IoX won't allowing Inteon device changes

[Chevelle]

I recently moved and am setting up a whole new system now that I have moved from the ISY994 to the EISY box.

As personal preference, I like most of my lights to have a 2 second turn on and turn off rate.  When a new device is added, it defaults to .5 seconds.

When I use IoX and try to set the ramp rate, writing the change to the device doesn't work.  I have tried using the "Write Changes" option at the bottom of the screen as well as the "Write Updates to the Device" when right clicking on the device in the device tree.

However, it all works if I use the app on my phone.

Any thoughts before I open a ticket?

Thanks.

You press the button next to whatever feature your are tweaking after you change it. You should not need to write updates to devices, unless the little green 0101 icon is next to the device

Yup that's a classic. It looks like a field label, but it's actually a button to write the new value.

Oh geeze.  Poor execution but let's go with that for now.  So then why doesn't the ACTUAL buttons labeled "Write Changes" and "Write Updates to Device" NOT work?

There's 3 things going on

1. Individual device settings changes .. we just discussed how the buttons do that
2. "Write updates to devices" only comes into play when requested updates don't get acknowledged by one or more devices. You'll know this by the little green 0101 icon next to the devices. Also, when you make changes to Insteon wireless/battery devices, the icon will stay until the device is put into linking mode
3. I think write changes is part of the program tab
