Re: [mh] insteon weirdness -- fixed

I had to factory-reset the switch and relink it to the controller. 
Previously I had tried "Unlink from interface" and then "scan links", "log
links" (output of which I took to mean the device was not linked to
anything), but the unit continued to control other devices it was not
linked to.
