Perceptive Automation has just announced their new 3.0 release. In case you aren't familiar with this product yet, it happens to be one of the most popular home automation packages out there for the Mac platform. This is a free upgrade for all Indigo 2.0 customers, while existing 1.8 customers can receive a $90 discount towards their purchase of v3.0. Some of the new features include:
- Indigo 3.0 now includes native support for the INSTEON thermostat adapter, including thermostat-specific triggers, actions, and Control Page elements.
- Quickly and intuitively create Indigo controlled INSTEON scenes to command multiple modules at once.
- In addition to creating Indigo scenes, Indigo can also remotely create and edit scenes between other modules.
- Indigo 3.0 can now upload user defined basic logic and schedules to the INSTEON PowerLinc 2414U computer interface (as well as the PowerLinc 1132CU). Once uploaded, the Mac can be turned off and basic schedules and actions will continue to execute. See the online help and this forum thread for more information.
