LampLinc Owner’s Manual  

 

X10 PROGRAMMING OPTIONS 

LampLinc is X10 ready, meaning that it can respond to X10 commands from X10 controllers. However, to operate 
LampLinc in X10 mode, you must first set up an X10 address. As it ships from the factory or after a factory reset 
procedure, LampLinc will not have an X10 address set up.

 

Setting the X10 Primary Address 

1)  Set LampLinc to Linking Mode by pressing & holding the Set button for 3 seconds 

The LampLinc Status LED should begin blinking 
The load should flash once  

 

You will have 4 minutes to complete the next step before Linking Mode automatically times out. 

2)  Using an X10 controller, send the X10 address you want to assign and the ON command 

three times

 

For example, to assign the address A1, you would send “A1 ON A1 ON A1 ON.”  

3)  Once LampLinc has received the sequence, it should exit Linking Mode 

The LampLinc Status LED should flash twice and then turn on solid 
The load should flash twice

  

Removing the X10 Primary Address 

If you are no longer going to control LampLinc with an X10 address, it is very important that you Unlink it. Otherwise, 
LampLinc will still respond to X10 commands and may cause LampLinc to turn on by itself.  
1)  Set LampLinc to Linking Mode by pressing & holding the Set button for 3 seconds 

The LampLinc Status LED should begin blinking 
The load should flash once  

2)  Set LampLinc to Unlinking Mode by pressing & holding the Set button for 3 seconds  

The LampLinc Status LED should continue blinking 
The load should flash once 

 

You will have 4 minutes to complete the next step before Unlinking Mode automatically times out.  

3)  Using an X10 controller, send the X10 address you wish to remove and the ON command 

three times

 

For example, to remove the address A1, you would send “A1 ON A1 ON A1 ON”.  

4)  Once LampLinc has received the sequence, it should exit Linking Mode  

The LampLinc Status LED should flash twice and then turn on solid 
The load should flash twice

   

Setting the X10 On-Level and X10 Ramp Rate for the X10 Primary Address 

When an X10 controller sends an X10 ON or X10 OFF command to LampLinc’s Primary Address, the local On-Level 
and Ramp Rate apply. In other words, LampLinc should act the same way as it would if you manually tapped the 
switch. 
See 

Setting the On-Level 

or 

Setting the Ramp Rate 

for instructions on setting up the local On-Level and Ramp Rate  

NOTE: If you want an X10 On-Level or Ramp Rate other than the local values, you can set up one or more X10 
scene addresses as described in 

Remotely Setting the On-Level for an X10 Scene Address 

and 

Remotely Setting the 

Ramp Rate for the X10 Scene Address. 

 

Enabling/Disabling X10 Resume Dim 

If X10 Resume Dim is enabled, LampLinc will remember the last brightness level to which it was set. Then, when an 
X10 ON command is received from an X10 controller, the load will go to the remembered brightness, rather than to 
the X10 On-Level. 
To enable X10 Resume Dim, set up a local On-Level of off (or zero). To disable X10 Resume Dime, set up a local 
On-Level of anything but off. See 

Setting the On-Level 

for instructions on setting up the local On-Level.
