Essential Info

The ISY-99i/IR PRO is one of the most advanced INSTEON controllers on the market and has a ton of features to satisfy the most advanced DIY'er or seasoned home control enthusiast. If you need unbridled control, the ISY-99i/IR PRO is your controller.

The ISY-99i/IR PRO supports up to 1024 devices and scenes and a maximum of 1000 programs. The ISY-99i/IR PRO can receive standard IR commands sent from a universal remote to control all of your INSTEON devices and scenes. The ISY-99i/IR PRO controller is able to configure and program INSTEON devices using INSTEON native protocols and specifications allow it to directly write to INSTEON devices internally instead of just in the controller, creating a more robust network. You can set up timer events and custom event triggers, as well as monitor and control all the INSTEON-compatible devices in your home from any web-browser anywhere in the world! Now you can check if the lights in your house were left on and remotely control them from your computer at the office.

This kit includes an INSTEON Dual-Band PLM Serial Interface, allowing for direct communication with your existing INSTEON network from the ISY-99i/IR PRO controller. The PLM features built-in dual-band technology that sends and receives INSTEON signals via powerline and radio frequency (RF), so it doubles as an Access Point. This makes it ideal for new INSTEON installs if you have or plan to use an RF-only INSTEON-compatible device like a remote, thermostat, motion sensor or contact sensor.

    GEOFFREY -- los angeles, CA   9/22/2011
    I bought this thing based on reviews, and the reviews don't do it enough justice. Key things that matter: 1) Functionality - it's there. 2) Support - their Forum is great, and other owners / the company will answer your question right away 3) With the device and a little coding (whether you keep it simple with their built in program writing - or write your own externally that interface with it) really the possibilities are endless. if i were to do it over, i might not get the IR version (i'm using a 3rd party device to send events to it anyway - but it was a cheap option, so whatever) Yes, it costs more than the regular insteon controller, but it's WAY worth it. Get it.
    CHRISTOPHER -- seattle, WA   12/27/2010
    Easy to install and use. It does everything I want. Only problem is that some SimpleHomeNet items are not compatible with it (example item #31276).
    JAMES -- cortland, NY   12/25/2010
    The ISY series is an absolute killer product with amazing capabilities and product support. Spend some time learning what you can do with this box and you'll love it. For example, once you figure out that Insteon wall switches are also controllers, you can program the ISY to do almost anything, anywhere in your home. I replaced my comprehensive X10 installation with Insteon and the ISY99i/IR Pro and can say that this goes way beyond X10, and is far more reliable.
    JULIAN -- brighton, MA   12/1/2010
    Fantastic.
    ED -- petersburg, NJ   11/18/2010
    Could not get the unit to recognize any of the modules in my system.
    STEVEN -- emerald hills, CA   10/21/2010
    Great device. Needs better support from Smarthome. Had to call and interface with the manufacterer to understand the programming better. Once that was done it worked great.
    EDWARD -- los altos hills, CA   10/14/2010
    Great product; not so great documentation. It took me a while to get my head around programming this thing, but once I figured it out I was very pleased with how well it works.
    RICHARD -- marysville, WA   5/16/2010
    This is a very nice product so far. It has somewhat of a learning curve for getting to the interface for use with Mac and PC's. I found the interface intuitive and I like building and making scenes from the computer. Looking into the add on's for power (brueltech), and weatherbug. Very good product.
    jmw -- Florida   11/22/2011
    Pros: as many comments below state, very powerful code set and excellent support, active online forum. New firmware has been timely and raises the bar each time. Cons: locked up twice so far, once after a thunderstorm, the web interfaced locked up my laptop once I had it up for about an hour, the enclosure is plastic, looks more like a ham radio project than a commercial product expecially next to my Sonos interface, and that big blue light on the front is obnoxious and bright even after the firmware update that decreased the brightness. Overall I'm happy with the ISY-99, just haven't had the time yet to get into the programming aspects yet. The latest firmware has the Elk security system interface so that will likely be my next Smarthome purchase.
    Joe -- monmouth beach, NJ   4/23/2011
    Being disappointed by the SmartLinc Central controller, I was slightly skeptical going into yet another new unknown product. I have to say that even after just two days, this ISY-99 blew me away with its capabilities. It allowed to me do things that I had not even conceived like controlling my A/V equipment in scenes with my existing iTach WIFI2IR device and even my bathroom towel heaters which were ALWAYS getting left on indefinitely. I keep coming up with new scenes/programs and I think my favorite is the automatic garage door nightly closure since I seem to forget to close it all the time. The iPhone/iPod/iPad MobiLinc app is so easy to use that I wind up using it more than the KeypadLinc devices installed in my house. I might even consider using an older iPod/iPad as a touchscreen mounted on a wall since it gives one access to each and every device/scene/program now in the hundreds already. Kudos to SH & UDI for delivering a controlling capability without the high $$$ of higher end systems. The forums are a huge help too and I want to thank all of the users on those forums for sharing their own experiences to help make mine easier and more pleasurable. All in all the best thing I've added to my house! I feel like I truly have a Smart Home now, finally.
    Rich -- new brighton, MN   2/15/2011
    I love this device for use with my Insteon network. I find it very easy to program and the ISY support staff provides incredible customer assistance. Programming of the devices is so much easier than manually programming them. I especially love the IR infrared compatibility as I can now run all of my lighting from my URC MX-800 remote control. The ISY is a tremendous buy and provides a lot of value. Highly recommended!
    Jim B -- Central New York   12/30/2010
    This product is fantastic. The learning curve can be substantially traversed in a few hours, but after that, you start to see the power and flexibility of this box. I replaced a whole-house X10 system with Insteon plus the ISY, and I couldn't be happier. Droid/iPhone access from anywhere optional but inexpensive app makes it a must-have. Drawbacks: Needs a starter's manual with advanced tips. For example, programs were pretty easy, but I stumbled a bit in trying to figure out how to use date/time as a trigger instead of only the time turns out you just uncheck the daily box. Another tip: once you realize that every Insteon switch is a controller from which you can trigger any event, you can really exploit the power of the ISY99. If you've got a few hours to spare, buy it.
    Brian -- chicago, IL   12/28/2010
    Every once in a while you buy a product that leaves you thinking how one Earth did I manage so long without it? The ISY-99 is just such a product. I have a fairly extensive Insteon network in my home 70+ devices, and the ISY-99 hasn't missed a beat. The bottom line, excellent product!
    Vinnie -- Florida   12/15/2010
    The device I received would not recognize IR commands from my Harmony One remote nor any of the other 6 remotes in my house. A bit of a learning curve for the device/scene configuration software, but it's functional. Although I'm not sure I'll use it to its potential. Also, when you use your browser to go to the ISY-99i control page, the interface is fairly basic -- not really something that would be useful or easy to use from an internet tablet or an internet phone with web capability. The SmartLinc had a much more visually appealing web interface and it was still fairly simplistic. I thought I might use an Android internet tablet and an Android app as the controller, but the only Android app I found that looked decent Conductor could only be downloaded/installed from Android Market, and I couldn't find a sub-$300 tablet that had access to the Android Market. Not sure I'll keep it as the additional cost for the IR version of the device would be wasted if I can't get it to recognize any of my remotes.
