Woodshop thermostat automations via ISY Portal

Thanks to Universal Devices (UDI) we have an ISY-994 with Z-Wave and access to their web Portal!

We can also enable Google/Alexa/IFTTT now.  https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY_Portal_Amazon_Echo_Integration_V3#Thermostats

For example, in the woodshop, we use our Axis Communications camera motion detector to set-back the thermostat when room is empty for an hour.

For the main hydronic baseboards, we’re going to need to source a line-voltage compatible automation thermostat, or a conversion unit like the Honeywell RC840T
