Using SwitchLinc to Bridge Phases
SwitchLinc can help bridge the phases in your home like an Access Point, allowing RF-only devices (e.g., RemoteLinc) access to
power line-only devices (e.g., ApplianceLinc). For the best INSTEON network performance, it is recommended that you install at
least two dual-band products. Search for dual-band INSTEON products at http://www.smarthome.com/dualband.
Use the following procedure to test that the phases have been bridged.
1) Start Phase Bridging Detection Mode by tapping the SwitchLinc Set button 4 times quickly
SwitchLinc will begin beeping continuously once per second and the LED will be solid green
2) Check the LED behavior of your other dual-band devices. Verify at least one of your dual-band device’s LEDs responds as
follows:
Your other dual-band device LED will blink green, or be bright solid white or blue
3) If none of your dual-band devices exhibit the behavior in step 2, they are on the same power phase. Try:
• Following steps 1 and 2 with other dual-band devices to see if they are bridging the phases
• Moving your other dual-band devices to other locations until they exhibit the desired LED behavior
4) Tap the Set button on SwitchLinc to exit Phase Bridging Detection Mode
SwitchLinc will stop beeping
