Jason Flippin Posted November 29, 2014 Posted November 29, 2014 I replaced one of my dimmer switches with the keypad linc and would like to get the keypad linc to takeover that dimming function. I am trying to use the first button as the Main On/Off for the switch and buttons 3 & 4 as the Bright/Dim functions. I have tried a number of different searches to find an example then tried to guess my way through setting it up in the ISY but haven't had much success other than the On/Off. If someone could help lead me down the right path, I would appreciate it!
stusviews Posted November 29, 2014 Posted November 29, 2014 Is the KeypadLinc a dimmer? If so, then the Main On/Off buttons include bright and dim ability. If you additionally want to use button 3 & 4 to brighten and dime exclusively, then you'll need to create two programs, one for each function.
Jason Flippin Posted November 29, 2014 Author Posted November 29, 2014 Well, that was easy, I didn't realize the main button would dim as well! Thanks!
jsb0812 Posted November 29, 2014 Posted November 29, 2014 You can also hold down the button to initiate the dimming feature as well. If its too dim then release and press hold and again.
EricK Posted November 29, 2014 Posted November 29, 2014 If there is a specific dim level that you want then you can create a scene with the main button as a responder and one of the secondary buttons as a controller. Set the on level on ramp rate for the main lights in the scene. Be sure to click on the red text for the Kpl button name in the scene to set response levels when it is used as the controller.
Jason Flippin Posted November 29, 2014 Author Posted November 29, 2014 Yeah, I think I will do a preset scene at 75% or so. Thanks for the tips everyone
