someguy Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 I read that a 6 button can be changed to an 8 button keypadlinc. And vice versa. 1). How do you do that to the switch? 2). How do you get isy to see 8 buttons/nodes instead of 6 or vice-versa?
LeeG Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 The KeypadLinc User Guide describes the process of changing from 6 to 8 or 8 to 6. It requires changing the KeypadLinc button frame which is available in a KeypadLinc change kit. After the KeypadLinc has been converted to either 6 or 8 button mode it has to be added to the ISY so that the correct number of nodes is defined. The ISY will detect the number of buttons when it is added to the ISY. An existing KeypadLinc device definition cannot be dynamically changed from 6 to 8 or 8 to 6. Must go through the device add process with the KeypadLinc in the desired button configuration.
