When tapping or double-tapping a SwitchLinc paddle or a KeypadLinc button, it sends group commands as opposed to direct commands, correct? What gets sent when the paddle is held down to brighten or dim; is it Start Manual Change when pressed and Stop Manual Change when released, or is it a string of Bright/Dim commands like with X-10? I ask because as far as I could tell, Start/Stop Change are direct commands only (not group), so how would that work with a linked group?

Joe,
You are correct. Insteon does not send repeated bright/dim commands like X10 and instead sends a single "Start Manual Change" when the button is held followed by a single "Stop Manual Change" when the button is released. These commands are sent as group broadcast commands and are not followed by group cleanup commands.
Dave.
