Insteon Door Sensor Model 2845-222

I install two of these ro be a last stop door check.. Sillly me I figured they would be simple on or off. After getting used to status being on all the time.... I paid attention to the log. It turns on or off but does this by a button status change which I can't find a way to use this status change as a trigger

Code: Select all

Any thoughts?

Somehow yours got into the "Enable Group 1 & 2 Broadcast" mode. I know the Insteon software has that as an option, but I don't think it is possible to put it into that mode physically (via button presses/etc.). Try factory resetting the module since that mode should be disabled by default: remove battery, press and hold the set/link button, insert battery, continue to hold button until long beep, then re-sync it in Indigo.

Thanks for the quick response!!!! Trued what yo said. even true new battery. No joy. I still have two buttons calling in. Probably the device is gone bad which is nothing new for insteon. I have another which is working just fine on my other door. Will add this to my piles of dead devices

Reset never worked. now I am getting constant low batter alerts... changed batter no help


Another quality insteon device bites the dust
