21 hours ago21 hr Background: I had to replace a PLM recently, and I've had to rebuild several scenes, and 'scnCooking was one of them. The two switchlink dimmers in the "If" stanza of this program are also in a scene that creates a three way for the track lights. I've restored these devices, factory reset them, updated the scenes several times and updated this program several times.For reasons I'm not understanding, this program will not work, as the "Fast Off" for either of these switchlink devices is not captured by the ISY software. I can run the "Then" stanza from the AC and the "scnCooking" is turned off correctly. A fast off does indeed turn off the track lights appropriately, but the program doesn't run.The status of the switchlinks will not update in the AC unless a query is run, then the status is updates.I'm a bit baffled by this. I'd appreciate any insights here.Thanks!CookingFastOff - [ID 0008][Parent 000A]If 'Devices / dirKitchen / sldTrackLightNorth' is switched Fast Off Or 'Devices / dirKitchen / sldTrackLightSouth' is switched Fast Off Then Set 'Scenes / scnCooking' OffElse - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

19 hours ago19 hr Was the controller powered off when you replaced the PLM. It's important that you do that. If you didn't, then reboot it, and then do a restore device on those two switches.

I did power cycle the eISY a couple of times, but not the PLM as well. I'll give it a try a little later today.

If you didn't, then reboot it, and then do a restore device on those two switches.I initially did power cycle both the eISY and the PLM. The device restore doesn't resolve the problem. I'll give both devices another power cycle. My old PLM was actually over 10 years old before it failed completely. The system has been stable for years, but the new PLM has way fewer links than I expected, so I'm thinking that the old PLM has been somehow dropping links for some time before it failed (I don't know if that's even possible).
7 hours ago7 hr Did you remove power from the EISY before replacing the PLM. You may want to try a restore/replace PLM again (see attached).Even if the old PLM was missing links, the EISY would have written the correct links to the new PLM Replace PLM Procedure (EISY or POLISY).pdf
