After upgrading to version 2.1b I'm having a problem with a few macros that worked fine in ver. 1. While troubleshooting I've noticed that the Device Status window does not change when an insteon device is manually switched on or off. If I use a macro or timer the status changes appropriately. Is there a setting I'm missing?

Does the switch On/Off show up as traffic in the Insteon Raw Log display and are you using a PLM?   It sounds like the link(s) from the device(s) in question to the PLM are not there or not working. An Insteon device must have a “Controller of” link record and the PLM must have a “responder to” link record for the device to send an Insteon message to the PowerHome PLM.   There is an option under the Insteon Explorer Setup tab to either “Add Min” or “Add Full” the link records in the PLM.   If using a PLM the “Add Full” option should be used. Suggest you “Clear” the PLM database and then “Add Full” to rewrite the link database in the PLM.

If that does not resolve the problem check the Links tab information for one of the devices that is not working. Be sure the PLM shows as a responder to the device.

I am using a PLM.
Rebuilding the database in full corrected most of the problems. Adding PLM as responder where missing corrected the rest.
Device status indication is corrected, and Insteon triggers work again.

Thanks Lee
