CONTROLLED BY AN INSTEON CONTROLLER

Linking an INSTEON Controller to KeypadLinc Dimmer

To remotely control KeypadLinc Dimmer using another INSTEON Controller, follow these steps to link
KeypadLinc Dimmer and the INSTEON Controller together. Refer to your INSTEON Controller’s User’s
Guide for detailed instructions on how to properly install it and link it to KeypadLinc Dimmer. The
following will work for the most common INSTEON Controllers.

1. Select your INSTEON Controller from the list below and follow the method shown to put it into

Linking Mode.

A. SwitchLinc V2 Dimmer – Press and hold the Second KeypadLinc Dimmer’s Paddle

Top for 10 seconds, then release. To confirm that it is in Linking Mode, the
SwitchLinc Dimmer will flash the light that it is wired to once and begin blinking the
top LED in its LED Bar.

B. ControLinc

V2 Tabletop Controller – Choose the ON/OFF Button Pair you want

to use for controlling KeypadLinc Dimmer. Press and hold the ON Button of the pair
for 10 seconds. To confirm that it is in Linking Mode, ControLinc V2’s Status LED
will begin blinking.

C. Other KeypadLinc

V2 – Choose the button you want to use for controlling

KeypadLinc Dimmer. Press and hold the desired button for 10 seconds. To confirm
that it is in Linking Mode, KeypadLinc V2 will flash the light that it is wired to once
and begin blinking the button that you pushed.

D. Other INSTEON Controllers – See the INSTEON Controller’s User’s Guide.

2. Press and hold the On Button for 10 seconds on the KeypadLinc

Dimmer that is being controlled. To confirm linking, the
KeypadLinc Dimmer will blink its LED and flash the light that it is
wired to. Depending on the INSTEON Controller, you have about
4 minutes to perform this step before Linking Mode times out
automatically.

NOTE

When a KeypadLinc Dimmer secondary button is linked, its LED backlight will

toggle on and off to reflect the current state of the device or scene. This

functionality is not available for the primary on/off buttons of KeypadLinc Dimmer.
