I have also found the NC and NO specifications different between security and electronic industry descriptions. As a Electronic Technician. I would call a NC switch closed with no magnet. In a security system it is closed with the magnet. As that is the unviolated zone condition.

The 2413S has a 1023 link database. According to the web sales page. The later 2412S models where more than 2000. I can't find the exact number in my archives. Also the 2413S does not have power on the serial output connector to the ISY99i like the 2412S did. So you also need the optional external power supply when using a 2413S. To power the ISY99i. Simplehomenet makes a EZIComm module that is supposed to be a 2412S equivalent. http://www.simplehomenet.com/proddetail ... od=EZIComm I have had a few 2412S PLMs get flake along with 2414S/U PLC {same basic main board. Different daughter card and firmware}. The 2413S/U have a completely different main board so they maybe better.

Glad the filters did the trick for you.
-
Some cell phone chargers are also known to cause all kinds of power line noise.

Most of the X10 motion senors send an Off after a preset timeout. Most also have a Dusk Dawn sensor. Where it uses the next highest unit code. Like your P1, dusk dawn is P2. At dusk P2 On is sent and at dawn P2 Off is sent.
-
The HCA02-10E. Has been known to cause signal firestorms with X10s CM15A. I have not seen anything directly on it with Insteon signals. Though Insteon signals start 800us before Zero Crossing and extend past it. X10 starts at Zero Crossing so it maybe possible the HCA02-10E is misinterpreting the Insteon signals as an X10 one. Was the signal stream a P1 On then a P1 Off? It has a signal test function where it sends P1 On then P1 Off. When a test button is pushed. Until the button is pushed again or a valid X10 signal is received by it.
-
Some of the X10 active repeater couplers are known to get into signal firestorms. Which one do you have?
-
Is your ISY99i new? 3.1.2 is a beta and maybe you need the links to the last released firmware. a. http://isy/admin - applet (Windows only) b. http://isy/admin.jnlp - Java application (Windows only) c. http://your.isy.ip.address/admin - applet d. http://your.isy.ip.address/admin.jnlp - Java application e. http://www.universal-devices.com/99i/2.8.16 - applet f. http://www.universal-devices.com/99i/2.8.16/admin.jnlp - Java application Another thought. Are you using a Firewall and which one is it? I had to add my ISY99is IP address to ZoneAlarms Trusted Zone before things works.

Have you tried looking in the UDI Wiki? http://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/ ... =Main_Page Full Users Manual Here: http://www.universal-devices.com/docs/i ... rguide.pdf

Do you have any X10 Repeaters or older Smarthome BoosterLincs or X10 SwitchLincs with BoosterLinc features? Older BoosterLincs and SwitchLincs with BoosterLinc technology are know problems. Including communications interference.

I have a under counter fluorescent light with old type inductive ballast. It will drive an Appliancelinc or Icon On Off adapter nuts. It does sound like noise or spikes. Confusing or actually locking up the microcontroller in the module. So it is totally unresponsive to any Insteon commands. I would second TJF1960's suggestion of trying a filter.
-
Same thing for security systems. In my electronic training a magnetic switch that is NO means it is open when no magnet is next to it. In a security system it is for a NC type system where the switch is closed for normal operation.
-
Actually we should thank LeeG. He pointed me in the right direction.
-
A contactor and an ApplianceLinc turning it on and off sounds good. Just one thing to remember is the new HW 4.15 and 4.2 ApplianceLincs default to off after a power failure and not the state they where in at power loss time. Maybe a safer thing to happen. Just you have to make sure default off didn't leave your dishes half washed.
-
The DB LECTRO NT90RNCS110CB Relays in the EZSwitch30. Have some fairly high ratings. 1 and 1/2 HP for a 250 Volt AC. I would imagine at 120 volts AC the ratings would be different.
-
You would have to ask Simplehomenet if they ship to Canada. http://www.simplehomenet.com/ I know they list a Canadian Automation dealer on their web site.
-
In the downloads tab of the page. http://www.simplehomenet.com/Downloads/ ... -start.pdf It is also much less in price for the Refurbished ones over the new ones original cost.
-
Although this module is listed as a 220 volt unit. It uses 120 volts for power and is a 30 amp unit. Has both lines and neutral inputs. You can use the Line that powers it and has a switched output for switching your dishwasher. Ignoring the Isolated Line two input and output if you care to. It can be used on 120 volts by not using the second line input and outputs that are on a separate relay. It is also discontinued and the ones still being sold are reconditioned. I have an early production one and it works fine on 120 volts. The users manual is avilable if you care to see if maybe something you could use. http://www.simplehomenet.com/proddetail ... 9357345387 Another way would be an ApplianceLinc switching a heavy duty contactor with a 120 volt AC coil.
-
To second Lee's information. I have replaced old Hardware V1.3 ApplianceLincs firmware v.28. With V4.1 firmware v.32 and V4.2 firmware v.38 with no problems. The replace module function did it all.
-
ISY reports my new SynchroLinc as a v.30? My new iMeterSolo reports as a v.87? Didn't do lots of testing with the iMeterSolo but it did add with no hitches. Unlike the Synchrolinc that totally bombed out.
-
I tried forced i1 and it was added but the Set Options tab blew away on an error. Set back to Automatic and it did show what it was set to but writing changes failed.
-
Thanks for the fast analysis of the problem. At least we know why it is not 100% functional. Another i2 Quirk. You didn't write the i2 protocol Smartlabs did and you would think they could get it correct. Side note. I am not sure if the SynchroLinc can be both a responder and controller, but when I added it. The side tree for it showed both Is a Controller of and Is a Responder to.

I go the same message when picking it from the drop down list. Auto Discover added it but I got a red!

Yes I am ruining 3.1.2. I tried both auto discover and picking it from the drop down list, but I was not aware of the four minute power up self calibration thing. I may have tried one of the choices after the four minute thing or started before the thirty second pause before going into the self calibration thing. Supposed to double beep when self calibration starts. I can't remember if you are a member of the Developers Group. If you are there is a SynchroLinc Developers Notes pdf file avilable for download.
