What is this?

Programming Smartlinc or any other Insteon controller can be confusing, especially if you have some X10 devices still in your system like I do. Insteon does provide a way to add X10 devices to your controllers but it requires a cryptic string of text and numbers to do so. Basically, I got tired of referencing this SmartHome Wiki page to load my X10 devices into the Switchlinc. Along wih X10, Insteon scenes and devices codes can be programmed into Insteon controllers.

So, I built this little web application that will generate X10, Insteon scene and Insteon device codes. I had fun creating this web app and hope you enjoy it. Let me know if it was helpful in programming your automated home.

Yes, it works on mobile devices.

I used Twitter Bootstrap with it's responsive design, so it should work well on mobile browsers. Just launch your browser and go to http://www.thirstymandesigns.com or scan the code below with a QR reader.

What's next?

• I would like to add the capability to create macros of codes as you create each one.
• Develop it as a true mobile application.
