ApplianceLinc Owner’s Manual WHAT IS INSTEON? Since its inception in 2005, INSTEON has become a best-selling home-control networking technology, offering more reliability and flexibility than any other home management system on the market. INSTEON systems are simple, reliable, and affordable. Simple, because each device takes mere minutes to install. Reliable, because every INSTEON device works as a network repeater, ensuring your commands will not be lost.
ApplianceLinc Owner’s Manual • Don’t stack INSTEON home automation devices together by plugging them into one another. Stacked modules may overheat and stop functioning.
ApplianceLinc Owner’s Manual CONTROLLING APPLIANCELINC FROM AN INSTEON CONTROLLER Linking an INSTEON Controller to ApplianceLinc To use ApplianceLinc as an INSTEON Responder, follow these steps to Link ApplianceLinc and a Controller together. Refer to the Controller’s Owner’s Manual for detailed instructions on how to properly install and Link it to ApplianceLinc.
ApplianceLinc Owner’s Manual ADVANCED FEATURES Enabling/Disabling Load Sensing Load Sensing allows you to manually turn on the load plugged into ApplianceLinc by using the switch on the load itself, without sending a command from an INSTEON or X10 controller. When the load is in the off state (with Load Sensing enabled), ApplianceLinc will “sense” that you are trying to turn it on with its built-in switch. When ApplianceLinc senses this, it will turn on the load automatically.
ApplianceLinc Owner’s Manual X10 PROGRAMMING OPTIONS ApplianceLinc is X10 ready, meaning that it can respond to X10 commands from X10 controllers. However, to operate ApplianceLinc in X10 mode, you must first set up an X10 Primary Address. As it ships from the factory or after a factory reset procedure, ApplianceLinc will not have an X10 Primary Address set up.
ApplianceLinc Owner’s Manual ADVANCED X10 PROGRAMMING OPTIONS ApplianceLinc can be a member of up to 255 X10 scenes. An X10 scene address is just another X10 address like the X10 Primary Address. When an X10 ON command is sent to an X10 scene address, every X10 device with that address will turn on to its independent On-Level at its independent Ramp Rate (if a dimmable device).
ApplianceLinc Owner’s Manual ABOUT INSTEON Using Dual-Band INSTEON Devices to Upgrade Your Network What are phases? The majority of single-family homes in North America have two phases (or “legs”) of 110 Volts coming into their electricity panels. From the panel, they are distributed throughout the home, providing power to outlets and wall switches. These phases come together in some parts of the home to provide 220 Volts of power to large appliances, such as an electric oven or pool pump.
ApplianceLinc Owner’s Manual TROUBLESHOOTING Problem The Status LED on ApplianceLinc is not turning on and won’t control the load. ApplianceLinc won’t Link or work with a Controller. ApplianceLinc is taking a long time to respond to a Controller. Possible Cause Solution ApplianceLinc may not be getting power. Make sure ApplianceLinc is not plugged into a switched outlet that is turned off. The Controller might have been reset without Unlinking ApplianceLinc from it.
