4) Test by tapping controller button on and off.

SwitchLinc will respond appropriately.


Note: The link just created is one-way. See Make SwitchLinc an INSTEON Controller to add another link
to create a two-way link and keep the two products in synch.

Make SwitchLinc a Controller

Configure using home automation software (such as HouseLinc) or follow the steps below to control an
INSTEON device from SwitchLinc.

1)

Press and hold SwitchLinc set button until it beeps.

SwitchLinc LED will start blinking

.

2)

Adjust the responder(s) to the state you want when scene
is activated from SwitchLinc (e.g., 50%, 25% or even off).

3)

Press and hold responder Set button until it double-beeps
(or until its LED flashes).

SwitchLinc LED will stop blinking.

Notes:

-

The link just created is one-way. See Make SwitchLinc an INSTEON Responder to add another link
to create a two-way link and keep the two products in synch.

If you wish the SwitchLinc load to be off when the link is activated (such as for an “all-off” scene),
turn off the load in step 2.

Groups (Synchronizing Devices)

Devices in a group share all the same settings (e.g., on-level, ramp rate). This keeps all group members
synchronized. Every device in a group is both a controller of and responder to all the other devices. The
most common example of a group is a 3-way lighting circuit with 2 switches, such as switches at either
end of a hallway.

Configure using home automation software (such as HouseLinc) or follow the steps below to set up a 3-
way circuit with two switches. For simplicity, we will assume that the desired group level is on.

Example: Set up a 3-way circuit with two switches, A and B

1) Turn A and B on.
2) Press and hold A set button until it beeps (or LED blinks).

A’s LED will start blinking

green

.

3) Press and hold B set button until it double-beeps (or LED flashes).

B will double-beep.

A will double-beep and its LED will stop blinking.

4) Press and hold B set button until it beeps (or LED blinks).
