Hey! now it works better. Reset of the Seluxit and the Tricklestar did the trick.
 Added the dimmers and other plug-in switches that I have.
 Made a quick reload of the Core. Made function check and all works well. and abit faster response can be noticed indeed.(or it may be psychological since I know it should be)

Then I installed new switches and wanted to add those as well but now the Tricklestar behaves like that again.. (flashing red)

This never happened with the other driver so I wonder if it could be the driver or (more) possible me doing it wrong?

When adding a new switch/dimmer I simply do:
Send download config to the Seluxit
Press and hold the upper button until green, then quick press on the same button, tricklestar blinks green and I press the include combination on the switch/dimmer, tricklestar then starts to blink red.
Is this the right way(at least thats how it's done in the wiki)

Off course a reset of the tricklestar will help but then also all the config will be lost(?) and I need to go around and add all the switches again.

Not sure if I should post this in the drivers thread but instead of destroying that thread I choose to start another. It's probarbly just me doing wrong anyway?

wrong!! You should never do the download config again after you have initially added the Seluxit to the Tricklestar remote. To add a new node just put the Tricklestar into config mode with the switch and then add the new nodes with the "up till flash- up" procedure. Same for device removal. The Tricklestar will notify the Seluxit about the change. This is automatically detected by LinuxMCE and you will see a popup on all orbiters with the new zwave node id.

thanks, glad thats sorted. Then I am pretty sure that is why it all of the sudden becomes angry at me Embarrassed
I got the feeling however that the nodes where not updated to the seluxit but I am most probarbly wrong.

Thanks again!
