[QUOTE="patrick, post: 151080, member: 12502"] Wow, thanks for the fast update! Are you seeing the status of the device, such as on/off/level, in the plugin inside MP? I wonder if I am doing that wrong b/c the toggle(bullseye) will not send any command if the current status/state is unknown b/c it does not know which way to toggle. Also the "unknown" level state is -1 and when the dim(down arrow) is selected and the dim amount is less than zero it defaults to send the off command instead of trying to dim to a negative value. The on/off/dim/bright buttons always try to send some command in the hopes that the device is really there but the state has not been reported yet. (it could take up to 3 minutes to get the device state as the default to poll is 180 seconds.) Can you run the ahcmd to query the device state and level with: queryplc A1 on queryplc A1 dim and post the result to see if I am using and then parsing the result correctly or if I am even using the correct command(s) ? I will see if I can find anything, but I can change and save the device settings with no problem. Thanks again! patrick [/QUOTE]
