  1. we need more information. If your away, why would you care if a light bulb blew unless they are exterior security lights?
  2. Good question but why? If you have access to e-mail, don't you have access to your admin page?

    IP address

    A customer asked me a question that I don't have the answer... He said that Charter changes his router IP address from time to time. He feels that it will mess up remote access to the ISY. I was thinking that it didn't matter if the Charter modem IP address changed. Whats the right answer???

    The best wiring?

    My response is: Why do it? If the electrician is running a new 220v circuit just to add a phase coupler and then running a new 110v downstream off of one leg of the 220, why not just put the phase coupler on the 220 breaker in the panel and run a fresh 110 circuit for the PLM on it's OWN 15 amp breaker? BTW - licensed electrician here - I guess "Safe" is a matter of opinion.

    I would NOT put a 120 outlet downstream of a 220 outlet. It is dangerous and the two pole breaker would not necessarily trip if the 120 outlet shorts out. My house has two sub panels. Regardless of how many sub panels you have, you still only have two phases, A & B. I put my PLM and one access point on a circuit from one panel and the second access point on the other phase on a circuit from the other panel. No issues. I wouldn't buy a phase coupler until you try two access points first.
  7. hmmm, I suppose it would work if you could read the current setpoint and add one degree each time you trigger the program.
  8. I control mine with one weekend and two weekday programs. They are all the following structure: If time of day is between x and y On a b c d e days then set temp to a else set temp to b At my business, I linked the t-stat to the light switch, lights on = heat, lights off = setback. My next step at home is to do the same at my entry KPL.

    Electricity tab?

    I would rather see it modified to allow us to enter a wattage value for each device. I could them poll for the kilowatts each device is using. I know it would be some what a guess on watts for some circuits, like dimmers.
  10. Correct me if I am wrong but they ALL require the networking module if you are intending to access them from afar. The difference is the speed that the commands come back. From outside your local network, there is a longer latency with the web based products. One other thing to consider is a common look and feel. With the web based products the user has a consistent interface via web or iphone.

  12. Thanks. I guess I would rather have them accept the certificate than open up port 80.
  13. As an installer of ISY systems, I would like to set up a link on my website to allow customers to access our shop's system. I have it running now but it requires the certificate and a username/password. Has anyone else done this and are there any tricks to avoid the certificate message? Is there a trick to giving them access to the isyajax web page but NOT the admin?
  14. After adding UPS freight, it's $111 vs $118 for a T1800 significant? (your choice of words) not to me considering the possible hassle of returns and unknown support BTW - the adapter you refer to is not the insteon adapter
  15. I messed around and discovered that I can add exactly two lines of e-mail notifications. The third will not stick as reported above. T-stats - I didn't delete and reinstall mine. They seem to be responding fine. Should I leave them alone? I was running 2.7.7 beta when i added them a few weeks ago.
