Hi experts,
I have been using HS3 for quite some time now. I am experiencing a strange issue after broadcasting an Insteon group command that I just cannot seem to resolve no matter what I try. I have tried searching as well (my normal go-to) but cannot seem to find any similar threads or solutions. I am currently running v3.0.6.0 of the plugin and HS v 3.0.0.435.
I am using a KPL (fw45, Comm Reliability = 96%) button configured as Non-toggle On type as a controller for an Insteon group which contains 86 participants. I use this button as my "All Off" command (usually when leaving the house) with each of the group participants configured with an "Off" setting so that they turn off when the KPL button goes "On". It works exactly as I want it to; all lights cut off instantly and almost simultaneously upon the "All Off" button press.
However, the issue I am having is that after I "All Off", sometimes I immediately (within a couple seconds) need to turn a light back on (say if i need to go back inside because I forget something). However, as soon as that light comes on, it gets cut back off. Turn it back on, it cuts right back off. This will go on for about 10-seconds. It's almost as if the group command is being resent multiple times.
I usually leave my interface Command retries = 5, but have tried setting this to 1 and it made no difference other than negatively affecting how devices respond. My Maximum Hops = 3 and my Perform group clean-ups when transmitting group commands is false (unticket).
Any suggestions? I know a plugin update is currently available (v3.0.7.2) but I try to avoid updating unnecessarily if everything else is working as it should due to bad experiences in the past.
Thanks in advance!
