6. Connect the KeypadLinc Secondary’s GROUND Wire.
Connect the bare copper GROUND wire to the other GROUND
wires in the junction box.
7. Install Additional KeypadLinc Secondaries. If you have a four-way or greater switching circuit, see
Special Treatment for Four- or More-Way Circuits at the end of this section.
8. Identify the Wires for the KeypadLinc Primary. The KeypadLinc Primary is the KeypadLinc
Dimmer that will actually control the LOAD. In the remaining junction box where you will install the
KeypadLinc Primary, find the wire that carries power from the switch to the lights. This wire, called
the LOAD wire, is commonly red.
In the same junction box, there will also be the two TRAVELER wires from the first box, often both in
the same cable sheath. Identify the one TRAVELER wire (black) that you connected the LINE wire to
in the first junction box.
If you’re not sure which is the TRAVELER wire connected to the LINE wire, you can use the same
method described earlier to find it. Turn on the power (taking the same precautions), and use a
voltmeter to find the wire with 120 Volts AC on it. This wire is the TRAVELER wire that you
connected to the LINE wire in the first junction box.
Make sure the power is turned off again before proceeding.
9. Connect the KeypadLinc Primary’s LINE Wire. Use a wire
nut to connect the TRAVELER wire, usually black, that you
identified as connected to the LINE wire to the KeypadLinc
Primary’s black LINE wire.
