The Scene Test actually is not testing the scene itself. It is doing a worse case communications test with all the devices in the scene. You may have some marginal communications to some of the devices in the scene. http://wiki.universal-devices.com/index ... Scene_Test It is possible for a scene to run fine but due to marginal communications. Fail the Scene Test. Though a failure does indicate you have marginal communications and possible issues later. If things get worse. Do you have two verified {four tap set button communications test} Dual Band Devices on opposite phases of the home?

Manual linking had to be kept or many users with no controllers would be out of luck and Insteon would quickly fade into oblivion. I2CS messed up may hardware and software vendors. Along with end users. Old I1 commands ignored and new restrictions on if a module will respond. Depending on what is in each Link Database. Check Sum incorrect all you get is a NAK response.

Do you have any Access Points for phase coupling or are you counting on the Dual Band modules you have? Have you used the built in communications tests in the Dual Band modules to verify phase coupling and communications range? Is the PLM on the same circuit as the computing equipment or on a surge strip? Both can cause power line signal problems if not on a filter.

I believe there was another user with a similar Keypadlinc problem with the ISY99i. They where going to try a older model from the drop down list but I don't know the results. There was a upgrade from a ISY99i to ISY994i offer awhile back but it has expired. You may want to wait and see if UDI chimes in on this subject. The main problem with the ISY99i's firmware was they ran out of space. To hold the larger firmware needed to add the new devices and features.

Support for the 2334-232 Dual Band 6 button Keypadlinc was added in firmware 4.0.1. The last released firmware for the ISY99i is 3.3.10.

One of the error messages you posted indicated an Old PLM. Did you ever have a different PLM on the ISY99i? Have you done the communications tests built into the Dual Band Devices? To verify phase coupling and RF communications? What version of ISY99i firmware are you running? 3.3.10 is the last ISY99i firmware. Are the Switchlincs Dual Band? You didn't list their model numbers and there where older power line only Switchlinc modules.

Just don't push the Air Gap Switch past its normal position when turning it back On. All the way in does a Factory Reset.

They are not the same. The 2334-222 is a Dual Band module and the 2486D is an older power line only module. They have different Sub Cat Numbers and the latest firmware for the ISY99i may not support it completely and it was added as a generic device. I just looked at the Firmware Release Notes and the 2334-222 was added in 4.0.1 and only for the ISY994i as the ISY99i firmware was frozen at 3.3.10. viewtopic.php?f=44&t=10771

I added a two second delay before sending my X10 commands. For the reasons Indy Mike pointed out.

Do you have an antivirus or firewall program running? If so what software is it?

Thanks for the update. I am glad it is now working.

The 2476S is discontinued and did not have a sense input. The 2467SS was the one with sense and it is also discontinued. http://www.smarthome.com/2476SS/SwitchL ... ite/p.aspx The Dual Band 2477S is now the model being sold and it also has no sense input. http://www.smarthome.com/2477S/SwitchLi ... ite/p.aspx The On Off Micro Module has sense inputs but I am not 100% sure it will work in your application. http://www.smarthome.com/2443-222/INSTE ... ule/p.aspx

May depend on the Hardware and Firmware revision of the modules. Some features where added by Smartlabs to later revision devices that are not in the earlier revisions. User provided data on Insteon Modules. http://www.madreporite.com/insteon/Inst ... e_list.htm If the options setting area for your module does not show that option. There is a very good chance the module does not support the feature.

You are not alone. I missed the ID label stuck inside a RemoteLinc.

Are you maybe thinking of the 2244-223 Automation Controller Kit originally sold through Best Buy. That I believe is discontinued and showing up in places like eBay. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/INSTEON+-+S ... ID=1987080 There is a thread over on the Smarthome Forums related to the 2244-223 Kit. As to what exactly was in the kit controller wise.

If the generator is not a pure sine wave output. It can drive some automation modules crazy or in extreme situations. Damage their power supplies.

You probably set it to never go to sleep. I would expect a very short battery life. Good luck and keep us informed.

If you don't have the 2413S connected to the ISY994i. It is in a protective mode and choices are not avilable. Try it with the 2413S PLM connected.

Is the old PLM the 2412S or the Dual band 2413S? If it is the 2412S I would think it maybe best to replace it. As for the 2443 Access Points. They are probably OK. I actually found in an informal test. My older V1.6 ones with the power transformer. Have a stronger RF signal than my newer V2.5 ones do.

Installing the Access Points is a good idea. Use the built in communications test to verify communications with each other and on opposite phases of the home. Access points are not installed into My Lighting as a module.

3. Some users have their ISY99i/ISY994i power supply on an UPS. The PLM still should be powered by a standard AC outlet. Not on an UPS or filtered surge strip. As they absorb most Insteon and X10 power line signals as noise. I have my ISY994i power supply on my UPS. The UPS is on the filtered outlet of a FilterLinc to prevent its internal line filters from absorbing Insteon signals. The PLM is in the front unfiltered outlet on the FilterLinc.

Here is one way. There are probably other ways. Note the internal sensor has to be replaced by the external one as there is no way to get the external sensors readings sent to the ISy controller. viewtopic.php?f=26&t=9833

The front outlet on the FilterLinc is not filtered. So it should not block the PLM's power line signals. That is exactly how my setup is. UPS in bottom filtered outlet and the PLM in the unfiltered pass through outlet on the front.

Without the PLM connected. The ISY994i goes into a safe mode. You can't use a backup and restore to the ISY994i alone. It has to be on the PLM and then you restore it from your last ISY99i backup.

There are a few threads on Kapersky in this section of the forums. You may find some added data there. viewforum.php?f=3
