19. Web site is down where the check for a newer version is done. A few others have also reported it. Including me. Ignore it until they can get the files back online.
  20. No probably not your side. Web site has a problem. That link is not working at the moment. I get the same error for the dashboard also. If you use its IP address from your web browser. You should be able to see it. Though you will get a automatic update failed message as its web address is also not working.
  21. Yes 3.3.7 is the latest and I just checked. The web site is still page not found.
  22. I believe there is a problem with the web site. Both Dashboard and the method 'd' access result in a Unable to Launch Application error. Access using the IP address gets me into my ISY994i but also shows a Auto Update Authorization Failure. Download links to the firmware result in a page not found error.

    UPS Suggestions

    I don't have an ELK in my case. I have the PLM on the AC wall supply and the ISY Power Supply and all the rest of the computing equipment on my UPS. As pointed out. The Insteon signals don't work with no power and will not pass through the AC input filtering found in most UPS units.
  24. I only have the demo version and never used it. I only posted what they said in the users manuals.
  25. Both get replaced. The one with the Load connection to the lights will control them. The other one is wired to Line and Neutral. With its load wire capped off and not used. Both are cross linked to each other. The ISY994i will do all the proper cross linking for you. Here is the multi-way diagram from the 2477D SwitchLinc Dimmer Full Users Manual. http://wiki.smarthome.com/index.php?tit ... ay_Circuit
