Linking With A Harmony One Remote

[nyrhody]

Hi All,

 

I was just wondering if anybody can help me link a SmartHome Dual Band 2477D dimmer to a Harmony One Remote....

What kind of IR receiver do you have? ISY-99IR? Insteon IRLinc? Other?

The ir link is in the harmony programming as automation.

It will give you all touch buttons. You can program any button to the codes once you set up the if link in harmony. I used sequence and programmed them to buttons in activities such as"watch movie" so pause button brings lights up and play lowers lights. Personally I was in the same boat as you so I bought the refurbished for 89.00 no wait and already have it boxed to go back. Don't get me wrong it works, but depending on what else you are using it takes along time to sync. I had HL2 and irlink. For a little more I replaced them with a refurbished isy-99 ir pro and gained alot more flexibility and a lot less headaches.

Try it out if it serves it's purpose great. If not there are other options.

 

Good luck

I also just got a 2411R to use with my Harmony Remote and ISY-99.

 

Using the suggestions on how to link buttons I created them all with A-H on and off, then I-L seem to do ON only. I was not successful in getting I-L to be toggles.

 

The grouping of the devices is also a little strange with "A" as the root device, and the other devices all fall under it.

 

That said I used the "+" button on the remote to turn on a scene in my Family Room which has light I would like on sometimes, and the "E" button to turn off all the lights in the family room and kitchen. Fairly simple and does what I need for now. My original idea was to be able to toggle with key presses which would allow more functionality without dedicating more buttons.

 

Any suggestions on other ways to do it would be appreciated.
