    6 BUTTON Key Pad Link

    Mark,

    I know we have talked before about this, but is this the best way to toggle a device on and off key pad link using 2 buttons?
    This is the only way i can get everything to look right when setting via HS control panel.

    That looks right. you can create a insteon group to control the amy fan and lights, and the use one insteon acti0n to control them at once

      Hi Mark,

      That actually did not end up working correctly, but this is what i did do.
      1) Set the 6 Button Key Link to Toggle ON for Buttons A (On) & B (Off)
      2) In Buttons Links I Linked A (On) to turn Off Button (B) and turn on Micro Fan Module. Note; just linked not crossed link.
      Then Linked Button B (Off) to turn off Button (A) and then turn off Micro Fan Module. Again did not cross link then.
      3) Then went in to Device Control set Buttons A & B to Status Only.
      4) Then created two manual events to turn device on & off by scheduler, because if one used HS to turn On/Off buttons would get out of sync and Device would never go off.

      The only thing I don't know is how a power off catch up would change this...

      In the end it works as it should fan goes on when user press button A(On) and A(On) Light comes on and button *B(Off) light goes out, then when the user presses button B(Off)
      Fan goes off and Button A(On) light goes off and Button B(Off) light goes On.
      Just seems like a lot of work to keep every thing in sync, but at least it is done.
