Has anyone tried the Insteon thermostat? http://www.smarthome.com/2491t1.html Mickey Argo |

This might be important if linking is required (I'm just guessing here). Personally, I don't have one and would likely look to a different solution. That would suggest that someone else would need to take lead on any thermostat-specific development. Gregg |

The ability to poll status and control it appear to use insteon direct commands (vice require linking). So, the i2 vice i1 issue probably doesn't exist. I suspect that creating a new lib that implements the command-specific syntax for this device would not be all that difficult and I could help it along. |
