INSTEON ApplianceLinc V2 User’s Guide Installing ApplianceLinc 1. For best INSTEON Network performance, be sure you have properly installed at least two SignaLinc RF Signal Enhancers. 2. Plug ApplianceLinc into an unswitched wall receptacle. The white Status LED on the side will illuminate steadily.
HOW TO SET UP APPLIANCELINC Linking ApplianceLinc to an INSTEON Controller 1. Select your INSTEON Controller from the list below and follow the method shown to put it into Linking Mode. A. SwitchLinc™ V2 – Press and hold SwitchLinc V2 ’s Paddle Top for 10 seconds, then release.
Unlinking ApplianceLinc from an INSTEON Controller If you are no longer going to use an ApplianceLinc that has previously been linked to an INSTEON Controller, it is very important that you unlink it, otherwise the controller will retry any commands intended for the unused module, thus slowing down your system.
INSTEON Scenes let you activate dramatic lighting moods with the press of just one button. INSTEON Scenes are very easy to set up – just link more than one INSTEON module to an ON/OFF Button Pair on an INSTEON Controller. Then, when you press either the ON or the OFF Button on the INSTEON Controller, all of the INSTEON modules linked in the scene will respond as a group.
This procedure will clear the unit of all INSTEON Links, and any programmed X10 Primary Address, or X10 Scene Addresses. 1. Before resetting an ApplianceLinc that has been linked to an INSTEON Controller, be sure to unlink it from the Controller first. See Unlinking ApplianceLinc from an INSTEON Controller, above.
ApplianceLinc by using the switch on the device itself, without sending a command from an X10 or INSTEON Controller. By default, Local Control is enabled. You can disable Local Control by setting the X10 Primary Address using an X10 OFF command in Step 2 above. Remember that if the switch on the device itself is turned off, ApplianceLinc will not be able to control the device.
INSTEON ApplianceLinc V2 User’s Guide ADVANCED X10 PROGRAMMING OPTIONS You can remotely set up X10 Scene Addresses using an X10 Controller capable of sending an X10 address (house code and unit code) without sending X10 ON or OFF commands. The following procedures will not work with a transmitter that sends the X10 address and an X10 command together.
INSTEON device helps to support the overall network. To further ensure reliability, every INSTEON device confirms that it has received a command. If an INSTEON Controller does not receive this confirmation, it will automatically retransmit the command up to five times.
INSTEON’s Effect on X10 If your existing X10 devices seem to be working less reliably after installing INSTEON devices, remember that INSTEON devices can absorb X10 signals just as X10 devices do, and that INSTEON devices do not repeat X10 signals.
Other modules are loading Move ApplianceLinc, the other modules, or the down the signal. Controller to another outlet. Add new INSTEON devices or move around existing INSTEON devices. All INSTEON devices act as INSTEON Network repeaters. My ApplianceLinc is not...
