May 27May 27 I feel like I've done this before but I can't seem to find a project that has this particular setup. And maybe I'm just hallucinating and I haven't done it. I want to have a KPL that has a few loads that it controls and then has a "room off" button. The LED of that button would illuminate when ANY of the lights are on, but it would only go off if that button is switched off. e.g. I have a 6-button where the layout is: On/Off - bedroom cans A - Pendant Left B - Pendant Right C - Rope Light D - Room Off So then the scenes that I'm thinking of are as follow: Bedroom Cans -- Controller/Responder - On/Off Responder - D button Pendant Left Responder - Micro Dimmer (Pendant Left) Controller/responder - A button Responder - D button Pendant Right Responder - Micro Dimmer (Pendant Right) Controller/responder - A button Responder - D button Rope Light Responder - outlet linc (Rope Light) Controller/responder - C button Responder - D button Room Off Responder - Pendant Left Responder - Pendant Right Responder - On/Off Cans Responder - Rope Light Responder - A, B, C, on/off buttons Controller/responder - D button So this makes it so that if I turn on any of those lights then the D button comes on. But it also makes the D button go off if I turn off any of those lights. As is expected. But I feel like I had a scenario where I was able to illuminate the D button when any of those were on but not switch it off when they go off. I think that I could do this with a program but I thought that I had done it with just scenes in the past. But I tried to set the D button to non-toggle and see if there was something I could do there but doesn't appear that that is my solution. Thought??
May 27May 27 I have a couple of cases where I turn on the LED backlight of a button if any of the lights are on, but I do it with a program. The nice thing about it is that it works with anything that can be status tracked, not just lights in scenes. Something like: If Light A Status is On Or Light B Status is On Or Light C Status is On Or Variable something_status = 1 ... Then Set Scene KPL LED x On Another advantage is that if pressing the button toggles the LED on or off, the program will override that within a second or two. Edited May 27May 27 by Guy Lavoie
May 28May 28 I always use a program to control the LED status, and I have the button set to non-toggle off. Pressing the button turns everything off.
