Posted November 9, 20186 yr I am hoping to replace an Insteon outdoor switch, 2634-222, with a GE Z-Wave Plus outdoor switch. I'm wondering if I can control the new switch, controlling my Christmas lights, with a program running in my Insteon version 4.7.3. Or is it necessary to upgrade to version 5.0.x? Thanks, Ron

November 9, 20186 yr I only have the ISY (zw). It controls them directly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

November 11, 20186 yr Make sure you get from a reliable seller and get the zwave PLUS version. They look the same, but the range is much much better with the plus version. I have both kinds

I run a 100% zwave home and the only controller I have is the ISY with zwave card. No separate hub. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk To be more precise..... you need ISY with a Zwave dongle. With that it works perfectly. I have 60+ Zwave devices operated from my ISY.
