I'm struggling how to figure out i3 Programming. Here is what I'm trying to accomplish. I have an i3 Keypad that acts as a dimmer for some recessed lights with the load being on button #1. I want the 4 buttons on the keypad to control 4 scenes (Bright, Soft, Night, Off). For Bright, Soft and Night, I want to have the recessed lights at varying dim levels AND (the part that I can't seem to get to work) I only want the LED for button 2 on for Soft and Button 3 on for night (i.e. button #1 LED should be off even when the load is on). I can't seem to have the load on and the LED off without having all 4 LEDs off. Amy I missing something?

No. I don't believe that the load can be "on" and the backlight to be off.

I have several of those i3 keypads and went through multiple attempts at doing something logical. Similar I have scenes called bright, normal, cozy and off. In the end, I decided that trying to keep the keypad in sync with which scene was active would never work in a way that would make me happy. So I started over and decided to make the buttons momentary on. Which means when you press the button it sends and on, But then inside the scene, I turn that button off. So it turns on, sets the scene and then turns off. This means I end up with essentially no buttons on except during the moment I am setting the scene, except the load button will always reflect that load if it is controlled by that keypad, so I normally just use the top button to turn that individual light on and off.

I know this isn't quite what you asked but maybe spark some idea.
