Insteon Mini Remote Switch Model 2342-242 Unsupported

[Automate the World]

Just went to Smarthome and got a new mini-remote and when I try to link to the ISY it says device not supported...Is there a workaround for this or am I just out of luck?

 

thanks so much in advance!

 

V1.7 1518

 

The actual error message is, "The following devices could not be added" XX.XX.XX Unsupported Device: 0.28

- Device is not currently supported"

 

My ISY is UD994 v4.2.30

[LeeG]

What level UI?

[Automate the World]

Same. UI v4.2.30

[Teken]

Same. UI v4.2.30

 

You're a little behind in firmware so at this point just in case I would update to the latest 4.3.6: http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/16258-release-436-rc3-is-now-available/

 

Also, if you haven't hard reset the device I would give that a go and make sure you're close to the PLM when you try to add it.

[andyf0]

Are you using the Link Management pull-down and selecting Link RemoteLinc2 rather than just Start Linking...

[Automate the World]

I've tried it through link remotelinc2, add device and linking to no avail. Not sure I want to go onto a BETA build just for a remote as everything is working (except the new remote) right now.

[stusviews]

Have you tried auto-linking or by ID?

[Automate the World]

Upgraded to the latest beta firmware, tried auto linking and by ID and still the same error message. Anyone else?

This was only suggested because often times newer devices are not listed in the data base. Thus, the only solution is to upgrade to a newer firmware build.

 

Have you hard reset the mini remote afterwards have you placed it next to the PLM for linking?

I hear ya, thank you for the suggestion. The PLM is about 2 feet from me so I don't think that is an issue.

A couple of things just in case please insure the mini remote is fully charged. Hard reset the remote per the users manual. Once both of the above are done place the remote into linking mode and try linking the device again.

 

Run a level 3 error report and post it back up here for others for review.

The Mini Remote is reporting a subgroup number that is not in the list of supported devices on 4.3.6.

 

Tue 06/16/2015 05:18:04 PM : [iNST-SRX    ] 02 50 35.A0.53 00.1C.38 8B 02 17           (17)  [00.1C] hex or dec 00.28

 

Either Smartlabs has introduced a new subcat value or the device is sending a scrambled number.   Suggest doing a factory reset of Mini Remote and add it again.   If it continues to report 00.1C hex, 00.28 dec open a ticket with UDI so they can add support for new device. 

[Automate the World]

Fully Charged, Factory Reset, no dice.

[Techman]

The 2342-242 is a mini remote (single node) switch, not a RemoteLinc2. 

 

Did you try to add it using auto discover?

[Automate the World]

I think I've tried everything here is the output when I use auto-discover;

The 2342-242 is a mini remote (single node) switch, not a RemoteLinc2. 

 

 

Actually, RemoteLinc 2 is the original name of the Mini Remote.

Thanks for your help here, how do I go about letting the know? Do SmartLabs and UD not talk to each other?

[LeeG]

Open a Ticket to UDI and reference this forum topic.   Some of the device characteristics have been made available to the public, other information is still confidential.   UDI knows who to contact.

Hi alphamale78,

 

The issue is as LeeG suggested: the device is reporting 0x1C (28) for its sub category. There's no such a device in our database:

DEV_SCAT_REMOTE_LINC_2_KEYPAD_4=0x10,

DEV_SCAT_REMOTE_LINC_2_SWITCH=0x11,

DEV_SCAT_REMOTE_LINC_2_KEYPAD_8=0x12,

 

I suspect there's something wrong with this device or perhaps we have not been notified of a change. I am going to send an email to SmartHome but, at the moment, I think it's best to get a replacement.

 

With kind regards,

Michel

[barrygordon]

I am having the same issue. My older RemoteLinc 2 units are software v1.5 1445;  v1.4 1312;  and v1.2 1138.  The new RemoteLinc 2 units are all v1.7 1450.

 

The error message returned is "Unsupported Device 0.26"

[LeeG]

barrygordon

 

Can you confirm the unsupported message is 0.26 or 0.28.  

 

Also were they purchased from Smarthome or other supplier?   The original OP has 0.28 units with a 2015 manufacture date.  Your units are from 2014 which is odd if they just came from Smarthome.
