Synchrolinc Linking Problems
I just got a SynchroLinc today. The full users manual indicates it automatically goes into a self calibration mode after power on. That times out after four minutes. It also seem to indicate that adding it to things like HL2 should not be started until it was in the calibration mode? I also got some errors when trying to add it to my ISY setup. Maybe UDI has some tips for us as I don't know if we should try it while it is in power up self calibrate mode or wait until it times out. http://www.smarthome.com/manuals/2423A5.pdf

Fan timer and speed control?
Unfortunately. Each fan manufacturer seems to control speed differently. Making a Insteon fan controller that can do all fans would be a challenge. Yours look like Fantech varies the voltage to it with a control that can take the fans load. Other manufacturers may switch capacitors or motor leads to vary the speed.

Fan timer and speed control?
There are no Insteon devices that can control a fans speed. There is a whole thread on this subject in the Smarthome forums. http://www.smarthome.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7992

Release 3.1.2 (Beta) Is Now Available
Installed fine this morning.

Outletlinc question.
It is also against code to use a dimmer switch in a J-box to control an outlet. Same reason. Too easy to blow something up. Dimmer switch in a J-box controlling hard wired fixtures. OK.

Choice of PLM with ISY-99
2412S has been discontinued for a fairly long time now. I believe Simplehomenet makes an equivalent to the 2412S. I have seen no feedback on how it works with an ISY99i.

Release 3.1.1 (Beta) Is Now Available
Installed fine for me. Only thing I noticed was the module status was blank until I closed the program and restarted it.

Can the RF of a 2477D be verified?
Are the CFLs dimmable? If not; they should not be used with a dimmer type switch. Many times even if they are dimmable. They can make power line interference that can effect things. The best thing is relay type modules and switches for CFLs.

Michel; Did the 2477D dual band Switchlinc ever have v.35 firmware in it?

Can't add 2420M Motion Sensor to 2.8.16
Smarthome sells a nine volt adapter and on the sales page. It says can be used with the 2420M.

What are these entries in my error log?
Sometimes you get hits from the search function. Some terms I think may find something have no hits others more than I really wanted.

What are these entries in my error log?
Error message numbers are found here. http://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/ ... r_Messages I am sure UDI will give you the scoop on if they are a big problem.

Thermostat recommendation
The unit communicates with the automation controllers by an RS232 connection. I don't believe the Serial Port on the ISY99i could be used to interface to the unit.

2413S Dual Band PLM
9 volts should be fine. I asked about the voltage range in this thread. http://forum.universal-devices.com/viewtopic.php?t=3593 On the bottom of the 2413S sales page. They do show an optional ISY Power Supply, but it is not very obvious.

How can I monitor my well using my ISY?
Look at the CT-800 sensor used in this tutorial. http://www.cocoontech.com/portal/articl ... ?showall=1 You could pass one of the two 220 volt power wires for the pump through the CT-800 and trigger an I/OLinc's sensor input.

Adding A RemoteLinc?
The RemoteLinc is in the Device Type List. 00.05 I have used the Auto Discover and it was added. Just have to remember to turn the linking mode on or it isn't found. Firmware v.33. V1.0 RemoteLinc. I have seen a V1.2 reported as having a v.35 firmware. Michel gave me a reason why I should not go that route in an earlier post to this thread. But it was added. I don't have any newer revisions. So new ones may not act the same as mine.

Adding A RemoteLinc?
Unless something has changed. You can't. Though on my old revision RemoteLinc. I can manually link modules to the All Buttons and not have any of the six paddles in the loop. The Diagnostics Show Device Links Table. For the RemoteLinc. Does show the extra links to the All Buttons and flags an extra link message in the compare functions.

X10 Thermostat
I really doubt it. What make and model? The RCS TX15 and TXB16 come to mind.

PLM WRITE FAILS!
No there was a type on my post. Restore Modem PLM was what I wanted to say. Not replace plm.
-
PLM WRITE FAILS!
After the PLM swap. In the files menu area. Did you use the "Restore PLM" choice to update the ISY99i system to the new PLM? That is how I swapped my 2412S for the newer 2413S. Restore PLM was needed to do it.

Recently installed Weatherbug, question!
I don't know all the ways it works. I almost think it goes out and checks what is avilable in you area after you input a location. I believe it also gives you a list of exactly what each station supports. As some have added data other do not.

Official Firmware Release: 2.8.16
If the modules in question are ApplianceLincs and a hardware revision 4.2. They default to Off after a power loss. Unlike the earlier revision ones that default to the On or Off state they where in at power loss. Same for the latest Icon Appliance Module
