How can i create and all off/on command for a group of insteon and x10 devices ?

 

You need to use a program. In the following example, 'All Lights' is a group of multiple Insteon devices. The first X10 line executes an X10 group command and the second is an example of a single device command. When mixing X10 and Insteon commands, adding a Wait between commands seems to improve reliability.

 

If
       Control 'Bedroom Keypad - All Off' is switched On
    Or Control 'Rear Keypad - All Off' is switched Off

Then
       Set Scene 'All Lights' Off
       Wait  1 second
       Send X10 'K1/All Lights Off (1)'
       Wait  1 second
       Send X10 'L1/Off (11)'

Else
  - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

thanks for the fast response... can I do this based on a schedule ? I am new to this so hopefully my question makes sense

Absolutely. You can incorporate schedules into programs and also into folders containing programs. Take a look at these two wiki pages:

If you get stuck just post more details about what you're trying to accomplish.
