TriggerLinc Owner’s Manual ABOUT TRIGGERLINC TriggerLinc can wirelessly control lights or appliances throughout your home. Program any INSTEON device to react when the magnetic contact is broken and re-established on TriggerLinc. Useful for doors, windows, drawers, cabinets, or anything else that opens. You can optionally connect an external contact closure sensor of any type (e.g., hidden contacts or doorbell button).
Reliable, because every INSTEON device works as a network repeater, ensuring your commands will not be lost. Affordable, because INSTEON can be integrated into any number of devices easily and at a very low cost. An INSTEON home grows in value with each added INSTEON device, making life more convenient, safe, and fun.
Jumper When the jumper is installed (default), TriggerLinc will send an INSTEON ON command when it opens and an OFF command when it closes. When the jumper is uninstalled (as in Multi- Scene Mode), TriggerLinc will activate Scene 1 when it opens and activate Scene 2 when it closes.
Mount the TriggerLinc case to the door/window trim. If you plan to mount the unit with screws, remove the battery to mount and then reinstall the battery. If you plan to Link Responders, see Linking TriggerLinc to an INSTEON Responder and then replace the battery cover.

Controller. INSTEON scenes are very easy to set up – just Link more than one Responder to the same On/Off or Scene button on a Controller. Then, when you tap any of the Linked buttons on the Controller, all of the INSTEON devices Linked in the scene will respond as a group.
Resetting TriggerLinc to its Factory Default Settings The factory reset procedure can be used to clear the TriggerLinc memory of all INSTEON Links, etc. 1) If you are using TriggerLinc to control any Responders, Unlink them from TriggerLinc. See Unlinking an INSTEON Responder from TriggerLinc.
It is possible that some audio-video devices, computers, power strips, or other electrical equipment may attenuate INSTEON signals on the power line. You can temporarily unplug suspected devices to test whether the INSTEON signal improves. If it does, then you can plug in filters that will permanently fix the problem.
