No, this device is not supported by the ISY-994. UDI has indicated this device does not act like any other Insteon device what ever that is supposed to mean.

 

The device has lots of potential but Smarthome has not upgraded this device since launch or used the full capability / potential of the product. The device can display three iMeter Solo's and provides local temperature readings.

 

The temperature readings can not be queried by the ISY-994 Series Controller as its a battery device and goes back to sleep. I had asked if the device could send updates to the ISY via RF as the Advert indicated if a change in temperature in a specified period time was met it would broadcast that local temperature.

 

I was advised this could not be supported or be obtained. :?

 

If all you want is a very basic energy display and local temperature readings its a nice little device. Beyond that its not worth your time in purchasing the unit as its not very flexible in terms of what you can actually do with it.
