Using In-LineLinc Dimmer Dual-Band as a Phase Bridge
In-LineLinc Dimmer Dual-Band automatically bridges the electrical phases in your home to allow
powerline-only INSTEON devices to communicate with RF-only INSTEON devices. If you are relying on
In-LineLinc Dimmer Dual-Band to bridge the building’s electrical phases, use the following procedure to
activate phase bridging detection mode:
1) Start phase bridging detection mode by tapping In-LineLinc Dimmer Dual-Band’s Set button four
times quickly.
In-LineLinc Dimmer Dual-Band will begin beeping and setup LED will be solid green.
2) Check the LED behavior of the “other” dual-band devices.
a) If it is blinking green, it is within range and not on the same electrical phase. Go to step 3.
b) If it is not blinking green, try moving the device, check other devices or begin the test from a
different device.
3) Tap In-LineLinc Dimmer Dual-Band’s Set Button.
In-LineLinc Dimmer Dual-Band stops beeping and LED returns to previous state.
Other devices’ LEDs will stop blinking in a few seconds.
