Problem Linking a KPL

Trying to link a Dimmer Keypad (6-button) to my ISY. I have tried linking using New Insteon Device by typing in the device’s address. Didn’t work. I assume that is because the device is not in linking mode. I tried holding down button “a” (I saw a vague reference to that elsewhere). That didn’t work. Any help will be appreciated.

Is this your only insteon device? Did you power up your on and plug it into the ISY before powering up your Isy?

What message are you getting? If you're using the device id, you don't have to hold down the set button

The device does not have to be in the linking mode to add it to the ISY. Only battery operated devices need to be put into linking mode prior to adding them to the ISY.

 Are you getting any error messages when you try to add it?

Are you sure you're entering the correct address for the device?    Make sure you use the Zero not the letter O if the address has one.

You should also do a factory reset on the device prior to adding it to the ISY

Please accept my apology, I incorrectly entered the device ID. I mistook a "B" for an "8"! This is the second time over several years that i have done that!

It's a common mistake. You're not the only one.

I remember wondering what 388 meant  inside certain clothing when I was a teenager. :).
