Need help with Insteon adapter

[satwar]

Is it me or Version 3 ?

I'm trying to use Insteon PLM 2448a7 with mControl Insteon Ctrl adapter. According to Insteon the software is same as PLM 2413U.

I have the PLM 2448a7 configured to use serial port COM3 but I don't see any Insteon devices. I've even managed to link Insteon devices to PLM as Responder. I've tried Togglelinc and Triggerlinc devices and can't see either of these devices in mControl.

Does anyone have the Insteon Adapter working with PLM 2413U ?

I have the following equipement and it all works for me;

Part Number / Product Item
2413U 2413U - Smarthome PowerLinc Insteon Dual Band USB PLM Modem
2473SAL 2473SAL - Smarthome Insteon / X10 OutletLinc Wall Receptacle Almond

I also have a few:
2476d SwitchLinc Insteon Remote Control Dimmer 2476d
2476S SwitchLinc Insteon Remote Control Switch 2476S

All work perfectly.

in the configuration; make sure you set it to SERIAL

I have a 2413u and have no issues either. Even after linking you still have to add the devices to mcontrol. They don't just show up automatically.

Thanks for the response, it sounds like I should buy a 2413U PLM.

Diz: I'm not clear on what you mean by adding to mControl, as this is the step I am unable to achieve using 2448A7 PLM. Could you detail how you did this.

I've added mControl devices using the Embedded Automation Adapter (Isy99), I simply select the Insteon device type (eg Switch On/Off) and mControl gives a list of Insteon devices addresses from which to choose. Is this how mControl devices are created with the 2413U PLM ?

What I mean is that under the devices tab you must click "New" and add each device. Sometimes people think they should show up automatically.

I just want to be sure of exactly how you proceed to add the new device to mControl:
Adapter = Insteon Ctrl
Module = On/Off Switch
Address = select desired Insteon address from drop down list of all On/Off switches in Insteon network
