Cannot determine Insteon Engine - Motion Sensor

Recommended Posts

I am running ISY 994i IR/Pro with PLM v9C (Firmware: 4.2.16). I've got the following errors when trying to add Motion Sensor and Mini Remote:

 

- Cannot determine Insteon Engine

- Cannot determine device link table addres

 

With other dual-band devices like Switch Linc or Open Close, my ISY 994i and PLM work fine.

 

I know someone has posted the same problems on this forum but i still need a help to solve my issue.

 

Thanks

Both of those devices are battery powered.   Put the Motion Sensor into linking mode using the Motion Sensor Set button.  Use New INSTEON Device, enter Insteon address of Motion Sensor, Name of choice, and Auto Discover.  Be sure Motion Sensor is near a Dual Band device.  Being near Dual Band 2413 PLM is good.   When New INSTEON Device is complete be sure to take Motion Sensor out of linking mode before following the same procedure for the Mini Remote.

Already done what you said above but it still doesn't work.

Run Tools | Diagnostics | Event Viewer at LEVEL 3.

 

Follow steps in post 2, attempt to add Motion Sensor. Post the event trace.

 

Be sure event trace is set for LEVEL 3. Below is from the previous trace which was not at LEVEL 3. Note the 25 second gap in trace where the LEVEL 3 information should be.

The attempt to add an 8 Scene RemoteLinc 2 failed to receive an Extended message showing size/location of the device link database. The Red message below is missing from your trace.

Was the V.9C PLM obtained from Smarthome recently?
