OK Here is the setup for those who will ask.

Game Room XP-8, T4, RK3

Family Room RP-6, T4, RK3

Master Bed RP-6, T4, RK3

Theater RP-6, T4

All processors are linked.

Six other rooms with RK3.....audio only.

On the keypad, I have an off page. When you select it, you can turn off the room you are in, the whole house, or the other audio rooms.

The button is in stand alone.....in the properties, so it can "see" the other processors.

Even though all of the macros are there in the programming, only the ones that are on the XP-8 work. All of the keypads are connected via 2 CB-4s.
..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Here is the weird part. On the T4 in the Game Room, where the keypad and XP-8 are, I have the same off page, same whole house off button, with the same macro in the same order,

and guess what???????????????????????


IT WORKS..........................Perfect!

I am assuming(;>I) that the remote is connecting thru the antenna link directly into the "linked system", where the keypad is connected thru the XP-8.

Is there a different way to do this?

Anyone?

It sound like you got a couple of people on your program already but have you looked at the "Edit System Macro" for each step within your macro? Meaning, the macros that are called within your ALL OFF macro, check the Output Type that is under Edit System Macro.
I'll let you know tomorrow..

Exactly how are the CB4's connected? Are they pluged into an expansion port on a processor ( if so which one) or did you use the screw terminals only? are you trying to share an antenna on the cat 5 you have linking processors together?

We got it last night.
The button was in stand-alone mode,
However, the macros inside had to be individually assigned, as they were still in default mode.

Levi is doing great! thanks for asking. I am going to do a follow up on his condition with some pictures.

Jeff helped me find the problem in the macro. This software can make you scratch your head at times, but point me in the right direction and it can do anything.
