I have an X10 Powerhouse TW523 connected to the Elk alarm, and an Insteon 2413S connected to the ISY. The ISY CAN control the existing X10 modules I have added to the ISY.

Update:   I am very impressed by the Elk/Isy interface. I have the Isy 994 with the Elk and X10 modules. As I replace the X10 switches and dimmers with the Insteon devices, I export from the Isy and import to Elk using the previous X10 device codes. The modules are controlled by the existing Elk...

I received the ISY994i, two on/off modules, and a new dimmer switch. I had an old 2476DIV dimmer laying around.

I have about 25 X-10 devices now, assigned (somewhat randomly) IDs between A1 and O8. I can physically change the IDs, if I know that, for example, K1 and up will never be used by Z-Wave.   If I can do this one time when I add Z-Wave, I can handle that. But I wouldn't like to do that every time...

I currently have an Elk M1 gold system with an X-10 powerline module plugged into the main board. System is 10 or 15 years old and all modules have the latest software. I have an X-10 active bridge plugged into the 220v dryer outlet to connect the two phases.   I think I'm finally fed up with...
