Lights will not turn on

[mrohde]

Software Version 2.7.9

Platform Mac 10.6 (Safari)

 

I have an 8-button Keypad Dimmer (Insteon 2486DWH8 v.2C) button E, which is linked to two 2466D ToggleLinc Dimmers v.35 which are linked to each other The two toggles are for up/down stairs hall lights.

 

All of the switches work as expected, on from any of the three location - off from any of the three locations.

 

In the present configuration I can not turn on any lights with the i99, just toggle the led.

 

When I create a scene with the three devices all I can seem to do is toggle the led on the 8-button pad. I have tried every combination, setting one as a controller, 2 as responders.,all as controllers, no controllers I can not seem to set and thing on with the program except for the led.

 

Program:

 

IF

From 4:30:00PM

To 11:30:00PM

 

Then

Set Scene 'Scene Stair Hallway' On

 

Else

Set Scene 'Scene Stair Hallway' Off

 

Scene Stair Hallway

Hall Stair

Front Hall - UP

Front Hall SW - Down

 

Any help would be appreciated, I have to admit I have not figured this whole linking process out.

a couple of things come to mind quickly. First, make sure you created all the scenes with the ISY. I assume you did. If not, you may have some links in various devices that are causing some unexpected behaviour.

 

It sounds like you want to be able to turn the hall lights on from both of the toggle links and the keypad E. Correct? In this case, all three devices should be programmed as controllers. Make sure the scene is created this way.

 

If you are unsure whether these conditions is untrue, you may consider performing a factory reset (eliminating a devices existing links) on all devices, readding them to the ISY, then recreating your scene (with all as controllers).

 

Hopefully, this will solve your problem. If not, we can dig deeper.
