Title: LM15A Diagnostics
Post by: Billaban on March 06, 2011, 12:35:52 PM

Greetings,

I have been trying to rejuvenate a couple macros that involve motion detectors and a few LM15As for garage and basement lighting.  2 of 4 LM15A's behaved properly and I was able to reprogram to the desired settings.  It looks like the other two are toast from blown bulbs or some other event  ??? as described by many on these forums.  I make this conclusion based on screwing a unit into a lamp sitting next to my AHP setup (recently updated to current version) and the lamp lights.  I send the "all lights off" command from AHP and the light stays on  B:(.  Both of the suspect LM15As behave the same.   I see all the expected command traffic on the activity monitor. Is this conclusion correct?  If not, suggestions would be appreciated.

If the LM15A turns on the installed bulb as soon as power is applied. It is toast as they default to Off and be in the programming mode for thirty seconds.
