Any good guides on the use of "control" vs "status" in progr
So a program like: If: status - light x - is On Then: set variable A = 1 Else: set light Z Off Would run Else at all times when light x is off or only AFTER light x were turned on, thus satisfying the IF of the program, and then the else runs when light x turns off sort of like "exiting" the program? Also, how would using Control change the behavior?

Any good guides on the use of "control" vs "status" in progr
The logic used for programs is very different than what I'm used to and one of the things I don't quite understand is how these two conditions differ in order to implement each in the appropriate situation. Can someone try to explain this to me or point me somewhere that this has already been explained?

In the market for tstat, have a 994iZ. Go w/ Insteon or RCS
I'm looking for a thermostat, I have a 994iZ so I guess I have the ability to run an RCS thermostat as well as an insteon. Are there any trade offs going either way or can I just ignore protocol and choose whichever thermostat I like the most?

A bit confused by existing 3-way dimmer switch
1 more thing, I'm pretty dumbfounded how the old switches kept their LEDs on w/out connection to neutral. Any ideas? Not important, just curious.

A bit confused by existing 3-way dimmer switch
Figured it out. All it took was going to work then looking at it with fresh eyes when I got back home. I was caught up with the fact that the existing switches had only 1 traveler wire, turns out those switches are pretty fancy (I didn't buy/install them). They are almost as expensive as the switchlincs. Anyway, appreciate the willingness to help.

A bit confused by existing 3-way dimmer switch
There is a 3-way circuit dimmer switch that has me second guessing enough that I'd like to run it past this forum. The switches that are installed are these: Instruction Manual: http://www.cooperindustries.com/content/dam/public/wiringdevices/products/documents/instruction_sheets/600cy_pt.pdf Spec Sheet: http://www.cooperindustries.com/content/dam/public/wiringdevices/products/documents/spec_sheets/aspire_smart_dimmers_spsh_4_10_anp.pdf I'm struggling to map the wires from these dimmers to the wires on a pair of SwitchLinc dimmers I want to install in their place. Below is the image from the above instructions with the existing wire colors labeled: Any help would be much appreciated.

Release 3.3.8 (RC5) Is Now Available
I have a ISY-994iZ/IR Pro and tried to upgrade from 3.2.6 using the firmware for the Z series and I got an error that it was incorrect. I then tried with the firmware for just the plain 994i and it upgraded successfully. Am I missing any functionality b/c I couldn't upgrade using the Z firmware? Why would it give me that error if I do indeed have a ISY-994iZ/IR Pro?

Guide for setting up Zigbee module?
Is there a guide/documentation for configuring the zigbee module in a ISY994iZ? I've tried searching and couldn't find anything that explains how to configure things in the admin console.
