Hi. As noted here...
http://www.smarthome.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=5746
I'm having some intermittent trouble with my PLC. It was recommended to factory reset it, but the documentation says that to reset it you have to use that awful "Houselinc Desktop PLC Diagnostics". I long since took HD off my system, and would prefer not to reinstall for such a fleeting purpose. I'm sure there's a better way using Powerhome. Does anyone know how to Factory Reset the PLC using awesome Powerhome?
thanks

Try this:
Factory resetting the PLC
If the PLC has been corrupted, then it is possible to
reset it back to factory conditions using the following
steps:
1. General reset of the PLC
Often, the only step required is to reset the PowerLinc
adapter. This will restart the CoreApp. To do this,
unplug the PowerLinc adapter for a minimum of 10 seconds,
and then while holding down the Set button, plug in the
PowerLinc adapter. Let go of the Set button 5 seconds
after plugging it back in and it will complete its reset.
From within PH2 go to the Setup Tab in the Insteon
Explorer and download the Core Application to the PLC and
then download your Device IDs. If you click on the "?"
on that screen it will give you a little more help.
Hope that does it for you.
Noel
