interference with older X10 BoosterLinc
technology. Upgrade to INSTEON-compatible
BoosterLinc modules (#4827).
In-LineLinc doesn't
always respond to an
INSTEON controller.
The INSTEON controller may
have been reset without first
unlinking In-LineLinc from it.
Relink In-LineLinc to the INSTEON controller.
See Adding In-LineLinc Relay as an INSTEON
Responder.
The light turned on by
itself.
Another controller, a timer or
stray X10 signals triggered
In-
LineLinc
.
Install a powerline signal blocker in your home
to keep X10 signals from neighboring homes
from interfering. Consider not using In-LineLinc
in X10 mode.
If the above doesn't work, perform a factory
reset. See Factory Reset.
In-LineLinc turns on, but
not off, using another
controller.
The load is p
roducing
electrical noise that is
interfering with the reception
of powerline signal.
Install a powerline noise filter (such as
FilterLinc) between the load and In-LineLinc.
Install additional INSTEON devices to boost
the INSTEON signal.
Increase the X10 signal strength with an
INSTEON-compatible X10 booster to
overcome the power line noise.
Remove the X10 address from the button on
your INSTEON controller so it doesn’t send
both INSTEON and X10 commands.
In-LineLinc doesn't
respond to X10 address
A1 when I first set it up.
Unlike previous X10
-only
products,
In-LineLinc
does not
have an X10 address set up at
th
e factory.
Set up an X10 address. See Adding an X10
Address.
The load is buzzing
when on or dim.
The dimming component
inside
In-LineLinc "chops" the
powerline sine wave to reduce
the power.
The buld filaments are vibrating. Use rough-
service, 130V or appliance-grade bulbs to
reduce the noise.
Run In-LineLinc in “full-on” mode or switch to a
non-dimming In-LineLinc On/Off Relay.
In-LineLinc is locked up.
A surge or excessive noise on
the powerline may have
glitched it.
Pull the Set button on In-LineLinc all the way
out to create an air gap, wait 10 seconds, then
push it back in until it’s flush with the trim frame
(don't push it all the way in).
If the above doesn't work, perform a factory
reset. See Factory Reset.
In-LineLinc is getting
warm to the touch.
It is normal for wall dimmers to
feel warm, but not hot.
In-LineLinc Dimmer will dissipate about 1W per
100W controlled. Using metal junction boxes,
removing insulation around the box or
controlling a smaller load can lessen the heat.
In-LineLinc can turn off
my responder, but
nothing happens when I
send an ON command
from In-LineLinc.
Your responder may be linked
at its off state.
Relink your responder to In-LineLinc, while the
responding device is on.
My controller can turn off
In-LineLinc, but In-
LineLinc does not turn
on when I send an ON
command from my
In
-LineLinc may be linked at
its off state.
Relink In-LineLinc to your controller, while the
load is on.
