HS2 Insteon PLM Plug-In Version 1.9.1 Beta

[beedee]

Mini Remote (2342-2) only 4 buttons available

Greetings!

I had the 2342-2 working correctly with 1.7.3.1. Moved to 1.9.1.3 and everything looks good except the 2342 only shows as a 4 button device. Tried deleting and re-adding device, no difference.

HS/Pro 2.5.0.80
2413U


- Bob

Reset the Mini and re-added.
All is good.

All,
I posted v1.9.2.1 which includes a small but important fix...
If an error occurred during the Read settings and Links of a KPL, the plugin would lose track of the KPL configuration (6 vs 8 btn).

this should be fixed now.

you may need to reread the settings and links and then restart hs

I tried 1.9.2.0 and 1.9.2.1 Can't get it to work with the 2413U, get an initialization error.

Did you set the com port on the plugin config page? this was change from previous versions.

[Seer]

Yes, I checked it and it was already set correctly. I compared it with the setting in windows device manager and they match. I'm not sure why the message indicates the port is not set.

[mnsandler]

Did you copy the ftdi dll into the homeseer folder

[Seer]

I copied:
insteon.dll
HSPI_insteon.dll
FTD2XX_NET.dll

[mnsandler]

how about this line from your log? did you enable it on the hs setup/interface page

"Please remember to Enable the Other interface on the Homeseer Setup Interface page."

[mnsandler]

Also, can you post any messages you see on the plugin config page

[Seer]

how about this line from your log? did you enable it on the hs setup/interface page

"Please remember to Enable the Other interface on the Homeseer Setup Interface page."

Yes, they show enabled, even if I disable them and reboot and check again, they both come up enabled (x10 and "other") and the correct com port too.

[Seer]

Also, can you post any messages you see on the plugin config page

these are the messages:
** You do not have the I/O interface enabled in HomeSeer **
Insteon functions are only available when the I/O interface is enabled.

** Unable to communicate with the Insteon powerline interface ***
Please make sure the interface is configured correctly and restart the plug-in.

as soon as I copy the 1.7.3.x versions back, it all works fine.

[mnsandler]

Yes, they show enabled, even if I disable them and reboot and check again, they both come up enabled (x10 and "other") and the correct com port too.

strange, i was able to reproduce your error by disabing the Other interface while the X10 interface was enabled.

try the following with v1.9.2:

Disable the Insteon plugin Other interface, and click Save. then enable the same interface and click Save. then restart HS

side note: there might be something wrong with HS. the com port fields should not be showing at all on the setup/interface page.

[Seer]

no change after the disable and enable and HS restart. The HSPro install is very fresh and I only have a few of my devices setup so far.

[mnsandler]

no change after the disable and enable and HS restart. The HSPro install is very fresh and I only have a few of my devices setup so far.

can you try disabling the x10 interface on the hs setup/interface and then restart hs.

also try the following while hs is shutdown

add the following line to the [config] section of your insteon.ini
InterfacePort=COMx

where COMx is COM1, etc. then restart hs.

also make sure the com port continues to show in the windows device manager under ports

[Seer]

The addition of "InterfacePort=COMx" did the trick. Error messages gone.

However, nothing happens when I use the buttons in the control column but only for the KPL controlling my X10 lamp modules. I went back to the stable release, 1.7.3.1 and still the same thing.
If I click the "control tab" and send X10 Commands from the "X-10 device Control" it works fine.
If I check back in the status tab, the correct button is updated after "polling".
