Set LED to always be on

[to_lighter]

Hi gang,

 

I want one button's LED on an 8-way pad to always be lit. Can anyone suggest a method to do this? I've discovered you can't check the status of an LED, only of the load that is controlled. In this case, the button does not directly control a load.

 

Cheers!

Seems like an odd request, most people use buttons as indicators.

 

Press the button so it is illuminated and use the admin console to set the button to non-toggle. From then on the button will only send On commands.

Thanks Rand,

 

I'm programming a "We're Home" function that doesn't toggle lights, it only turns a set of lights on. I'm teaching the kids to push that button when they arrive home. One option is for that button to light up when we leave home (i.e. hit the lights off button). The other option is to make sure it is lit up all the time. I know how to do the first option, but I did not know how to do the second until you posted your instructions. Thanks!

 

Cheers!
