Can this be configured to turn a light on when the door is shut, and off when the door is open? (Like an occupancy alert).

hi. yes it can. but it's dependent on the software being used. such as houselinc. you should be able to link it directly to another insteon device as u suggest in your question but I have not tried that

I believe so, also if you are running this with a home automation controller you can do pretty much anything with it ( send txt, email alert, etc...) hope this helps out.

Yes there is a setting that will turn it on manually. You press the button til it goes to "O". Great for troubleshooting lights during the day.

I don't think so, I have it installed to be turned on/off using the switch at the door.

Yes, it has its own light when the door is open and when the thing is use. Plenty bright but not annoyingly so. Hope that helps

If it was powered by regular power it might have that option, but since it's battery powered once the sensors realize it's night it automatically turns on when movement is detected. No need to mess with any switches.

Yes we have ours on a timer, but it can be setup for a standard switched light.

Yeah, it's built to do that. There is a 'home' and an 'away' mode. You just assign which triggers you want to be active for each one. For mine I have doors and windows only when we're at home and when we are out the away setting will trigger the alarm with doors windows and the motion detectors.

Yes you can turn light on and off. You can have steady light or have strobe action going. It is a really bright light and will scare any intruder and temporarily blind them giving you a great advantage. Hope this info is helpful.

It has options to turn off and on.. I have my light come on at dust and shut off at midnight .. I also believe it has more than on option for times. you would need to plug into the device itself

Yes, this has a Motion Sensor feature and the ability to automatically power off at a set time.

this device can't do what you're asking. you might want to look at a mechanical timer that gives you several options of turning on and off your appliances

It should work just fine. Mine will turn on the lights when I open the door.

you can turn the backlight off or it or have it on all the time. if off, it will come on with alerts

No, The switch has an on/off button selection usable any time you wish to turn the light switch on or off.

Yes. You can open and close the door from anywhere. Also I'm getting prompt alerts whenever door is open or closed.

No, a light does not turn on when the door opens. A light does turn on when it's actively microwaving.

No unless you want it to dial out when set off. If you want it as a alert when a door is opened or a window works perfect. I got it to keep my teenager from sneaking out havnt had a problem since.
