    Dimmer switch not sending broadcast message

    I'm experimenting with advanced scene control using nodejs. I am able to send messages to the dimmer switch to turn it on/off, dim, etc. and the switch responds, but if I physically change the switch, shouldn't it send a broadcast back to the PLM? I also have a door open/close sensor, and I receive broadcast messages from that. Any idea why the switch doesn't send anything?

    Thanks for the reply. So the PLM is a controller of the switch and the switch is a responder only. So in theory if I made the switch a controller of anything else, it would also broadcast? Or does it have to be the PLM?

    So the door open/close sensor automatically works because it is a controller only?

      Yes the switch has to be a Controller for the PLM that should then have the Responder link for the switch. In its Link Database.
      If you have the switch linked to other modules as a Controller but not the PLM. I believe it still will not see the broadcast.

        Thanks again...i made the link bidirectional so the switch controls the PLM and the PLM controls the switch and everything works
