Start Linking

For all devices, with the exception of ControLinc, when new devices need to be added to
the ISY you must select this option and then click the linking button on the new device
(light, switch etc.) for as many devices as you desire. This performs the same action as
the Start Linking button on the tool bar. The Start Linking button will change and will
show an X sign. The new device/s should automatically show up on the ISY application.
This may take a few seconds. Please click the Cancel button on the Linking Dialog after
all your new devices have been linked to the controller and show up on the GUI. You can
then rename each device and change its various attributes. Please follow each device as to
the location of its linking button. The device should blink indicating it is in linking mode.
Please make sure you first select the Start Linking option from the ISY GUI and then
click the linking button on the device itself. Other wise the device will not be linked to
the controller.
For ControlLinc, click on the Link a ControLinc menu option and follow instructions on
the screen.

Once you select this option you will be presented with a new window. It will have a Key
icon at the top. By selecting the key you will be presented with the option of creating a
