will this work?
« on: January 06, 2006, 11:59:56 pm »
I am looking at purchasing several INSTEON SwitchLinc V2 — Dimmer 1000W wall switches but I don't know how to control them from Pluto. What device plugs into the pluto Core to control a RF light switch?

Try this one : http://www.smarthome.com/1411cu.html Is the only thing I see that can be linked to computer.

We don't have insteon here and i'm afraid is not supported right now.

But if you have such a device and documentation of how it works (what you need to send to it to do something, and what you receive from it) you can create a working pluto device by implementing it as Generic_Serial_Device.
You'll need to write small piecies of Ruby code on pluto's web interface and that's it.
