August 18Aug 18 Does anybody have any thoughts on a good way to do a 2-button switch maybe using a 2477D or and i3 paddle? Like where the Up is a toggle for 1 scene and the Down is a toggle for another. This would be mostly in situations where there is a wired load. I think that eventually what would make sense is the i3 4-button to have a button face that just has 2 physical buttons that just trigger the top and bottom buttuns underneath the faceplate. Wouldn't even need to change any sort of programming inside the device like with 6 to 8 button conversion. If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear.
August 18Aug 18 The easiest and most straight forward would be to have an iox program, or 2, to "backstop" the button presses. In the 2 program model, there would be one program each to catch the switched on and switched off. The one program version would use the else with if switched on and not switched off at the start. Its a nuanced choice of which you like best. The downside of this approach is a short, several second delay between press and activity due to the serial line speed into and out of the PLM

I'll give it a shot and see how the client feels about it. Thanks for the reply.
