Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

does anyone know if you had a scene wtih an insteon keypad as a controller would the youlink dim like insteon when the keypad button is held in?

well, I answered my own questions.  I installed the Yolink dimmer in a scene and while Insteon keypads will turn it on and off, holding the keypad button does NOT dim the Yolink

In other thread I asked this question:

"BTW if I set the youlink "on Level" to say 50%, when I trigger the scene via the KPL it shoud come on at 50% correct?  (i.e. not controlling the brighness via the KPL, but just setting the "on level")"

I can report that does indeed work

I think it is possble to dim Yolink from an Inseton switch, but operation is very differnt - Insteon sends a start-dim and stop-dim - I can decrease the level in a loop but it will be difficult matching a rate of the insteon - If dimming using the yolink switch it only reports the new level (after user stops dimming)  - so I must wait until a level is selected before I can send the dim command to Insteon and again the DIM level I do not know how to send to Insteon (only a command to start/stop dimming) - If I know the rate maybe I can estimate the time to send the DIM commands).   I think a program approach is easier 

If it needs to work, we need to specify a DIM rate as a minimum
