Well, I don't have any dimmers left not connected to the controller...and if my wires at the controller weren't held together with glue and twist ties, I'd disconnect them for a test....
I never tried the double OFF thing before having it all tied together, so I don't know if that worked then.
I can say with certainty that the OFF behavior works as advertised, with it connected to HV and LV. Single OFF, jump to 0. Double OFF, slow ramp down.
As for any delay on the double ON....it all depends on how quickly I do the double tap. If I do it reallly quickly, then I don't notice any delay at all. The slower I do the double tap ON, the more noticeable the pause at the preset becomes....and of course that makes sense...it's just treating it more and more like 2 single taps instead of an actual double tap. It's possible that the switches don't actually register double taps ON, just react to two single taps, and the faster they are, the more likely the 2nd tap is registered before the lights have risen to the preset level.
I'd almost guess the switches don't register double taps at all, just react to single taps, but there is CLEARLY a double tap action on the OFF, not 2 single actions.
I could disconnect the serial port add-on and try some things, and maybe you could disconnect your Elk add-on and try some things, since that's one of the most major differences in our setups.
