  1. As in go to each keypad, select LED color and set LED on xxx color when on. That sucks lol. I was hoping there was a simpler way to do it. . Thank you for the reply.
  2. Hello, Let's say I have 5 keypads / keypad dimmers that all have 1 button named "Home, Leave, Dogs @home". One press triggers Home, 2 presses triggers Leave, 3 presses trigger Dogs @home scenes. I have the LED colors set in the Advanced Lighting. Each button on each keypad triggers the Macro containing each lighting scene but only the button pressed LED switches as its the only button that called the macro and sets the LED color on that pressed button. How would I go about programming the other 4 keypad buttons to follow the LED color change? Right now the only way I can think of is to program the macro to set each and every keypad button LED color to change when called. I was hoping there was a way to make this quicker...
  3. The title pretty much says it all. I thought it would be a nice way to remind me if a scene is active or alarm system is active before I go and open my bedroom window etc. Thanks in advance.
  4. Hello, Should I use this sort of programming or just call the scene. My thought was that the controller would know what scenes are active if it activated it but I wanted to make sure if I wrote it this way, I was actually decreasing zigbee traffic or is it totally useless or should I simply call the lighting scene when a button is pressed and ignore the traffic. I have about 105 zigbee devices with a lot of scenes and background programming so Im trying to lean down my zigbee noise to avoid possible delays. ? If Lighting Scene "Entry Lights Scene 1" is inactive ->Activate Lighting Scene "Entry Lights Scene 1" So, is does reduce work on the zigbee network by not calling it every time if it's already on or does it increase the work load for the controller and zigbee. Any tips would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.
  5. Thank you very much for the information. I really regret tossing my last working HC300 thinking it was a paperweight.
  6. Hello, I have an older LSZ-101 laying around and thought I’d use it to replace a damaged switch I have but it’s on embernet still. I reset the switch using the 9-9-9 sequence and it flashed but not sure how to make it upgrade to zigbee pro on Composer 3.2.3. I did try going into Networking tools, clicking on "Join zigbee mesh using EA5" and held the button button for about 15 seconds hoping it would automatically join but I must have the process absolutely wrong as it did nothing. Any help would be appreciated and thank you in advance!
  7. Hello, Im curious on how most people program keypad button experiences that are shared across multiple buttons and tie LED color changes to all of the buttons even though only one is pressed. I have some keypad buttons I use to program a leave / return home type scene with thermostat settings, day/ night variables , dogs@home vs not (experience buttons) security armed or not reminder, rooms off etc. Till recently I’ve been creating the scene in programming under each and every button via copy and paste but was thinking, as it gets more complicated, should I create a macro (rerun home scene day, return home night etc) and call those functions in the multiple keypads around the entrance to use that macro? I noticed that I had forgotten to make the changes to one of the buttons on one of the keypads and realized if I had created a macro and called the macro vs copy pasting to@each button, I wouldn’t have missed the copy paste on one of the keypads. Trying figure out how most of you do this sort of thing. Also, do you typically trigger a variable for scenes like this that will update the LED color on each button if one is pressed and the scene is active? Im trying to have it do RED for Leave, Yellow for dogs @home leave and perhaps green for Home but I want all of the keypad buttons attached to this macro to change when the scene is active. How would I push the LED color to all attached buttons? Thanks in advance!
  8. Looks like I need to read up on variables. Thank you very much for your reply!
  9. Hello, I want to create a scene for when I have guests over that will overwrite the typical motion / gate and timed sensors so the lights will stay on though most of the time they are programmed to turn the yard lights in that section off after motion stops. Is there a way to create say a "PM Party" scene where when its activated, these lights will ignore other programming and stay on till 2am or some preset time or earlier if manually turned off? Right now if people wonder around the yard and trigger a motion sensor / gate sensor etc, that section of the yard lights will turn off after the motion isn't sensed for 3 minutes. I have around 10 sensors that trigger this so I was hoping for a simple way to do this over over 15 outdoor light areas with switches on them so its a pain to manually go into the app and turn them back on each time this happens. Thank you.
  10. I ddidmt know the Vista alarms are t supported. Eff…. I wonder what I’ll need to buy for that next
  11. I might have to ask my dealer if the Older serial system is still there and if they can add the driver back in.
  12. What sucks is I use to have the serial controller but swapped to this as it was easier to use the web GUI to make changes to the variable speed pumps etc. i should have kept both!
  13. Following. Same issues and just spent way too long on this before I finally looked on here. SMH. I hope C4 can get a new updated driver out asap.
