Help/Question: Ramp Rate 9.0 minutes = 2.0 seconds?

[romeo_echo]

Hi there, I have question that has always bugged me but I've always just lived with it. Thought I might throw it out there and see if there's an actual fix.

I have an ISY 994i (firmware 5.3.4, dated 2021-07-07) and lots of Insteon OutletLincs and LampLincs. Everything has always worked great, except...

When I set a device in a scene to have a ramp rate of 8.0 minutes, everything works fine. However when I set the ramp rate to the max of 9.0 minutes, it ramps very fast, it looks the same as a ramp rate of 2.0 seconds.

Any thoughts? Is there a secret setting to get max ramp rate of 9.0 minutes to actually work? Does everyone have this problem with LampLincs and OutletLincs?

Thanks,

Ralph

I know I have run into this before.  A 9 minute ramp used to be a thing, but it doesn't work anymore.  Someone, somewhere, changed it to 8 minute maximum.  It's just the way it is now.

if memory serves it was smart home that made the change for some reason. It's been a long time.

Your memory is good.

The maximum was dropped from 9 minutes to 8 minutes.  Trying to set 9 minutes goes back to around 2 seconds.

I don't think there is a secret way to get 9 minutes on the updated modules ramp rates.

thanks all for the feedback. yep I've lived with 8 minutes forever, I can go on living with it  Would love to see even longer options but I guess that's not going to happen either
