Problem Possible
Cause
Solution
TimerLinc can turn off
a Responder but
nothing happens when
I send an ON
command from
TimerLinc.
The Responder may be
Linked at its off state.
Re-Link the Responder to TimerLinc, while the
Responder’s load is on. See the Responder’s
Owner’s Manual for more detailed Linking
instructions.
The Controller can
turn off TimerLinc but
TimerLinc does not
turn on when I send
an ON command from
the Controller.
TimerLinc may be Linked
at its off state.
Re-Link TimerLinc to the Controller, while the load
is on. See
Linking an INSTEON Controller to
TimerLinc.
Unplug TimerLinc for 10 seconds and then
reinstall.
TimerLinc is locked
up.
A surge or excessive
noise on the power line
may have glitched it.
If the above doesn’t work, perform a factory reset.
See
Resetting TimerLinc to its Factory Default
Settings.
The load is not being
controlled by
TimerLinc.
The load may not be
getting power.
Make sure the load’s built-in switch is in the on
position.
The LEDs controlled
by TimerLinc do not
turn off completely
when I send an OFF
command.
You might be using a low-
wattage LED. Since LEDs
don’t take a lot of power,
the trickle-charge that runs
through TimerLinc may be
enough to power the load.
Add to the load with more LEDs or higher wattage
bulbs – generally higher than a 5 Watt load.
