oberkc Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 Very strange. Same thing happens when you choose, from the device list, the fanlinc and mnually select the speed? Perhaps, as yoy probably suspect, there is some device failure or incompatibility here. These things have worked for me without any of these kinds of issues.
MWareman Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 I had a Fanlinc go bad after working for two years - low and medium would work - but sending a direct 'high' it would shut off. I had to replace it.

I had to replace it. Maybe it's the FanLinc then, I can replace it... but this is what's happening regardless if I manually set it or not. Very strange.

David_Gilbert Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 Replacement FanLinc ordered. Thanks everyone! 1
David_Gilbert Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Final Update: I replaced the FanLinc today and everything is working... looks like "high" was defective after all. Thanks! 2
Ajax Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) OK I am looking for something very similar 1 button push to cycle thru my fanlinc speeds. I created 1 scene that has the fanlinc(responder) and Keypad A(Controller. No load is wired) Keypad button is set to Non toggle ON. With the following programs: Master Fan Low - [iD 0010][Parent 0014] If Control 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' is switched On And Status 'MasterBedroom Fan-Motor' is Off Then Set 'MasterBedroom Fan-Motor' Low Wait 1 second Set 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' 2 (Beep Duration) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') _____________ Master Fan Med - [iD 0011][Parent 0014] If Control 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' is switched On And Status 'MasterBedroom Fan-Motor' is Low Then Set 'MasterBedroom Fan-Motor' Med Wait 1 second Set 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' 2 (Beep Duration) Wait 1 second Set 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' 2 (Beep Duration) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') _____________________ Master Fan Hi - [iD 0012][Parent 0014] If Control 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' is switched On And Status 'MasterBedroom Fan-Motor' is Med Then Set 'MasterBedroom Fan-Motor' High Wait 1 second Set 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' 2 (Beep Duration) Wait 1 second Set 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' 2 (Beep Duration) Wait 1 second Set 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' 2 (Beep Duration) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') ______________________ Master Fan Off - [iD 0013][Parent 0014] If Control 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' is switched On And Status 'MasterBedroom Fan-Motor' is High Then Set 'MasterBedroom Fan-Motor' Off Wait 1 second Set 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' 5 (Beep Duration) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') ____________________ Couple issues, the fan speeds work when I cycle thru them, but the button LED blinks 3 times and no beeping sounds. I would like to have the beep so I know what speed is selected. Also the button LED does not turn off with the OFF program... Thanks Edited October 19, 2016 by Ajax
stusviews Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 The beep command doesn't actually do anything.
Ajax Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 That's too bad figured that would work nice to figure out what speed. I just added to turn the keypad light off: Master Fan Off - [iD 0013][Parent 0014] If Control 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' is switched On And Status 'MasterBedroom Fan-Motor' is High Then Set 'MasterBedroom Fan-Motor' Off Set 'MasterBedroom KeypadA' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
stusviews Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 I actually use a single button to control the FanLinc, except that I mimic the chain, that is, from off to high to medium to low to off
Ajax Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 I like to be the rebel, I use a single button as well, but Low->Med->Hi->Off
larryllix Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 I like to be the rebel, I use a single button as well, but Low->Med->Hi->Off You could change the LED brightness to match the speed. LEDs take scenes for them though. PITA. I like to operate multi-level devices with variables. 0,1,2,3 = off,low,med,high That way other programs can operate the device also by just storing a number into the variable, no jumping into programs that get modified later and then magically don't work.
dbwarner5 Posted October 20, 2016 Author Posted October 20, 2016 Final Update: I replaced the FanLinc today and everything is working... looks like "high" was defective after all. Thanks! David... FYI, i had the same thing happen but it was the MED setting on the fanlinc that went bad.... very frustrating to trouble shoot.. luckily i had another fanlinc that i hadn't installed yet so i swapped them out and proved it was the fan linc not my programming... thanks!
miltmaslin Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) I have just installed two fanlincs with 6 button keypads. I created 3 scenes for each one as follows: 1) Fan on High: -Keypad a, Responder: set to zero -Kepyad b Responder: set to zero -Keypad c Controller: set to 100 -Fanlinc Fan Responder: set to High 2)Fan on Med: -Keypad a, Responder: set to zero -Keypad b, Controller: set to 100 -Keypad c, Responder: set to zero -Fanlinc Fan, Responder set to Med 3)Fan on Low: -Keypad a, Controller: set to 100 -Keypad b, Responder: set to zero -Keypad c, Responder: set to zero -Fanlinc Fan, Responder set to low All scenes work perfectly when I click on or off in that scen on the ISY. However, when i press any of the three buttons on the keypad, all three buttons light up and the fan will run on high. Press any of them a second time and they all turn off and so does the fan.. What is going on here? thanks! I started with this information to add a 6 button keyPad and a FanLinc I came up with the following scenses turning the buttons on and off and the fan speeds work correctly. 1) Fan on High: -Keypad a, Responder: set to zero -Keypad b, Responder: set to zero -Keypad c, Controller: set to 100 -Keypad d, Responder: set to zero -Fanlinc Fan Responder: set to High 2)Fan on Med: -Keypad a, Responder: set to zero -Keypad b, Controller: set to 100 -Keypad c, Responder: set to zero -Keypad d, Responder: set to zero -Fanlinc Fan, Responder set to Med 3)Fan on Low: -Keypad a, Controller: set to 100 -Keypad b, Responder: set to zero -Keypad c, Responder: set to zero -Keypad c, Responder: ser to zero -Fanlinc Fan, Responder set to low 4)Fan on Off: -Keypad d, Controller: set to 100 -Keypad a, Responder: set to zero -Keypad b, Responder: set to zero -Keypad c, Responder: set to zero -Fanlinc Fan, Responder set to low but I could not come up with scenes for the on and off buttons of the KeyPad. any help would be greatly appreciated.
