If both setups are completely independent. They should work. Problems happen if you have Insteon devices common to both controllers. Each one does not know the other system exists and can overwrite links in the modules. Not known to the controller.

Momentarily jump the two together. If it works the kit should work. If it works and you have a intelligent display. It may reset the display. If power and data are both on the same two wires.

There is only two wires from the RF remote connected to the fan motor?

That is the "ISY Finder" and is normal for it to be open and behind the admin window.

4.0.5 is the latest Official Release. 4.2.5 Is the latest Release Candidate. I would expect a later Official Release would be close.

Reversing the Line and Neutral normally will not reverse the fans motors direction. If the fan motor uses a motor run capacitor you maybe able to reverse it but it would require rewiring the motor to do it. What make and model fan is it. Maybe we can find more information on it. It does not have a remote that can reverse it?

I am not sure if it was posted here or on the Smarthome Forums. I know someone rigged up some relays {maybe used I/OLincs} to do the reversing but as LeeG said. Not easy to do.

Depends on the switch being sold in electronic terms or security system terms. In electronic component terms the state at rest with no magnet. In security system terms the state when next to the magnet and the zone is not violated. So in electronic component terms. A NC switch is a security zone NO switch. Because it is open when the magnet is next to it and the zone viloates when the switch closed to it normal resting state NC with no magnet is next to it. This can be very confusing. As some vendors use electroninc component terms and some if it is for a NC or NO Security Zone use. In my electronics line of work. I have to always think. Is the vendor a electronic component sales site or a security sales site.

Since others reviweing the bulb have seen flickering. It could be a touchy bulb. They also redesigned the bulb and its specfications changed. It is possible Smarthome does not have any reports of the later ones having any flickering.

I have my ISY994i and computing equipement on an UPS and the PLM in the pass through outlet on a FilterLinc. UPS is on the filtered outlet. Never had a problem with short power losses and the system working OK. In long outages where I have turned the UPS off. Like with Super Storm Sandy. I did find it was best to power up the PLM first then the ISY994i. Most times it didn't matter but one time it went into safe mode. Maybe with a 33 hour outtage your UPS shut down and added to the timing whan powered back up.

I have seen many LED bulb brands do exactly what you describe. On an Insteon, X10 or cheap manual rotory dimmer. While adjusting the light level they pulse or flicker as the new level is set. I doubt the ISY in the picture would be an issue. A Insteon Dim or Brighten command from a HUB or ISY controller is the same basic command. After looking at the Reviews for the bulb. A few other purchasers also reported choppy or steped light levels when brightened or dimmed. So you are not alone in your observations.

I didn't find a choice to mark all the forum sections as read. I did find clicking on the sections new messages indicator I could mark each section as read. Kind of work around. That I hope can be implemented again.

Michel; Too bad Smartlabs will not let you update Firmware. The 2413S/U do have the five pin programming connectors for both the RF Insteon and Power Line Insteon Chips. Just their long standing fears of someone getting their hands on their firmware images.

Smathome/Smartlabs chose the %Dim command and not the Extended X10 Messaging command. So I doubt the Insteon Chip UDI will be using will support X10 Extended Messaging.

In the Configuration Tab. System Area. Is the Catchup schedules at Restart checked? How about Query at Restart?

You don't have a trusted neighbor that can reboot the system? It is possible things didn't restart in an orderly fashion. I know after a power failure. I have to power up my PLM before the ISY994i on the chance the PLM was not fully booted before the controller tested for it.

My modules show a Delete Choice in 4.2.5. Are they maybe in a Folder?

1. The ISY controller has to talk to the PLM with a serial connection. I see no way of having both connected at the same time. Both PLMs would have to have its ID number in every module in the system it controls and each module it controls ID in its Link Database. The links for the unused PLM would cause all kinds of communications errors and retries. The ISY controller tests for communications with the PLM at power up or reboot. Change the PLM to the backup and it will not be detected if a reboot is not done. The HUB has no serial interface. No it will not work with an ISY Controller.

Open Find. Type in your city or towns name. Hit OK. A list of locations with that name will appear. In my case one in the USA, one in GB and one in Australia. Hi lite yous and OK. A list of available locations will appear. Hi light your choice of station and pick OK. Use the Save tab to load your location.

The relay model Insteon Modules are designed to control inductive loads so it should not be a problem. Though it may depend on the transformers characteristics when turned On and Off. If there is one of the rare problems. I believe the users added a Snubber across the transformer.

There is a thread here on using the Insteon wireless thermometer with its external probe. To monitor water temperature. I am not sure if it would be anything that will assist you. viewtopic.php?f=26&t=9833

The SynchroLinc measures the current passing through a very low resistance current shunt. Between the AC Neutral Input and the Neutral pin on the Outlet. Limited to 15 amps. You may find this link interesting. The CT800 current sensor has been reported to trigger an I/OLInc. http://cocoontech.com/forums/page/artic ... ensors-r58

The flicker issue has been reported by others. Some had Lutron dimmers. Though Lutron was not the only one reported. The Insteon power line signals are interfering with the Lutrons electronics. I believe some users have added a filter to the power feed to the effected Lutron device. To keep the power line signals out of its electronics.

When you go to the Help Tab. About choice. Does it show 4.2.4 for both the UI and the Firmware?

Have you verified. You have a good Line and Neutral power connection? How does it act with NO load on it? Does the LED Bargraph still act strange? All the ones I have seen. The lowest LED is always On when the device is in the Off state. After you did the Factory Reset. The Set Button did pop out to its normal position and is not stuck all the way in?
