Insteon Pro Hub (HomeKit)

[mworsnop]

Will the plugin work with the Pro Hub?

Actually now I am wondering why I bought the pro hub in the first place. I was trying to tie everything together.

Insteon switches, Hues lights, Zwave switches, a few X10 switches, August locks, Alexa.

I started with Siri and then added Alexa.

Seems like I should be able to do everything with HS3 and the right plugins??

the Insteon Pro Hub is not supported. Apparently it has different firmware than the regular Hubs.

OK just to be sure I get the correct stuff, if I have a standard Insteon hub from HS3 I can create a scene that could set Hue lights, Insteon lights and trigger that scene from an Alexa command.

I really only got the Pro Hub as I was trying use Siri to do this stuff. Alexa would be lots better I am hoping.

Any thoughts? Did I get that scenario above correct?

THANK YOU for taking time to reply!

i'll have to let others chime in here. I don't use Alexa or a hub.

You do not need an insteon hub to control the insteon devices using the plugin?

you can use a PLM 2413 series controller, but I have no idea about the integration with Alexa

Does your plugin only work with the PLM 2413 or does it also talk to an insteon hub? I guess I am asking what the requirement is for your plugin to communicate with insteon?

I am going to put in a HomeTroller-SEL stop using the old pcs I have used for years.
