  1. thanks buddy waiting to hear
  2. I don't think this is is even possible for UDI to do. The blame is squarely on Smarthome's shoulders for refusing to make a PLM for use outside of the USA. I have a brother that lives in Europe who would love to be able to do the same home automation stuff as I do, but he can't because of smarthome's stupid decision. Buying the hub is something he wouldn't even consider. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk But hub plus home seer will do the same as the isy I don't think this is is even possible for UDI to do.

  3. Yep. But still as an Israeli wanting to use something similar to the isy I will need to buy the hub and homeseer meaning around 500$ for the basic version
  4. Nope Unless you use a true sinus converter that cost more than 2500 nis That much I can take the home seer and the hub
  5. I had one shipped but no matter what converter I used it didn't convert the signal and was no use. The only way to have something remotely close to the isy us to buy the hub and use it with home seer.
  6. Unfortunate ISY's future in Europe is dependant on a device manufactured by a company that probably doesn't want the ISY to exist at all. i know what you mean i have no problem going to homeseer (and even paying the 300$. its the same since the isy994 cost the same) the problem is i will need to pay another 120$ for the HUB to act as a gateway for the insteon devices and another 30$ for the plugin. if smarthome didnt discontinued the USB RF dongle, i could have used that one but until then, i will need to pay for homeseer + HUB + Plugins.
  7. Only on the legal level. The usa frequency is not approved in Israel but will work. I have a few modules installed that are 220 v but if I want to sell them, then it will be a problem but for house use there is no problem
  8. Thanks for your awesome post but the isy require the plm which at its current state require 110 v and I live in Israel which needs 220 v. If version 5 w ill support 220 then it's a noon brainer. Till then I am stuck with a software solution
  9. Thanks buddy. The question is what about the extra features of the pro version like being able to customize the mobile app interface? It sucks that I need to purchase plugins such as insteon support and the itach globalcache but it is highly needed. I will continue playing around with the trail version and see if it is worth200$ I remembered there is a usb Dongle from Smarthome That serves as RF only instead of the hub. Is it still supported? Or do I still need to purchase the hub?
  10. hey can i replace the HUB and purchase a USB dongle that supports RF? does that work with homeseer? i agree that 500$ is pretty much but it does do what i need
  11. thanks for your answer i dont mind keep a pc 24/7 (as i planned with the houselinc) but if i can do what the ISY does, its all good. i just saw that the Homeseer pro ver 3 costs a freaking 600$. the isy and the PLM costs 300$ . i will check earlier non-payment versions. i saw it has an app for the mobile phone which is a must. i will try and work with it and if its better than the HUB's app i am all good. so i can say for example that if scene called "leaving house" is on, and the montion trigger is set, to turn on the lights in the kitchen for 2 min and to close all the shades?
  12. Thanks. I am not familiar with homeseer? Is it similar to isy? Will I be able to create events like In the isy? Or at least better than the houselinc? Does it come with a smartphone app? I am sorry if the questions are silly. Thanks
  13. Thanks for your reply. Do you know if I can make such events In the houselinc?
  14. Hi everyone. now that i am at my final stage of my house build, i need to purchase and connect all the thingys. since i live in israel, i purchased the ISY with the PLM only to find out it doesnt work at all with 220v (even with a power convertor). i returned it and purchased the HUB which is not bad. but since i would like to create complicated events such as: * if the scene "leaving house" is ON. check all windows and doors and email / sms me if anything is left open * is no montion is triggered for more that 5 minutes and fan and lights are working (before 10pm), than shutdown fan and turn off lights. * control AC ,tv and projectior using the globalcache with custom codes. these things i wont be able to do with just the hub or even combine it with the houselinc. my question is this: since the houselinc uses the HUB to communicate to endpoint devices, can i purchase the ISY994 and have it communicate with the HUB instead of the PLM? anyone else managed to get the ISY994 to work with 220v? thanks
  15. hi since version 2.10.08 of houselinc you can add a ITACH device as an INSTEON device. anyone know how i can configure the IP of the IP2IR and configure ir commands? thanks
