madman Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Would be nice to have a list of all compatible devices somewhere on the Wiki. I seacrhed everywhere and could not find out if the 2663-222 On/Off Outlets are fully supported.
oberkc Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 I have never concerned myself with such a list. If I find an insteon device in which I am interested, I buy it. Never have I found one not compatible with the ISY.
madman Posted December 19, 2014 Author Posted December 19, 2014 I think that for new users it would be nice. I just got my ISY a couple of weeks ago and I'm not sure if all devices are supported. But thanks for the feedback
oberkc Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Perhaps there is a list somewhere. Until then , I think you are safe assuming compatibility. If not, history suggests it soon will be.
oberkc Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 BTW, if you are inclined, and it is important enough to you, you could try a forum search. Compatibility with new devices is typically identified in the announcement for new releases. One interesting topic surfaced: http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/14735-insteon-onoff-outlet-2663-222-review/
Teken Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Perhaps there is a list somewhere. Until then , I think you are safe assuming compatibility. If not, history suggests it soon will be. To be very specific not all Insteon devices are supported by UDI. As far as I can tell it comes down to how many people they believe are going to use or have said Insteon device(s). A list of devices not supported by the ISY: 1. Energy Monitor Display: http://www.smarthome.com/insteon-2448a2-energy-display.html 2. Insteon Flood Stop: http://www.smarthome.com/onsite-pro-fs1nptw-whole-home-wireless-floodstop-with-1-inch-valve.html 3. There a few more but I will need to go back to the archives to confirm.
oberkc Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 I am not sure if garage hawk is considered an insteon device, but it may not be supported either.
stusviews Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 Not all features of all devices are supported by the ISY, for example, setting the thermostat to ºC or adjusting the thermostat backlight. But, these are usually set just once, so, for most, it's not a problem

One interesting topic surfaced: http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/14735-insteon-onoff-outlet-2663-222-review/ That's a nice review and answers my question about this device. But forum posts shouldn't be considered official documentation. I still think it would be nice for UDI to list all the compatible devices in the manual or on the Wiki.

I still think it would be nice for UDI to list all the compatible devices in the manual or on the Wiki. Unfortunately, when one asks in a forum, forum posts are the likely reponse. Universal Devices is better than most with involvement in forums, but this is still dominated by users not affiliated with the company. Perhaps they will see this question and respond. Direct communication with them is probably a better option if you pass along the suggestion or seek official documentation. For the record, I agree that there should be such a list, and probably is somewhere in the records of UDI.

Officially when you select the drop down list in the ISY UI those are supported devices the system was designed to support. People have tried in the past such as I to use an existing device signature (brute force) to make something operate. It does not always work or has limited function.

Michel Kohanim Posted December 21, 2014 Posted December 21, 2014 Hi madman, Such list does not exist since we support every SmartHome device with the exception of: 1. SeriaLinc 2. Energy Display As far as third party INSTEON devices, most SmartenIt devices are supported. Garage Hawk is not supported. With kind regards, Michel
