Re: [mh] Insteon warning

That was exactly it, must have been a remnant when I tried to get my first scene working. Thanks Kevin!

Maybe you have another suggestion, as I’ve been trying to troubleshoot that scene all evening. I have the following scene in my items.mht

INSTEON_ICONTROLLER,	15,	garage_scene,	All_Scenes
SCENE_MEMBER,		garage_light,		garage_light_inside,	100%, 0.1s
SCENE_MEMBER,		garage_light,		garage_scene,	100%, 0.1s
SCENE_MEMBER,		garage_light,		garage_light_bench,	100%, 0.1s
SCENE_MEMBER,		garage_light_inside,	garage_light,	100%, 0.1s
SCENE_MEMBER,		garage_light_inside,	garage_scene,	100%, 0.1s
SCENE_MEMBER,		garage_light_inside,	garage_light_bench,	100%, 0.1s
SCENE_MEMBER,		garage_light_bench,	garage_scene,	100%,  0.1s
SCENE_MEMBER,		garage_light_bench,	garage_light,	100%,	0.1s
SCENE_MEMBER,		garage_light_bench,	garage_light_inside,	100%,	0.1s

and in usercode, I use this to keep them in sync at the local switch:

$garage_light->tie_event('sync_multiway($garage_light,$garage_scene)'); # noloop
$garage_light_inside->tie_event('sync_multiway($garage_light_inside,$garage_scene)'); # noloop
$garage_light_bench->tie_event('sync_multiway($garage_light_bench,$garage_scene)'); # noloop

sub sync_multiway
{
    my ($ref_light, $ref_scene) = @_;
    # avoid unnecessary traffic, like a get_status where status hasn't changed.
    if ($ref_light->state_changed) {
        print_log "Insteon: sync_multiway called for state_changed on ".
            $ref_light->get_object_name." to ".$ref_light->state." for ".
            $ref_scene->get_object_name." set multiway in 0.6 sec";
        $ref_scene->set_with_timer('', 1, $ref_light->state);
    }
}

garage_light is a micro on/off, garage_light_inside is a switchlinc relay, and garage_light_bench is a lamplinc. 

garage_light and garage_light_inside are linked together as both controllers and responders. garage_light_inside and garage_light_bench are linked together as both controllers and responders. garage_light, garage_light_inside, and garage_light_bench are linked to the PLM as controllers and responders.

(everything is linked together _except_ the garage_light and garage_light_bench as the micro light is way up high and I need a ladder…)

So, when I press the garage_light_inside switchlinc, everything works great, the garage_light and garage_light_bench come on. Super.

When I use the web interface I can turn garage_light_bench on and off. No problems.

However, when I try and turn on the scene, garage_scene, garage_light and garage_light_inside turn on, but garage_light_bench does not. Looking at the web interface, MH thinks it is turned on, however the actual light does not go on. I have no idea where I’ve gone wrong. I can get a ladder and manually link garage_light and garage_light_bench together, however I’d think that the scene would take care of that and wouldn’t be reliant on a local link.

Any ideas?
