I set it up according to the help page here. In using it in a scene I can turn off an outlet but can't get it to turn on. The Power buttons toggle it and the new toggle function works but I am having trouble turning one outlet at a time to the on state.

You said "one outlet at a time" - does that mean that all of them toggle at the same time? Have you also split out each outlet using these steps?

I split out the four individual outlets and can control them all including the whole smart strip all at once from their respective power buttons. I can get a scene to turn off and toggle indiv outlets but I can't get the scene to turn on the outlets when I refer to them by their individ names. The same thing happens when I use InControlCMD2.exe, too, BTW. Off works, on does not. I have tried all sorts of power levels and percentages and it's off only.
Thanks,

Are the outlets set to either "StandardSwitch" or "Outlets" as the type?

They were set to PowerOutlet, both the smartStrip and all four indiv outlets. When I changed the type of outlet1 to standardswitch it started working in the scene device control. I tried setting it back to PowerOutlet and it stayed working correctly. The other three outlets still did not turn on as they were typed as PowerOutlet. AS I changed them to StandardSwitch they started and stayed working too.
What level should I be setting them to in Curl to get them to turn on?

For those, you should do an HTTP PUT to "/setDevicePower" - the parameters are password, deviceId and powered (a true/false) value.
