“To restate, in order to programmatically change the status of KPL buttons, I need them in an actual scene (even if the scene only gets called from the program) and I then call the scene within my program.†Exactly right. Applies only to Secondary KPL buttons. KPL load control button (Main or ON/OFF) can be controlled without a Scene. Mutually exclusive buttons are defined using Button Grouping. The problem with mutually exclusive buttons is they work only on the device where the KPL button is pressed. They do work but most times multiple KPLs are used and KPL buttons that are Responders reacting to a KPL button press of a different KPL do NOT honor the mutually exclusive definition. The result is multiple Responder KPL buttons are On because nothing turns the others Off. You need a Program to do the other KPL button management anyway.

TimoJones A Secondary KeypadLinc button ( cannot be turned Off when button A turns the Scene On. Many devices can be turned Off with a Scene On but Secondary KeypadLinc buttons cannot. Define an ISY Program that triggers when KPL button A is pressed On. The Program will turn a Scene Off which has the various KPL B buttons as Responders. Lee

UDI was able to reactivate the gmail account that serves as the default mail handler. It is better to use your ISP mail server as that would not be exposed to the max message cutoff that just happened.

Two dimmers cannot be connected in tandem. I also agree that running them at 90% of rating is pushing the limit. The dimmer would have to be in a box by itself. Putting the dimmer along side of another dimmer derates the dimmer plus it is often necessary to remove some of the heat sync fins which also derates the dimmer.

The RemoteLinc2 is not supported until 3.1.10. That Beta has a good track record. You could try calling the RL2 a RemoteLinc. The number of nodes will not be correct and I'm not sure the links can be written when describing it as a RemoteLinc. The newer RF only devices such as the Motion Sensor and the TriggerLinc require I2 linking which the RemoteLinc does not. Do not know if the RL2 supports I1 linking like the RemoteLinc or requires I2 linking. My RL2 arrives Saturday at which point I should be able to answer that question. The only supported option is to go to 3.1.10. There is a fix, 3.1.11, for users who have the optional Network Module and do not have the Weatherbug module. There is a problem with network module network resources at 3.1.10 if the Weatherbug module is not installed. I suggest trying 3.1.10. As with all updates be sure to take a backup before doing the install. You can always reinstall 2.8.16 if there are issues with 3.1.10. Be sure to follow the install instructions for 3.1.10, clear the Java cache and use the correct URL for invoking the 3.1.10 Admin Console.

"Subscriber didn't replay to Event: 1" I am seeing a similar popup when the Admin Console starts. Does not seem to cause an actual problem as far as I tell. EDIT: I do not have the ELK Module if that makes a difference. EDIT2: these are the only messages in the error log from today when I started the Admin Console Thu 2011/11/17 08:53:05 AM System -170001 [uDSockets] RSub:29 error:6 Thu 2011/11/17 08:53:10 AM System -170001 [uDSockets] RSub:29 error:6 Thu 2011/11/17 08:53:14 AM System -170001 [uDSockets] RSub:29 error:6 Thu 2011/11/17 08:53:19 AM System -170001 [uDSockets] RSub:29 error:6

rgn2000 It is not your specific traffic but the combined traffic of all ISY users that exceeded the monthly limit for gmail. Likely the result of someone testing a bad configuration as the address used was gmail.colm (from another topic). Lee

Installed 3.1.12 with no issues. Really appreciate the UI level in the Help | About. Thank you again.

No harm that I am aware of except that they cannot be restored individually. The entire EZFlora would have to be deleted and added back as a new device. Had another user who had deleted the unused nodes and wanted to get them back. I suggest jumping 6&7 to some valve even if the nodes are deleted. I had a lightning strike that fried a Rainbird controller before I switched to the EZFlora. Pump ran with no valve open. The pump got hot enough to expand the composite pump housing which allowed the discharge pipe to slip a few threads. Had a column of water shooting 10' in the air. Was fortunate as I think the pump would have been permanently damaged had the water not found a discharge point. Also installed a mechanical pressure relief valve. This was not the result of turning on a non-existent zone but the results were the same.

See duplicate post for answer.

mikeneal The solution is to jumper zone 5,6,7 together ( or whatever in use zone you like to 6&7). That way if they are accidently turned on the pump will drive an existing zone. You can right click on the node representing each of those zones and delete each one but there is no way to get them back. Lee

" would it be better to use "is not switched On"" The answer is NO if that is addressed to the IF Control test. If the dimmer is On but at some reduced On level rather than completely Off then the If Status would need to check for not On. When the Off paddle is pressed an Off command is sent regardless of the current state of the device so the If Control is switched Off is the correct test.

"Do the load and slave switches control the designated light simply due to the wiring, or does the slave only control the light when it is linked to the load?" Insteon devices control other Insteon devices by being linked together, not wired together as in standard switch multi-way configurations. When one switch stops controlling the linked switch it is normally a link problem or possibility interference on the powerline. The links for each device can be verified by a right click on the switch in the My Lighting tree and select Diagnostics | Show Device Links Table. When the display completes there is a Compare button along the bottom of the display that directs the ISY to compare the links retrieved against what it thinks should be in the device.

That is odd since my ApplianceLincs are listed and they are Responder only devices. Particularly since there are an ever expanding list of applications like mobilinc that can change the status of the MorningLinc. As you say it does not fix the manual key operation since the lockset does not report the change to the MorningLinc. I have a MorningLinc and lockset coming this week to update the front door. I may be able to report success/failure using some sort of plunger once the lockset is installed.

bruinlax I do not have a MorningLinc so excuse the basic question. Does the MorningLinc node in the Admin Console show a change in Status when the door is unlocked through mobilinc? If it does than an If Status 'morninglinc' is On (or maybe Off) should trigger the Program when the Status changes ANDed with a range of time From Sunset to whatever you want as the range limiter. Maybe Sunrise (next day) or some absolute To time such as 11:00 pm. Just depends on whether the MorningLinc node changes state when mobilinc unlocks the door. Lee

ryarber Be sure the Motion Sensor is the first parameter (In Scene) in the Adjust Scene statement if adjusting a Responder that is linked to the Motion Sensor as a Controller. Lee

Try this topic. About 10 or 12 posts into the topic is a detailed description of one solution. viewtopic.php?f=27&t=6908&hilit=avast The detail is in the next to last post in topic

Search for the word avast. There are multiple ways to resolve the Avast problem. There is one post that covers the solution in detail. If I can find it I will post the link.

That has all the characteristics of a firewall/AV problem. If the device status is showing correctly on the iPhone the links are in tact. Kaspersky and Avast often block the ISY push of device status. The last update to Avast created problems for several users.

DO NOT DO A FACTORY RESET UNLESS DIRECTED TO DO SO BY UDI FOLKS. I take the restore of the backup worked but did not result in seeing current device status. Was the PLM restored to get the PLM link records back?

I think the backup from 2.8.16 will work. The ISY could have been upgraded from 2.8.16 directly to 3.1.10 which would make a 2.8.16 backup the expected variant. The bigger question is how this all happened to begin with. When I saw your initial post I was thinking a firewall/AV issue which is well known for blocking the ability of the ISY to push data such as current device status out to the Admin Console but that would not explain the password reset.

If you have a backup you can restore the backup (File | Restore ISY) and then File | Restore Modem (PLM) to recreate the PLM link records. May be necessary to repeat the Restore Device after restoring the backup. A Show Device Links Table with a subsequent Compare will indicate if that is necessary after the Restore Modem (PLM) completes.

The RL2 is not responding to the commands sent from the ISY. RF communication is not under application control (ISY in this case). All RF communication is autonomous and automatic. The lack of response from the RL2 can be caused by any of the following the Access Point not working the Access Point is not coupled to the ISY PLM phase the RL2 is not in linking mode the RL2 is out of range of the Access Point the RL2 is not working something is interfering with RF communication - this can be eliminated as a cause if other RF devices are working. EDIT: these are actually Access Points and not SignaLincs with the black external antenna

trzebrand The current If will never drive the Else clause. The If Control On triggers the Program when an On command is received. The If will be True with the Then clause executed. With the current If definition the Program is never triggered when with a False condition and therefore the Else is not executed. Try something like this If Status 'closet switch' is On And Control 'motion detector living room' is switched On Then Send Notification to 'Brandon' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

AustinKirby The Primary switch where the load is physically being controlled knows the difference between the first tap to 50% and the second tap that results in 100%. When the non-load controlling device On is tapped it sends a command to the Primary switch which reacts according the way the Scene has been defined (Responder On Level of the Primary switch). When the non-load controlling device On is tapped a second time the same command is sent to the Primary switch and it reacts exactly the same as the first command as it is acting as a Responder device in both cases and is obligated to react the same way. The first tap 50% second tap 100% is a characteristic unique to the device where the paddle is being tapped. It would be necessary to trigger an ISY Program from the Secondary swithc and have the Program produce those results through program logic. Lee
