KeypadLinc causing Fanlinc to go to High

[rrehart]

I have a bit of a unique problem. I recently had to rebuild my PLM (thank you Danu1964 for the instructions). After I rebuilt and restored it, all of my scenes ceased work. Not a big deal, I just rebuilt the 30 or so I have. All of the individual device commands worked just fine, and all devices reported. So far, so good. But...

 

Even after restoring the PLM and rebuilding the scenes, I have found that the physical KeypadLinc buttons all cause my fan motor to go to "High" on the three ceiling fans in my network. For instance, if I press the (6-key) KeypadLinc "B" button - associated to Scene "Office Fan Low", with the "B" button being the controller and A, C, D, and the fan motor being responders, the motor goes to "High". The scene (in the admin console) reflects that the "B" button is on, and the fan motor is on High.

 

The scene itself is working, as I can execute it either directly from the admin console or the MobiLinc app on my phone (configured for my.isy.io) and it properly turns the motor to "Low" and the "B" button to "On"

 

This is happening on every KeypadLinc/FanLinc combo I have, so I seriously doubt its the hardware.

 

As to the KeypadLinc programming, I am using Scenes, not groupings, and have all of the buttons programmed to "Non-toggle [on]". This is exactly how it was programmed prior to the PLM going out; which was working for 3 1/2 years.

 

I have tried deleting and re-adding the:

1. Associated Scenes

2. The FanLinc

3. The KeypadLinc

 

I have also tried via buttons grouping with no luck. I have attached screenshots here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Thanks.

Select each button in each scene, not just the scene itself and verify each buttons setting (i.e., all responders for each and every controller).

Well... duh! Thank you. Can't believe I missed that one.

I'm having a similar problem in that the scene works fine, but the fan does not turn on from any of the button speeds. Here's the strange part. If I turn on the fan from the console or from Mobilinc, the keypadlinc does turn the fan off! The keypadlinc was giving problems, so I did a factory reset, then restored. It was after the restore that it stopped working correctly. Does it sound like I need to delete the scenes and start over?

No, you don't have to delete and start over. On the specific button ("fan High", for instance) of the KPL just click the button "Copy Scene attributes from [name of scene]". That will copy down the "off" state for the other buttons and set the fanlinc to the proper setting (in this example "High"). Do that for each button and everything will work fine.

Very good instructions. I think I did as instructions said by clicking on the controller in the scene, then clicking Copy Scene Attributes. However, the buttons still did not control the scene. It still worked fine from the ISY. Did I miss or misunderstand something?

I always click on each and every device in the scene to determine what that specific device is doing.

Sorry that I forgot to update the status of this post, but after a few days, it started working correctly. Has worked correctly since.
