Missing Devices in "match device state" action

Hello...

I have several "3-way" switches set up in Indigo. These are just SwitchLinc's with no load that are set as a controller/responder to the real switch. I also have some custom triggers in Insteon just to keep things in sync when other things control the lights. That has all been working very well, until...

I finally got around to replacing the switches in my basement this weekend. When I try to set up the "match device" action, the new switches are not showing in the device drop down. They are the switch types and FW versions as other devices in my network. It may be a different HW version (slightly different looks), but everything else is working fine.

The other strange thing is that the devices show up in the "match device" setting popup, just not in the source device menu. Some screen shots below for reference.

Re: Missing Devices in "match device state" action

Can you re-sync one of the Insteon devices that isn't showing, then copy/paste the Event Log results into a reply for us?

Sorry, the log of the Sync didn't tell me what I was looking for. Open the device dialog then tell me what it shows the Model of the device is (second label item from the top).

Sorry for the delay... My laptop took a dive earlier this week. Screenshot attached.

Re: Missing Devices in "match device state" action

Thanks for the details. I've looked into this in more detail and it appears to be a UI bug that prevents that popup menu from being correctly populated. We'll definitely get this fixed in the next release.

Indigo 7.5 is now available and should now correctly show the devices in the popup for this action.
