Scenarios

See some of the ways you can use the USB Modem Interface
Access from anywhere

You’re at work and forgot to turn off the coffee maker. Open the controller app and switch it off instantly, saving energy and money

Voice Control

Waling into your home with your hands full, you can say, “Alexa, turn on the kitchen lights.” The lights come on without you needing to fumble for a switch.

Motion + Night = Light

Create detailed automations like only having an Insteon Motion Sensor turn on the stairway lights when it detects motion from bedtime to sunrise

Instant Alerts

While on vacation, you receive an alert that your water leak sensor detected moisture under the sink. You can immediately call a neighbor to check on it before serious damage occurs.

Essential info

Part of a Larger, Smarter Family

The USB Modem Interface allows third-party software control over a whole host of Insteon devices - from sensors to remotes, from switches to keypads, from plugs to switched outlets, Insteon has your Connected Home needs covered.

Level-Up Your Connected Home Control

When using the third-party controller software or app, you get the flexibility and control to easily add new devices, link devices together in scenes, and set schedules. For even more convenience, use a smart assistant like Amazon Alexa or Google Home to control your Insteon devices with your voice.*

It’s OK to Dip Your Toe In

Unlike other traditional “smart” devices that are focused on controlling one device or maybe one room, Insteon is a whole-home solution. You can start small with manually linking a few devices then “go big” by outfitting your entire home with the Insteon ecosystem with the USB Modem Interface with third-party controller software. Our solutions can easily scale right alongside you as your Connected Home needs grow.

It Just Works

Other connected home switches use Wi-Fi or other radio-only signals. Insteon utilizes a patented dual-band mesh technology that communicates over both existing power lines and a wireless radio for unparalleled reliability and range.

Peace of Mind

Rest assured, you can receive instant notifications on your smart phone when a sensor has detected water, motion, or a door/gate has been opened.

works

a surge related to a power outage damaged my old serial PLM. I have had it for many years (from 994 days).
the power line transceiver circuit was apparently damaged, which really confused the diagnosis, some things worked, and others didn't. Th links to the Alexa app also stopped working, as did all of my Polyglot nodes. Since I now have a POLISY, I ordered a USB PLM. I ended up having to delete the old modem, restore the new modem, and restore all of the devices. Everything now works again. I haven't noticed any difference in performance. I don't remember how I got the Alexa stuff working. I had to reinstall all of the Poly nodes.

Nice upgraded version

Replaced an older 2413U PLM that was starting to give erroneous communication errors on my Indigo system. The new version (v2.7) works flawlessly with better fidelity and no more comm errors.

Worked great!

I've had an ISY 994i with an Insteon serial PLM for seven years controlling my Insteon light switches. It was always a little wonky with the java interface and ISY took it out of support and wanted me to upgrade to a similar device for way too much money. Instead I bought this USB PLM and plugged it into my Proxmox server. I spun up a new Home Assistant VM and it instantly recognized the USB device. Re-paired all the devices with the new modem and set up all my scenes. Everything is working great. Hooray!
