Normal. Mine is the same way. Last command from the button. Is what shows.

Do you have the Pro Version? You can delay automatic writes and automatic battery device writes with the Pro version.

A scene test is the worst case test. It sets the hop count to one. I believe three hops is normal. So a scene test can fail and the scene may still work with normal commands. The test shows marginal communications that can slow things down or why a module may sometimes miss a command.

Look in My Lighting. On the Type Column. The device part number description and the v.?? at the end is the firmware version number.

On my 2413S PLM the LED is a dim Green when nothing is being processed. When the ISY99i is sending commands it flashes a brighter Green and when there is Insteon traffic. It briefly goes out. I believe the Red Green sequence is when you are doing the communications test between Dual Band Units. To verify proper communications on both phases of the homes wiring. Yes nothing much happens if there is no communications between the PLM and the ISY99i. I would suspect a bad PLM myself.

I never got anything on a swap either.

I use the Address and Description lines. Then Auto Detect. Seems to work fine that way.

I wounder if part of the problem is the other V.35 SwitchLincs still in the system. Slowing thing down. I thought when I did a replacement. After the replacement was done. It rebooted all by itself.

ISY could not synchronize the clock with the time server. I get that every once and a while myself. Have you tried to manually update the clock? In the configuration tab System section Try the Synchronize Now Button and see if the red! goes away.

Wireless Relay? You want RF or over power lines by Insteon signals? I have not seen any RF types relays but there are a few Insteon power line ones. The Insteon I/OLinc has a form C {NC and NO} dry contact relay in it and a closer to digital input than analog input. Simplehomenet makes a few Insteon modules that are different combinations of I/O. Some have all inputs some all outputs and some a mixture. Theirs have a few of the inputs configurable to analog or digital inputs. Zero to five volts sound like it. http://www.smarthome.com/2450/IOLinc-IN ... ut-/p.aspx http://www.smarthome.com/_/Automatic_Sp ... r/nav.aspx http://www.simplehomenet.com/cats.asp?id=12 There are links on all the above sites to find users manuals for the modules. If you care to read about them. If you need an RF device that sends an On or Off when a magnet or dry contact is moved. There is a TriggerLinc. http://www.smarthome.com/2421/TriggerLi ... sor/p.aspx

You set it to eight button but are still using the six button keypad?

Good detective work. It sounds like it was the EZIO6 was starting to fail.

I reread your previous post and that is why I removed my response. I did read that you had the icon in the Grey state. You must have found the reply before I removed it. That is the way I understand it. Gery is batch mode and green is immediate. I am sure the folks at UDI will clarify this for both of us. All I can find in the wiki. http://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/ ... 99i_Pro.29

Could also damage the Insteon switch's. If the transformers are not rated to be dimmed. The dimmer switch manuals all caution on using them with inductive loads like transformers. The clue maybe when dimmed the communications to the switches suffers.

Then you are saying when I used Auto Discover the v.33 was a bogus number? It added all six buttons and they where red. Just like the ones I added with the Add a RemoteLinc choice that gave me the v.00 for firmware.

In tools. Diagnostics. Show PLM Status/Info. Does it show connected and the PLM firmware version? Are you using a firewall? I use Zone Alarm Free version and until I added my ISY99is IP address to the Trusted Zone. Things didn't work correctly.

I found that if I used the Auto Discover choice and not the Add a RemoteLinc choice. I could get My Lighting to show the actual firmware version in my RemoteLinc v.33. While the Add a RemoteLinc does not and shows v.00 Any reason why the Add a RemoteLinc has to be used if the Auto Discover will also? Well as long as you remember to turn on the linking mode with the Bright and Dim Buttons.

Thank you for the update on what was causing the flood of Insteon signals on the power line.

Does sound like noise. My LEDs flash with noise. Though I believe my later revision ApplianceLincs do not flash.

Normally the PLM is connected to port A and Port B is not used. Do you need the information on the Port B that normally is not usually used? Maybe you are trying to telnet to it? Data here: http://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/ ... _ISY_Shell The pro kit comes with a null modem cable for the Port B to Computer connection.

Have you found the UDI wiki and full users manuals yet? http://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/ ... =Main_Page http://www.universal-devices.com/docs/i ... rguide.pdf I have not seen any videos yet.

What revision firmware are you using on you ISY99i? Help tab About choice will give you the revision you have. I believe support for the 2477D was added in 2.8.1 Program details. Right click on the program in question. You can select delete if you want to remove the whole thing.

I used the applet tonight to open the program. The last known state was blank. Then Java popped up with a security warning and wanted to block the applet. I may try the clear cache thing again and then download the applet fresh.

Step f. is also one I had never seen before. Not using the local IP address like I usually used.
