Cautions and Warnings CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS Read and understand these instructions before installing and retain them for future reference. This product is intended for installation in accordance with the National Electric Code and local regulations in the United States or the Canadian Electrical Code and local regulations in Canada. Use indoors only. This product is not designed or approved for use on power lines other than single-phase voltages between 100V and 277V, 50/60Hz.
Installation Installation – Circuit with 1 Switch (a.k.a. 2way circuit) 1) At electrical panel, turn off circuit breaker(s) and/or remove fuse(s) feeding wall box. Verify that the power is off before continuing 2) Remove wallplate from the switch.
In Box 2 (Load box) 12) Connect SwitchLinc bare wire to bare ground wire or ground screw in wall box 13) Connect SwitchLinc white wire to neutral wire(s) in wall box (usually white) 14) Connect SwitchLinc red wire to load wire 15) Connect SwitchLinc black wire to same color traveler from Box 1 carrying Line (usually black) 16) Cap unused traveler wire 17) With LEDs on left, gently place SwitchLincs into their wall boxes and screw in place 18) Turn power back on SwitchLincs and connected load will turn on (o

Local Control Follow these instructions to control the connected light/load (as well as any responders) from the SwitchLinc paddle. Paddle Tap Top On Bottom Press and hold Double-tap On On Sends brighten to responders Sends fast-on to responders Off Off Sends dim to responders Sends fast-off to responders Off LEDs Top LED on Bottom LED on Setup SwitchLinc is fully configurable using home automation software (such as HouseLinc).
2) Tap SwitchLinc on (or off if desired for the link). Load will be on (or off). 3) Press and hold SwitchLinc Set button until it double-beeps. Controller LED will stop blinking. 11 Unit will double-beep. 4) Test by tapping controller button on and off. SwitchLinc will respond appropriately. Note: The link just created is one-way. See Make SwitchLinc an INSTEON Controller to add another link to create a two-way link and keep the two products in synch.
B LED will start blinking green. 5) Press and hold A set button until it double-beeps (or LED flashes). A will double-beep. B will double-beep and its LED will stop blinking. 6) Test the group by controlling the Load from A and then B. The load, A’s LED and B’s LED will all remain in synch. Scenes INSTEON scenes allow a controller to simultaneously activate multiple responders at individual preprogrammed levels.
Remove SwitchLinc as a Controller If you no longer want SwitchLinc to control another device (or are removing SwitchLinc from your INSTEON network), it is important that you remove the responder link from SwitchLinc. Configure using home automation software (such as HouseLinc) or follow the steps below for each responder. 1) Press and hold SwitchLinc Set button until beep. LED will start blinking green. 2) Press and hold SwitchLinc Set button until beep. LED will start blinking red.
Change LED Brightness Configure using home automation software (such as HouseLinc) or follow the steps below to change the brightness level of SwitchLinc’s LED. 1) Press and hold SwitchLinc Set button until it beeps. LED will start blinking green. 2) Press and hold Set button until it beeps again. SwitchLinc LED will start blinking red. 3) Press and hold Set button until it beeps a third time. SwitchLinc LED will stop blinking and turn off. SwitchLinc LED will illuminate at current LED brightness level.
1) Tap Set button 4 times quickly. SwitchLinc will start beeping once per second. LED will turn green. 2) Check the LED behavior of other dual-band devices. a. If the other dual-band device is blinking green, it is on the other phase. Device connects the phases to SwitchLinc. b. If the other dual-band device is blinking red, it is on the same phase. Device does not connect the phases to SwitchLinc. Relocate device if necessary (and where practical). c.
Change Paddle and LED Colors You can swap out the included white LEDs and/or front paddle and trim frame assembly with a colorchange kit before or after SwitchLinc is installed.

Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause Solution Make sure the circuit breaker is turned on. The LED bar on SwitchLinc is not turning on and connected load is not turning on. SwitchLinc is not getting power. The switch I'm replacing only has two wires. SwitchLinc requires a Neutral wire in order to operate. SwitchLinc unexpectedly turns on. Check junction box wires to ensure all connections are tight and no bare wires are exposed.
SwitchLinc is not receiving signals from X10 controllers. SwitchLinc and the controller are on opposite powerline phases. Install an Access Point to properly bridge the two powerline phases. The controller is plugged into a power strip. Powerline signals can't travel through power filters. Plugging the controller directly into a wall outlet works best. Other modules are loading down the signal. Move the other modules or the controller to another outlet.
Certification and Warranty Certification This product has been thoroughly tested by Intertek ETL, a nationally recognized independent third-party testing laboratory.
