I had planned on taking on this project myself but due to scheduling, I need to hand this off. Looking for installer recommendations--not looking for those using the business model of  "let me find your house on google maps and provide a quote via email", been there, I need someone to come...

Aaron,      All settings look good,  I'm moving away from Weblink II, it's been stable for a long time. I am also having issues with the app crashing, so not sure what's going on there.

I installed it, and it will connect ONLY on Wi-Fi at my home. If I try to connect on my S5---"please wait..............connecting" It times out, and shows the blue background screen. Any ideas?     Maybe I should have looked at Superlink?   Hard to justify $40 though

I am running both ALC and UPB, also have about the same number of switches.  Best to leave the ALC configured as is, and start the UPB address higher--81 in my case.  I have a few spare ALC units if interested.  Hope this helps.           Edge

When using Scene Tech, you'll need a Scene switch 364721 for example within the install, as well as the interface  364806 01 . The software creates the scenes, the switch and interface execute. PM me if you need more info

Pete,   I don't think it's anything you've done, ............mine get the 'squawk' sound about every 5-6 months.  Strange as the system has really no other issues than that.

+1 from JonW ..........also just got a notice from Worthington--although they said they would 'hold prices' until the end of the month. Kinda makes you wonder what's next........?

just a guess.... ...maybe the kitchen GFI tripped

Recommendations......anybody?

I have 2 of these that are failing, and I'm aware of the 'issues' some have had with the accuracy of these devices........is there another alternative or am I going to have to purchase more of the same?   What are others using?

A pic would be good to verify, but rule of thumb, if you see 5 serial ports marked 1-5 on the top left of the board, yours is flashable

"ALC is a hard-wired system and was one of the best lighting systems 15 years ago, but since has been discontinued." The product line was purchased from On-Q / Legrand by Stewart Electronics about 2 years ago, and all mfg was moved from China and is now made in the the USA. Tony Stewart was...

"Hardwired lighting systems is the best option available for automated lighting, but it is not considered "standard" and requires a home-run wiring to the fixtures." ----Not really the case if you choose to go with ALC. It is Cat5 based, & uses traditional wiring methods. Switches can be used...

I dunno, If I were doing it again, I would run cat5 to every switch. Like Pitca noted above, hardwired is true reliablity. I didn't have much success with UPB due to noise and various commands would be hit or miss, thus did an ALC retrofit........a bit of pain and suffering, but no complaints...

The Qn-Q plate that work to play shows above works well for my catv box from time warner. I found these from SCP that works well for my netgear switch. http://www.scpcat5e....ing_bracket.php
