Demo Environment / R&D of Capabilities

[SmartHomeNM]

I just learned about ISY today. It seems to be the perfect solution for a small home lighting project I'm starting. But before purchasing, I want to know what I'm getting into and also if this system will suit my needs. Is there any type of demo environment, where I can play with the programming interface and see what inputs/outputs are available? Even if there's someone who could answer my questions, see if this is the right product?

 

Brief overview of my project: 

 

Scenario 1: If dim/dark/nighttime turn on accent lights at 20% brightness.

 

Scenario 2: If bright/daytime turn on accent lights at 100% brightness.

 

Wondering if I can tie in input from both an occupancy sensor and photocell to drive the logic.

You can find several You Tube videos of the Admin Console and feature setup on line. Everything you inquired about is 100% doable with the right equipment and some basic programs.
