    Ideal At-Home Control
    SmartLinc works in combination with your router and most mobile Wi-Fi or web-enabled devices to control INSTEON devices within your home. Setup only requires a few easy steps to identify your network IP address and then type it into your PC or mobile device. After setup has been completed, you can start linking INSTEON lights and appliances and creating scenes that will make home life more convenient and energy efficient.
    Requirements:
    • Wi-Fi enabled phone or PDA
    • Wi-Fi router
    • PC connected to router
    Note: The Linksys Router Model WRT610N Version 1 has been found to be incompatible with the Smartlinc. The more recent version WRT610N Version 2 is compatible with the SmartLinc.

    Away from Home Control
    In much the same way as the At-Home setup works, while you are away from home you can access your INSTEON network using SmartLinc in conjunction with any internet connection or Wi-Fi hotspot. Simply identify your home’s IP address and type it into your mobile device, then you can turn devices on or off at anytime, from anywhere, with the same reliability as you would have at home.
    Requirements:
    • Broadband internet connection (at home)
    • Web-enabled phone, PDA or PC
    • Router with port forwarding configured

    Timers
    Whether you are at-home or away from home, scheduling timers for devices on your INSTEON network is a valuable way to not only make your life easier but to manage the amount of energy consumption that is taking place. Timers can be set up from your PC or mobile device for one On time and one Off time for every scene in SmartLinc.

    Pre-Organized, User-Defined Rooms
    SmartLinc - INSTEON Central Controller takes remote access of your INSTEON home automation network a step further. It gives you the ability to apply unique names and labels for devices and scenes and then further organize those into rooms. By assigning your own naming convention, you define the simplicity of navigating your own network.

    View Power Consumption

    Power consumption on your smartphone
    Get instant access to power consumption (wattage) of a device from any smartphone or web-enabled computer using SmartLinc and an iMeter Solo. If you already own SmartLinc and would like to view the power consumption of the iMeter, simply update your .bin file. SmartLinc currently supports viewing the wattage of one iMeter.

    NOTE: By default, SmartLinc allows you to populate up to 15 rooms. If using the SmartLinc .bin file with iMeter Solo support, SmartLinc will only support population of up to 14 rooms. If you are currently using room 15, please be sure to move those devices/scenes to another room before you update your .bin file.


    IP Camera Support

    Wireless IP CameraSmartLinc - INSTEON Central Controller enables you access a network surveillance camera so that you can watch your home while you control it, all from a web-enabled device. Turn on your interior lights or your yard lights; and from the same screen watch it happen. We recommend the Smarthome Wireless IP Camera, sold separately, and consider it to be a valuable tool that integrates your home automation and security into one.


    iPhone and iPod touch Control
    If you already have an iPhone or iPod touch and a Wi-Fi router, SmartLinc is all you need to start controlling all of your INSTEON devices. Simply access the SmartLinc web application via your devices browser and add devices, create lighting scenes and timer events, all from the palm of your hand.

      Don't Block your Outlets
      SmartLinc - INSTEON Central Controller includes Smarthome's innovative pass-through AC outlet on the front of the unit. This outlet allows you to plug in additional AC devices without affecting the SmartLinc. While the outlet doesn't have any control features, it really helps against "power strip buildup."

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

      Non-Volatile Memory & Battery Backup
      SmartLinc has internal intelligence to control your home without a computer running a full-time automation program. You'll be able to set up schedules directly on your PC, yet the settings are stored on the plug-in module, so you won't have to keep your PC running to activate timed functions. SmartLinc - INSTEON Central Controller has 32KB of downloadable EEPROM memory that won't be erased if the power fails. An on-board clock keeps accurate time, all the time, with integrated 10-year battery backup.

    AARON -- alpharetta, GA   5/11/2012
    I can not get the item to work.
    RICHARD -- north chesterfield, VA   5/7/2012
    Could have better documention for the newbies. But does what it's advertised.
    WALTER FLORES -- fort collins, CO   5/4/2012
    The product is really good, but the free software could be improved. The setup took me a little bit of time, but after that everything worked fine.
    DONALD -- mckinney, TX   4/26/2012
    This is a good product that functions well. The information on the product is misleading for the use of X10 devices. It takes considerable programming to get X10 to work. The help from custermer service was great! They sent me a worksheet that made setting up the code easer. I feel this should be made a part of the download information.
    DENNIS -- amherst, OH   4/22/2012
    The Insteon Controller was bad out of the box and so was the replacement they sent me. I only had 10 days to set up the system I wanted and I ended up sending everything back for a refund. The customer support was lacking technical knowledge as they followed a script and after 5 Reps and two Controllers, they proclaimed my problem to be something "Enviromental". The refund processes was painless and they supplied all the shipping labels. I was very dissapointed with the product.
    KENNETH -- madison, AL   4/21/2012
    Good device. I like the smartphone interface. Am looking toward add more controlled items.
    JOEL -- cary, NC   4/21/2012
    It's an improvement over the X-10 technology it's replacing. It does the job I want of turning on sets of lights at sunset and off at a specific time. However, I had to two installations (two houses) and had to go through a few controllers before I got ones that worked (sometimes timer issues, sometimes controller issues). Smarthome couldn't have been nicer in the exchanges and tech support, but the production quality on the units I got was hit or miss.
    STUART -- defiance, MO   4/19/2012
    Very good controller and the browser based interface is easy to use. Would have liked to see a security type on-off feature for lamps where the times vary. Other than that, very satisfied.
    CHRIS -- manteca, CA   4/14/2012
    This controller will not communicate with any insteon devices I have installed. The tech support told me to install dual band switched so I did and still will not work. After trying 3 of these controllers I will have to try something else.
    ADAM -- winnipeg, MB   4/12/2012
    A bit of a delay when operating from Iphone. Recent app updates are making this work far better than I originally got it a few weeks ago. Definitely recommend this. I can shut down all the lights in my house just before I go to sleep at night.
    RYAN -- coplay, PA   3/26/2012
    Easy to install and configure. Directions are straight-forward and thorough. The only con I have is that this device only supports 1 timer per device per day (ex. On at 8am and off at 10am; no other on/off time would be able to be set for that day). It would be easy for the developers to write a few lines of code to allow multiple schedules for each device. Is an update/firmware upgrade in the near future?
    JEFFREY -- litchfield, NH   3/25/2012
    I had no problem setting up the system for use on my Android phone.I'll be purchasing switches and themostat in the near future.
    LANDON -- altamonte springs, FL   3/24/2012
    it's 2012 people - the future is now VERY simple to set up and easy to use on ur phone!
    ROBERT -- belle mead, NJ   3/24/2012
    I use this controller for both X10 and insteon. I use my ipad or iphone.
    KLAUS -- wauchula, FL   3/23/2012
    Easy to set up. Love the iPhone app to control my lights.
    DALE -- bowling green, OH   3/22/2012
    Installed easy and works great.
    RAYMOND -- parker, CO   3/21/2012
    Easy install and set up
    MARK -- beaverton, OR   3/19/2012
    I would like macros. Better instructions such as the need to check the Status box
    JOHN -- cincinnati, OH   3/12/2012
    Simple to set up and use.
    JOHN -- pittsburgh, PA   3/2/2012
    This is a replacement to one I bought years ago that I had nothing but problems with. The first one was unreliable from day one ( timers unreliable, had to reset it all the time, lost access to its functions). During the whole ordeal, I spent a lot of money buying timerlincs and Houselinc to troubleshoot and replicate what it was suppose to do, instead of sending it back under warranty. I took the chance and spent more money for the 2nd one - it works as advertised.
