Insteon Serial Interace PowerLinc Modem, 2413S – Dual-Band PLM Makes Controllers & Bridges Insteon-Compatible
Description
The Serial Insteon PowerLinc Modem is a serial-based home
automation interface that allows PC- and hardware-based automation controllers
to control Insteon -compatible lights, appliances, heating/air conditioning
systems and alarm systems directly via the Insteon network. This home
automation interface uses simple RS-232 commands, allowing any device with a
programmable serial port to send Insteon commands easily, making controllers
such as SimpleHomeNet’s and Universal Devices’ IP bridges instantly Insteon
compatible. The dual-band interface sends and receives both powerline and
radio frequency (RF) Insteon signals, so it doubles as an Access Point. This
makes it ideal for new Insteon installs and if have or plan to use an RF-only
Insteon -compatible remote, thermostat, motion sensor and contact sensor. The
RF signal can bypass electrical noise or attenuation near the PC and it pulls
many of the “distant” Insteon devices one hop closer, which can expand the
size of potential installations into even larger homes and commercial
buildings. From the Manufacturer The Serial Insteon PowerLinc Modem is a

like an Access Point for phase bridging and RF to/from power line; 1023 links
(compared to around 800 links previously); Added a beep sounder; Red/Green LED
light; Supports faster reading and writing of the PLM’s database by another
controller; Much lighter weight; No pass-through outlet. Please Note: The
controller connected to the Serial Insteon PowerLinc Modem must remain powered
on and running the controller program connected to the controller or host at
all times of usage. Additionally, the dual-band interface does not supply
power to external devices.
