Can icon switch control two devices separately?

[jpoje]

I have a scene where an icon relay wall switch controls on/off for 2 devices, (1) my office hihats (the load connected to the switch) and (2) a desk lamp (plugged into an appliancelinc). Both devices go on/off together with the one icon switch.

 

What I would like to do, is to be able to tap on the switch one time for the desk lamp to come on, and then tap a second time, if I wish to put on the hihats. (Didn't really want to purchase another keypadlinc just to control these 2 devices separately).

 

Would an ISY program be able to accomplish this task? Or, will the hihats always have to come on because it is the load on the switch? If a program could accomplish this, could someone please provide a sample program?

 

Thanks for all your help.

Hi jpoje,

 

The hihats will always turn on since they are the load connected to the Icon switch.

 

You could do a program such as:

If
 Control 'Icon Switch' is Switched Fast Off

Then
 Wait 2 seconds
 Set Appliancelinc On

Else

You will have to put a wait in before turning on the appliancelinc since the device is linked to the Icon and in effect when you Fast Off the switch you are turning the appliancelinc off as well, so the wait will have to be long enough for the comm. to stop from the Off command.

How about

 

If 
  status Icon switch is not off
  and control icon switch is switched on
then
  set table lamp on

If
  status icon switch is off
  and control icon switch is switched off
then
  set table lamp off

 

You would want to delete the scene connecting the two switches.

 

If the switch were on and you clicked on again, it would turn the table lamp on.

If the switch were off and clicked off again, it would tunr the table lamp off.

You could play with this general theme using fast on/fast off as well for different combos.

But, as mentioned, the light connected directly to the switch will always turn on when you click on or fast on, and always turn off when you click off or fast off.

Another great suggestion. I will remove lamp from the scene and try your program next.

 

THANKS SO MUCH, I really appreciate the help!!!
