Hi,
I've just started to use the ISY in my home and others for home automation for Jewish holidays.
On the sabbath and holidays, lights cannot be turned on or off, but a lot of people still want to save money by turning off the lights at night. This is where the automation comes in.
My question is- is there a way to integrate a calendar into the ISY? There are many jewish holidays throughout the year and it would be great if I didn't have to go in each week and set the system up... Can I just import a list of dates for a specific program to run?
Also, because electronics and the like can't be used, if you bump into a switch, you're screwed. Is there a way to disable a switch for a certain period of time? What I've been doing is just sending an on command every hour for the whole holiday or sabbath.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
