Elburn Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 My goal is that when the A button on the 6 button key link is pressed to run this program which it does. What I can not get it to do is un toggle the A button so show that it is done. The 10 sec will be changed to 10 min or whatever to allow someone leaving to hit his button to turn the foyer lights on and driveway lights on for 10min then turn them off. I have tried setting off and currently calling a program to turn it off but the LED on the button is still on. Any help is appreciated. The scene only has the A button in it and nothing else. If Status 'Foyer Switch - A' is On And Program 'MH Driveway Timer' is False Then Set 'Foyer Switch' On Set 'Foyer Switch - A' On Set 'Foyer Relay' On Set 'Driveway-Relay' On Wait 15 seconds Set 'Foyer Relay' Off Set 'Driveway-Relay' Off Set 'Foyer Switch' Off Run Program 'New Program' (Then Path) In Scene 'Foyer' Set 'Foyer Switch - A' 0% (On Level) Else Set 'Foyer Switch - A' Fast Off NEW PROGRAM If - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition') Then Set 'Foyer Switch - A' Fast Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oberkc Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Try a couple of changes IfControl 'Foyer Switch - A' is On. <<< And Program 'MH Driveway Timer' is False Then Set 'Foyer Switch' On Set 'Foyer Switch - A' On. <<< Set 'Foyer Relay' On Set 'Driveway-Relay' On Wait 15 seconds Set 'Foyer Relay' Off Set 'Driveway-Relay' Off Set scene 'Foyer' off. << Else. <<< The biggest change is probably the last statement in you THEN path. The statement you had simply changed the pre-set ON levels (the level to which the device goes when an ON command is recieved). Instead, find the other statement which actuall turns off the scene.

LeeG Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Secondary KeypadLinc buttons cannot be turned On or Off with Direct commands. Assign KeypadLinc Secondary button A as a Responder in an ISY Scene. Turn the Scene Off to turn KeypadLinc Secondary button A Off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oberkc Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 LeeG, Elburn I understood the scene 'foyer' to be the scene created to control button A. Is this correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeG Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I have way to know what devices are assigned to Scene Foyer. Whatever purpose was envisioned for Scene Foyer it is not being used to manage Secondary button A Set 'Foyer Switch - A' On Else Set 'Foyer Switch - A' Fast Off Then Set 'Foyer Switch - A' Fast Off It seems unlikely the OP understands the need to control Secondary buttons with Scenes if Foyer was defined for that purpose and not used along with using several Direct commands targeted at button A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elburn Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 LeeG, Elburn I understood the scene 'foyer' to be the scene created to control button A. Is this correct? Yes also being a newbe I do not total understand the relation between scenes and programs. When you would use a scene and not a program. But I understand currently is that scenes are mostly used to adj levels of lighting but most of this is still a mystery to me. But yes was that is why I thought to create the scene.

LeeG Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 This is not a question of using a Scene versus using a Program. The Program is used. Rather than issuing Direct commands to turn button A On/Off, Set Scene xxxx On/Off is used in the Program to turn button A On/Off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oberkc Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I have way to know what devices are assigned to Scene Foyer True, except that I thought this was what he told us in the original post. In fact, I thought scene FOYER WAS to mange button a. If so, I was concerned that your initial response may have been confusing. If I misunderstood, then mine would be the confusing post.

LeeG Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 If the only device in Foyer is button A then use Set Scene Foyer On to turn button A On Set Scene Foyer Off to turn button A Off The Adjust Scene statement affects the Responder On Level. It should not set the Responder On Level to 0% as that prevents the KeypadLinc button from being turned On if a Set Scene Foyer On is coded It is Insteon that requires a Scene be used to turn a Secondary button On/Off. This has nothing to do with the ISY beyond needing to code a Scene rather than a Direct command oberkc You are absolutely right. I missed that last point. Thanks.

It was my attempt to control button A since this is the only device in the scene. Would this be correct thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like LeeG said, secondary keypad buttons do not respond to ISY direct commands, unlike most other devices. Putting each into a scene is a winning strategy!
