All,

 

Bringing up an old topic, but as I move almost complete out of HomeSeer in favor of ISY I'm trying to figure out how to replicate two functions that were very useful to me: The W800 X10 receiver, to make use of the inexpensive motion sensors and DS10A devices, and the RFCOM to support my many Oregon Scientific temp and humidity sensors. If I could bring temp and humidity back into my monitoring and reporting, and then make use of the DA10A's and old X10 sensors (even if via my ELK, as I think I MIGHT be able to connect the W800 with a serial expander there) it would give me almost everything I had with HS (and presumably much more reliability).

 

There was an old thread I found here: viewtopic.php?f=27&t=1754&start=15

 

that said back in '07 - '08 that a serial expander was being developed, but I never heard any more.

 

Any update on this? If not available via UDI, does anyone have any alternative ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Joe

Hi Joe,

 

Unfortunately you cannot do that now the reason for which were a) not enough demand and RFXCOM only had USB devices.

 

This said, we are working on a few enhancements which will allow easier integration with ISY form a 3rd party perspective. I am crossing my fingers that we should have something quite exciting by the beginning of next year.

 

With kind regards,

Michel

Thanks, Michel, and I completely understand.

 

I will check on Cocoontech about integrating the Elk and W800 (I think I did it once before, but can't remember how). If anyone knows of a good wireless temp / humidity sensor that integrates with the ISY, I'm all ears and would appreciate knowing about them.
