I have been reading all I can on here. I guess I have no need for the Wifi since it seems it's use is just for connecting to the router but I'm still wondering if i will need the bluetooth in the future. I'm sure I would be able to add the bluetooth in the future if I need it. I am also a little concerned about what I have been reading about problems where I would have to remote in using putty which I had to Google to find out what it was. I guess my biggest concern is getting in over my head with this but with the help from the forums I hope I can get through it.

Hello @Michel Kohanim , thank you for the response. I am fine waiting for the Pro to come back in stock and would even be fine placing the order now and have it ship when it is in. I'm not even sure what kind of use I will get out of it but I regret not getting the top of the line ISY even though I did not need it in the beginning and luckily UD made it possible to upgrade the unit I did get. Any timeline when the Pro might be back in stock?

It's unfortunate we have to wait until it's in stock again to order. I will keep checking on it's availability.

Thank you asbril for.the information! I know I did not realize the potential of ISY until I had it to mess around with. I guess I have to wait until the Polisy Pro is available anyway because I bought the basic ISY and I regret not buying the top of the line unit and ended up upgrading it after the fact. Does anyone know when the Pro will be available for purchase?

Hello I have an ISY 994 with IR and Zwave. My house is mostly Insteon, one motion Zwave switch and a Zwave lock.I use an Alexa to integrate some Wifi devices into ISY and I have a Harmony remote I use the IR functions to give me control of some the electrical items. I also have a Ramba vacuum Blink cameras and an Eufy doorbell. I am having trouble understanding what the Polisy with the nodeservers would do for me. Is there a cost for the different nodeservers? I have read on here to try and understand what all of this does but I have been unable to find something that makes it click for me. I only use a couple of programs so I know I don't have my house set to it's full potential but use it as a hobby and for my own enjoyment. Thank you Tom

I'm just learning more now, I was just using mostly linked devices before and now moving on to more automation type stuff. Making the scene did work. I was a little lost at first that the scene was only in the device list. Tom

OK thanks I will give that a try. Are we unable to operate one of the secondary Keypad buttons remotely and if you operate a switch that is not a primary controller remotely it will not operate it's scene? I have all Insteon switches in my house and everything works good I just have not done much with the remote access except have Alexa turn on lights and put some lights on my harmony remote. Tom

I'm having some trouble with the smaller Keypad buttons. Accessing ISY through the admin console or through the Web portal I am unable to toggle the A-D switches on and off. I made sure they are set to toggle mode and none are grouped together. I also ran into a problem with programs when I try to use a button as a visual que on what state something is in. Setting a button to "on 0 / off 0 (back light level)" it will turn other button lights off and when I set it to "on 15 / off 0 (back light level)" it will turn the button plus the other buttons back on that were on. I have the back light on all my keypads turned off and they just light up for what is turned on. Thanks for any input. Tom

I do have the Wifi adapter and I have their app for my phone but I'm not seeing other ways of integrating it into my home automation stuff. It seems like it is compatible with smart things but I would hat to have to buy one of those hubs just for that. Thanks Tom

Hello, does anybody know of a way to control a Schlage Sense lock? I have ISY, Echo and Harmony remote with hub all working together. I have the Schlage skill with Alexa but Alexa can not unlock the lock at this time. Any information people can pass on would be appreciated. Thanks Tom
