Our most affordable way to establish the basic foundation of your Indigo/INSTEON home automation system. Take advantage of this Indigo Basic Kit (Lite Version) and you'll save $20 versus purchasing the Indigo Lite software and associated modules a la carte. . . . 3 . . . 2 . . .1! Lift off! Here’s the package you need to launch yourself into the Indigo/INSTEON home automation world. Indigo was the first Mac based home automation software program for OS X and it was the first home automation program on any platform to provide full featured communications with the INSTEON PowerLinc V2 Controller. Indigo now also supports the more advanced INSTEON PowerLinc Modem USB which is an integral part of this Indigo Basic Kit. And . . . now Indigo is the first home automation program to offer a free native iPhone / iPod touch App called Indigo Touch which means you can control your home no matter where you are. Read all about it on this Perceptive Automation page. You will be amazed at how seamlessly the App works with Indigo. INSTEON is rapidly establishing itself as the home automation standard for the future. It is a robust network that is much less susceptible than other home automation networks to the kind of electrical interference and noise commonly encountered within the home – and, it’s super fast! If you have experienced the fickleness of X10, then INSTEON is definitely for you. If you’re tired of constantly moving and experimenting with the placement of BoosterLincs and FilterLincs to get that X10 lamp in the far bedroom to respond, then INSTEON is for you. Every INSTEON module is a repeater, and so unlike X10, your home automation network will only become stronger as more INSTEON modules are added. A Beginning and Easily Expandable This Indigo Basic Kit (Lite Version) is a scaled down version of the Indigo Starter Package (Pro Version). This Kit, however, is built around Indigo Lite and not the Indigo Pro version. You can study the differences between Indigo 4 Lite and Indigo 4 Pro by referencing this Product Comparison Chart. The Indigo Basic Kit gets you into the Indigo/INSTEON world at the very lowest price possible. This kit contains the foundational items you need to setup your basic INSTEON home automation network. And . . . if and when your needs expand beyond 20 devices or you add a sprinkler controller or an INSTEON compatible thermostat, or one of the modules from the EZIOxxx family, you can choose at that time to upgrade to Indigo Pro. The software upgrade will be seamless. Your Indigo Pro upgrade code will simply unlock the functions (as indicated on the Product Comparison Chart ) within your current Indigo and voila, you're then an Indigo Pro user. You do not have to re-install the Indigo software. Contents of Kit Here's what you'll find in this very affordable Indigo Basic Kit (Lite Version)
