BPFUNK Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Having an issue creating scenes with my RA2 system. In the advanced lighting agent, the scene never appears "Active" regardless of what the tracking settings are...ie. even when i do "Get Light Levels" or click activate it never shows as active. My problem is the means the toggles never work. My control4 app shows the correct levels of all my RA2 lights, so I'm a bit confused why the scene tracking doesn't seem to ever work. Any tips? Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NextGenAV Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I remember having a problem like this before and it was caused by the lighting system never reporting a light level of 100%. Control4 was expecting feedback from the system saying that a light was on at 100% to match the scene level, but the maximum level in the lighting system programming was 90%. So the 100% level on Control4 was actually 90% on the lighting system. I think I changed the max lighting level on the lighting system to 100% and this seemed to fix it. This was on an iLight system and not Lutron though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't seem to have this issue with my caseta lamps...so not sure what to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NextGenAV Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I've recently been back to an install and noticed that some of the lighting scenes were not tracking. The system was changed over from AMX to Control4 and the lighting system is iLight (using Extra Veg RS232 driver) For some reason only one room tracks the lighting scenes correctly. The individual circuits in iLight are set up exactly the same way but in room A the scenes track perfectly, but in room B they never activate. There is no difference in the two rooms as far as Advanced Lighting setup or programming. I suspect it is probably the driver but can't be sure, it is pretty old and communication is only 9600 baud. In this situation I have had to program all keypad LED behaviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitali Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I had some issues with Lutron before (can't follow very clearly dimmers or scenes status) in that case, I think, you can dedicate c4 buttons like "scene On" and "scene Off" with out following status.

BPFUNK Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Turns out I had radiora v1 drivers installed for all the switches and dimmers. Got them updated to v2 and we're back in business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
