Start a program when button is pressed, another program when status reaches 100%

Hello.

 

How can I start two programs that don't start at the same time?

1) When I turn the button ON of a KPL (status changes to 100%) then I want to turn on the LIFX bulb

 

2) When the status is at 25% (any percent actually) and I 

a) Keep the button pressed until it Brightens up to 100%

B) Double press the button so it FAST ON to 100%

 

In this case, these should be two events.

 

I already have to programs ready for this, however, they both activate when I do either 1 or 2

 

I was trying to do it with the CONTROL in ISY but that is not working maybe I need to learn something.

 

Anybody has done this?
One action when Button ON pressed

Another action when you dim it to 100% or fast-on?

 

Thanks!

Certainly it is easy enough to distinguish between ON and FASTON in a program and take different actions as a result. I am not so confident that one can create a condition based upon 100% status, but only if arrived to by ramping up. That would be a bit trickier.

Don't use "status" from the dimmer electronics  to trigger programs. Use "control" from the mechanical button.

 

With "control" you are triggering on one of the six unique signals an Insteon button puts out.

ON, Fast On, Brighten, Off, Fast Off, Dim.

 

My gathering rom light programs have 8 different levels and scenes from one SwitchLinc dimmer.
