I’ve done this numerous times with no success.

Hey guys - so I have a Lanplinc 2457d2 that I am having an issue with. I have been able to link it to my ISY and I can control it properly through the ISY itself. I have also created a scene on the ISY between a a dimmer switch and the lamplinc - that all works. Yay. Now, I created another 2 scenes on the ISY - and in this case, the lamplinc refuses to respond in the scene. I am struggling to figure out why since it responds to the scene with the dimmer - whether controlled from the dimmer or the ISY. I ran a diag and I got this, which shows that comms fail, but I dont understand why... Would anyone have any insight to share

.... ........ ......... this is perfect! This is super simple, but it had never occurred to me to just have the program call itself! Thanks

Yea, I spent a little time looking at this today, and I think you are correct that pyisy is not the culprit, but rather the output of the REST API is likely different enough that when home-assistant receives it, it doesnt know what to do with 1 or 2 fields. Unfortunately, the home-assistant ISY module is written in a way I find hard to follow and the logging isnt giving me anything useful. If I had 2 ISYs, I would likely try and fix the component, but since I dont, I will likely end up staying on 4.6.2 and working around this by using Home-Assistant to do this for me. It wont be anywhere near as neat, but it will take me 1/2 the time

Looks like it was, but their is either a bug or breaking change as home-assistant isnt getting the data it expects from it when querying 5.0.x.

Hmm seems 5.0.10 broke something w/ PyISY or the way it is used in Home-Assistant. Hmm.. EDIT: ok, I am downgrading back to 4.6.2 as Home-Assistant support is broken somewhere Anyone with any ideas on if my request could be accomplished in 4.6.2? Otherwise, I may look at just writing an external script that calls ISY.

Thanks! I upgraded from 4.6.2 to 5.0.10 to give this a shot, but for some reason, it doesnt seem to be working Test slow fade - [ID 001A][Parent 0001] If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then $fade_counter.level = 0 Repeat While $fade_counter.level < 5 Set '1st Floor / Dining Room / Dining Room Micro' On Level '$fade_counter.level %' $[Var 2.4] += 1 Wait 1 second Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Note, I have just testing with Run Then. My expectation is that the light should be incrementing in 1% intervals to 5%, but it never even turns on edit: Nevermind... I just realied I used the wrong setting.. should have been Test slow fade - [ID 001A][Parent 0001] If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then $fade_counter.level = 1 Repeat While $fade_counter.level < 40 Set '1st Floor / Dining Room / Dining Room Micro' On '$fade_counter.level %' $fade_counter.level += 1 Wait 1 second Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

Hey guys - so, I wanted to emulate the transition style of the philips Hue / circadian alarm clocks by creating a slow transition. I tried doing this but just setting the ramp rate to 8 minutes, but since I only want to dim to 40%, it seems the logic doesnt properly and it instead takes ~2.5 minutes. Not sure why, but anyways, I figured a more controllable way to do this would just be to execute a program on schedule that would just increment the brightness by y% every x seconds; however, from the looks of it, there is no way to either say current onlevel +y% nor is there a way to use a variable as the on target. Any one know any way to accomplish this?

Ah ok. I have some spare 2477Ds lying around. When I have some time I will replace it.

Thanks! Ok, so that actually is exactly what I did- but it’s not working. I wonder if it’s a problem with the switchlinc or my config.. or an issue on 4.6.2. Maybe I’ll give v5 a shot Edit: I just tried this with a 2477D and it worked perfectly... Anyone know if this is some limitation of a 2476D (v.27)?

Thanks. I’m on 4.6.2, but it occurs to me I may have omitted an important fact. I don’t want the program to turn the light on- just set the on- level. The paddles on the switch should be the only thing that turn the light actually on or off. If that is what you were talking about, what action would i specific in a program? I used scene as it was the only way I could see to set the on- level without turning on the light.

Hey guys - I have a room for which I want to change the On-Level of a 2476D on a schedule. It is the only device in the room. What I TRIED to do (and failed) was create a scene in which that 2476D is the only device and the controller - and then I have a program to update the scene and the device to the correct on level; I have tried applying the program to the scene directly and the device; however while the scene gets updated properly, the device maintains its locally set on-level. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

Just installed a 2476D and it's definitely happening less frequently, but it is happening. I'll see how annoying this gets and if need be, replace the humidity switch. Thanks so much for your help, guys!

Nope. Yea, that is what my guess was - I just wasnt sure if this was crazy talk or not... but seems it isnt. Thanks, I was assuming powerline was the issue, but this could be something to try... I may actually have a 2476D somewhere. I believe I read that this is powerline only, is that correct? I also have a 2-wire, but all of sudden ISY cant communicate with it.. I think it died

So, I have an odd issue... I installed a 2477d Switchlinc in a double gang box w/ a humidity sensing fan switch. Now, whenever the switchlinc has its settings updated (switch I do twice daily to change the on level), the fan cycles on and off anywhere from 1-3 times. I really have no clue what is happening here. Turning on the switch manually or via insteon command doesnt appear to have any affect.
