1. Purpose
The purpose of this docu ent is to guide the syste ’s installer with the steps
necessary to install and configure the Universal Devices’ ISY syste and operate
the GUI.
ISY co es configured for co unications with the device(s) of your choice. The
package contains:
i. Power supply
ii. Ethernet cable (Blue Cable)
iii. A Serial/RS232 cable – for advanced ad inistrative tasks. If you
would like to view syste status using Windows Hyper-ter inal or
any other ter inal e ulation software
iv. Docu entation and Utilities disk
v. Quick setup guide
2. Theor of Operation
All ISY syste s are e powered with UPnP (Universal Plug & Play) stack
through utilization of which all the devices on the network can sea lessly
co unicate with each other and other co puters on the network. ISY syste s
co e e bedded with their own browser based GUI and, as such, there is no need
for any software installation besides the nor al Java runti e and, optionally,
Excel for trending and reporting.
UPnP enables the devices on the network to auto atically show up as resources
on the “Network Neighborhood” or “My Network Places” on host co puters just
like a shared printer. For UPnP to work, the devices (and specifically ISY
syste s) need to be able to advertise their presence on the network and,
further ore, be able to co unicate their state changes to the network. In this
respect, then, the ain prerequisites for successful operations are
i. Network enabled environ ent
ii. Configuration of firewall progra s (besides Windows Firewall) to allow
for the devices to co unicate with the host syste beyond the local
network
- 6 -
3. Installation and Configuration
Configuration is required only if ISY does not show up auto atically.
3.1 Installation
Please perfor the following steps before plugging the ISY into power:
i. Connect the Ethernet cable to ISY and to your network hub. Note: the
network ust be DHCP enabled. If your DHCP is not enabled, please
consult ISY Installation and Configuration Guide on the acco panying
CD
ii. Connect the Serial co unications cable, provided with your Insteon
PLM (sold separately), to the connector arked Port A on the ISY and to
your co puter.
Plug in the power supply into ISY and then into a power outlet.
3.2 Prerequisites
3.2.1 Host Computer Software
i. Windows XP (for other versions of Windows, a separate guide is
provided)
ii. Internet Explorer 6 and above
iii. Java 1.5 (JRE 1.5) – included in the setup disk
iv. Microsoft Excel, for trending and charts
3.2.2 Network
ii. DHCP enabled network
iii. Ethernet topology
3.3 Host Computer Configuration
Configuration is co prised of three very easy steps:
i. UPnP Configuration
ii. Java Installation
- 7 -
3.3.1 UPnP Configuration
UPnP is nor ally disabled on all co puters by default. In order to ake sure
and/or to configure UPnP, please follow the following steps (refer to Figure 1):
i. Click on M Network Places (either on the Start Menu or Desktop)
ii. On the left Navigation Pane
a. If you see “Hide icons for networked UPnP devices”, you are done.
No further action is necessary
b. If you see “Show icons for networked UPnP devices”, click on it
and let the syste get configured. You are done.
Figure 1– UPnP Configuration
3.3.2 ava Installation
If you already have JRE 1.5v.6 installed, then no further action is necessary.
Otherwise, click on the jre/jdk-1_5_0_11-windows-i586-p.exe on the installation
CD to install JRE.
4. Additional Hardware Required
Please purchase and plug in the S artHo e PLM Version 4.6 in port A of the ISY.

5. Starting the GUI on a Host Computer
If you already have Java installed and UPnP enabled, all you have to do is to click on the
icon M Lighting (refer to Figure 1) appearing in the M Network Places (refer to
Figure 2) either on the Start Menu or Desktop.
If the “My Lighting” icon did not show up on your M Network Places you will need to
follow the configuration steps below.
Configuration is co prised of three very easy steps:
iii. UPnP Configuration
iv. Java Installation
v. If you have any other network firewall software, please contact us to walk you
through the configuration.
Figure 2– Network neighborhood/M Network Places
In your Network Neighborhood/M Network Places double click on the M
Lighting icon, see Figure 1 – UPnP Configuration.
Once you double clicked the My Lighting icon in your Network neighborhood a
browser window will appear, See Figure 3 – Initial Browser.

Figure 3 – Initial Browser
Please do not close this browser window. You can ini ize it but you can not
close it at any ti e while the GUI is running or the application will ter inate.
Following the above browser that opened the ISY GUI will appear and you will
be presented with a user-id/password dialog box, See Figure 4. Please enter
admin for both the user-id as well as the password.

6. Main GUI Components
The ISY GUI is very intuitive and is essentially co prised of four co ple entary panes
(refer to Figure 5)
i. Top Pane
ii. Navigation Pane or Tree View
iii View Pane
iv. Botto Pane
Figure 5– Main GUI Components
6.1 Top Pane
The Top Pane is located in the top section of the GUI and it always contains the enus,
the tool bar, the date, location and sunrise and sunset ti es of that specific location. This
section always re ains the sa e no atter which action you are perfor ing.
6.2 Navigation Pane or Tree View
The Navigation Pane, also known as the Tree View, is located on the left section of the
GUI. The Navigation Pane is a tree view at the top ost of which is the whole Network.
The Navigation Pane ay expand, grow, and shrink based upon the nu ber devices have
been linked to the controller as well as user actions. There are only five distinct types of
nodes that you ay find on the tree view (refer to left pane in Figure 5):
