Remotlinc2 Is Controlling a Switchlinc Not In the Scene

[Joe B]

I have a Switchlinc dimmer and a Switchlinc relay together in a double gang box controlling a ceiling fan and light.

I recently purchased a Remotelinc2 8 button. I set up scenes for all the buttons and they all work fine except for the one controlling the Switchlinc relay.

When I press that one, the fan comes on, but so does the light on the fan controlled by the dimmer. The dimmer for the lght is not in the scene. I checked the event logs and I do not see the address for the dimmer being sent anywhere, yet the light comes on and turns off when I press the button on the Remotelinc2 along with the fan on the relay. I have the same devices on an 8 button KPL and they work as expected. I can control both device fine from the ISY.

Here is the event log where I turned the fan on and off:

(Remotelinc2 is 1C.33.08, Switchlinc relay is 1B.88.5C, dimmer is 1A.B7.49, PLM is 12.9F.FA)

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. To quote Ned Flanders, "Like the tree said to the lumberjack, I am stumped."

The easiest fix: add the unwanted light to the scene, let the ISY write the changes, then delete the light from the scene.

 

(I suspect somewhere along the line a manual link was added or a scene didn't get completely erased. It isn't completely clear to me what causes this mixup, but the issues have been sufficiently rare enough that I haven't tried to track down the precise order of events involved. The adding/deleting from the scene isn't as thorough a fix as using ISY's Restore Device feature to re-write the entire link database on the dimmer, but it is effective and a bit quicker.)

fitzpatri8, that did the trick! Thanks!
