Local Control
Follow these instructions to control the connected light/load (as well as responders, if any) from the dimmer paddle.
Setup Local Settings
Local On-Level
The local on-level is the brightness that the light physically wired to SwitchLinc will come on at when turned on at
the SwitchLinc paddle. The default is 100% brightness. Local on-level can be set to any one of 32 fixed brightness
levels (3% to 100%) or “resume bright” (brightness prior to last being turned off).
1) Adjust the light to the desired brightness
2) Tap the Set button once
SwitchLinc will (Beep)
3) Test by pressing On/Off
Local Ramp Rate
The local ramp rate is the time it takes for the lamp to brighten from off to 100% brightness when controlled at the
paddle. It is adjustable from instant to 8 minutes (with software) and instant to 9 seconds (using Set button). Default
ramp rate is 0.5 seconds.
Setting Ramp Rate is done using brightness level as an indicator for how fast SwitchLinc should ramp.
a. Use the Up / Down paddle on SwitchLinc to set brightness
 Set Brighter level for a faster Ramp Rate
o 100% corresponds to a 0.1-second Ramp Rate (fast Ramp Rate)
 Set Dimmer for a slower Ramp Rate
o Full-off corresponds to a 9-second Ramp Rate (slow Ramp Rate)
1) Adjust the connected light(s) to brightness corresponding to desired Ramp Rate
2) Double-tap Set button on your SwitchLinc
SwitchLinc will (Beep)
3) Test Ramp Rate settings by tapping On/Off paddle on your SwitchLinc or Controller
Connected light(s) will ramp up and down at the new rate
4) Start again if the ramp rate is not as desired or, if your double tap was not fast enough you may have
accidentally changed the Local On-Level instead of the Local Ramp Rate
Note:
 Software allows you to set on-levels and Ramp Rates exactly as desired and consistently around the
house
 Ramp Rates can be extended up to 8 minutes via home automation software
