    Hi,

    We have a found a small issue in 1.5 that we'd like to make you aware of.

    With ALL Wired Input Units the act of transposing groups between Keys can lead to problems.

    The simplest example is a 2 Key Unit.

    If you open up the UI for a 2 Key Unit and, using the "Simple" view set:
    • Key1 to "Kitchen Lights"
    • Key2 to "Dining Room Lights"
    If you then decided that the programming you wanted was:
    • Key1 to "Dining Room Lights"
    • Key2 to "Kitchen Lights"
    And you then saved the programming to the Unit you'd actually end up with both keys controlling both loads. The problematic programming can be seen in the following image from the Blocks Tab in the Advanced section:

    As you can see, the Key to Block assignments show that both Key 1 and Key 2 control Block 1 and Block 2.

    If you didnt fix this problem before saving the unit you wouldnt notice the problem until you either tested the switch or reopened the UI at which time the Group assignments for Key1 and Key2 would show "multiple".

    To fix the problematic programming uncheck the boxes as shown below:

    We have a small service pack coming out soon and will include a fix for this problem in it.
