Insteon Command Received - Status Changed Broadcast

I'm trying to simply update a variable to true when I get a status changed broadcast from an Intsteon dimmer. The Trigger will never get hit for some reason.

Try the "Any Command" option from the Received popup.

Any Command does not work either. I've tried this with multiple Insteon switches with the same result. Ive tried hitting the trigger as well as pushing the switch manually.

Do you have any Conditional set? Also, copy/paste what occurs in the Event Log as you press the button (when you would expect the Trigger to fire) into a reply for me.

I dont have any conditions set. Here is the log:
Code: Select all
   Received INSTEON                "Back Patio Light Switch" off
   Received INSTEON                "Back Patio Light Switch" on

I had forgotten this, but Status Changed Broadcast isn't sent by Insteon dimmers or switches. It is only used by some more complex modules (like irrigation controllers).

However, Any Command should definitely work. I just tried that one here with an Insteon Dimmer and the Trigger consistently fired after every button press release.

Code: Select all
   Received INSTEON                "hallway light (downstairs)" on
   Trigger                         Any Command Test
   Received INSTEON                "hallway light (downstairs)" off
   Trigger                         Any Command Test

   Received INSTEON                "hallway light (downstairs)" start brighten
   Trigger                         Any Command Test
   Received INSTEON                "hallway light (downstairs)" stop brighten
   Trigger                         Any Command Test
   Sent INSTEON                    "hallway light (downstairs)" status request (received: 47)
   Sent INSTEON                    "hallway light (downstairs)" status request (received: 47)
   Received INSTEON                "hallway light (downstairs)" off
   Trigger                         Any Command Test

What changed from when it wasn't working previously?

It was my bad. I was trying to trigger the switch on and off through indigo instead of just pushing it manually.
