I'm trying to add a schlage door sensor to my system. I was able to add it just fine, but it doesn't seem to be working. It never shows tripped/open. I've tried to test it by making a scene that turns on a light switch when tripped. It doesn't do anything either. Any ideas?

It may be that you'll want to go through the document in the help site about setting up your devices so that InControl can receive reports from them.

Specifically, you'll need to associate your sensor to your USB stick.

Will a leviton vizia rf USB controller work as a beta controller?

Good question... if it's anything like the ControlThink USB stick, then probably not. If it exposes a COM port in your system device manager, then yes...

You may still be able to do associations with it though while in non-beta mode, and if you are able, then you should be able to get reports about open/close from it.

Ok, I put it in beta mode and associated the sensor to my controller. I know it's associated because when I go back into associations the check mark is still next to controller. However, it still does not reflect a tripped/open position in incontrol. Any ideas?

Does the Aeon Labs USB controller you sell support beta mode?

Yeah, the Aeon Labs works great as a beta controller. Its the USB stick I personally use at home as well.

I have similar problem, my is the Smart code Kwikset electronic deadbolt, I am able to add it but not as a lock, is added as a dimmer switch, and of course I am not able to do anything, i mean open or close it.

Check out the help section titled "Lock Setup." It should help. Also, anytime a device comes in as a dimmer you can change it to a new device by hovering your mouse over "DimmerSwitch."
