I found a driver that works

I got a global cache Ip2SL connected to it, I enabled the multiport on the ip2sl , and it works great. Just having trouble adding a slave amp, the driver only allows 6 zones and I tried putting two units in master and run it with another ip2sl but doesn-t work, only the first one is working

OSD Audio Nero-Max 12 (1).c4i

Did anyone find the driver? is the same rs232 commands for DAXX66 from dayton audio, I've been trying to write it but no luck yet

Ok... first, could you tell me how would you like the driver documentation to be? I've tried my best to explain how to properly setup an Insteon system for Control4 integration, but since I'm the developer of the driver, I may have skipped some steps biased by having spent too much time learning how Insteon work. I would be more than happy to enhance the documentation, just let me know what you consider missing.

 

As for the slave dimmer sync, you WILL NOT be able to achieve perfect sync of ANY slave dimmer/keypad or other... Insteon protocol is too slow and discard any information packet coming from a module if another information is sent at the same time on the network... But the protocol will resend any "command" to a module if this one does not acknowledge reception. That mean Insteon is really reliable for any CONTROL behavior but lack consistency on the feedback/receive side. Even if you use all the native Insteon stuff with the hub and mobile app, it will miss some keypad or slave dimmer feedback. You have to live with that limitation.

Also, all the Link to PLM and auto-bind feature of the driver happen to be very buggy, so we had to remove it from the latest driver release.

The only way to get an insteon system integrate in a reliable way in C4 is to do all the linking and scene in Houselinc and then add the corresponding dimmer or scene driver in Composer. If you forgive the flaky feedback side, you can still get a rock solid system.

As for scene, just don't just C4 Advanced Lighting Agent with Insteon Loads... Build your scene with Houselinc, and use a scene dimmer in composer and then put this scene dimmer into the scene and it will work perfectly (don't expect navigator feedback for those loads though!)

I was just reading your release papers of the driver. I'm too are desperate to be able to use Insteon with C4 since my client has been using INSTEON and all the house is hooked with INSTEON.  He's using an Isy994i pro , and all scenes and linkage was been made though that, If I unplugged the controller (isy) the links are still there so I'm guessing if I put the PLM directly to a RS232 out of an EA3 , I could get it to work with your driver, am I right? Or I'm missing something?
