Using KeypadLinc Dimmers in Virtual Multi-Way Circuits 

In a 

virtual

 multi-way circuit, only one KeypadLinc Dimmer, called the 

KeypadLinc Primary

, actually 

controls the LOAD in the multi-way circuit.  Any additional KeypadLinc Dimmers, called 

KeypadLinc 

Secondaries

, are not connected to the LOAD, but only to the power line (via the LINE and NEUTRAL).  

All of the KeypadLinc Dimmers can communicate with one another using INSTEON networking on the 
power line.  After wiring in the KeypadLinc Dimmers, you create the virtual multi-way circuit by setting up 
all of the KeypadLinc Dimmers to control each other (see 

HOW TO SET UP KEYPADLINC DIMMER TO 

REMOTELY CONTROL AN INSTEON DEVICE

, below). 

The diagram below shows how you convert a wired-in three-way circuit into a virtual three-way circuit 
using two KeypadLinc Dimmers.  Step-by-step instructions for wiring in the KeypadLinc Dimmers are in 
the next section. 

 

Notice that one of the TRAVELER wires (number 1, the red one) is not used, so you will cap it off at both 
ends with a wire nut. 

The other TRAVELER (number 2, the black one) you will convert to a LINE wire.  In the junction box 
where the KeypadLinc Secondary is, connect TRAVELER 2 to the existing LINE and also to the 
KeypadLinc Secondary’s LINE wire.  In the other junction box at the other end, you will connect 
TRAVELER 2 to the KeypadLinc Primary’s LINE wire. 

The KeypadLinc Primary’s LOAD wire gets connected to the actual lights that are being controlled. 

The LOAD wire for any KeypadLinc Secondaries that you will be installing will not be connected to 
anything, so cap those LOAD wires off with a wire nut. 

All KeypadLinc Dimmers, whether they are Primaries or Secondaries, must be connected to NEUTRAL 
and to GROUND.  Note that the switches you are replacing will not normally have a connection to 
NEUTRAL.  If there is no NEUTRAL wire in the junction box, please consult an electrician or call 
Smarthome Tech Support, 800-SMARTHOME (800-762-7846).
