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.

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.

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.

Yes 3.3.7 is the latest and I just checked. The web site is still page not found.

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.

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.

I only have the demo version and never used it. I only posted what they said in the users manuals.

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

Too bad Light Show Master is gone. It could do up to 20 commands a second. If you had good communications and could use its set Hop Count to 0. With a PLM.

I have also seen Smarthome and Smartlabs stick their head in the sand and blame everyone else for their problems.

Most likely a electronics failure. If you decide to take the cover off. Look at D3, 30 volt zener. A common part that burns up or gets the board hot enough to unsolder itself.

Are you running any Antivirus or Firewall programs? There are a few that can cause problems. I know on my Zone Alarm Setup. I had to add the IP address of my ISY994i to the Trusted Zone.

One difference when using a dimmable LED bulb on a Insteon or any other brand dimmer switch. LED bulbs electronics when turned On have a brief high current In-Rush current and a repetitive peek current as the AC wave changes polarity. Many LED bulb manufacturers give you the equivalent to an incandescent bulb wattage for calculating the number of bulbs on a dimmer or specify how many you can use on a dimmer. Like my Phillips 12.5 EnduraLED watt 60 watt equivalent LED bulbs indicate use 80 watt as your calculating factor. With a 600 watt dimmer. You can take the wattage of the incandescent bulbs and add them up. So on a 600 watt dimmer with 60 watt incandescent bulbs. I can use 10 bulbs 600/60=10 With my EnduraLED bulbs. I use a math factor of 80 watts. So on a 600 watt dimmer I can use 7 of them. 600/80=7.5. Even though they actually are using 87.5 watts.

What is the firmware revision used by your ISY Controller? Help tab About Choice. Revision number should be there and both the User Interface and Firmware versions should be the same.

I saw a review of the Switch Lighting Bulb in the CPF Forums. http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/sho ... deo-Review http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/sho ... ight-bulbs They are a very recent product release and was delayed for a fairly long time. I had signed up a year or more ago for their email updates on their line of bulbs. I am using the Phillips EnduraLED and Lighting Science Group Definity LED bulbs with Insteon devices. Since I have moved from CFLs to LED bulbs. Most of my Insteon devices where of a relay type. I have tested the dimmable LED bulbs on Insteon dimmer type devices and most worked very well. The 60 watt ones are a bit on the pricey side. $49.99 was what I saw. The Sylvania, Philips, LSG and a few other brands are getting much more reasonable.

The shorting out the LCD display has been reported before. It gets its power through the same two wires used to control it. You can rewire the I/OLinc and solder it to the internal push button inside the display that opens and closes it. Others have purchased a extra remote and soldered the I/OLInc relay output to the button inside the remote.

I know others have used an I/OLinc and a Piezo Sounder. The relay Output set to a monetary closure in a EZIO2x4, could be used to do the same thing. viewtopic.php?f=27&t=9846&hilit=Sounder Few points. If you use the +5 volt supply in the EZIO2x4. It is rated at 20mA. So you would have to consider that in selecting a sounder. To set the relay to momentary and to the time in seconds you wanted. The Simplehomenet Utility maybe needed.

Access Points do not link to anything. The set button on them starts the communications tests with the four tap sequence. Users manual has details on how this test works. If you have not verified proper phase coupling and communications. I suggest you do the tests with the Access Points.

Mine run even with the computer Off. Everything runs from the ISY controller.

Press release from Smartlabs in early 2012. Said three phase now supported. http://www.smarthome.com/pr12-02.html

Where did you see an ISY994i and a 2412S bundled? The 2412S has been discontinued for a long time now. The 2413S Dual Band PLM is the present one being used. Since it does not provide power to the ISY994i an external power supply is used. My ISY994i had a power supply in the kit.

Did you add the replacements as a new device and then use the replace function to remove the old one and add the replacement in its place? I believe that should remove all the old references to the removed device.

The SM120X modules installation manual. Indicates it will work with the smoke detection part of the KN-COSM-IB but not on a CO detection. Unfortunately it does no indicate what the Interconnect signal is including its voltage. The CO120X is for CO detector interfacing.

I thought we where talking about an I/OLinc. I missed the part of your post where you where thinking about a InlineLinc with Sense. With only the Black, White and Red connected and the alarms sounding. Maybe the SM120X is bad. Do you know what the Red Interconnect System wire reads normally?

When you connect the Black to Line, White to Neutral and Red to Interconnect signaling. The smoke alarms start sounding? I found a diagram. Do NOT connect the Blue {Relay Common} to the Line connection. The diagram shows it connected so it can activate a 120 volt device. With an I/OLinc putting the 120 volts on the sensor input will fry the I/OLinc. Just connect the Blue {Relay Common} to the I/OLinc Common and the Orange {NO} to the Sensor Input. If the SM120X is functioning correctly. On a smoke alarm sounding. The Sensor Input should go On triggering the I/OLInc. The Gray wire connection should probably be insulated and not used. Though in some systems it is used for a 9 volt trigger of other devices.
