ABOUT SWITCHLINC DIMMER
Congratulations on purchasing the INSTEON
®
SwitchLinc
™
Dimmer 1000W. With its elegant look,
smooth touch, and stylish LED Bar, you can not only control the lights that you wire it to, but you can add
remote control to all kinds of other INSTEON and X10 devices in your home to match your lifestyle.
Besides controlling other devices, SwitchLinc Dimmer can itself be remotely operated from other
INSTEON or X10 Controllers, including other SwitchLinc Dimmers.
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. Reliable, because every INSTEON device is a two-way repeater.
And affordable, not just because of low cost, but because INSTEON also works with legacy X10 devices.
An INSTEON home grows in value with every INSTEON device you add, making life more convenient,
safe and fun.
