INSTEON LED Bulb Device Overview INSTEON ID Leave Your Fixture On If your switch or fixture is OFF, communication with the LED Bulb is lost. Do Not Connect to a Dimmer INSTEON LED Bulb dims using INSTEON commands. X Linking Your LED Bulb does not have a set button. To link manually, unscrew the LED Bulb for a moment and reinsert. ON ? If your fixture is controlled by a wall switch, consider wiring as always-on.
INSTEON Links INSTEON devices can stand alone and function as a local switch or dimmer, but their real power comes when they are connected together to form a control system. Most INSTEON devices can control one another and be the recipient of control. The process of associating multiple INSTEON devices to one another is called linking.
Understanding Linking Links are One-Way When linking INSTEON devices, the links that are created are one-way. Links Remember a Device’s State The current state of the controlled device is stored in the link: on, off or dimmed. NEW NEW 75% ® A B Switch A will turn Switch B on and off but Switch B cannot turn Switch A on or off. X Controllers INSTEON devices that can turn other devices on or off are called controllers.
Understanding Linking Controller-Only Some devices, like sensors, can only control other devices. Responder-Only Some devices cannot control other devices; these devices only receive INSTEON commands. NEW NEW X X ® Motion Sensor Dimmer Switch The Motion Sensor will turn on the Switch but the switch cannot control the Motion X Sensor. Grouping Devices You may want to group together two devices, for example, in a virtual-three way configuration. For INSTEON, this is called cross linking.

Software-Only Features Most INSTEON devices contain features that can only be enabled, disabled or modified using INSTEON control software such as HouseLinc and an INSTEON PowerLine Modem.
Software-Only Features Ramp Rate Customize the speed at which the LED Bulb fades on or off. Default is 0.5 seconds, maximum duration of 8 minutes. Instant Disable Linking on Power-up Prevents LED Bulb from entering linking mode each time power is disconnected and reapplied. Default is off. LINKING 0.
Always-On Wiring Because LED Bulb needs constant power, if you have a light fixture that is controlled by a wall switch, you might consider wiring that wall switch as “Always-On” so that flipping the switch will not disconnect LED Bulb from power. Replacing the wall switch with an INSTEON Switch will provide full control for any INSTEON device in your home.
Always-On Wiring 1 Turn off power to your switch at the electrical service panel. 2 Remove the old switch and disconnect the wires. If your box lacks neutral wires, stop and contact support. WIKI ON ON ON ON 1 OFF ON ON or 2 ! Neutral Wire ON ON ON Circuit Breakers Fuse Panel ½” 12mm 3 Connect the Dimmer Switch wires to the identified wires in the junction box. The red load wire is not used and, instead, capped.
Always-On Wiring 4 Mount the Dimmer Switch into the junction box with the LED bar on the left and turn power on to the switch at the circuit breaker panel. 5 Test your switch by tapping the paddle to turn On and Off. Your LED Bulb will not change but the status lights on the switch will. 6 To link your switch to the LED Bulb, press and hold the set button until the device beeps. 7 Unscrew your LED Bulb for a moment and reinsert.

Troubleshooting LED Bulb won’t link to other INSTEON Devices Your LED Bulb may be out of range of other INSTEON Devices or a large appliance may be generating electrical noise, disrupting the INSTEON signal. Try this: • Check to make sure your LED Bulb is not connected to a dimmer. If so, remove the dimmer or relocate LED Bulb to a non-dimming fixture. • Try relocating your LED Bulb to see if linking can be accomplished.
