OK, after a bunch of inconsistent results, I’m going to take your suggestions. I think the KPL’s can’t be scanned due to the amount of links they’ve acquired. After about 30 tries, I managed to scan it, but it went through like 20 addresses. A factory reset on both KPLs can’t hurt at this point.

Just one question, the ‘comment out reference’ to that’s commenting out the KPL object line in the items.mht file. Why that line? I’d have to go through and comment out a bunch of statements in other code files, as well as to remove those KPLs from all the SCENE_BUILD statements in items.mht. I’m ok with doing this to get a successful outcome, but just curious why it’s there.

I have to try dozens of times to hope that one of them works. Just wondering if there any any suggestions or ideas — I picked up another keypadlinc, and trying to add some of the buttons to scenes, but it’s been all afternoon and haven’t been successful to scan a link table on this device, which is required before I can sync links.
