I just received a Insteon Leak Sensor and would like to use it with PH. It is not a listed device on the PH 2.1.4 device table. It appears to be a part-time listener like a motion sensor for battery life reasons. Here is some information from from the manual.

INSTEON
INSTEON powerline mesh repeater
No
INSTEON RF mesh repeater
No
INSTEON controller
Yes
INSTEON responder
No
Maximum links/scenes
400
Commands supported as
responder
On Group 1 (Dry)
On Group 2 (Wet)
Hear
tbeat (Group 4)
Software configurable
Yes
RF range
Up to 150 feet (open air)
Phase bridge detect beacon
No
INSTEON device category
0x10
INSTEON device subcategory
0x08 (915MHz RF frequency)

What should I add to the Device table to add it as a device in PH. It does have a Set button but PH needs to know how to interpret what it is.

Thanks,

A new Types is needed.    The 2440 makes a good model to
copy from as it has Controller Only nodes like the Leak
Sensor.

Ctrl Groups = 4
Resp Groups=0
Devcat=16
Subcat=8
Mem Top=4096
DB Type=Linear

The Devices definition requires

IEngine=I2CS - this requires the I2CS Zip be installed
Use Ext for ALDB=checked
