I decided to add a siren to my environment. I'm trying to get it defined in Indigo, but must be doing something wrong. I'm kind of guessing about "how" to add it, but with the virtually non-existent instructions in the box, and some confusion in the Indigo interface for adding it, I can't seem to get it working
Here's what I've done so far
- In Indigo, "Add a device"
- Put in the address, that opened a new dialog that says "this device must be manually linked with the PowerLinc..." (see attached)
- Following the instructions in the box, plugged it in, opened the Insteon App, and in step 3, instead of pressing the button on the device, clicked the button in the dialog.
- Lots of beeping from my hub, then and error on the phone that says "Trouble Linking - Press and hold the set button until the LED blinks steadily. Press OK to continue"
- It appears that Indigo added the device successfully, and it's working. I can turn on and turn off the siren.
- It appears also that the Insteon app has it defined as an "arm/disarm" device, but I'm not sure what that "means"
Does the arm/disarm mean it didn't get configured correctly on the Insteon Hub? Or should I just ignore those errors and assume everything's set up right?
Thanks!
