I’m having some unusual issues with dimming Insteon light switches. I’ve verified that the dimming works properly straight from ISY so this appears to be a Homeseer issue. Here’s my setup:
- Windows 7 Pro 32b
- 1.6G cpu, 2GB ram
- HomeseerPro 2.4.0.6
- ISY i99 v 2.8.2
- Homeseer ISY plugin 1.0.2.3
- Maestro Core 2.5.0.19
- Flash 10
Issues:
- All lights turn on/off when triggered by either ISY or Homeseer
- When I dim a light within ISY the dim level appears both in ISY and Homeseer and the light dims
- When I dim a light within Homeseer, the new dim level is display in HS but not in ISY and the light does NOT dim
- What is stranger is that some Insteon light switches work and some don’t:
o ToggleLinc Dimmer 2466DX v3.8 – Dim Does NOT Work
o ToggleLinc Dimmer 2466DX v2.1 - Dim Does NOT Work
o ToggleLinc Dimmer 2466DX v3.5 - Dim Does Work
o SwitchLinc V2 Dimmer 600W 2476D v3.5 - Dim Does NOT Work
o SwitchLinc Dimmer 1000W 2476DH v3,7 - Dim Does Work
o KeypadLinc 8-button Dimmer 2486DWH8 V3.6 - Dim Does Work
o LampLinc V2 2456D3 V3.3 - Dim Does Work
o LampLinc V2 2-Pin 2856D2 V3.2 - Dim Does Work
Since the switches work from ISY I know they’re not defective. I checked the device types and they look fine (support status request/SmartLinc Protocal/Preset Dimming). I did notice in the log that the Dim command uses a different device name which may indicate that the command is never making it to the device (and the switches that work use the same device name for ON/Off/Dim). Just not sure how to correct that…
