I've seen the posts here that say the Insteon Cloud Hub cannot be controlled by PH. That's ok
with me. I just want PH to know when I am using the hub to control lights. I watched the PH
insteon messages as I trigger a scene with the hub, but PH isn't seeing it. I tried adding my PLM
as a responder to the hub, but I couldn't figure out how to make it work.

I just want to set up a PH trigger that watches for certain commands from the hub. An it be done?

Skip,

Next version of PowerHome will support the newer version of the hub (square). Not as elegant as the previous hub (rectangle) communication option but looks
like it'll be workable.

You're on the right track. You need to link your PLM as a responder of your hub. You'll basically want to add the PLM as a responder to EVERY scene you
want to monitor on the hub. You may be able to get by with a single link but communication will be better (with the possibility of group cleanup commands)
if you add as a responder to every scene.

Ive never really played with the hub from the internal link and control perspective so cant offer much help on how to get the hub into linking mode but I
suspect it should be fairly simple and the same way you would add any Insteon device to the hub. Once the hub is in link mode, you should be able to launch
Insteon Explorer in PowerHome and navigate to the manual linking tab. From there, you'll see an option to link the PLM as a responder. Once you do that,
you should be good to go.

Dave.
