I was just playing around with a test file and it looks like you can't use ZRP-6 system flags on a remote...?  So, for example, you can't make a button visible based on a System flag like you can with an XP-8.

Really?

Haven't used a ZRP6 with Zigbee yet... only 433.

I'll be curious of what you find out.

Unfortunately I have a T2-Cs at home, so I'm using 433 with the ZRP-6 I just got.

I just checked in a test program again and I don't get the option for the ZRP-6 flags on the remote. That seems like a weird limitation. It looks like the XP-8 and ZRP-6 are going to work a lot more differently than I originally thought...

You can't do flags between a 433 remote and any processor. You need the two way communication to be able to set flags back and forth.

Put a ZM24 and a zigbee remote in there and I'll bet it works.

No, that's what I'm saying.  It doesn't work.

I know the difference between 433 and zigbee... :)

LOL! Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that you were an idiot.


2 way flags work with the XP8, so I assume (I know I know) that they should work with the ZRP6.

i put an XP-8 and a ZRP-6 in a file with a T2-C Zigbee.  Set the default processor to the XP-8 and you can select XP-8 flags as variables.  Change the default processor to the ZRP-6 and you only get the local flags as variables.  Weird.  I know I'm not trying it "in real life", but I don't think I'm missing anything here.
