to_lighter Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Hi gang, I have a bunch of new switches (some dimmers, some switches). I'm having a lot of trouble adding the new devices. For many, I get an error while linking about "Cannot determine Insteon engine". Also, some of the switches can't be auto-added. Normally I use "Start Linking". When you press the tab on the controller, the switch will be recognized by the ISY software. However, for some of these switches, holding down the tab doesn't lead to it being seen by the ISY. Instead, it just shows a blinking green light on the switch. Any ideas? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Kohanim Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Hi to_lighter, Those errors are INSTEON communication related (either signal or noise). What I normally recommend is: 1. If RF, make sure in programming mode 2. Move the PLM to a different outlet and one which is not shared with other power supplies and transformers With kind regards, Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
to_lighter Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 Thanks! It looks like the problem was my ancient PLM. A replacement seems to be working better. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
