CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
Read and understand these instructions before installing and retain them for future reference.
In-LineLinc is intended for installation in accordance with the National Electric Code and local regulations in the United States or the
Canadian Electrical Code and local regulations in Canada. Use indoors only. In-LineLinc is not designed nor approved for use on
power lines other than 120VAC-277VAC 60Hz. Attempting to use In-LineLinc on non-approved power lines may have hazardous
consequences.
• Use only indoors or in outdoor rated box
• Be sure that you have turned off the circuit breaker or removed the fuse for the circuit you are installing In-LineLinc in.
Installing In-LineLinc with the power on will expose you to dangerous voltages.
• Connect only copper or copper-clad wire to In-LineLinc
• In-LineLinc may feel warm during operation. The amount of heat generated is within approved limits and poses no
hazards. To minimize heat buildup, ensure that the area surrounding the rear of In-LineLinc is as clear of clutter as
possible.
• Each In-LineLinc is assigned a unique INSTEON ID, which is printed on the device’s label.
• To reduce the risk of overheating and possible damage to other equipment, use In-LineLinc to control no more than 20
Amps (1800 Watts of incandescent) at 110VAC-277VAC.
• You will need a flathead screwdriver, a philips head screwdriver and a voltage meter to install In-LineLinc
Identifying the Electrical Wires in your Home
To install In-LineLinc, you will need to identify the following four wires:
• LINE - usually black, may also be called HOT or LIVE, carries 110-277VAC electricity to the load
• NEUTRAL - usually white
• GROUND - bare copper wire or metal fixture (if grounded)
If you are having difficulties identifying wires, consult an electrician to help you.
IMPORTANT!
If you are not knowledgeable about, and comfortable with, electrical circuitry, you should have a qualified electrician install In-
LineLinc for you. If you have any questions, please consult an electrician or call: 800-762-7845
