    HS3 Beta Insteon Plugin v3.0.3.0 with X10 Support

    Changes:
    - Added basic X10 support
    - Small change to device type and device subtype values
    - added Hub settings. see the version 1.9.x notes. (3.0.3.1)
    - program group changes (3.0.3.1)
    - expires 11/15/2013 (3.0.3.1)

    Known issues:
    - Polling X10 devices isn't finished
    - X10 performance is not guaranteed

    Please reply here with any errors you get during startup or otherwise. Please do not start any new threads in the forum related to this HS3 beta.

    Installation:

    1. shutdown hs3.
    2. copy the files in the attached zip to your hs3 root directory
    3. Copy your existing insteon.ini to the HS3 config folder
    4. Start HS3, enable the plugin and restart HS3.

    First Time Users: you must set the interface port on the plugin configuration page and then restart HS3.

    X10 User Instructions:

    You must create the hs devices on the hs device management page using the Add Device button. Enter the Code (eg A1) only, don't bother with the Address field or the Device Type field, that will be populated as "Insteon X10".

    You will see an extra tab labeled Insteon.

    There are three options on the Insteon tab:
    1. Supports Dimming (as opposed to just on & off). this will add a slider to the hs device for dimming control.
    2. Support Preset Dimming (typically Smarthome x10 devices)
    3. Supports Status Requests (typically 2-way devices)

    select the appropriate ones per the physical x10 device.

    Click the "Save as Insteon X10" button to save the device as an X10 device that will be controlled by the Insteon Plugin.

    you may edit these values later and use the Done button on Insteon tab

    If for some reason, you already created a bunch of x10 devices, you may use the "Update X10 Devices" on the plugin config page to assign any hs device that have a valid x10 code to the plugin. Then use the device management page to configure the device.

    Enjoy!

    Plug-in expiration

    Mark,

    Just installed the new plug-in version 3.0.3.0 and I see in the startup log that this still expires tomorrow (October 30). Any chance you could change the expiration date and give us some more time?

      Doh! i looked right at that before i made the build and it didn't register. I'll post another one tonight.

      Just waiting for HS3 to release. I think the plugin is about ready too.

            yah, I think hst changed something in .38

            try deleting one of the devices from the dev mgmt. page and restarting hs and see if the error goes away for that one device. if so, you may need to delete all of them and let the plugin recreate them.

              Well, just for kicks, tried simply restarting hs3...no errors detected during subsequent restart.
