I figured I'd throw this out for comment as I couldn't get any hits on a search and before I screw something up.  I've only got two(2) Insteon nodes left, I might want to add a 3rd, but can I just unplug the PLM from the 994 & plug it into the eisy and rebuild the 2 devices & links?  Is there a procedure to re-initialize it when I move it to the eisy?  Or just plug it in and it'll take off running ready for me to configure the two nodes, add a new one, and link them up?  Thanks,     Grant

<lol>  As soon as I logged on to add to this thread to post my solution I saw your message pop up.  I haven't followed your link yet but I will.  I had to factory reset the PLM and it worked like a charm!  Procedure:  Unplug, hold set button down while plugging back in, unit beeps, wait for beep to stop, release button.  Then hook it back up to the eisy.  Wah-lah it works.    Thanks,  Grant

Here's my raw notes from during the procedure:

When trying to add an Insteon 2674-222 Insteon LED Bulb PAR38 12 Watt First using Auto Discover for Device Type then choosing the Device Type from the drop down I receive the message “Cannot determine Insteon Engine.” 

Tools/Diagnostics/PLM Info/Status shows the PLM Connected.  PLM Links Table Count = 61 after you choose Start.

Reset to factory settings. Reinstall.  No PLM links found.

Try to add, it now works.

 

 

Cannot determine Insteon Engine means that the PLM is unable to communicate with the device.

To link the bulb, you need to remove power, when you then power it up the bulb will go into linking mode for a few minutes, you can then link it to the ISY. The bulb cannot be connected to dimmer switch.

For some reason the PLM couldn't talk to the bulb until I factory reset the PLM.  No dimmer switch in the circuit.  Same location, same phase.  After factory reset it worked like a charm.  Didn't even have to re-boot the eisy.  It works by populating the address field in the Add Device(or whatever it's called) dialogue, I didn't have to put the lamp in linking mode.  Thanks.     -Grant
