Does the CAI WebControl require the add-on networking module in the ISY994? That is another thing I missed the boat on, and didn’t discover until it was too late that you can no longer purchase add-on modules for the 994.

Thanks, Eric. That looks like a great solution.

That looks interesting. I’d be interested in hearing how you interface it with your controller.

Are there high density I/O devices similar to the EZIO8SA? This product has been on my wish list for a while, but I waited too long and now it’s discontinued. So, I’m looking for something comparable which would be more elegant than a silly amount of I/O Lincs to get enough input & output channels.

We recently had a power outage and my ISY994i did not come back online afterward. The "power" LED came on but otherwise the device seemed completely dead. As others have experienced, I isolated the issue to the wall wart power supply. It is a 5VDC supply, and even though I measured ~4.99V with a multimeter, the ISY did not work. I have temporarily substituted a universal wall wart (with selectable output voltage) and the ISY works fine. I noticed the UD website sells a replacement power supply which is 12V, and have ordered one. I saw other posts here that mention that the ISY994i accepts a range of input voltage, but I would like to know if there are specs published somewhere to confirm this. I just want to make sure that it is OK to power it with 12V, and find out if there are any caveats. Thanks!

Giving children boundaries goes a long way toward mitigating these problems, at least at a young age. If you start giving boundaries when they're toddlers, it's far easier than trying to start when they're older. It does work, but so many parents today take the "free range" approach to parenting and then wonder why their kids are out of control.

Children need to be given boundaries, and have those boundaries enforced. Trust me, it will pay dividends in the future.

bjohnson, Did you find a solution to your problem yet? I have an implementation for this same situation.

Perfect. Thank you!

Hello, For the Insteon LampLinc, if I have an ISY program that looks at the status 'manual control' (the buttons on the device), is the load-sense feature also reflected by 'manual control' status? Thanks!

I think I missed the distinction of the conditionals used in oberkc's program vs. mine. I now see that they used IF [time], whereas I was using IF [schedule]. I will retry this, paying closer attention to that. Thank you all for bearing with me.

I implemented what stusviews recommended, and it works fine. I wanted to be able to have the option of turning the lights on or off manually, while preserving the scheduled on/off times. For example, if the lights were on, but I wanted to manually shut them off early in an atypical circumstance, I wanted to be able to do that.

That worked out -- thank you! To clarify my understanding, in the context of the ISY controller, are programs limited to standalone IF-THEN statements? I take it that subroutines aren't possible within the same program? That is OK; I just want to be sure I understand the structure/boundaries for program design & creation. Thanks again!

Hello, I am new to this and have an ISY994i and an On/Off plugin module. I would like to set up a repeating on/off schedule for the module, but also have the capability to manually operate the module, with it still responding to the next scheduled command. I have created a simplistic schedule, but if I try to turn off the module manually when it is scheduled to be on, it naturally reverts back on. So, I realize I need some more conditions in the logic to achieve what I want, but I'd like to make sure if this is even possible. It seems to me that I'd want to give a higher precedence to manual operations of the module, but I haven't found a way to do that so far. I'd appreciate any suggestions or references you could provide, or a recommended sequence of events. Thank you!
