Light control panel above bed-2015 Anthem 44B
Question: The Firefly light control panel above ours heads in the bedroom has a switch to turn off the Panel Lights. When we turn off the panel lights, only the panel lights above the bed are turned off, however all the other panel lights in the bedroom, and throughout the coach remain on. Since we like to sleep in total darkness, I have to get out of bed and hit the Panel Light switch on the wall (located under the TV in the bed room) to turn off all the panel lights. Pain in the butt!! I know I can have the light panel reprogrammed by Firefly when we go back to Middlebury in March for our PDI, but I like to know how other 2015 owners switches function. When we have the switch reprogrammed, weŽll only have it affect the remaining panel in the bedroom so that when we get up and go into other locations in the coach, weŽll be able to see the panels. Thanks.

Our 2016 works just like yours. Our previous 2014 turned out all the panel lights, so I would assume they changed the function in 2015. Noel

Like Noel said, I think the programming changed. If you contact Firefly Integrations they are very accommodating at customizing. I think it would be easy to change the light functions back to how the 2014s worked.

There is a code on the back of the panel that indicates what the programming is. Call CS with this code available. They should be able to tell you if it's right or not functioning correctly. They can send you a new panel with the correct programming.

Why don't you just turn off all the panel lights from the panel below the TV before you get in bed and then not mess with the above bed/pillow panel (bottom left button in my 15 Anthem)?

Gary, Jim said he wants the panel lights throughout the coach on at night, he only wants the panel lights in the BR off. Therefore he would need to have the BR panels reprogram.

That's the problem... Remembering to do that BEFORE I get my body in bed! Once there, getting out requires some gymnastics.

We had the same thing in our 2016. I contacted Firefly and had them reprogram this and a few other buttons that I wanted custom. They created the program and uploaded it to our coach via a laptop when in Middlebury. They wouldn't sell me the programming software so that they could keep track of all the various programs in case a service tech needed to refer to them but they would write any program that a customer wanted and they would be able to upload it from a laptop (with the correct interface cable) without having to go back to Middlebury if that was more convenient. All they really need is your serial or vin number and they will know what your existing programming is.

Yes, the programming was dictated to them by Entegra so it wasn't an error on their part. It was something like $75 for the first program change and $25 for each additional change.

They moved our front slide buttons to the top panel where you can get to them easily. Noel
