TriggerLinc is a magnetic contact sensor that wirelessly controls lights and appliances throughout your house. When magnetic contact is broken, such as a door or window being opened, TriggerLinc can do things like turn on lights, set the
thermostat to its comfort setting, or trigger a custom event in
HouseLinc 2. Gain the peace of mind knowing that you'll be alerted when the back door sneaks ajar or the side window slides open. Useful for doors, windows, drawers, sheds, cabinets, and anything else that opens, TriggerLinc is a wireless, easy-to-use solution for adding convenience and awareness to any INSTEON-controlled home. An
AA battery is required and included.
How it worksIn the example illustration above, TriggerLinc is mounted to a door frame and the included magnet attaches to the door. When the magnet is separated from TriggerLinc (door opening) it sends a wireless RF signal to the nearest
Access Point or other dual-band product (sold separately) which in turn relays the signal over your existing power wires to turn on linked devices such as lamps or wall switches. When the door is closed, TriggerLinc turns those same devices off. While at least 1
dual-band product is required when using an RF transmitter, at least 2 are recommended to ensure a reliable INSTEON network.
