Insteon configuration panel

Add me to the list! Any idea when this will be released?

I’d also like to be on this list. I’m pulling my hair out right now trying to change over from homeseer.

I just submitted the pull request for the control panel. I will try to get you all a refreshed video so you can see it in action.

i want in! i want in!! thanks @teharris1 incredible work! :clap:

Please forgive the newbee nature of this question: Just starting into HA Rpi with the 2413U PLM. Been running HomeSeer for like 15 years. I’ve got the PLM detected and now trying to figure out how get HA to be aware of my (30 or so) Insteon devices. Here’s where my screen sits now. Hoping you can let me know how to get to where you are in this video and/or point me in the right direction for HA/Insteon/Rpi tutorials (Haven’t been able to find a forum subcategory for us yet. Thanks!

I’m with you on that!

I’m also just starting and wanting to migrate from HomeSeer!

Normally it take a hour or 2 after you first get it loaded to scan your hardwired devices in. Did anything show up? If nothing is scanned in make sure you have the port write and check your logs for any errors. It should read the DB on the PLM and scan the devices and bring them in.

For now i have been using Mark’s insteon Plugin for HomeSeer to program my PLM and devices then plug the PLM into HA for controling. First time i plug it in i had a few issues and had to look into the logs only to find i had the wrong port. Then after that i had a device that the plugin didn’t know and it would cause the discovery to stop.

@teharris1 - I see this didn’t make into the next release (2021.06) Is there a way we can merge this into our own local copy. I see how to do it to the with the API pull request, I just don’t understand how to merge on the frontend pull request?

If you can follow the instructions to set up a frontend dev environment I would be happy to help load my code into it. But I will say, setting up a frontend dev environment is not for the faint of heart.

Frontend development | Home Assistant Developer Docs (home-assistant.io)

Very interested… following.

Great news! One of the two pull requests has been merged into Dev. Now we just need the second PR to get reviewed. Halfway there.

I’m excited for this - thanks for your continued work!

I have been everyday refreshing the Pull Requests and watching the drama. I can’t wait for this and to say good bye to HomeSeer. Now if we could get detached load support on KPL in a future update i would be in heaven.

Is there still a chance this could be in the August releases if it gets approved?

I don’t think so. I believe the August release candidate has been set. I could be wrong but I don’t think so.

Wow I feel like they are giving this update the cold shoulder!

I didn’t see this in 2021.9 either. Any estimate on when it might make it in?

So it doesn’t look like the HomeAssistant Admins seem to want to review and get this change in and even made a comment on if this should be part of the core. You can read the comments about the change and make up your mind but I feel they are unfairly making a grave misjustice towards all the hard work teharris1 has made

After reading the PR, it sounds to me like they are just busy.
