Linking RemoteLinc to an INSTEON Responder
To use RemoteLinc as an INSTEON Controller, follow these steps to Link RemoteLinc and an INSTEON
Responder (the device you wish to control with RemoteLinc) together. Refer to the Responder’s Owner’s
Manual for detailed instructions on how to properly install and Link it to RemoteLinc.
The following will work for the most common INSTEON devices:
1) At the Responder, set it to the state you wish to be activated from RemoteLinc (turn it on if you wish it to be
on, or off if you wish it to be off when RemoteLinc activates the scene, set On-Levels, etc.)
• If the Responder is a multi-scene device (e.g., KeypadLinc), tap the Scene button you wish to
control until its LED illuminates
2) Choose the On/Off button pair you want to use to control your Responder.
There are six On/Off button pairs, labeled Scene A through Scene F. You can Link multiple Responders to
a single On/Off button pair.
3) Set RemoteLinc to Linking Mode by pressing & holding the On button of the pair until it beeps(10 seconds)
The RemoteLinc Status LED should begin blinking
You will have 4 minutes to complete the next step before Linking Mode automatically times out.
4) Press & hold the Responder's Set button for 3 seconds
RemoteLinc should beep and its Status LED should stop blinking and turn off
5) Confirm that Linking was successful by tapping the On/Off buttons you just Linked to on RemoteLinc
The Responder should respond appropriately
6) If you wish to Link multiple Responders to the same RemoteLinc, either repeat steps 1-4 with each
Responder or see Multi-Linking and Multi-Unlinking
Unlinking an INSTEON Responder from RemoteLinc
If you are no longer going to use an INSTEON Responder that has previously been Linked to RemoteLinc, it is
very important that you Unlink it. Otherwise, RemoteLinc will retry any commands repetitively, thus slowing
down the system.
The following will work on the most common INSTEON devices:
1) If the Responder is a multi-scene device, tap the Scene button you wish to remove control from until its
LED illuminates
2) Set RemoteLinc to Linking Mode by pressing & holding the On button of the pair you wish to Unlink until it
beeps (10 seconds)
The RemoteLinc Status LED should begin blinking
3) Set RemoteLinc to Unlinking Mode by pressing & holding the same On button until it beeps (10 seconds)
The RemoteLinc Status LED should continue blinking
You will have 4 minutes to complete the next step before Unlinking Mode automatically times out.
4) Press & hold the Responder’s Set button for 3 seconds
RemoteLinc should beep and its Status LED should stop blinking and turn off
5) Confirm that Unlinking was successful by tapping the On/Off buttons you just Unlinked from on the
RemoteLinc
The Responder should no longer respond
BE CAREFUL
Any accidental button presses will exit Linking Mode early.
