IRlinc receiver can't be queried ?

[telljcl]

Similar to my post about remotelinc, my IRlinc receiver shows up in ISY, and I have scenes assigned to some of the buttons, and IR commands do turn lights on / off as it should, but in ISY there is no response from the IRlinc device, and there seems to be no way to communicate with it. It shows status, and the only option at the bottom of the ISY screen is "reset" which gives a "failed" error box on screen.

 

The status for each of the buttons shows the last state that the IRlinc put that scene into. If I turned off or changed that scene using another device in that scene, the changes do not show under IRlinc.

 

IRlinc does not appear to be "updated" by other devices which are part of a scene that the IRlinc is in, and only reports what itself was set to last (directly by IR control).

 

Hope this makes sense. My IRLinc is showing in ISY as a 2411R V.40.

 

Thanks.

The IRLinc is functioning as a Controller only, just as the RemoteLinc does. These devices have no Responder function and as such have no On/Off state that can be controlled from another Insteon Controller. Whatever status the ISY is displaying is simply reflecting the last command issued by the device (as Brain described in his answer to your RemoteLinc post).
