nokin Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 I have a Insteon scene that includes three keypads (two 2334-2 8 button keypad dimmers and one 2487s keypad relay) controling my garage ceiling lights. My ISY programing problem is I added a motion sensor 2842-222 to turn the lights off. No problem turning the lights off. However, the individual buttond on the two 8 button keypays do not stay synced. How do I keep all buttond within the scean in sync. The ISY programing THEN command does not allow me to change the state of the buttons on the 8 button keypads. It only allows me to adjust the backlighting.
apostolakisl Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 To turn KPL buttons on and off you need to create a scene and put the button in the scene. Then turn the scene off.
nokin Posted December 13, 2014 Author Posted December 13, 2014 Thanks for the reply. i am missing somthing! I have a scene to turn the KLP buttons off. That is how I have been keeping them Synced The scene works fine when anyone of the buttons is pushed. I an ubable or maybe I just don't understand how to turn the scene off usung ISY programing.
EricK Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Right click on the program name in the admin console and select copy to clipboard. Post the program, select code and paste in the the Pop up box.
apostolakisl Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 To turn KPL buttons on and off you need to create a scene and put the button in the scene. Then turn the scene off. If you are only getting an option to change the backlight level, then you are not tuning a scene on/off.
stusviews Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 If Status 'button x' is On Then Set Scene 'button scene' On Else Set Scene 'button scene' Off
Banichi Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 It sounds to me like the motion sensor program's "then" statement is set to control the garage lights device and not set to control the scene. That would be my guess. I don't have any motion sensors to be able to see what conditions are available in the if statement so I can't know exactly what is going on but that's what I'd guess is your problem.But if you post the code then that would certainly help.
nokin Posted December 15, 2014 Author Posted December 15, 2014 Thanks again for the help. Everything is working property now. I needed someone to point me in the right direction and you did. I was trying to control a device and not the scene.
