Kentinada Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 I have a scene with 4 plugs assigned to it and 2 different RL2440 buttons. One of the plugs shows up in red italics which i believe means it's a controller. Why? I never set it up this way? See attached screen shot.
Michel Kohanim Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Hi Kentinada, It's just an indication that that button can act as a controller. In the case of RLs, it's a controller only button. With kind regards, Michel
Kentinada Posted July 17, 2016 Author Posted July 17, 2016 Not what I mean. The actual plug INSTEON device is showing up in red italics. Doesn't that mean the plug is a controller too? How is that set? Can it be turned off? Why would it be helpful to have on?
G W Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 (edited) You need to identify the "plug" by its device type. Without knowing exactly what this "plug" is, it is difficult to give you the answer. Best regards, Gary Funk Edited July 17, 2016 by GaryFunk
stusviews Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Info only: A "plug" is what's found at the end of a lamp coed (or extension cord). A plug has two blades or two blades and a pin. A plug gets plugged in. The device that receives the plug is called a receptacle or has a device name, such as LampLinc or ApplianceLinc or FilterLinc or even a timer.
Brian H Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 (edited) If you are talking about a Insteon Module that is plugged into an outlet. The model of the module would help. Some of the new models can also act as a controller and show up in Red in the Administrative Console. My 2635-222 On/Off modules can also be linked as a controller to other modules. When their local On or Off buttons are used. So they are shown in Red in the Administrative Console. Even not being ever linked to anything as a Controller in my setup. The 2457D2 Lamp Module can also be a controller. So will be showing as a Red entry. Edited July 17, 2016 by Brian H
