I recently installed the garage door kit (74551). Wiring and general functionality of opening/closing the door all seems to be fine.
But my big issue seems to be getting the sensor status (door open/closed) in the main/favorites view in the Insteon app for WP8.1. Basically, it seemingly shows old/outdated status all of the time (seemingly closed - gray), even after a refresh. If I go into the device-level view (by tapping on the little grid icon), the status appears correctly (say, bright green and saying open).
I have set the device settings (at the device level page) to supposedly show status of the sensor, not the relay. But this behavior makes me think that perhaps the main/favorites screens are ignoring this preference and instead showing relay status, which would just be a very brief, momentary close to make the garage door go up/down.
Has anyone else experienced this, or have any ideas that I can try? It's currently too cumbersome to check the status of the door, unless I really, really want to.
Thanks!
