I went by Home Depot today and purchased the 3M-50 thermostat. The wiring installation to my HVAC system was very easy, but the wireless network configuration was a bit of a pain. I could connect to the thermostat, scan for wireless networks, and enter all of my network settings. When I pressed Submit to connect to my wireless network, the yellow led went out as expected. I was expecting to see the green led, but the thermostat began beeping. There were all zeros scrolling in the upper left of the display. After several attempts at the wireless provisioning I had nothing but nothing but zeros and beeping. I became frustrated and went to get something to eat. When I came back, the thermostat was connected to my wireless network. Go figure.
I have the plugin installed and have started testing. So far, I've been mostly successful using the plugin. The plugin will change the temperature setting of the thermostat. I have seen a couple errors. The first error was when restarting HomeSeer. It looks like the clock sync failed. I have restarted HomeSeer several times and have been unable to reproduce this error. However, the thermostat clock is not synced with my computer. This setting is enabled on the config page.

This error was returned when setting a setpoint. I'm also unable to reproduce this error.

I'll continue testing on Saturday.
