3-Way Switchlincs - Not Quite

[shadowb]

I have two sets of 3-way Switchlincs 2477D fairly new that behave exactly the same way but not quite correctly.  I linked them before I got my ISY994i and after I installed the ISY I reset them, removed the links and relinked them via ISY - still getting the same behavior.

 

The Switchlinc where the load is connected will go from zero to the preset Dim level on the first press then to Full on on the second press, as intended.  The other Switchlinc will go from zero to the preset Dim level on the first press but on the second press only the LED's go to Full on, the lamps stay at the Dim level. 

 

Before I start trying to decode Link Tables anyone have an explanation/solution?

"The other Switchlinc will go from zero to the preset Dim level on the first press but on the second press only the LED's go to Full on, the lamps stay at the Dim level. "

 

Is this when the "other" SwitchLinc is pressed On?

 

If so the described action is normal Insteon operation.   The non-load SwitchLinc turns the load SwitchLinc On because it is a Responder to the non-load SwitchLinc.  The load SwitchLinc turns On to the Responder On Level.  The Responder On Level does not change regardless of the number of times non-load SwitchLinc is turned On.  For the non-load SwitchLinc to turn the load SwitchLinc full On requires a fast double tap of non-load paddle to generate a Fast On.

Very good LeeG - Thanks!  I suspected it was normal behavior because I'm sure they are wired and programmed correctly, but I had not thought about trying double-tap.  

 

So marvelous getting almost instant answers to my questions - I'm very impatient!  : )

You can also press and hold the up paddle on the non-load switch and that will bring both switches up to full brightness as per your ramp rate speed.
