EZ-Flora and the ISY-99i

[justin.cool]

This question has probably been answered before but my attempts to search for an answer have been fruitless.

I have an ISY-99i running 2.8.16, the rest of my system config is listed below.

I recently installed an EZ-Flora 5010A module to replace my Rainbird unit. Initial checkout shows it is working as expected, however, there are some controls in the ISY admin console for the EZ-Flora that I don't understand:

 

1. What does FAST ON/OFF do with respect to the EZ-Flora?

2. What does the ramp rate and ON Level adjustment do with respect to the EZ-Flora?

 

System Config

Approximately 100 Insteon devices:

• Mainly Switchlincs, Lamplincs, Outletlincs, On/Off Adapters, etc etc

• 7 KPL’s

• Triggerlincs (2)

• RemoteLincs (3)

• Controllincs (2)

• ISY-99i

• Access Points (4)

• Dualband LampLinc dimmers (4)

• Signal Linc (2)

• Venstar Thermostats (3) with V2 RF interface

1. Fast On/Fast Off have the same effect as On/Off when controlling a Zone directly

2. Do not change On Level or Ramp Rate values. The corresponding bytes in EZFlora link records have different functions.

 

EDIT: Fast On/Fast Off have no effect on EZFlora Zones when used in a Scene command. The EZFlora is expecting On/Off commands only in Scenes.

LeeG,

 

Thanks for the reply. However, I have made changes to the ramp rate and ON Levels. Now I need to get them back to where they were before and make sure they don't get changed, right? Can I manually set them back? A factory reset?

Set On Level to 0% and Ramp Rate to 9 minutes. These values result in 00 00 in the first two data bytes in the Responder link record which is what the EZFlora is expecting for Zone control.

Got it, thanks!
