I am attempting to add IR commands to my ISY 99i and not having much success. As I understand it I first need to add the IRLinc to the ISY and then need to add individual IR commands as devices. IRLinc Rev 1.4 ISY 99i/IR Pro (1050) My Lighting v2.7.15 Below are the steps I am following: ============================== 1. Factory reset the IRLinc 2. Click "New INSTEON Device" (Light Bulb) button in ISY interface. 3. Enter name, address and device type. Select "Remove existing links". 4. Click "Ok" After some time I receive an error: [-200000] Node not added - Failed restoring device [F A5 DF 1] Nothing new appears in the node tree. The associated log file can be found HERE ============================== I have also tried the following: 1. Factory reset the IRLinc 2. On ISY select "Link Managment > Add Button to IRLinc Transmitter" 3. Follow steps provided in dialog (I receive first and second beep indicating link is complete". 3. Click "OK" There are a lot of progress indications. Nothing new appears in the node tree. The last thing in the log is "[F A5 DF 1 ] IRLincTX addr=0x0010 .. Read Failed" but there is no error dialog or other indication in the GUI that the operation failed. The associated log file can be found HERE ============================== now from the logs it appears that there is a fair amount of chatter and I am working on getting filters in place to reduce the chatter but I am not inclined to believe that it the source of this issue. Can anyone help shed some light on what I might be doing wrong here? Thanks, Jeremy

I know that the ISY-99i series is compatible with the Global Cache GC-100 series however I am curious if they are already compatible with the new iTatch devices. (http://www.smarthome.com/81188/Global-Cache-IP2IR-P-iTach-IP-to-IR-with-PoE/p.aspx). The Global Cache site doesn't seem to have any details on the devices yet but they do mention backwards compatibility...
