August 1, 201213 yr Hello All, I have a button on my KeypadLinc controlling my hot water heater with a 240V Load Control NO. I have them linked using the scene tool... I need the Keypadlinc Button's LED to indicate when the water heater is on. It works fine when manually turning the heater on using the keypadlinc button or the button on the Load Control.... However, when I turn the water heater on using a ISY99 program or iPhone the LED on the Keypad doesn't turn on to indicate that the heater is on... What am i missing? THANKS in advance for your help
August 1, 201213 yr If an ISY Scene what devices are in the Scene and how were each added to the Scene, as a Responder or a Controller. If turning on the Load Controller with a Program the KeypadLinc button will not turn On. To turn the Load Controller and the KeypadLinc button On, turn the Scene On that has the KeypadLinc button as a Controller and the Load Controller as either a Controller or Responder.
August 1, 201213 yr Author I have tried the switch button as a controller / and the heater module as both..
August 1, 201213 yr Do a Show Device Links Table for the KeypadLinc and the Load Controller and post the results. Posting the Saved XML file will be fine. Also post the Program that is turning On the Scene.
August 1, 201213 yr Author If From 6:00:00AM To 7:15:00AM (same day) Or From 5:45:00PM To 7:15:00PM (same day) Then Set 'Downstairs H2O Heater' On Set 'Down Stairs H2O Switch' On 2 / Off 2 (Backlight Level) Else Set 'Downstairs H2O Heater' Off ***** In this latest version I even tried turning them both on...
August 1, 201213 yr Author Excuse my ignorance but how do i go about posting the device links table saved xml file? Also, the only device that is in the list for creating a device links table is the heater controller - The Keypad linc switch that i'm using is not available in the "drop down" list... Thanks Again for your help D
August 1, 201213 yr No need. The Program cannot do what you want as coded. A Secondary KeypadLinc button cannot be turned On/Off with Insteon Direct commands. The Action statement is changing the backlight level of the entire KeypadLinc. It is not capable of turning On/Off a Secondary button. I assume you defined an ISY Scene with the KeypadLinc button and Load Controller. Use that Scene name in a Set Scene xxxxx On in place of the two statement in the Then clause and a Set Scene xxxx Off in the Else clause. EDIT: FYI - the Primary KeypadLinc node has to be used for the Show Device Links Table (which we no longer need). There are a number of right button functions that can only be applied to the Primary node.
August 1, 201213 yr Author ok i will try that when i get home -- Also - when i turn on the scene ising my ipone app the button led dosent work - any ideas on that?
August 1, 201213 yr Use the Admin Console to turn the Scene On/Off. That eliminates one of the variables. If the Scene does not work through the Admin Console then were back to needing the Show Device Links Table for the KeypadLinc and the Load Controller. Could be a link record has been lost or not successfully written to begin with. Could be communications problem between the ISY PLM and the KeypadLinc. After the Show Device Links Table completes for the KeypadLinc click the Compare button. That will produce another popup comparing the links found in the KeypadLinc against what the ISY thinks should be there. That may answer the link record question.
August 1, 201213 yr Author Will do - But First... Excuse my ignorance but how do i go about posting the device links table saved xml file? Also, the only device that is in the list for creating a device links table is the heater controller - The Keypad linc switch that i'm using is not available in the "drop down" list... D
August 1, 201213 yr Edit the XML file with something like Wordpad. Select all the date and Copy. Then Paste to the forum. The KeypadLinc Primary node is used to initiate the Show Device Links Table.

August 1, 201213 yr Author btw The water heater or the switch LED does not turn on/off when the scene os turned on and off using the admin console...
August 1, 201213 yr Issue the following REST command through a browser command line. Adjust the IP address as needed. It will display all the Scenes. http://192.168.2.4/rest/nodes/scenes Scroll down until you find the Scene being used and Copy the following Scene information to a forum post 25811 SceneFloorFanlincMed 62 L09 - 15 9A F9 3 15 9A F9 4 15 9A F9 5 15 9A F9 6
August 2, 201213 yr H20 Down Stairs22C121A C6 28 11D 9A 3B 3 Sorry, I don't know what that is. What was run to produce that?
August 2, 201213 yr Okay, thanks. Let’s do this a little different. Run Tools | Diagnostics | Event Viewer with Level 3. Right click on Scene name, select Diagnostics | Scene Test. Post the event trace. The Load Controller link records show button D (assuming 8 button KeypadLinc) will turn On/Off the Load Controller. There is also a responder link for Scene 22 (0x16) which I think is the ISY Scene. The REST information would have provided the Scene number. The Scene Test will also. In addition the Scene Test will show if the ISY PLM is able to communicate with both the KeypadLinc button D and the Load Controller under good conditions.

August 2, 201213 yr Looks like either a link record problem in the KeypadLinc or a communications problem between the ISY PLM and the KeypadLinc location. Run the Show Device Links Table against the KeypadLinc and when the display is complete, click the Compare button. This will produce another display showing what links are there versus what the ISY think is should be there.
August 2, 201213 yr Author As before - the keypadlinc is not on the in the drop down list therefore i can run the show device links table...
August 2, 201213 yr All the KeypadLinc nodes are shown in the left pane of the Admin Console Main tab. Right click on the PRIMARY KeypadLinc node, select Diagnostics | Show Device Links Table.

August 2, 201213 yr The Scene Test is reporting status to a PLM with address 19.73.80.

Run Tools | Diagnostics | PLM Info/Status to confirm the PLM address is 19.73.80
August 2, 201213 yr Author PLM is 1d.fa.d5 PLM was replaced a few months ago - Keypadlinc is brand new just added a week ago
