Keypadlinc to indicate ON or OFF status of scenes or lights?

[ferdies]

Would it be possible to use KPL as an indicator for a device? The following is what I would like to I have done and hoping to use KPL as an indicator.

 

1. Instead KPL in masterbedroom (KPL 2487s, 4 button)

2. Button #1 - included in "Kitchen" screen as a controller (i.e controlling 3 lights). The same scene has Remotelinc and Controlinc added as controllers.

3. Scene is obviously working if controllers are ON/OFF (e.g. turning ON and OFF via KPL, Remotelinc, and Controlinc)

4. However, if a controller is not used and 1 light within the scene is turned on or left being ON, I would like to see KPL button lit, thus I will indicate to me that one of the kitchen lights are still on.

 

Is #4 possible? Could you change the status of a KPL button using an ISY program?

 

System used: ISY99IR Pro, firmware ver. 3.2.6

 

Thanks.

Number 4 is possible. A KeypadLinc Secondary button can only be controlled with a Scene that contains the KeypadLinc button as a Responder. A program that looks something like this ...

 

If Status 'devicea' is On

or Status 'deviceb' is On

or Status 'devicec is On

Then

Set Scene 'KPL button scene' On

Else

Set Scene 'KPL button scene' Off

Thanks a lot. It works like a charm.
