Scott Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 I have spent the last hour plus reading about the ISY at techmall and here and it would probably be worthwhile to get just as a way to set up all of the scenes here more easily than HouseLinc and to be able to do it via any PC on the network. But I'm hoping that I can replace HLD completely, I just need to know what limitations there are on scheduled events. I have 100+ Insteon devices and they are currently turned on/off via daily events at 20+ times during the day. Does the ISY meet this need and have room for expansion? I read about the triggers and was wondering if those are separate from the timers as well? Link to comment

Hi Scott, ISY supports up to 64 schedules in total; each schedule may be applied to an individual device, a scene, or the whole network of devices (globally). In release 2.3 (we are at 2.1 now, so in about 3 weeks to a month), triggers and schedules shall be linked so that you could have scheduled triggers and triggered schedules. I hope I've been able to answer your questions. With regards, Link to comment
