INSTEON-compatible RemoteLinc User’s Guide Page 3 of 18 ABOUT REMOTELINC Congratulations on purchasing the INSTEON™ RemoteLinc™ Handheld Controller.  RemoteLinc allows you to use the power of INSTEON to control your home with the convenience of a handheld wireless controller.                   What is INSTEON? INSTEON is a simple, reliable, and affordable breakthrough in home control.  Simple, because Plug-n-Tap™ setup is a breeze, and there are no wires to add – INSTEON uses existing powerline wiring as well as radio-frequency for communication.  And reliable, because every INSTEON device is a two-way repeater.    An INSTEON home grows in value with every INSTEON device you add, making life more convenient, safe and fun. Key RemoteLinc Features •  Six individual on/off buttons, plus dedicated DIM, BRIGHT, ALL ON and ALL OFF buttons. •  Setup is easy – install four AAA batteries (included), link RemoteLinc buttons to devices with simple button taps, and you’re up and running. •  Shows command transmission activity with status LED •  Stores setup state in memory, even with batteries removed. •  Smart circuitry detects abnormally long button presses (like those ocurring when remote falls between couch cushions) and puts RemoteLinc into sleep mode, preserving battery life. •  Warranted for two years 6 ON/OFF Buttons Customizable Label Insert Status LED Simultaneously control all linked devices Dedicated DIM/BRIGHT buttons
INSTEON-compatible RemoteLinc User’s Guide Page 4 of 18 HOW TO INSTALL REMOTELINC  RemoteLinc Installation •  Remove battery compartment door from rear of RemoteLinc.  Observe polarity markings, and install four AAA batteies accordingly.  Replace battery compartment door. •  Use alkaline batteries, or high quality rechargeable batteries.  A fully charged set of alkaline batteries will provide approximately 1500-2000 functional button presses under normal circumstances.  Proper installation of at least two INSTEON™ AccessPoints (#2443) is required prior to installing and using RemoteLinc.
INSTEON-compatible RemoteLinc User’s Guide Page 5 of 18 HOW TO SET UP REMOTELINC Linking RemoteLinc to an INSTEON Device To control an INSTEON Device using RemoteLinc, follow these steps to link RemoteLinc and the INSTEON Device together.  Refer to your INSTEON Device’s User’s Guide for detailed instructions on how to properly install it and link it to RemoteLinc.  The following will work for the most common INSTEON Devices. 1.  Choose the ON/OFF Button on RemoteLinc that you want to use for controlling your INSTEON Device.  There are 6 ON/OFF Button Pairs, labeled Channel 1 through Channel 6.  You can link multiple INSTEON Devices to a single ON/OFF Button. 2.  Set RemoteLinc to Linking Mode by pressing and holding the ON side of the button for 10 seconds until the Status LED begins blinking.      3.  Select your INSTEON Device from the list below and follow the linking method for that Device.  You have about 4 minutes to perform this step before RemoteLinc’s Linking Mode times out automatically. A.  LampLinc™ V2 Dimmer – Press and hold the SET Button on the side of LampLinc V2 Dimmer for 3 seconds, then release.  To confirm linking, LampLinc V2 Dimmer will blink its Status LED and also the light that it is controlling.  B.  ApplianceLinc™ V2 – Press and hold the SET Button on the side of ApplianceLinc V2 for 3 seconds, then release.  To confirm linking, ApplianceLinc V2 will blink its Status LED.  C.  SwitchLinc™ V2 Dimmer – Press and hold SwitchLinc V2 Dimmer’s Paddle Top for 10 seconds, then release.  To confirm linking, SwitchLinc V2 Dimmer will blink the top LED in its LED Bar and also the light that it is wired to.  D.

Other INSTEON Devices – See the INSTEON Device’s User’s Guide.   4.  When your INSTEON Device is successfully linked, RemoteLinc will beep, and its Status LED will stop blinking. 5.  Test that your INSTEON Device is working as expected by pressing the ON and OFF Buttons that you linked to.
INSTEON-compatible RemoteLinc User’s Guide Page 6 of 18 Unlinking One INSTEON Device from RemoteLinc If you are no longer going to use an INSTEON Device that has previously been linked to RemoteLinc, it is very important that you unlink it, otherwise the INSTEON network will retry any commands intended for the unused INSTEON Device, thus slowing down your system. 1.  Using the ON/OFF Button that you already linked your INSTEON Device to, set RemoteLinc to Unlinking Mode by pressing and holding the ON side of the button for 10 seconds until the Status LED begins blinking, then release the button. 2.  Immediately press the same ON button again for 10 seconds. 3.  Follow the same method given above that you used to link your INSTEON Device to unlink it.  On most INSTEON Devices, you just push a SET Button for 3 seconds. 4.  When your INSTEON device is successfully unlinked, RemoteLinc will beep, and its Status LED will stop blinking Creating an INSTEON Scene INSTEON Scenes let you activate dramatic lighting moods with the press of just one button.  INSTEON Scenes are very easy to set up – just link more than one INSTEON Device to an ON/OFF Button on RemoteLinc.  Then, when you press either the ON or the OFF Button on RemoteLinc, all of the INSTEON Devices linked in the scene will respond as a group.  You can link multiple INSTEON Devices to multiple of INSTEON Controllers. To add an additional INSTEON Device to a scene controlled by an ON/OFF Button on RemoteLinc, simply follow the same procedure as above in Linking RemoteLinc to an INSTEON Device.  To remove an INSTEON Device from a scene, see Unlinking One INSTEON Device from RemoteLinc. TIP  You can avoid having to hold RemoteLinc’s ON Button down for 10 seconds for each INSTEON Device in a scene by placing RemoteLinc in Scene Setup Mode, also called Multilink Mode. 1.  Set the RemoteLinc to Scene Setup Mode for the ON/OFF Button Pair you want to use for controlling the scene by pressing and holding the desired ON Button for 10 seconds, then tapping the same ON Button again.  RemoteLinc’s Status LED will blink. 2.  Follow the linking method given above for the INSTEON Device you want to include in the scene.  On most INSTEON Devices, you just push a SET Button for 3 seconds.  RemoteLinc will beep to confirm linking, and its Status LED will continue to blink slowly. 3.  On some INSTEON Devices, you may be able to set up additional features, such as On-Levels or Fade Rates at this time. 4.  Continue Steps 2 and 3 for any additional INSTEON Devices you want to link to the scene. 5.  When you are finished linking INSTEON Devices to the desired ON/OFF Button, complete Scene Setup by pressing the ON Button.  RemoteLinc’s Status LED will stop blinking and remain steadily on.  You have about 4 minutes of inactivity before RemoteLinc’s Scene Setup Mode times out automatically.
INSTEON-compatible RemoteLinc User’s Guide Page 7 of 18 ADVANCED FEATURES OF REMOTELINC Resetting One ON/OFF Button to Its Factory Default Settings If you want to remove all INSTEON links from a single ON/OFF Button Pair, or if you cannot unlink a previously-linked INSTEON Device that has been lost or broken, follow this procedure. 1.  Remove a single battery from RemoteLinc for at least 10 seconds. 2.  While holding down the OFF side of the ON/OFF Button that you want to reset, reinsert the battery into RemoteLinc (ensure battery is properly oriented). RemoteLinc will beep and its Status LED will illuminate steadily.  Wait 3 seconds after reinserting the battery, and then release the OFF button. 3.  The ON/OFF Button will now have no INSTEON Devices linked to it.  Resetting RemoteLinc to Its Factory Default Settings The factory reset procedure can be used to clear the RemoteLinc’s memory and restore its factory default settings.  This procedure will clear the unit of all INSTEON Links. 1.  Remove a single battery from RemoteLinc for at least 10 seconds. 2. While holding down the BRIGHT Button, reinsert the battery into RemoteLinc (ensure battery is properly oriented).  RemoteLinc will beep and its Status LED will blink as you reinsert the battery, then its Status LED will illuminate brightly. 3.

INSTEON-compatible RemoteLinc User’s Guide Page 13 of 18 ABOUT INSTEON Understanding Why an INSTEON Network Is Reliable INSTEON messages travel throughout the home via Powerline Carrier (PLC) signals on the existing house wiring, and also via wireless Radio Frequency (RF).  As the messages make their way to INSTEON devices being controlled, they are picked up and retransmitted by all other INSTEON devices along the way.  This method of communicating, called a mesh network, is very reliable because each additional INSTEON device helps to support the overall network. To further ensure reliability, every INSTEON device confirms that it has received a command.  If an INSTEON Controller does not receive this confirmation, it will automatically retransmit the command up to five times. Further Enhancing Reliability As signals travel via the powerline or RF throughout the home, they naturally become weaker the farther they travel.  The best way to overcome signals getting weaker is to increase the coverage of the mesh network by introducing more INSTEON devices. It is possible that some audio-video products, computers, power strips or other electrical equipment may attenuate INSTEON signals on the powerline.  You can temporarily unplug suspected devices to test whether the INSTEON signal improves.  If it does, then you can plug in filters available from Smarthome that will permanently fix the problem. Using SmartLab’s AccessPoint to Upgrade Your INSTEON Network AccessPoints are ideal for improving signal strength and network coverage throughout your home.  In addition, two AccessPoints provide a wireless path for INSTEON signals to travel between the two separate electrical circuits, called powerline phases, found in most homes.  Without a reliable method for coupling opposite powerline phases, some parts of your home may receive INSTEON signals intermittently.  With at least one AccessPoint plugged into one of the powerline phases, and at least one more plugged into the opposite powerline phase, INSTEON powerline signals will be strong everywhere in your home.
INSTEON-compatible RemoteLinc User’s Guide Page 14 of 18  TROUBLESHOOTING Problem  Possible Cause  Solution Batteries are missing or depleted.  Install 4 fresh AAA bateries into RemoteLinc The Status LED on my RemoteLinc is not turning on at all.  User previously disabled Status LED See section Turning the Status LED On and Off for instructions on re-enabling Status LED. My RemoteLinc will not go into Linking or Unlinking Mode. You didn’t hold the ON Button down long enough. Hold the ON Button down for at least 10 seconds.  To enter Unlinking Mode, repeat the same process (a total of two sequential presses of the ON button for 10 seconds each press). If the above doesn’t work, perform a Factory Reset. (See Resetting RemoteLinc to Its Factory Default Settings)    The Status LED is still flashing after linking an INSTEON device. You may be in Scene Setup (multilink) mode. Tap the ON Button you are linking to in order to end Scene Setup mode. The device may be on the phase other than the node communicating with RemoteLinc. Make sure two AccessPoints are properly installed to bridge the two powerline phases. My RemoteLinc is not controlling linked INSTEON devices.  RemoteLinc may be out of wireless range Try using RemoteLinc from another location, and install additional AccessPoints in trouble locations Add new INSTEON devices or move around existing INSTEON devices.  All INSTEON devices act as INSTEON Network repeaters. An INSTEON device is not linking or responding to RemoteLinc. The INSTEON signal may be too weak.  Make sure you are not experiencing interference with older X10 BoosterLinc technology.  Upgrade to INSTEON BoosterLincs. Remove batteries from RemoteLinc for 10 seconds and reinstall. Install a fresh set of batteries RemoteLinc is locked up.  Fluctuating battery current may have glitched it. If the above doesn’t work, perform a Factory Reset. (See Resetting RemoteLinc to Its Factory Default Settings) If the INSTEON Device is available, unlink it from RemoteLinc by following the directions in the section Unlinking One INSTEON Device from RemoteLinc. If the INSTEON Device is not available or you are unsure which INSTEON Device RemoteLinc is looking for, unlink all INSTEON Devices from the ON/OFF Button by following the directions in the section Resetting One ON/OFF Button to Its Factory Default Settings. My RemoteLinc’s Status LED keeps blinking whenever I press a button, and it takes a long time for my INSTEON Devices to respond. RemoteLinc may be waiting for a response from a lost or broken INSTEON Device. Reset RemoteLinc by following the directions in the section Resetting RemoteLinc to Its Factory Default Settings. My INSTEON Devices don’t always respond to my RemoteLinc. The RemoteLinc may have been reset without first unlinking INSTEON Devices from it. Re-link your INSTEON Devices to RemoteLinc. The beeper on my RemoteLinc doesn’t work. The beeper may have been turned off. Follow the directions in the section Turning the Audio Beeper On and Off.
INSTEON-compatible RemoteLinc User’s Guide Page 15 of 18 Problem  Possible Cause  Solution All of my INSTEON Devices do not respond to RemoteLinc’s ALL ON or ALL OFF Buttons. The ALL ON and ALL OFF Buttons only control INSTEON devices already linked to RemoteLinc. Link INSTEON Devices you want to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF to RemoteLinc. All of my INSTEON Devices do not respond to RemoteLinc’s BRIGHT or DIM Buttons. The BRIGHT and DIM Buttons only control INSTEON devices linked to the last ON/OFF Button you pushed on RemoteLinc. Push the ON or OFF Button for the scene you want to control, then use the BRIGHT and DIM Buttons.
