communications not triggering program

[tosterhouse]

I am using 5.0.11C

Having issues with my motion sensors not triggering programs so i purchased a 2342-2 8 place switch

Created a variable to count the number of times i press the switch

Opened tools/diagnostics/event viewer and selected level 3

100% of the time i press switch A the event viewer shows that the switch was pushed

only 10% of the time the program adds one to the count variable

switch count - [iD 0056][Parent 005F]

 

If

        '8PlaceSwitch - A' is switched On

 

Then

        $switch_count += 1

 

Else

   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

 

 

This is the same issue i am having with my motion sensors (both new and old versions)

 

Why is the ISY seeing the communication but not acting on the input from the switch?

update

I performed a master reset on the switch and it appears to work fine but the motion sensors still perform only after a long period of time.

My thoughts:

with the below program every time the motion sensor is triggered it should restart the program essentially the lights should stay on as long as there is motion in the room. 

Even if I press the manual switch on the back of the 2842-222 it does not add one to the variable or restart the program unless i wait a long time. IE it appears to work when i first walk into a room but the light will time out

 

 

Kitchen Motion I new - [iD 0057][Parent 004B]

 

If

        'Motion New I Kitchen-Sensor' is switched On

 

Then

        $new += 1

        Set 'Light - Kitchen LED main' On

        Set 'Light - Kitchen LED Single Ca' On

        Wait  2 minutes 

        Set 'Light - Kitchen LED main' Off

        Set 'Light - Kitchen LED Single Ca' Off

 

Else

   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')
