    Easy to Set Up
    IRLinc is compatible with IR codes found in most universal remotes, which nearly guarantees your remote will work with it. IRLinc's talk-back LED allows you to identify easily which IR codes are compatible. After programming a compatible IR code into your remote, IRLinc is easy to set up like other Smarthome-brand INSTEON products, using simple Plug-n-Tap setup.

    X10 Compatible
    IRLinc is fully INSTEON compatible and X10 ready. Homeowners with existing X10 networks can easily migrate to an INSTEON network without having to discard all their existing X10 devices. X10 ready means that IRLinc can control X10 devices, using X10 commands. Please note that IRLinc can control either X10 devices or INSTEON devices, but not both for any given IR command sent from your universal remote.

    Non-Volatile Memory
    All IRLinc settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are not lost during power failures.

    Certifications and Warranty
    All IRLinc products are safety approved. The factory for SmartLabs Design Products is ISO9001 certified. Because of this passion for quality, Smarthome stands behind IRLinc with a full 2-year warranty.

    Credit Card Remote
    The IRLinc now ships with the credit card remote. The credit card remote is small enough to be taken with you anywhere you go in your home. With the credit card remote you can control 12 scenes - 8 On / Off button pairs, 4 scene activation buttons and all on / off. You can easily set up scenes with add/remove buttons. The credit card remote does not support X10.

    MARCOS -- rio de janeiro, XX   11/7/2011
    Product received without the IR sensor. The product was shipped to USA and them Shipped to Brazil via freight forward. The box was opened by the customs in USA and Brazil and maybe the part was lost in one of these locations. The IRLinc Receiver is useless without this part, so I need to know if possible to buy only this part (IR sensor)or if I can use any type of IR sensor with it ?
    CLINTON -- powell, OH   10/19/2011
    Arrived quickly and worked as promised. Easy to set up for my application.
    SEAN -- derwood, MD   9/29/2011
    I was looking at adding light control the my recreation room remotes - the IRLinc Receiver, combined with a SmartLinc Light Control Kit, made it relatively quick. However, do heed the warnings about having two either dual-band devices or access points in your system to bridge the phases - in my case, I discovered that the outlets were on a different phase than the lights. Best part? Not only do my remotes now control my lights, but my programmable remote control 'magic wand' does, too!
    CHARLES -- madison, MS   9/14/2011
    A bit complicated to program, but works great.
    BRIAN -- mesa, AZ   7/25/2011
    Great way to control Insteon lighting from any third-party remote!
    JOEL -- sao paulo, XX   5/30/2011
    Excellent. I recommend it.
    STANLEY -- riverside, CA   2/7/2011
    Excellent as Advertised I wish they were smaller.
    RONALD -- encinitas, CA   1/3/2011
    Works great with Harmony remote. Make sure you do not plug the device into a surge suppressor as this may cause interference with the signaling.
    KENNETH -- boynton beach, FL   10/20/2010
    Works great. I use it with a Harmony 520 Universal Remote, so now when I turn on the theater, the lights slowly dim.
    TARUN -- little rock, AR   10/16/2010
    Works with Harmony 890. But few issues regarding unpredictable response. Cant seem to correct it so far.
    CHARLES -- hazelwood, MO   10/13/2010
    Works great with my Harmony 1100 remote. Fully customizable interface via the harmony software.
    JEFFREY -- winchester, MA   10/8/2010
    Works well directly, but haven't been able to connect to Xantec IR distribution.
    LEONILDO -- sao paulo, XX   5/21/2010
    Absolutely fantastic! Now, the lighting of my house is completely under my control... Leo from Brazil
    RHIANNA -- aurora, CO   5/7/2010
    Extremely hard to program and does not work well with X10. This is a good device and the only of it's kind I have found. It DOES work with X10, but not very well. There is nothing I haven't been able to get it to do....eventually, but just the difficulty of programming makes this product very frustrating. Does with with HarmonyOne, but you have to do some funky programming, either learning from included remote(which cannot be used with x10) or programming in a generic remote to use the codes from. Purchase only if you are very patient, AND technical.
    DANIEL -- towson, MD   3/16/2010
    The product works as expected, but is a bit hard to set up, due to the relative lack of documentation. It took a combination of using push button programming and assigning links in PowerHome to make it work, for my purposes. The mini IR remote is a big plus, as it makes it much easier to teach universal remotes the IR codes. I used it to teach my Harmony One and was able to set up scenes that I can now control w/ it.
    THOMAS -- sunnyvale, CA   1/22/2010
    Works very well. My only objection is that programming my Harmony Universal remote was more complicated than I expected. I expected it would be setup to emulate the remote that comes with the IRLinc. Instead, it was necessary to have IRLinc and the switches I wanted to control LEARN how to respond to the IR commands coming from the Harmony. Once I set it up though, it works perfectly.
    WILL -- amherst, OH   1/5/2010
    Fabulous product. This works with my Logitech Harmony remote without a problem.
    CHRISTOPHER -- new york, NY   12/25/2009
    Very easy to set up, worked perfectly.
    RICK -- austin, TX   12/10/2009
    Works well. Time consuming if you want your remote's button to be discrete (remote's button sends just ON or OFF) instead of a toggle. I wish discrete was the default instead of toggle.
    JAMES -- lake worth, FL   12/7/2009
    Worked well, however the built in IR codes that are used by the device are from NEC. This is not a common IR format and as a result the ASCII HEX codes are not easily accepted by many high-end universal remotes editors. However, you can use the supplied IR remote and teach your remote the codes.
