I just installed the (TriggerLinc - INSTEON Wireless Open/Close Sensor 2421) . Every time I open or close it sends the same data twice - I know, I can control that from my Macro, anyone having the same issue ?

Thanks in Advance

Are you seeing the two messages normally associated with a Group command or actually seeing 4 Group messages.

I spoke to Tech support of smarthome and they are sending another one - it should not send twice. I will post update when I get the replacement.

I was using .308 when the PLC was my Powerline interface. You might be seeing two messages because both Access Points are receiving the TriggerLinc signal and each Access Point is putting the message on the powerline. Try unplugging one of the Access Points. Unplug the Access Point that is not on the same 120v phase as the PLC or you may lose the TriggerLinc message altogether.

I’m using a PLM and all 3 of my Motion Sensors send 2 identical Group Ons. I unplugged 1 of my Access Points and I still see both. This does not pose a problem as I disable the trigger when I see the 1st one.

I had Tried that and I tried again with only one Access point. I am still getting the twice the open command and some time no close command it could be rang issue but when works with one access point still sending twice the command. I checked with another member who is also using the 2421 and confirm that he is also getting more than open command. It would be no problem if you are turning light, you would just sending twice to turn the light on. I am using TTS to know which door is opened. Now I have to modify my Macro to only run once within a minute. overall for wireless it could be good so we wont miss the open or close.
