OutletLinc Owner’s Manual
Restoring Power to OutletLinc
OutletLinc stores all of its settings, such as Links to other INSTEON devices, On-Levels/Ramp Rates,
etc., with non-volatile memory. Because settings are saved in this non-volatile memory, they will not be
lost in the event of a power failure.
In the event of a power loss OutletLinc will automatically return the load to the brightness level it had
before power was interrupted.
Resetting OutletLinc to its Factory Default Settings
The factory reset procedure can be used to clear the OutletLinc memory of all INSTEON Links and any
programmed X10 addresses. Depending on where OutletLinc is located, you can use one of two reset
methods.
The easiest way to reset OutletLinc involves removing power via the circuit breaker. You may need to ask
someone to help you complete the following instructions:
1) If you are using a Controller to control OutletLinc, be sure to Unlink it from the Controller. See
Unlinking OutletLinc from an INSTEON Controller.
2) As you remove power at the circuit breaker, press & hold the Set button on OutletLinc
3) Wait 10 seconds
4) Press & hold the Set button on OutletLinc while you restore power at the circuit breaker
5) Continue to hold down the Set button for 3 seconds and then release
The OutletLinc Status LED will turn on bright and solid and then turn off
After a few seconds, the Status LED will turn on solid
If the placement of OutletLinc makes the first method too difficult, try manually resetting the unit with the
following instructions:
1) If you are using a Controller to control OutletLinc, be sure to Unlink it from the Controller. See
Unlinking OutletLinc from an INSTEON Controller.
2) Tap the Set button on OutletLinc until the load is on
3) Press & hold the Set button on OutletLinc for 3 seconds
The OutletLinc Status LED will begin blinking
4) Wait 3 seconds and then tap the Set button on OutletLinc five times quickly
The OutletLinc Status LED and the load will turn off
5) Immediately after the LED turns off, press & hold the button for 3 seconds and then release
The OutletLinc Status LED will flash once and then turn off
A few seconds later, the Status LED will turn on solid
