I wounder why I could even add it?

Though in the drop down list in the add a device tab. There are a few entries for PLCs and PLMs. I just added a 2412S PLM to My Lighting and could read its link database. It was not the one connected to the ISY99i and I have no idea why someone would add a PLM or older PLC to My Lighting.

My guess is the triac that is the component that dims the device is shorted and is acting like a piece of wire. You could try the Factory Reset on the chance the memory has garbage in it. If you do a factory reset and then restore it from the ISY. I don't believe you have to remove it from scenes as you will just be writing all the links back when you do the restore.

They all work just reporting different levels of data. Device Communications Events is the Scene test event choice. You can invoke the event viewer from the Diagnostics tab and it normally defaults to Status Operation Events but you can pick others.

Yes the 2413S does not have the unregulated +12 volts on the interface connector. The 2412S did. Best to verify as you did.

The serial cable in the PLMs box is for users that are connecting to other devices and is part of the PLMs package. As you know not needed or used with an ISY99i.

Did you set the Event Viewer to Device Communications Events or Level 3 if you have an older version?

Installed fine for me.

Do you have any firewalls and what is it? I had all kinds of problems with ZoneAlarm until the iSY99is IP address was added to the trusted zone.

If the PLM Info/Status is not showing anything. That is the problem. You may want to give the RJ45 connectors a good looking at. Some have reported one or more of the pins in the jack was bent up and not connecting to the cable. Start Linking should start the PLM LED flashing. Another indication the PLM and ISY99i are not communicating.

Well it depends on the hardware revision of the 2476S SwitchLinc Relay. Versions between 5.0 to 5.3 had a sense input. Lower and higher revisions do not have sense inputs. A separate model 2476SS now has the sense input Yes confusing.

You are welcome. As questions arise. There are many users here that will gladly assist you. Also UDI Support should be en example for all companies to follow. It is exceptional.

The Dual band devices do not link to each other in the tests for proper communications. The Dual Band tests are used to verify you have at least one device on each phase and that they are communicating with each other. You may want to try the connections tests after a few devices are installed. The tests should be done with the instruction in the users sheets. The ISY99i will do any of the linking you will need to get the system up and running. If you have not found the online Full Users Manuals for the modules they are here: http://wiki.smarthome.com/index.php?tit ... 7s_Manuals The full users manual for the ISY99i is here: http://www.universal-devices.com/docs/i ... rguide.pdf Wiki here. http://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/ ... =Main_Page

You are welcome. Glad it helped.

Does the samething happen if you use the synchronize to computer time?

The 2413S has a 1023 link database. Looks like that would not be a problem with yours.

My 2413S works fine with 2.8.6 firmware. It is faster doing somethings like queries. You may just want to check your total links in the PLM as the 2413S had about half the space as the 2412S.

The 2413S does not supply power. You need an external power supply. Smarthome has one and many here have used their own as the ISY99i has a fairly wide voltage acceptance. You could find a suitable one at many electronic supply vendors. Like Radio Shack. http://www.smarthome.com/1223PS/Univers ... ply/p.aspx http://forum.universal-devices.com/viewtopic.php?t=3593 The 2413S also does not have a ground pin so that is normal. The ground pin in a 2412S only connects from the rear male pin to the front pass through female jack. It has no connections to the internal circuitry at all.

I have an under counter fluorescent light that makes my older revision 1.3 ApplianceLinc click on and off even when Local Control is disabled. The newer revision 4.1 works fine as the hardware was completely revised.

I would also say it does sound like the paddle tact switch problem. Local paddles do not work but power line control does. Sometimes pushing near the edge of the paddle would work.

Downloaded and installed with no problems. Will keep an eye on it.

This morning my error log showed some network lost messages. That I have never seen before.

Installed with out a hitch. My first impression was a surprise. My Lighting now shows all 6 buttons on a RemoteLinc and they show an On or Off as the particular button is actuated on the RemoteLinc. The 99i Administrative Console on the Desktop also has a nice new look.

Well I was also use to the label being on the rear of the module or face plate of switches. Took me awhile to find it in my RemoLincs also.

You will need a com port if you use the 2413S. Do you by chance have a USB to serial adapter to try?
