how, I can do it, which system to use, how I can connect it all to ISY.  please advise, I just nee understand how to run it, or maybe some one already did that system.

 

Thank you

Install a wireless Insteon thermostat in the remote location. Use the ISY to read the temperature of the remote thermostat. Access the HTML interface from the iPad using Safari.

How do you currently control the speed of the fan?

 

hello, some how I miss your respond. that is another issue I need use probably just any relay as insteon or zwave to control speed,   and I am stuck with remote sensor, so I installed multisensor 6 in the room, so which thermostat can reed temperature from the sensor.

so any suggestion?

Yes - the suggestion is to get a thermostat.  It's the right tool for the job.  Yes, we understand that you have a multisensor, and it has a temperature sensor in it.  However, a thermostat does a lot more than just read temperatures, and that's where you're getting stuck on this thread -- all those other "bits" are hard to do.

 

By analogy, I have several bicycle wheels in my garage.  I want an automobile to drive to work this winter.  But I don't want to buy one, because I already have four bicycle wheels, and all I want is to know how to put the rest of the car on top of those wheels.  Clearly there's a lot more to making a car than just four wheels.

 

And there's a lot more to a thermostat than a temperature sensor.

 

So just buy a thermostat, and be happy!  The right tool for the right job.
