I have a basement with 4 banks of lights. The lights are on separate Insteon 2477S due to load restrictions. Basically I have a 8KPL that I wan to do the following:

 

1. the main on/off to turn on/off all 4 2477S (basically a all on/off button for my whole basement) I created this as a scene and it worked great!

2. I want to also be able to turn on/off the 4 banks independently with 4 of the other buttons.. but when I troed to do this the ISY stated that the 2477S was already in a scene and to only make it a responder..

 

what am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks!

Thats OK. A device can only be a controller of one scene but can be a responder to many.

 

What you need to to do is:

 

Remove the 2477S's from your first scene and add them back as Responders leaving only the KPL-A as controller.

 

make 4 more scenes as follows:

 

1) KPL Button B as Controller and a 2477S as Controller.

2) KPL Button C as Controller and another 2477S as as Controller.

3) KPL Button D as Controller and another 2477S as as Controller.

4) KPL Button E as Controller and another 2477S as as Controller.

 

In addition, you should add the KPL Buttons B,C,D and E to the first scene that you created as responders for the All On/Off scene. The ISY will tell you that these are all already controllers of another scene and allow you to add as responders.

 

Hope that helps.
