I created a scene for operating my fanlinc High Fan speed. To my surprise the scene also turned on the switches that operate the front and back yard lights. There was once upon a time a scene that did just that, turn on the front and back yard lights. That scene was deleted and let's assume not correctly, perhaps the lights switches were deleted first, never set up right in the first place, too long ago to remember. I was a newbie and still am.
What I discovered is that it had nothing to do with the fan. I deleted the high fan scene and recreated it, same thing. I deleted the high fan scene and created a scene to turn on a dinning room light. The new scene turned on the dinning room light and the front and back yard lights. Then I created the high fan scene again and now just the fan operates.
I observed, on the android, that GROUP 35 was designated as the group for the scene that was controlling dining room light AND front and back yard lights. So after I created the additional scene for the high fan, it was assigned on the android, Group 48. Now I have a scene for the dining room that I don't plan to use just wanted the fan on high without turning on lights.
I'm probably not clear, what I am relating is that every time I deleted and recreated a scene it was given group 35. It wasn't until I created an additional scene that a different group number was assigned.
What is the group number about and know this, the group numbers are something different on the Windows 10 App? Totally different!
This is what I need guidance with. I want to get the lights switches out of the scene that is associated with, on the android, group 35. I also see I have conflicts. I discovered the use of "blink on activity", so I set one switch to do just that. And sure enough turning on the front and or back yard lights there is a lot of activity. It blinks and blinks! There is not that kind of activity with any other controllers.
I think the best method is to factory reset the four switches for the lights. Two (3way configured) switches operate the front and same for the back. One switch is the 2477S with load and the other switch is the 2466S. There is also a front yard scene and a back yard scene that both work and the reason for them is because I wanted each switch to react to the status of the lights being on or off. I have both switches in the scene set to BOTH.
I'll delete both scenes first, then factory reset the switches. But what about that scene that has, on the android, group 35? I get that I should probably delete it first as well BUT is there any other procedure I need before I make this worse than it already is.
