Please log in for more thread options I recently discovered what I'm sure someone else in this group must've already figured out: that using a Leviton 6417 PLC motion sensor on a system with a Levition HCA02-10E Coupler/Repeater causes continuous ping-pongs when the 6417 tries to send an off command. Is there a work-around for this that still allows me to keep a coupler/repeater in the system? This a large house (belongs to a famous rock star who's last name could be abbreviated BJ) and I can't get away without the coupler/repeater. Anyone ever tried and ACT or the older leviton repeater with any success? TIA | |||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options It's the HCA02-10E. Replace it with an ACT coupler/repeater. The older Leviton coupler/repeater (6201?) did not have this problem but does not repeat extended codes. If you search comp.home.automation (much more active) for "HCA02-10E" or "Leviton coupler" or "powerline storms" you'll find many reports of similar problems over the past couple of years. | |||||||||||||
