Hi Upstatemike, That is exactly what I am trying to do. And because of the "lack of insteon parts available" I have to take one out of the wall, and put in a six that I had there. In most of my house, the "in-wall" switches are just hooked up hot and neutral then I have a box at each track light with a dimmer in it. I have 34 track bars in the house all with their own dimmers. Outside I have inline-link relay with sense, but it never really worked well enough, I had them ganged so if anyone moved then it was supposed to turn on the whole thing. I think maybe Micros would have worked better. With Thanks, Devon

Dear MMB, I think mine must be high voltage as they are normally connected to the light and come on. So the relay must be inside my light. I appreciate the help. Devon

Hi All, I know I should call Smarthome but I thought there would be a lot more expertise here. I want to hook a Insteon Relay Switch and a Motion Sensor in parallel. I am assuming since its a relay linc that applying 120v to the load of the switch should not be a problem, even in the off position. I wonder what others think. Any reason not to do this. I used to have a sensing In-line linc up there but it's gone, and with the demise of Insteon I can't buy another one. I'm literally going to take a RelayLink Switch right out of the wall and put a different switch in there that I have. I really appreciate it, Devon

Greetings, Using the Scenes I have a lot of Scenes that on is meant to be a "mood scene" where I set a Movie Scene and I have a bunch of buttons and lights. It seems like the command is sending Fast On because the lights and buttons are either on or off. Am I missing something?? Devon

Hello, Following the network security document, it said to "set http-client mode to "verify" when I did that. It would not log onto the portal. But there was also a whole section on importing Certificates. I tried using firefox going to the site, and exporting the certificates in the whole chain as X.509 PEM but they would not import into the isy-994i. Can you suggest where to get the chain. Why not build it into a software update, manual CA registration... Geesh. We do like the ISY to Alexa integration. Devon

Good point, I was hoping to get a slow ramp rate, I got "instant on" MakeSunShineInBasement - [iD 0006][Parent 0001] If On Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri Time is 7:30:00AM Or On Sun Time is 9:00:00AM Then Set Scene 'Dionte-Good-Morning' On Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') ​

Hi All, I have seen this discussed, but I couldn't find the answer. I want a scene that ramps over the 9 minutes that turns on the house in the morning. So I created a "Wake-up" program, and expected that when I went "On" instead of "Fast On" that it would ramp. Any help would be appreciated, Devon

Ok that worked but I don't want to set them locally I want to set them centrally. Devon

Hi All, I am just trying this, never tried it before. What I am trying to do is get a single click to turn on the light 70% and double click 100%. So I did this in my bathroom where I set the ON rate at 70% in the device. Then test doing on, fast on and it works perfect from the ISY. When I go to the device the ISY reports that the device is on at 70% but it is outputting 100% and so is the device. The device I am trying this with is a 2477D v.40 What am I doing wrong? Devon

Hi All, I have done 3 house installations and all of them have an ISY-99i in them. #1 There is no other effective way to manyage ISY. #2 90% + of the programming can be done so that it still works with out the ISY on. #3 ISY shows week spots on wiring. Likely something plugged in interferring with the Insteon signals. #4 Great diagnostics. #5 Great Support. Each of my installs have more than 50 devices in it. Very easy to manage. DS

Michel, I do have a problem with both Thermostats. What do I do now. 1. Drop them from the ISY. 2. Turn off ??? 3. Relink. Devon.

I have installed two Venstar thermostats and while I can read the values it doesn't seem to respond to me setting them. It just stays the way it was, I wonder if I missed a step. 1. Hook up Thermo's (professionally done) 2. Hook up AC points 3. Put ISY in linking mode 4. Press Set button 5 seconds. 5. Rename to something logical. 6. Monitor. I note the heat / cool state has to cycle before it shows up. Setting it says it is setting the Insteon device, but I don't see it on the screen of the Venstar. Issues? ? Devon

Mitch Can you give me an example oaf how the fade stop should work? Is there someway for me to see what a button is throwing off as commands? Devon

Hi Guys, I have this bit of code... If Control 'Great Room / GR-TopOfStairs-KPL.1.1' is switched Bright Or Control 'Great Room / GR-TopOfStairs-KPL.1.1' is switched Fade Up Then Resource 'Living Room - Sonos Volume Up' Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') If you wait 5-10 seconds between keypress you can control the volume Shouldn't this be so that as you hod it, every once and a while it keeps sending the volume up???? Virtual Controllers... Devon

Thanks guys for the suggestions. I am going to try a solution (well tonight) to hard to program lights during the day. Tim, I tried the double press on, but I have all LED lights. The double press the lights are "linked" and they come on full then go off. I suppose I could take the controller out of the scene and then have the ISY run it all. But since this double on function is only going to exist in 4 places (the adult places) then it might be worth it. But the ISY is not as "Instant" as Insteon. I really appreciate all the help and I will post the final solution if I get it. I am going to try the simpler solution first rather than a programmable folder. Thats a bit above me. Devon
