I've been using this to wonderful utility in keeping my front end updated (XLobby). The only thing I've just noticed (trying to figure out why one kept going on then right back off in status of xLobby) is, the trigger trips on KPLs when a BUTTON is in a group as well as the load, so, it trips when the load is turned on for sunset lighting, passes along the level, indicator in xlobby turns on. Great. BUT, in the same sunset group, a secondary button is turned on, which trips the trigger again, this time passing along either a null level (since it's not the load) or an off level, either way, the formula calculates as off and the indicator in xLobby turns off. I can duplicate this on any KPL, load is on, do something that triggers a secondary button, the load shows off via the formula.
Is there a way to check for ONLY group 1 from the tigger?

I know I can change from checking the local variable passed by the trigger to ph_getinsteonstat to read the database, i'm just hoping for a cleaner way

If your talking about the Triggers section of PH Explorer, I belive the "Trigger ID #" corresponds to the button number of the KPL (load=1). If "Trigger ID #" is set to "Any" then any change on any KPL button will activate the trigger
Hope this helps.
