Suggestion for Admin Console

A request for the admin console:  Would it be possible to change the device type selection list to be ordered by the actual Insteon product model, such as 2477, etc.?   The list is extremely long and ordering by the current method (whatever the codes in brackets are) doesn't really help one find the desired item.  When you're doing this over and over to add new devices, it gets quite frustrating trying to find the desired device.

 

Thanks!

Click on Type at the top of the column to sort. Click again to sort in the opposite order.

I haven't used the list in months. I'm curious as to what devices are you adding that can't be added automaticly?

Gary,  I am trying to add a new 2477S that is having trouble linking (couldn't determine insteon device type).  One of the diagnostic measures was to specify the device type and also try auto-detect.  Since auto-detect wasn't working, I was trying to add it (attempted several times before giving up).  Each time I had to reselect the device type and it was difficult to find int the long list.

 

Stu, Perhaps we're talking about a different list?  I have no column headers to click on.  I'll attach a screenshot...

If ISY can't determine the type this usually means it can't communicate with it properly

Try using auto detect and type in the device address xx.xx.xx

 

If that doesn't work then you may have a communication issue with the device

Thanks techman -- i have been entering the device address in all attempts, both with auto-detect and without auto-detect.  Seems to be a comm issue...  I'm just not sure anything has changed since initial installation so I'll need to start eliminating things...  :)
