Mystery Link

[HokiePerogi]

I'm having a strange problem. When I toggle my ToggleLinc relay for my outside garage lights, my dining room light is also being controlled. I swear I specified for all existing links to be erased when I added the switches to the ISY/PLM. Perhaps an old link from my old house is still in memory somewhere.

 

Using the diagnostic features of the ISY, I was able to discover the following:

 

Dining Room Light = 0C.BA.49

Outside Garage Light = 0D.62.A4

 

 

 

The byte flag of 62 in the Outside Garage ISY Links table on the Dining Room Light link seems odd to me....I can't find a reference as to what a 62 means.

 

Any suggestions on how I can fix this issue?

 

Thanks.

If you ever had X10 (or even if you didn't) possibly those codes could be in there. You might try a factory reset on both devices and then do a restore-device on both from the ISY.

Hi HokiePerogi,

 

Please right mouse click on your dining room light and then choose restore. Does this fix the issue?

 

With kind regards,

I first tried Michel suggestion of right clicking my dining room light and choosing restore. I had already tried this once before, but thought trying it again wouldn't hurt. As expected, restoring the light did NOT fix the issue.

 

However, following ergodic's suggestion, resetting both devices and then restoring them both from the ISY, did correct the issue.

 

 

So is byte flag 62 represent a X10 link?

 

 

Thanks for the help in getting this resolved.

So I guess I spoke too soon. When I go into my garage, the Insteon Motion Sensor turns on the responder in its scene, the garage light. However, it's still controlling a device or scene inside my house too, the kitchen. Any suggestions what else I can try to remove the phantom link?

Hello HokiePerogi,

 

What's your ISY's firmware version? If not 3.2.2, I strongly suggest upgrading it so that we have the same point of reference.

 

Once upgraded, please remove those devices from ISY, and add them back in.

 

With kind regards,

Michel
