Page 126 The ISY as the controller of the scene relies on a trigger(s) or schedule(s) defined in the program detail tab to invoke these attributes. Meaning, if the conditions set in the program are met and the action defined is to start the scene, the ISY will use the scene attributes at this level to create the lighting scene.

7.2.3 Add Devices to a Scene Here are some useful terms from the glossary that pertain to adding devices a scene. A controller is a transmitting device that sends out a message to cause an action in a receiving device. A responder is a receiving device that takes action based on a message from a transmitting device.

Figure 107: New Scene Confirm Window 7.3 Organizing INSTEON Devices and Scenes Once added to your ISY, you can manage and organize your INSTEON Devices and Scenes in a variety of ways: Rename. When added to the ISY, devices are named their INSTEON address by default. If you right-click a device or scene, a Rename option is available to help make your devices more identifiable.
Page 132: Controlling Insteon Devices And Scenes
NOTE: In order to delete a Device or Scene entirely from the node list, it must be located in the parent “My Lighting” folder. So, to delete a node, be sure to move it out to “My Lighting” first. My Lighting. Clicking the My Lighting node on the left-hand pane displays a summary of all your devices, their current states, their INSTEON addresses, their device types and their firmware versions.

Page 135: What Is A Group
7.6.2 What Is A Group? Figure 110: Device/Group/Scene Chart In INSTEON terminology, a group is a unidirectional link between a single controller device, and one or more responder devices. All INSTEON devices employ bidirectional communication, and all are theoretically capable of acting as either a controller or a responder.
Page 136 be controllers of up to five groups, and RemoteLincs controllers of up to six groups. In general, a device may be controller of a number of groups equal to its number of buttons/paddles. Finally, the PLM may be a controller of up to 255 groups. All responder devices may be responders in multiple groups.
Page 137: What Is A Scene
7.6.3 What Is A Scene? Figure 111: Device/Scene Chart Scenes are closely related to groups. In ISY terminology, a scene is a named collection of devices, and is displayed in the tree view of the Main tab. When a scene is created by the user, it will initially be empty.

indicating LEDs or a KeypadLinc's button LED, will be updated when the scene is controlled from any other controller in the scene. In this sense, an ISY scene is a multi-directional group. If a scene were created manually without ISY, all of the required unidirectional INSTEON group links and cross-links would need to be manually created.

Page 150: Using 'If Control' Versus 'If Status' In Programs
8.2.14 Using ‘If Control’ versus ‘If Status’ in Programs The reason to use control condition is that a control will trigger a program evaluation upon EACH receipt of the anticipated command. Unlike control, a "status" condition will trigger an evaluation only after a CHANGE in status. If a device status is off, and you turn it off again, the status has not changed and no program evaluation will take place.
Page 151: Modifying Variables In Programs
8.2.16 Modifying Variables in Programs You can also use ISY Programs to modify variables. You can perform standard arithmetic functions on a variable, change a variable to a specific value, or modify a variable’s Init state. The following functions can be performed on a variable: Command Function Performed Sets the variable to a specified value.
Page 152: Using Variables In Notifications
8.2.17 Using Variables in Notifications Variables can also be useful when sending notifications. Say you have a variable that you use to count the number of times a motion sensor is trigged overnight. You could send yourself an email in the morning telling you how many times it was triggered. Your notification might look like this: Figure 119: Email Based on Motion Sensor Trigger 8.3 Notifications...

Page 201: Operator Precedence
9.5.2 Operator Precedence A program's If clause may contain more than one condition. Every condition (including schedule conditions) begins with an operator, which is one of And or Or. The precedence of these operators is: • And • Or Therefore, an expression such as If A or B or C and D would be evaluated as If A or B or (C and D).

Page 206: Statement Execution Order
9.5.4 Statement Execution Order Within the Then or Else clause of a program, statements are executed from top to bottom in the order in which they occur. When a statement calls another program, the called program begins executing, and the calling program immediately continues execution with the next statement in sequence--it does not wait for the called program to complete before continuing.
Page 207: Program Enabled Checkbox
actually execute at startup only if its Enabled box was checked; as of firmware 2.6.6 it will run at startup when set to do so, regardless of the state of the Enabled box. At this point initialization is complete, and event processing begins. All programs which were set during initialization to run, whether schedules, triggers, or Run at Startup, now begin running, and programs initiated by new events will also begin running.
Page 208: Procedural Programs Using Run If
Simply uncheck the Enabled box so that the program does not run independently, and it becomes a callable procedure, complete with conditions. These procedure programs may be nested just as other programs. A main (Universal Devices) Page | 185...

program may call several of these procedure programs consecutively in order to evaluate multiple conditional paths. It should be noted that when a program is not enabled, its conditions are not automatically evaluated. Therefore, its Then and Else clauses may contain statements which alter the program's conditions, without causing the program to stop running the current path, as happens when the program is enabled.

every x number of days/weeks variables since those programs require a reference that always increases by one each day. I have arbitrarily used MS Excel’s system of setting Jan 1, 1900 equal to day one and then counting from there. This offered an opportunity to test these programs well into the future and have a reference to check the values against.

Page 323: Motion Sensor Programs
This is less than satisfactory for several reasons. First, rather than having the on time controlled entirely by the motion sensor, one may wish to allow ISY to determine the timeout, thereby allowing the on time to be changed programmatically: (Universal Devices) Page | 300...
Page 324: Program #2 - Motion 2 – Enabled
11.8.1.2Program #2 - Motion 2 – Enabled Control 'Main Bath Motion.1-Sensor' is switched On And Control 'Main Bath Motion.1-Sensor' is not switched Off Then Set 'Main Bath Lights' On Else Wait 4 minutes Set 'Main Bath Lights' Off Here the Wait time occurs after the motion sensor has timed out and sent the Off command, so if the motion sensor's timer is set to the default of one minute, then the total timeout period of this program will be five minutes.

When the motion sensor stops sensing motion, times out, and sends the Off command, its status becomes False and program 4 begins the countdown to turning the lights off.

11.8.1.6Program #6 - Main Bath Motion Timer – Enabled Status 'Main Bath Motion.1-Sensor' is Off And Program 'Main Bath Motion Timer Enable' is True Then Wait 4 minutes Set 'Main Bath Lights' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') 11.8.1.7Program #7 - Main Bath Motion Timer Enable –...
Page 327: Program #8 - Main Bath Motion Timer Enable/Disable – Enabled
Notice also that when the flag is made True (the Then is executed), the flag program sets itself to run at startup, and when the flag is made False (the Else is executed), the program sets itself to not run at startup. This is the other time (mentioned in the previous paragraph) when a program may run even though the Enabled box is not checked.
Page 328: Program #9 - Main Bath Re-Trigger – Enabled
Earlier I mentioned changing the timeout programmatically, and in fact a two-level timing paradigm is one answer to the previous question. For example, I have an interior (no windows) main bathroom which is completely covered by the motion sensor, except for the bath/shower, because the bath/shower has doors which the sensor cannot see through.
Page 329: Program #10 - Main Bath Motion Timer – Not Enabled
11.8.1.10Program #10 - Main Bath Motion Timer – NOT Enabled Status 'Main Bath Contact.1' is Off Then Wait 40 minutes Run Program 'Main Bath Motion Timer' (Else Path) Else Wait 5 minutes Set Scene 'sMain Bath All Slow' Off When the motion sensor status becomes False, the re-trigger program (program 9) starts the timer program (program 10).
Page 330 This slow-dim-to-off is a technique I use widely where there are motion sensors/timers turning lights off. In my master bedroom and ensuite I don't use motion sensors. Rather, there is a KeypadLinc in a pedestal on either side of the bed. Each has a button which causes both the lamp on the corresponding side of the bed, and the ensuite lights to do a slow fade up which is easy on the eyes in a dark room, to a low level sufficient for the purpose at hand but not bright enough to wake someone.

Here, each time the door status changes, the re-trigger program (program 9) is called. If the motion status is On, or the enable flag is False, the timer will be stopped. Otherwise, the timer program (program 13) will be called again, will reevaluate the door status, and initiate the appropriate time interval.

Page 357: Insteon Notes
12 INSTEON Notes 4344 12.1 INSTEON Basics 12.1.1 What is a Device? Devices are the basic building blocks of your home automation system. These are the things you want to control, like switches, lamp modules, fan modules, water sensor modules, etc. Normal control of devices in a home is done with mechanical switches, that the user has to turn on or off, or adjust ramp rates.
Page 358: What Is A Link
For example, a lamp module with a table lamp attached would likely be a Responder to the scene. When the scene is turned on, the lamp module would turn on. When the scene is turned off, the map module would turn off. Responders are colored blue within a scene.
Page 359: What Is A Scene
12.1.5 What is a Scene? Scenes are simply a collection of links from a controller to one or more responders. For example. in the following diagram, Device 1 controls devices 2, 3, & 4: Figure 196: Scene example We would call this the "Device 1 Scene." A Responder can be the member of numerous scenes, so Responder 4 may also be turned on by the Device 5 Scene.
Page 360: What Is A Group
12.1.6 What is a Group? A Group is a set of logical Links between INSTEON devices. A Link is an association between a Controller and a Responder or Responders. Controllers originate Groups, and Responders join Groups. Devices in a group share all the same settings, for example on-level, ramp rates, etc. This keeps all group members synchronized.
Page 361: Helpful Information On Insteon And Isy
Figure 199: Three Group example 12.2 Helpful Information on INSTEON and ISY First off, some nomenclature. Every Insteon device has an address - in the format aa.bb.cc where the letters correspond to Hex number 0-F. This system allows for over 16 million different addresses and I doubt Smarthome has sold that many devices but at some point they will repeat.
Page 362 The basic Insteon command set that concerns us - outside of the bright and dim commands are on, fast on, off, and fast off. Fast on and Fast off are simply double-presses of an on or off. Insteon gives you some extra flexibility in the way it handles them. On turns the device on to the set dim level at the set ramp rate.
Page 363 'extended messages' - this makes Insteon suitable for high-security applications such as door locks or security systems. So, when you link devices you create the controller link in the controller link table and then you go to the responder and create the responder link to complete the linkage. I should mention that one of the benefits of ISY is that it takes care of creating both sides of the link for you - the controller record in the controller and the responder record in the responder.
Page 364 Let's look at the links a little more 'visually'. Essentially in each device there are two tables that look like below. There is actually a lot more info than this but what's here will suffice for 99% of what we need to do. Note that when you see the Ramp Lvl - it's a number from 0 to 31 for a range of instantaneous to about 9 minutes.
Page 365 Device BB.BB.BB Controller links table (what I control) Link#..My grp #..Resp address..Resp button # Responder links table (what controls me) Link#..My btn #..Ctrlr address..Ctrlr Grp#..Ramp Lvl..Dim Lvl 1....1....AA.AA.AA...1....31....255 To complete the '3-way' control the links tables change and look like this: EXAMPLE 2 Device AA.AA.AA Controller links table (what I control)
Page 366 Device BB.BB.BB Controller links table (what I control) Link#..My grp #..Resp address..Resp button # 1....1....AA.AA.AA....1 Responder links table (what controls me) Link#..My btn #..Ctrlr address..Ctrlr Grp#..Ramp Lvl..Dim Lvl 1....1....AA.AA.AA...1....31....255 So here we have the simplest sort of Insteon scenario. Of course many of us use KPL's to control other devices.
Page 367 Device BB.BB.BB (switchlinc) Controller links table (what I control) Link#..My grp #..Resp address..Resp button # 1....1....AA.AA.AA....3 Responder links table (what controls me) Link#..My btn #..Ctrlr address..Ctrlr Grp#..Ramp Lvl..Dim Lvl 1....1....AA.AA.AA...3....31....255 In KPL's there is an additional kind of link many of us use - the link WITHIN the KPL - for example using button H as an 'all off' turning off everything on the same KPL.
Page 368 Well - a scene is merely a bunch of devices that all have responder records with matching controller addresses and controller groups. This means that they are all prepared to respond to the same group command from the same controller address. The power of the scene is that because the dim level and ramp rate are set in the responder link table a single controller can turn multiple devices on to varying levels of brightness at varying rates.
Page 369 signals. Why does it send nothing? Well - what would it send? There are no records in its controller link table! It has nothing to send to anyone so it just sits there quietly. So ISY linking your device to the PLM makes it visible on the network. Secondly - one of the key features of the ISY is to be able to know - at a glance - what devices are on or off or at what dim level.
Page 370 changes. When it sees the change, it matches the PLM change against its internal tables and you will instantly know the status of your devices. Without using the PLM linkage ISY would have no way of knowing what the status of your system was. Because Insteon commands only hop until they find their destination ISY would not be privy to every command issued on the network.

Small, inexpensive motion sensors have long been a popular part of the X-10 world. You can put them to good use in conjunction with ISY for control of INSTEON lighting. This article discusses the use of X-10 motion sensors with ISY and provides examples of ISY programming for X-10. (Universal Devices) Page | 397...
Page 421 The simplest such program would simply have ISY turn on an INSTEON light when an X-10 motion sensor's On command is received, and turn the light back off when the sensor's Off command is received (in this example, the X-10 motion sensor is set to House/Unit code M1): X10 'M1/On (3)' is Received And X10 'M1/Off (11)' is not Received...
Page 422 leaves the user in the dark until additional motion is detected, which causes the sensor to once again send On. The solution is to listen only for the motion sensor's On command, and completely ignore its Off command, allowing ISY to do the timing and re-triggering: X10 'M1/On (3)' is Received Then Set 'Hall Light' On...

Page 425: Program: Motion Turn On
Many times, it is desirable to limit the period during which the motion sensor controls the light. The simplest example of this might be to have the sensor control the light only between sunset and sunrise: 14.2.5 Program: Motion Turn On From Sunset Sunrise (next day) And X10 'M1/On (3)' is Received...
Page 426: Program: Motion Turn On
Another common example would be to disable the motion control when the light is manually turned on: 14.2.7 Program: Motion Turn On Program 'Motion Disable' is False And X10 'M1/On (3)' is Received And Status 'Rear Floods' is Off Then Set 'Rear Floods' On Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

What steps should I take if I want to redo everything? • It's not really necessary, there is some time/risk involved to do this and is an alternative to deleting all of your scenes (especially if you have a lot of scenes), but if you're one of those guys that just has to have it all here are the steps to go thru it all over again.

• None of the other 4 LEDs should be constantly illuminated. LEDs are only illuminated if; Transmitting to PLM (TX), Receiving from PLM (RX), Writing to Memory (MEM), System error (Error)! If all 4 LEDs are illuminated solid then the ISY is most likely locked up and will need to be power cycled according to the directions in the previous question.

24.1.13 Is there a way I can control the lights on a KeypadLinc with INSTEON commands? • If the KeypadLinc button is part of a scene, the lights will turn on/off either from the GUI (when issuing a scene/group command) or by other controllers linked to it. ISY does not work as a pass through for INSTEON commands;...

EZRain Zone programs. Did I mess up the linking or is there a way to do this? • As far as EZRain, you have not messed anything up. We are still a bit ambivalent as to what should be done with "not purely" INSTEON features such as Sprinkler Zones, number of zones, programming zones, etc.

configuration. We are working on enabling Linksys as well but, to date, we have gotten a little support. • Any plans in the works to let the ISY act as a server to HA software on the PC? (This might be a good option so you can leave the PC on for ease if use/graphical interface/additional features, but if you shut off, it syncs and most if not all of the functionality is saved on the ISY.) •...

automation programs. Planned support for the EZBridge include "HouseLinc" from Smarthome, "mControl" from Embedded Automation or "Indigo" from Perceptive Automation. • In short, with EZBridge IP, you still need to either install their free "utility" or buy another home automation software (HouseLinc, mControl, or Indigo) to be installed on your computer (stationary).

protocol specs. So, if you were implying that 3rd parties could use ISY to issue INSTEON commands (such as PEEK , POKE, etc.) then the answer is NO. ISY is not a pass through bridge. 24.4.5 What OS does this device run on; can I get the source code? •...
Page 669: Have You Thought About An Open Source Project Around The Isy
24.4.11 Have you thought about an open source project around the ISY? • We actually thought about doing precisely that but the OS is licensed and, as such, can never truly become free. Thus, we decided to go for the next best alternative: provide free SDKs to whomever wants to write network applications for ISY.
Page 670: Compatibility
24.5 Compatibility 24.5.1 Is the ISY compatible with SimpleHomeNet products? ISY works with most SimpleHomeNet products. As a matter of fact, with ISY, you can link an EZRain Sprinkler valve to a button on a controller (KeypadLinc, ControLinc, etc.). We are currently working on supporting EZIO such that you could either link the dry contacts (inputs) to another (linkable) INSTEON device or use Triggers to do a series of actions (up to 6) based on EZIOs inputs.
Page 671: Why Do You Have So Little Flash And Ram
24.6.1.1Why do you have so little flash and RAM? • Because we do not need more. We have a multi-tasked web server with an SD based file-system on board. With the current configuration, we still have around 75K of free space left on the flash and 300K on the RAM. 24.6.2 •...

INSTEON scenes offer practical solutions to many domestic lighting problems: tap one key and so set each of the lights in the family room to that state for which the home theatre is most effective, tap another to ensure all basement lights are switched off once at the top of the stairs, or a third to ensure the staircase and upstairs landing lights are both on before a guest is dispatched to...
