After doing a reset to the PLM for some reason there is no Insteon traffic showing in the Log coming from a button being pressed on the ControLinc even after letting PH build all the links. If I try to link it to my PLM manually when I press the Set button on the PLM I get PH message “Unknown Command number: 84” twice. After which the ControLinc works fine with the PLM. The ControLinc works fine with all the devices that are link to it manually. All linking done in PH Explorer comes up Verified. This problem does not show up with the SwitchLincs. I’m running Alpha 8 although it may be more related to the PLM support.

Pete,

If you did a reset on the PLM, then it's internal link information would have been wiped clean and the behaviour you describe is correct. It's real easy to fix however by opening the Insteon Explorer and on the Setup tab, press "Add PowerHome Insteon ID's to PLC/PLM (Minimal)". This will tell the PLM about all of your existing devices and communications will then work properly.

I'll look into adding a messagebox when the Insteon Explorer is launched to try and flag this condition.

Dave.

Dave, that is the procedure I followed but it didn’t pick up any of the ControLinc. Inbound triggers would not trigger. I then did a manual link and when I pressed the set button is when I get the massage. After that everything works fine.
