Hi new to smartthings need help how to install insteon 2477D dimmer switch.
Insteon is a different protocol and not directly compatible with SmartThings. SmartThings works primarily with Zigbee ( using the home automation protocol, ZHA 1.2) or Zwave.

Some members have been able to set up an indirect Insteon integration using some additional hardware, but itās quite a technical project doesnāt necessarily give you all the features.
See the following article in the community-created wiki:

Thx for the info really appreciated.
I control all my light switches and on/off modules with an Insteon Hub via a custom device type in ST. Works well. Canāt use the motion sensors but there is a way, just need the old Insteon Hub or the smartlinc thing I believe.
Hi Michael,
For a non-programmer, can you give some step by step instructions for the custom device type you mention. As an example, I donāt understand how to create a custom device type - donāt really see any way to do that in ST.
Start with this to get an overview of the process:
Beat me to it by THIIIIIIIIIIIS much!
