When I add the thermostat to the program 'then' it gives me on, off, beep duration, and back light options. that's it.

I finally got my thermostat! I added it to my ISY and all looked good. I was able to manually control the thermostat thru the admin console. But the two issues I have are:

 

I can't control it thru programs.

 

The thermostat shows no status in MobiLinc.

Android MobiLinc needs to have a new image captured from ISY in Setup|Light Controller when a new device is added.

Hmm, I don't see an On for the thermostat. There is Fan Off, Fan On, Mode Off, Mode Heat, Mode Cool, Mode Auto, Mode Fan, Mode Program Auto, Mode Program Heat and Mode Program Cool.

 

Is "Automation / Music Room / Thermastat / Music Room - Main," a scene? If so, what are the contents of the scene?

Cold Control and Heat Control do not affect the thermostat at all. The thermostat is the controller for Cold Control and Heat Control. Then Cold Control and Heat Control become the controlllers for whatever you want to respond when you call for cool or heat.

 

But I'm still confuse about, Set 'Automation / Music Room / Thermastat / Music Room - Main' On. There's Heat On, Cool On plus the others I mentioned, above. There is not an On without specifying what mode you want on.

I'm not at all confused by the thermostat, only by your program. A simple On for the thermostat is not missing, it makes no sense. Because there are several settings that can be turned on, when you turn the thermostat on, you must specify if you want heat, cool or something else. That's true even if you turn the thermostat on manually. However, off is off, so you can set the thermostat to Mode Off.

 

I'm not even sure how you created the program you have listed above. There is not an On option for the thermostat.

That's why I'm confused. I don't have the settings you are talking about. When I add the thermostat to my program then statement I get the following options:

On

Off

Fast On

Fast Off

Query

(Beep Duration)

(Backlight Level)

 

If I add a scene with only the thermostat in it I get the following options:

On

Off

Fast On

Fast Off

Bright

Dim

Beep

Fade up

Fade down

Fade stop

Query

 

It's acting like a light.

The only way I get those options is if I add it to a scene and add a z-wave Smoke detector in the scene with it. No this does not fix the issue. I did find a work around by setting up multiple scenes with just the thermostat in it. Then I turn scenes on through program 'then' statements.

That's strange. Z-Wave devices have nothing to do with Insteon. The choices should be available for both programs and scenes even if there's no other device in the scene.

If the thermostat appears correctly with the ISY, but not on MobiLinc, then the problem is not the thermostat. The heat pump thermostat is somewhat new. You might want to notify Wes about your problem, he really takes time out to solve problems.
