I moved my Insteon USB PLM over to HA, on a Raspberry Pi running HASSIO. Lovelace will control the lights fine, but often when I turn a light on, it’ll turn right back to off in the interface, but the light itself has turned on.
It takes multiple tries for the switch to sync on the web interface. Has anyone else seen this behavior?
It looks like the PLM is linked as a controller of the device but is not configured as a responder to the device. You can set this up using the following steps in HA
Go to Developer Tools -> Services
Select service insteon.add_all_link.
In the Service Data box enter the following : {"mode": "responder", "group": 1}.
I ended up resetting the controller and adding the open/close sensors using Indigo, but just syncing the remainders. I think there were old devices in the controller causing issues.
Sorry, I am not familiar with Indigo so I am not sure what this line means. Happy to help. Here is what I can tell you, some PLM software designs only link as a controller (one way linking) then they use status updates (aka polling) to maintain state. The insteon component is designed for two way linking so that polling is not needed. It is much faster and is a less chatty network when done this way. But it requires links to be set up correctly. I will soon be releasing code that will automatically set up the correct links but that is a little bit out on the roadmap.
Re-reading your original two messages, it likely is not a linking problem but you may very well be right that resetting the PLM would fix the issue. I would love to see your full log after a clean start if possible.
Seems to be working now. I switched logging to a MariaDB on my QNap.
IndigoDomo is Mac based Insteon automation software. I like its control logic, but its ability to make control screens is terrible so I’m switching over to HAS.
Here’s a snapshot of the logs:

Was the problem you were referring to always with a KeyPadLinc? I have found a few problems with that device when there are a lot of links. This could explain why resetting the All-Link database fixed the issue.
I am having no luck wuth the new Insteon integration and the latest HA .78 just tried today. I have a Hub and here is the errors I am getting:
[insteonplm] Reconnect to Hub (TimeoutError)
I have tired loading the command “insteon.add_all_link” and loading a insteon.add_all_link with a working Insteon switch light.316993 entity.

The issue you are seeing with [insteonplm] Reconnect to Hub (TimeoutError) has nothing to do with linking. It is a communication issue between the hub and HA. It would indicate it connected at some point and then disconnected. When you see the [insteonplm] Reconnect to Hub (TimeoutError) error, do you see this multiple times or does it reconnect at some point? Do you have to restart your hub to reconnect?
