  1. Can anyone tell me what's the length of the Serial PLM Kit cable? For some reason UD felt it more pertinent to only provide the weight of the cable an not the length. Also, was wondering if this cable length and the use of USB limits the maximum distance a PLM can be from the EISY? Or can I simply create an extension using RJ45 adapters and Cat5e cable? Thanks for helping.
  2. Yeah by not putting manual at the end of my searches all I was getting was to smarthome and or insteon caches which are not connecting. Thanks for patience! BTW - almost all you will want is on www.manualsdir.com
  3. I would like to get the docs associated with the 2443-222 micro switch, 2477D, 2334-235 and the 2466dw. I looked at the collection on pyinsteon and that seemed more developer-centric than user centric. Anyone have these?
  4. I'm interested in the IO Linc...
  5. So is there a listing of capacitors for replacement?
  6. Thanks for the info! You think the old version has any real issues?

  8. I just received a purchase from eBay seller: IO Link 2540 or device 43. Is this a legit Insteon device or did I get a bootleg? My original which is fried has an Insteon label on it vs this smart home branding. This one is v1.9 1223..am I gonna have issues with it?
  9. Would disconnecting the load lead from the KPL be sufficient, it's hot as hades up in that attic right now?
  10. Yes, all that is happening. I was able to manually link the KPL to another device, so the KPL isn't bad. So I guess its onto noise factors. This particular circuit has 3 gfci receptacles and the undercabinet leds driven by the magnetic dimmable led driver that is connected to the load. Am thinking that I need to start on this circuit to eliminate the various factors. Other advice?
  11. I gapped, factory reset, started linking and pressed until chirp - no love. What's the chance that the KPL is just bad?
  12. The above is the thread on my dimmable driver, I believe it was Mr. Bill that stated that the driver may be incorrect. KPL wasn't part of my backup "Anyway, restored my ISYfrom back up, version was pre-kpl circuit, so I figured I would just reprogram the KPL." Am thinking if this is a communication issue, restoring from back up might not work anyway. https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/30697-6key-kpl-dimming-issue/?do=findComment&comment=297018
  13. I have searched the forum and wiki, cannot seem to add a 2334-235 KPL to my ISY994izw. The KPL is about a year old and controls my under cabinet LEDs. All had been working fine, until I discovered my ISY wasn't connecting to my network. Unfortunately, I had set the ISY up with a manual IP address and had a reasonably good back-up, I hard reset my ISY. Later, determined that my ethernet cable had become loose - smack the head, check to see if the car has gas in it! Anyway, restored my ISYfrom back up, version was pre-kpl circuit, so I figured I would just reprogram the KPL. Air gapped it, factory reset the KPL several times. Updated my software to 4.9.... Can't seem to determine the engine. Moved my PLM to a different position in the house, cannot determine engine. Placed the PLM in the receptacle that feeds the power to the switch (the KPL and receptacle are in the same dual gang box), cannot determine engine. I don't have a big installation, just a couple of micro switches, 3 2477's dual band all within 20 feet of the KPL, 4 lamplincs , 1 iolinc and a phase coupler. By the way, the load on the KPL is a LED dimmable driver ( I have been informed that it is the wrong type - magnetic but it has been working). I've read the posts that say most issues are noise related, but before I go and unplug everything in my house given what I have done so far is it fairly reasonable to assume that I have a dead KPL?
  14. Lilyoyo1 Thanks for your reply. I'm going to clarify by cutting down the variables based on your feedback. 1) I want to be able to dim the strip lights but I don't want any color control. 2) I will need a dimmable driver as alluded to above 40W/Magnitude 3) My wife is going to insist on counter top control from a "switch" 4) Can I use a KPL by itself to act as a switch or do I need a KPL coupled with a dimmable ballast? 5) Alternatively, I have a dimming Toggle Link on that circuit and have no problems now (it controls an LED spot and does well). In fact I am likely going to add 2 more toggle links to other non-led switches on that circuit to control incandescents above the island and breakfast table - does that change your equation about "interference" any? Scene control is less important than local control and abilty to dim the lights.
