Wibar Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I have my ISY994i ZW/IR PRO Z-Wave | INSTEON | X10 Automation Controller connected to my network and am able to access it via the ISY Finder. I have a PowerLinc Modem - INSTEON 2413U USB Interface (Dual-Band) connected to my computer and have installed the driver. I have several Insteon 2477D SwitchLinc Remote Control Dual-Band Dimmer switches in my home and would like to see if I can control them via the ISY. I've spent quite a bit of time reading online documentation, but am missing something. I'm not able to get the switches to show up on the Admin Console. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Are you trying to use your Isy or computer with your insteon devices? If using the Isy; the 2413u is not compatible with it. You'll want to use the Isy wiki instructions in order to get started. If using your computer, you'll want to use compatible software such as indigo or Home Assistant Link to comment
Brian H Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) You need a 2413S serial port PLM. For use with an ISY994i. Connected to the serial connector on the PLM. It looks like a Network RJ45 cable but it is serial signals. Uses a network style cables between the PLM and the ISY994i serial connector Port A connector.

Wibar Posted October 17, 2022 Author Share Posted October 17, 2022 Should I keep the USB PLM and use a different hub? Or should I keep the ISY994i and try to find a serial PLM? It seems they're not readily available, or are quite expensive. Link to comment

It seems they're not readily available, or are quite expensive. You'll have to decide that. You're on the Isy forum so we'd say find a 2413s. You could also wait for the new eisy to be released (preorders next month) and use that with your USB PLM. Link to comment
