          What are the correct parameters for setting up a device type for Insteon modules (lamp module, wall switch)?

 I tried the LM14A, but dim commands other than 0 and 100 don't work correctly.

 I havent played with the Insteon devices in X10 mode extensively, but I can tell you that they respond to preset dim commands.  So I would create a new device and set it for the same as a standard X-10 wall switch (WS467?) and add preset dim commands.  I know they don't use extended commands so the LM14A wont work.
 
 Dave.

 Insteon devices in X10 mode should be checked for all but Extended Commands and Status Only.
 
 A two-way status request can be done in a macro, or with this formula...
 
 ph_x10( controllerID, hc, uc, 0) + ph_x10(controllerID, hc, 115,0)
 
 Where:
 
 controllerID, hc = string
 uc = integer
