Linking KeypadLinc Schedule Timer to an INSTEON Responder
To use KeypadLinc as an INSTEON Controller, follow these steps to Link KeypadLinc and an INSTEON
Responder (the device you wish to control with KeypadLinc) together. Refer to the Responder’s Owner’s
Manual for detailed instructions on how to properly install and Link it to KeypadLinc.
The following will work for the most common INSTEON devices:
1) At the Responder, set it to the state you wish to be activated from KeypadLinc (turn it on if you wish it
to be on or off if you wish it to be off when KeypadLinc activates the scene, set On-Levels/brightness
levels, Ramp Rates, etc.)
• If the Responder is a multi-scene device, tap the Scene button you wish to control until its
LED is in the desired state (on or off)
2) Set KeypadLinc to Linking Mode by pressing & holding the desired button until it beeps (10 seconds)
The button’s LED will begin blinking
You will have 4 minutes to complete the next step before Linking Mode automatically times out.
3) Press & hold the Responder’s Set button for 3 seconds
KeypadLinc will beep and the button’s LED will stop blinking and turn on solid
4) Confirm that Linking was successful by tapping the button you just Linked to on KeypadLinc on and
then off
The Responder will respond appropriately
5) If you wish to Link additional devices to the same button on KeypadLinc, either repeat steps 1-4 with
each Responder or see Multi-Linking and Multi-Unlinking
Unlinking an INSTEON Responder from KeypadLinc Schedule Timer
If you are no longer going to use an INSTEON Responder that has been Linked to KeypadLinc, it is very
important that you Unlink it. Otherwise, KeypadLinc will retry any commands repetitively, thus slowing
down the system.
The following will work for the most common INSTEON devices:
1) If the Responder is a multi-scene device, tap the Scene button you wish to remove control from until
its LED illuminates
2) Set KeypadLinc to Linking Mode by pressing & holding the desired button until it beeps (10 seconds)
The button’s LED will begin blinking
3) Set KeypadLinc to Unlinking Mode by pressing & holding the desired button until it beeps again (10
seconds)
The button’s LED will continue blinking
4) Press & hold the Responder’s Set button for 3 seconds
KeypadLinc will beep and the button’s LED will stop blinking and turn on solid
5) Confirm that Unlinking was successful by tapping the button you just Unlinked from on KeypadLinc on
and then off
The Responder will no longer respond
