I was checking my Admin Console today and tried some of the option buttons for a 2334-2 KeypadLinc. I keep getting this error:

Could not read config file.

[./FILES/CONF/32FBC1.REC]

Can anybody tell me what that means and what do I need to do to fix it? Do I need to delete the KeypadLinc from EISY and then re-link it? Should I factory reset it first?

Also, is there any documentation available that explains all the options available for a KeypadLinc and what each one does? There's buttons and boxes in the middle of the page, and buttons at the bottom of the page that seem to be the same. I've spent a lot of time experimenting with each button and value box to try and learn what they do but still remain frustrated. I think some of them are non-functional from what I can tell. I've tried the Wiki but there's nothing there that I can find.

Thanks.

Try this: https://wiki.universal-devices.com/ISY-99i/ISY-26_INSTEON:Linking_a_KeypadLinc#KeypadLinc_Options

Also, I think there might be something in the cookbook. Might be the same that's in the wiki though. Don't think there's been any update since they were introduced.

What are you trying to do? Remember, after IoX 5.x you need to click the button next to the option to get it actually set to the device. (like backlight and on level)

Not entirely sure what this means, but could be a corrupt link or data file for that device. Since 32FBC1 is probably the Insteon address for that keypadlinc. Is this a newly installed device or one you're just "playing" with all of a sudden?

Either way, I'd make a backup of IoX before you proceed much further in case something becomes corrupt. Hopefully it isn't at this point, but have a backup handy to restore if something really goes goofy.

I've had this KPL in my bedroom for many years. About a year or so ago I fooled around with creating a program to turn the LEDs off at night so my wife wouldn't complain about how much light pollution they create. I thought I had it working, but today I noticed all the LEDs/backlight are stuck in the off state (KPL works OK but is completely dark).

So I went in to Admin Console to figure out what is going on. In the center of the screen there is a Backlight button with a value box. The value is 0/0, so I changed it to ON 15/OFF 7 and clicked the Backlight button. KPL is still dark.

Next I tried the LED Brightness button at the bottom of the screen. That just gives me the error message.

I tried clicking Write Changes and still dark.

I may remove this KPL from EISY and do a factory reset on it and then relink it to the EISY. My typical "go back to square one" approach. I just wish I know what all the options on that screen are supposed to do. Most of them seem useless right now but maybe that's due to some kind of corruption in the device's memory or settings.

I should note that since the KPL is completely dark, I cannot tell if buttons or on or off. I don't use them as much as I used to so I may just yank the KPL out and put in a SwitchLinc.

Try creating a program such as the one I attached. The actual values may vary depending on the KPL fiermware version
