Insteon switch doesn't work (event list showing lots of activity)

I have a simple insteon switch on my back porch. Suddenly it will not turn on anymore and the LED Tx light is flickering (I had turned on Tx blinking to diagnose another problem). When I look at the ISY Event Log, I see a stream of the following:

 

Wed 01/13/2016 07:58:50 AM : [  2A 54 16 1]      DOF   1

 
Wed 01/13/2016 07:58:51 AM : [iNST-SRX    ] 02 50 2A.54.16 00.A4.01 CF 13 01    LTOFFRR(01)
 
Wed 01/13/2016 07:58:51 AM : [std-Group   ] 2A.54.16-->Group=1, Max Hops=3, Hops Left=3
 
Wed 01/13/2016 07:58:51 AM : [D2D EVENT   ] Event [2A 54 16 1] [DOF] [1] uom=0 prec=-1

 

repeating over and over. Can somebody tell me what these events are saying or point me to a reference? Other thoughts about what might be happening? Really weird.

Try a power cycle reset first. Pulling the Set Button Out for ten or more seconds. Then pushing the set button into its normal position. Will do a power reset. Just don't push the button all the way in. That is a factory reset.  If its electronics where confused by a noise burst. The reset would reset it to normal.

 

We have seen other reports of such actions and it was a failed device. Most likely its power supply. In that case replacement was needed. If less than two years old. A warranty replacement should be possible.

Thanks Brian. I didn't quite understand what you were saying about *pulling* the set button. First, it's hard to "pull" without good fingernails. Second when I pulled it, it doesn't seem to move. BUT I can also tell you that I had already removed the hot lead from the switch (so it was not powered and would stop causing noise on my network throughout the day while I wasn't home). Thus I believe I did the same thing.

 

All that said, it's back to normal.
