How to program stairwell lights
rominejc "Obviously,this is because the open/close sensor remains open (and therefore on)." Unfortunately that is not how the Open Close Sensor works. As was stated by Stusviews the On command is sent once from the Open Close Sensor. The Motion Sensor will send multiple On commands, once each time motion is sensed. How often this happens depends on the Options set in the Motion Sensor. Suggest you indicate how you have configured the Motion Sensor. Also indicate what should happen under the various conditions; door opened and closed, door opened and left open, door already open. This covers a trip down the stairs. Then explain what you want to happen when traffic is going up stairs; motion sensor starts process, what stops it?. When door is opened, what if door is already open when trip up stairs starts. Does door have to be closed to turn Off lights? It does not help to offer a suggestion (probably two Programs at least) without knowing how the logic should perform to meet your requirements.

How to program stairwell lights
When the X10 device is replaced with a Insteon device the Open Close Sensor and Motion Sensor can turn light(s) On directly with a Scene without any delay going through a Program. Program logic can be used to turn Off the light(s) where any delay is not an issue. A Dual Band Insteon device should be used to control the light(s). It is unusual for a delay to exist in Program execution of more than 1 to 1.5 seconds. The Motion Sensor can be slow to react based on Options chosen but would not expect a long delay from Open Close Sensor unless poor RF reception requires multiple attempts by Open Close Sensor to get a response from a Dual Band device. Suggest running Tools | Diagnostics | Event Viewer at LEVEL 3 to trace Insteon/X10 activity. Post the event trace for analysis.

Socket open failed javax.net .......
Sure. The 4.3.10 image supports TLS1.2 and high grade cipher suites. From the 4.3.10 announcement .... IMPORTANT SSLv3 is now disabled. All models now support TLS1.2 and high grade cipher suites

Socket open failed javax.net .......
Sorry, I do not know what can be done with the 99i. I would move to a supported 994i. Perhaps UDI knows a work around.

The Admin Console no longer supports SSL because of the security issues with SSL. What ISY level and UI level is being used (Help | About). From 4.3.10 announcement, but I believe even 3.2.30 indicated SSL3 no longer supported. IMPORTANT SSLv3 is now disabled. All models now support TLS1.2 and high grade cipher suites

Scene adjust
In addition to what oberkc has mentioned, you have to change the Responder for the Controller. In an ISY Scene "Garage Motion" there are multiple Controllers where the Responder of each Controller must be changed Scene Garage Motion - PLM is Controller of this Insteon Scene Motion Sensor-Sensor - Controller - Motion Sensor-Sensor is Controller of this Insteon Scene KPL button D - Controller - KPL button D is Controller of this Insteon Scene Garage Back Lite - Responder Multiple Adjust Scene statements are required. In Scene 'Garage Motion' Set 'Garage Back Lite' 31% (On Level) - for when the ISY Scene is used in a Program In Scene 'Motion Sensor-Sensor' Set 'Garage Back Lite' 31% (On Level) - for when Motion Sensor-Sensor is Controller In Scene 'KPL button D' Set 'Garage Back Lite' 31% (On Level) - for when KPL button D is Controller

Device states not updating - Bad PLM?
That is great news! Better than I thought it would be. Thanks for posting back the results.

Device states not updating - Bad PLM?
I don't think Exporting the Programs will help. I have seen folks report that deleting and readding device without restarting the Admin Console in between leaves the Programs with the correct device name but I cannot confirm that based on what I have seen. The worst case is the reference to the device will still be there but with an undefined name. Change one device and see what the Program(s) have. Be sure the Program(s) actually work if the device name is correct.

Replacing A ToggleLinc With A SwitchLinc
A ToggleLinc can be Replaced with a SwitchLinc assuming both are Dimmer or both are Relay. Add the SwitchLinc under a dummy device name. Right click on ToggleLinc and select Replace ToggleLinc Dimmer/Relay with .... A popup is displayed listing new devices that can replace ToggleLinc. When complete the Admin Console will terminate as SwitchLinc device name will no longer exist.
-
Device states not updating - Bad PLM?
The SwitchLinc Relay and Icon Relay do not have the required Controller link records (start with E2 01 ........) to report Status change. This is the result of the Delete Modem (PLM). Unless you have an ISY Backup taken before the Delete Modem (PLM) that can be restored (anything that old would likely be very out of date regarding overall Insteon installs) the only solution is to delete and readd those devices that are missing the Controller link records.
-
Device states not updating - Bad PLM?
Pick a SwitchLinc if possible as it will have less link records. Do a Show Device Links Table. Post the Show display along with the the new PLM Insteon address.

Phase coupler
That is the passive coupler (2406H). The down side to that form of coupling is the Insteon signal is transferred to the opposite 120v leg at the same signal level as received. It is normal to have signal reduction so a lose of 50% would mean the Insteon signal starts out at that reduced signal level. With so much Dual Band devices in use today it may not make much difference because the RF signal is transmitted at full strength. That is why I prefer Range Extenders rather than the passive coupler. The up side to the passive coupler is there is no Hop needed to couple the two 120v legs.

Run fan for 30 seconds every 10 minutes
Need to know what starts the process. If always, set Program to Run at Startup. If by some device action, such as pressing a KPL button or similar, just need to know what that is. The meat of the Program If depends on additional information Then Repeat every 10 minutes Set 'fan' On Wait 30 seconds Set 'fan Off Else Set 'fan' Off

Leak Sensors
hutchyx I would try a fresh battery. Is this city/treated water? They remove much of what a Leak Sensor uses to detect water. Does the LEVEL 3 Event Trace show any indication of the Wet/Dry nodes cycling since the v.41 does not lock in a Wet condition.
-
Leak Sensors
The V.43 Leak Sensor stays Wet=On once it detects a wet condition. The V.41 Leak Sensor cycles back to Dry when no longer Wet.

How to use ISY994zw w/o PLM
What ISY firmware is being used? 4.3.8 may have that ability built in. If not UDI can supply you with a version that does not require a PLM.

How to program an Insteon motion sensor
Whether another Program is needed would be dependent on the logic of the Programs. An If Control .......... Or Control 'Kitchen / Kitchen Cabinets' is not switched Off will drive the Else clause when the device is physically switched Off Of course a separate Program with If Control 'Kitchen / Kitchen Cabinets' is switched Off Then Wait 20 seconds Enable Program 'Kitchen Cabinet Motion' Or Status can be used If Status 'Kitchen / Kitchen Cabinets' is Off Then Wait 20 seconds Enable Program 'Kitchen Cabinet Motion' Just depends on whether looking for the device that is physically turned Off where If Control is used, or If Status when checking for device being Off whether turned Off at the device or something else turned the device Off.

Insteon - importance of "hops"
Hops is too complex a subject to explain in a forum post. Go to insteon.com, Technology, White papers, and read the insteondetails.pdf document starting on page 23. It covers Hops and Time slots in detail. Insteon devices are not enrolled. They can be added to the ISY and moved at will if desired. Physical distance is not so important. I have several Insteon devices in a two story detached garage which is more than 300' wire feet away from the main house, all of which operate okay. Devices can simulcast the same message so Hops count has not been an issue. Do you actually have comm issues or something that may be an issue?

How to program an Insteon motion sensor
No. "If Status" triggers a Program whether the specified Status being checked matches, which can result in a False evaluation that drives the Else clause. "If Control 'xxxx' is switched yyy" triggers the Program ONLY when the condition matches. There is no False evaluation so Else does not run. The "If Control 'xxxx' is not switched yyy" triggers the Program when "not switched yyy" and drives the Else clause because of the "not".

Detail status icon
With one exception, the If evaluation may be different. If Program A does a Run Else for Program B, the Program B Icon will be solid Red while running Else statements even though the If could evaluate as True. The Run Else forces the Else clause to run regardless of whether the If would evaluate as True

Liftmaster 8500 integration. Has anyone accomplished this yet?
dtt255 My door openers are Wayne Dalton which use multi button RF only door controls. Had to do the same attachment you are considering. Has worked for years with Insteon control of detached garage doors. I have experience with small low wattage soldering iron so did the work myself. If you have a usual assortment of neighbors very likely at least one will have the needed soldering iron and experience using it. Using caution the wires can be attached with no damage to door controller.

Program devices vs scenes best practice
* Would the ISY have better data if you called out devices in programs, when possible, rather than scenes? Yes. But Scenes should/do work unless you have Insteon network issues. Doing individual devices brings the devices to the new state one at a time. Much better to use Scenes and fix the Insteon network. * When devices report back there status, how is that used by the ISY? The new Status is associated with the device reporting. * How many device status tables are there in an ISY & PLM network? PLM has no Status information stored for device. All Status information storage handled by ISY (in one place as far as I know).
