ResIpsa Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 In a recent development, I have suddenly begun having lights turn on at random. Even more strange is that the switches don't always correctly reflect the status (the switch is off but the light is on). The log shows these lights are being turned on by a program (I have no such program). Is it possible my PLM is biting the dust?
LeeG Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 The PLM is on the end of the chain. If there is an ISY Log entry that indicates a Program turned a device On this is not the result of a PLM issue.
Xathros Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 ResIpsa- What version ISY firmware are you using? Do you have a program run to adjust the LED backlights on any KPL's or Switchlincs? Do the lights turn on at the time the backlights should dim/brighten? If you answer is: >3.2.6 but < 3.3.9, Yes and Yes then upgrading to 3.3.9 should resolve the problem. -Xathros
ResIpsa Posted January 16, 2013 Author Posted January 16, 2013 I am on 3.3.8. I do not have (and have never had) any programs that control the backlight of any KPLs or switchlincs. The latest random triggering of lights occurred shortly after 11:00 p.m yesterday (1/14/2013). Here is a comparison of the Programs tab in ISY for that time period (sorted by Last Run Time) and my ISY log for the same time period. As you can see, there are WAY more program entries in the log file than there are in the Programs tab.

oberkc Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 I see a lot of entries suggesting activity regarding motion sensors. Do you have programs tiggered by motion?
