Scottmichaelj Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Has anyone seen any issues when say dimming or brighten a single light with a 2477 when you stop at the desired level it will turn fast on to 100%? I am seeing this happen in my house a lot lately when trying to brighten from off. It happens on KPLs too and scenes so it’s not specific to just a single switched light. FW is v4.6.2 Link to comment
stusviews Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Are you using the paddle or a scene when that happens? What's the ramp rates (in the scene and locally)? Link to comment
Scottmichaelj Posted February 1, 2018 Author Share Posted February 1, 2018 Are you using the paddle or a scene when that happens? What's the ramp rates (in the scene and locally)?Both, around 4s - I like a smooth ramp rate. More on scenes. Also the ISY sees the end level percentage but then goes full on. Tried writing to the device/scene just to be sure but no change. Link to comment
stusviews Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 What's the load? CFL and LED bulbs tend to not ramp up smoothly. Some of my LED bulbs use a 2 or even a 4 minute ramp rate. Also, what's the starting/ending brightness level. The ramp rate is based on from full off to full on. A 4s ramp rate will go from 0 to 50% in 2s. Link to comment

There doesn’t seem to be any coronation between the load being off or at a certain brightness, say 30%. Same thing happens. The loads are all LEDs. The strangest part is the fact the ISY admin console does see the on level properly but then it will suddenly goes to full on. I have not tried to change the ramp rate to a slower setting though, might be a good idea. Link to comment
Scottmichaelj Posted February 1, 2018 Author Share Posted February 1, 2018 This started happening to me immediately after I clicked on the "Never offer me Chrome browser again" option in my browser on more than 499 webpages. You a goofball! It doesn’t happen all the time but every once in a while it happens. It happened tonight but I just tried to replicate it and can’t get it to happen. I think Stu’s made a good point even if he didn’t mean too, lol. I will try and increase the ramp rate speed to make it slower to see if that helps. Maybe there’s a small micro delay and even though the ISY sees the right level it’s then thinking the button is still being pressed due to some type of lag in the system power line due to the LEDs. Making it slower might help resolve this. Link to comment

Yeah that’s not it. Tonight I set my lamps to 40% via MobiLinc and it did the FAST ON. I am not certain the ramp rate increase is the solution either. Link to comment

Scottmichaelj Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 Bummer, full ON happened again tonight on a three way switched scene. Link to comment
