swbrains Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I've got a problem that I just noticed today that I can't seem to figure out, or even how to diagnose: I have a switchlinc dimmer as a controller for my kitchen lights. I have a switchlinc relay controlling my undercabinet lights. When I click on or off the kitchen SL dimmer, it causes the undercabinet light switch to turn off. If I fast-double-click (on or off) the kitchen SL dimmer, it doesn't do anything to the undercabinet lights. If I hold (brighten/dim) the kitchen SL, that also does not affect the undercabinet lights. Only single press on/off causes the undercabinet lights to turn off every time. I tried removing the kitchen SL from all scenes and it still happens. I factory reset the kitchen SL and undercabinet light switch and restored them from the ISY interface, but it still happens. I then turned on my undercabinet lights and opened a diagnostic trace in the ISY interface and turned on the kitchen SL dimmer. Here are the resulting events: Sun 02/15/2015 10:24:24 PM : [ 24 80 14 1] DON 0 Sun 02/15/2015 10:24:24 PM : [ 29 49 FF 1] ST 255 Sun 02/15/2015 10:24:24 PM : [ 24 71 BA 1] ST 140 Sun 02/15/2015 10:24:24 PM : [ 24 17 5E 3] ST 255 Device 24.80.14 is the kitchen SL dimmer The other three addresses are 2 SL dimmers and a keypadlinc that also act as controllers/responders to the kitchen SL dimmer. They are all in a scene together (but not the undercabinet lights) so that several switches can control the kitchen lights. Undercabinet lights are: 1F.B8.33 which doesn't seem to appear in the events that occur when I turn on/off the kitchen SL dimmer and the undercabinet SL relay turns off. Not sure if it matters, but another SL relay that is linked to the "main" undercabinet light relay doesn't change its state when the undercabinet lights turn off due to the kitchen light SL being pressed. It stays on even though the actual SL relay controlling the undercabinet lights turns off when the kitchen light switchlinc is pressed. Since it's not showing the undercabinet light device anywhere in the event log -- but it's turning off nonetheless -- what should I be looking for as the cause for it turning off when the kitchen light is turned on or off? Thanks in advance for any advice... Link to comment
LeeG Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) Do a Show Device Links Table for the SwitchLinc Relay that is reacting. It sounds like it has a half the ISY is not aware of. Edited February 16, 2015 by LeeG Link to comment
swbrains Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) Ok, I got the links but I'm not sure what I'm looking for... I compared it to the ISY Links Table and they are identical. FWIW, here's the level 3 diagnostic output when I turn on the kitchen SL and the undercabinet SL relay turns off: (24.80.14 = Kitchen SL dimmer) Mon 02/16/2015 12:57:09 AM : [iNST-SRX ] 02 50 24.80.14 00.00.01 CF 11 00 LTONRR (00) Mon 02/16/2015 12:57:09 AM : [std-Group ] 24.80.14-->Group=1, Max Hops=3, Hops Left=3 Mon 02/16/2015 12:57:09 AM : [D2D EVENT ] Event [24 80 14 1] [DON] [0] uom=0 prec=-1 Mon 02/16/2015 12:57:09 AM : [ 24 80 14 1] DON 0 Mon 02/16/2015 12:57:10 AM : [iNST-SRX ] 02 50 24.80.14 11.01.01 CF 06 00 (00) Mon 02/16/2015 12:57:10 AM : [std-Group ] 24.80.14-->11.01.01, Max Hops=3, Hops Left=3 Mon 02/16/2015 12:57:10 AM : [iNST-INFO ] Previous message ignored.

swbrains Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 I just did an ISY Link Table for the Kitchen light SL, and it does have a link record with the address of the cabinet light relay in Line 15 (see attached). I have no idea where that link is coming from. Are there any docs on decoding the codes in each line? I searched the site but couldn't seem to find a reference guide for the link table record layout and what each position means. I can see the device address in each line, but don't know what the other columns represent. Link to comment
swbrains Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Well, I'm not sure what caused it, but I ended up deleting both the Kitchen SL dimmer and the cabinet light SL relay and re-adding them as new devices and then adding them back into their respective scenes and that seems to have resolved it.

LeeG Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Link records are Insteon structures. There is an insteondetails.pdf on insteon.com that covers the basic link record. Link to comment
