edokid Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 Hey everyone, I have the IO Linc for the garage which has always worked fine, wired with the relay wires directly into the door button (the cord is too short to go right to the door opener like in the manual). This always worked fine, could use the door control manually or Insteon. I stopped using it months ago though because I wanted to get a new sensor that was NC so the KPL would light up when the door was open vs closed, but had given up and removed everything to just sell it. Long story short I have the NC sensor now and wanted to try again, so hooked it all back up, but no matter what I do now the physical door button gets disabled when I have the IOLinc wired into its 2 wires like before (I didn't even remove the wires before just cut them off to avoid having to unscrew the opener button from the wall). Doesn't matter if I flip them they always disable the button. Pressing Set on the IOLinc opens and closes the door, but for whatever reason the physical door button is always disabled. As soon as I remove the IOLinc relay wires, the garage door opener button LED lights up and it works as normal. Not sure what I'm doing differently here, never had this problem at all when I first got this. I've factory reset the IOLinc and what not, but any other suggestions as to what might cause this? It's just a 1 button, 2 wire door opener, it's not multi function or anything like that.
Brian H Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) You may want to check the Relay Output Mode. It could be the relay is not set to momentary. If it is stays On it will be just like you where holding the button all the time. You also don't want it set to relay follows Sensor Input. Edited August 12, 2016 by Brian H
