what do these setting options in ISY mean for a "Mini Remote Switch" 2342-242?

[someguy]

led and beep are self explanatory, but 

 

ISY gives me these options for settings for the switch:

 

4-scene

8-scene toggle

8-scene non-toggle

 

The pdf on insteon.com indicates that the options should be:

 

1 scene (default)

2 scene toggle

2 scene non-toggle.

I don't really follow what you're asking considering the manual you indicated is for a single button paddle RL2? The options you see in the ISY Series Controller assume its for a 4 / 8 button RL2.

what I am saying is that I have a two button switch.  The ISY knows that I have a two button switch (because it can read the model number as a 2342-242) but the ISY is giving me options for a four or eight button switch.  I believe that the ISY programming is wrong.

What is the result if you select one of the listed options? For example, does the 8 scene toggle actually give you 2 scene toggle?

I dunno about the mini switch (even though I have one!) but the regular 6-button (now called "5 button"...) and 8-button switches can be field-converted between the two configurations. You need the trim kit and you need to do a special reset procedure.

Another possibility is some of the options are not supported by the RemoteLinc model you have.

I have a few modules where some Options are listed for it but not supported. When I try to use the option.  Either nothing happens or I get a warning indicating the Option is not supported in the module in question.

The Mini Remote is different from both a KeypadLinc and a RemoteLinc. Virtually nothing from those devices applies to the Mini Remote.

I don't think I need the trim kit.  The unit works without it.  I don't want to reset it because I already have it programmed to my ISY.  I'll try changing these settings and see what it does.

ISY has made it very simple to factory reset devices when needed.

Factory reset, put in linking mode, if battery device, click on restore in admin console....voila!

I tried changing the unit to one of the three options (four scene, or one of the 8 scene options) and none of them "take".  when I click the radio button while the unit is in programming mode, the radio button won't stay clicked.  I believe there is a bug in ISY.
