Sepman1 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Help! I have a 6 button keypad (new model). I want to set led to red when on and blue when off. I can not get it to work.Button 1 works with an older dimmer controlling the load (Blue led top & Black led bottom when when off, Black led top & Red led bottom when on). How can I get the new 6 button to follow this? Does it need to be linked in the connection tab? Do I have to program each action i.e. With power state change?What does the button 1 need to be set as? Follow load? program? Etc.Also can I change the backlight of each individual button or does the back light all have to be the same?Thanks up front for any help!!

Cyknight Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Well to track properly a button would need to be bound under connections using ComposerPro.It defaults to follow what ever colors the connected switch/dimmer has , but you're free to change that. ComposerPro can do this in about 30 seconds.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sepman1 Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 Cy - Thanks for reply To clarify - I need to have Button 1 (on new 6 Button) bound to "Master Lights" dimmer on the connection tab ( I assume drag it on the toggle icon on connections tab ). If that dimmer is set to: Blue led top & Black led bottom when when off, Black led top & Red led bottom when on, then this should make the button 1 Blue when the light (load) is off and Red when on? Again - what does the button 1 need to be set as? Follow load? Program? Push? Etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lippavisual Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 As long as the dimmer you're controlling has those colors for LEDs and you bind the dimmer toggle to that button, then it should follow them.

Cyknight Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Once you bind the button, the LED should automatically go to "follow bound color" - and that's the one you want IF you want it to copy the actual light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff spahn Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 If you don't bind the switch you can write a macro to have it apply a certain color to each button depending on the state of some other switch. I did this so I can also use my press and release on teh 6 buttons to control volume but have the lighting stay on or off in the linked room independent of the volume control button push.
