  1. I stand corrected. The code is: If Status 'Kitchen lights' is off And Control 'Kitchen lights' is switched on And from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM then Set 'Kitchen Lights' 100% Else No Actions If STATUS is off and it says it is being turned ON.
  2. ok - I went back and tore apart all my settings and found some of the issue and changed it a bit. Now it works. One possible solution that works (what I did): 1) Select the switch and set it to come on at 10% lighting. Save and TEST it! You press the on button 1 time and it should come on at 10% lighting. 2) Write program: If Control 'Kitchen lights' is off And Control 'Kitchen lights' is switched on And from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM then Set 'Kitchen Lights' 100% Else No Actions Since we have the default brightness set to 10%, the else clause does not need to do anything at all. Using this, I press the button and the come on dim - ALWAYS. Then the program runs and checks the time. If the time is between 7AM and 10PM, the brightness is adjusted to 100%. I had too many places I had made changes/adjustments to various settings and they interfered with each other. I suspect I could also add the setting for kitchen lights to 10% in the else statement. Testing has shown me this works but in this case we always come on to 100% and about 0.5 seconds later, we shift to 10%. I prefer coming on at 10% and then increasing to 100% about 05 seconds later. Many thanks to all of you for your assistance.
  3. I want to come in to my kitchen and turn the lights on. When the time is between 2200 and 0700 the next day, I want them to come on at a lower preset level. Any other time the lights are turned on at the *light switch*, I want them to come on at 100%.
  4. Omission on my part. I do have next day in the statement. I will try adding the else 100% tonight when I get home.
  5. Hello, I am using an insteon 2477D switch and to have have it set to come on at 10% between 10pm and 7am, but come on at 100% and be under the dimmer switch control outside of this time. My program is: If Control 'Kitchen lights' is switched on And from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM then Set 'Kitchen Lights' 10% Else No Actions At this point, they *always* come on at 10%. The whole idea is simply that you walk into the kitchen at 0-dark-thirty and instead of blinding yourself, the lights come on very dimmed. But any other time, they come on at 100%. Obviously, I am missing something here. Any suggestions?
