Wow, this has been a long ordeal! I spent about an hour and a half last week speaking with an Elk tech about my Insteon. He was very helpful and walked me through everything. Through him, we discovered that the 2414S was only communicating one way. We were watching it through hyper-terminal...

I wrote to soon. I have been trying it since yesterday, but never got it to work. Today I just updated to Net framework 2.0. That did it. Now Homeseer is installed. I am sorry to be so slow at this, but I can not find the Insteon 2114S. I updated the Insteon plug-in and all went well with...

Madcodger, I really like your idea and am very intrigued with Homeseer, I was unfamiliar with it. However, I have tried installing it on three computers and all of them are having different issues with Net framework settings. After going to Homeseer's helpdesk, I did see that this was an...

I talked with Elk support; they felt the problem is with the 2414S. So, they gave me the site to download the SALad Downloader Program, so I could re-install it. The program comes up, but it says it can not communicate with PLC over Port. I have been trying to call Smarthome, but have not...

Thanks again for all these great thoughts. I am guessing the problem is with the 2414S, but I do not know enough on how to trouble shoot it. I do not have a Controllink. When I purchased Insteon, I got all I thought I needed for it to work with the M1. Beside my switches and the 2414S, I...

Thanks for the replys. I turned M1 power off and have 47 ohms between A and B at the data bus on the M1. I have 43.5 ohms between A and B on each of the XSP's. To double check the wiring, I switched places with my two XSP's. So I was using the other XSPs wire and jack going into the DBH. The...

Thanks, Yes I did. Everything shows up on the "Show keypads and expanders.." screeen. The one for Insteon has the correct firmware. I am sure I am doing a step backwords or something, but I can not see it.

I have an ELKM1Gold, two M1XSP's, an M1DBH and the ethernet module. The one M1XSP is tied into my AMP thermostat (via the M1DBH) and works great. The other M1XSP is updated with the correct firmware for Insteon. As far as I can tell everything is set correctly for the Insteon on the XSP. I...

Great point. Thanks for the info. I would be using some of these on fluorescent lights. I see that Z-wave ZTW100 handles fluorscents lights and at a good price. I am starting to learn the differences now. I have done a lot more research because of the above reply, which was great. Now I am...

Thanks

I want to controll a few lights in a residential and commerical application. Any thoughts on what is the best between z-wave or UPB, or any others? Thanks

I need 6 hours of CE's by the end of January. Anyone know of any upcoming classes in the Charlotte NC area? Thanks
