Out of curiosity, does this new release have ability for me to NOT display menu items that I don't care anything about? Example, I have an EcoBee thermostat with a separate mobile app that I really like, so I don't care anything about the menu item for "My Thermostats". I would prefer it not even show in the list. It will just confuse the wife. Is that possible to not show it via a configuration screen?

 

Likewise, can menu items be renamed? I see that every menu item is preceeded with the word "MY" and I never really understand why that is done. I already know that everything I am controlling is mine and not my neighbors Can the user rename those menu categories?

 

Thanks for any opinions.

Hi SunSentry,

 

If you don't have any thermostats in the ISY (IE you don't have Venstar INSTEON thermostats configured in your ISY) then the My Thermostats option will not be displayed.

 

Currently the menu options cannot be renamed. The "My" prefix is rooted in how the ISY refers to devices, scenes, etc through the web interface for ISY.
