Overview

  • Remotely control hardwired incandescent lights without running wires for a wall switch
  • Fits inside a standard electrical box
  • Controls up to 400 Watts at 100-277VAC and 50/60Hz
  • Featuring dual-band INSTEON technology for the fastest and most reliable performance

Essential Info

This dimmer is designed to be installed within a junction box or in a ceiling fixture allowing you remote control over lights that may not have a direct connection to a wall switch. This allows you to pair the dimmer with any number of INSTEON remote controllers.

This dimmer controls incandescent bulbs. If you need to control a fluorescent light fixture or an appliance, try the In-LineLinc Relay.

INSTEON also offers a Micro Dimmer Module that wires in behind your existing switches or fixtures. This allows you to keep your existing antique, toggle or decorative wall switches while adding the customizable, dimmable INSTEON remote control functionality.

Note: As with all dimmers, the In-LineLinc may feel warm during operation. Rigorously tested and approved to UL-standards, the amount of heat generated falls well within approved limits and poses no threat to your home or the lifespan of the device.

  • More Info


    This dimmer can be used with dimmable LED bulbs to help you save even more energy. While performance may vary between manufacturers, we have found that Sylvania Ultra LED dimmable bulbs offer great performance with a wide and smooth dimming range. The Ultra LED series include the following types: Standard (A-Line), MR16, PAR16, PAR16 GUI10, PAR20, PAR30LN and PAR38.


    Easy To Install
    The INSTEON In-LineLinc Dimmer is easy to install and set up. Its small size allows installation in a standard J-box or in a ceiling light fixture. Control each kitchen light individually or rows of can lights with a single INSTEON In-LineLinc Dimmer. Learn more about INSTEON here.

    Perfect for Locations without a Switch
    Whether you're planning to install recessed lighting or have already done so, you don't need to go through the hassle of running the wiring for a new wall switch. By installing an In-LineLinc in a fixture box, you'll be able to control the lights from any location in your home. Simply install the In-LineLinc in the fixture box, link it manually or via HouseLinc - INSTEON Desktop Software, and you'll be able to turn lights on and off and dim them using any INSTEON-compatible controller. For maximum personalized control, wire an In-LineLinc to each non-switched light for the ultimate in mood settings.

    Adjustable Ramp Rate
    Adjust the speed at which the controlled light turns on or off, also known as the ramp rate. For example, you may want the light in the stairwell to turn on instantly so you can see where you're walking. Alternatively, you may want the light in the master bathroom to ramp up in a soft, gentle fashion so you're not blinded in the middle of the night. The ramp rate is adjustable between 0.1 second and 9 seconds if programmed locally. The ramp rate can extend up to 8 minutes (for a simulated sunrise or sunset) if programmed using software such as HouseLinc. This is a great addition to your morning alarm, slowly turning the light on to help you wake up.

    Easy to Program
    Programming an In-LineLinc can be easily done a couple of different ways. The Tap method is best for your initial setup. Simply go into linking mode on any INSTEON-compatible controller and then press the set button on the In-LineLinc for 3 seconds; the load and the status LED will flash. You are now linked and can control the In-LineLinc from the controller of your choice. Keep in mind that once installed in a fixture, the In-LineLinc will not be easily accessible, thus making new links and scene programming difficult. We recommend using software such as HouseLinc 2 - INSTEON Desktop Software to manage the links of your In-LineLinc after it is installed. Remember, you will need to have the INSTEON ID in order to program with software.

    Scene Lighting
    Scenes allow you to control multiple lights, rooms or even the whole home with a single command. Because the In-LineLinc Dimmer can be a member of more than 400 scenes (i.e. "Movie Time," "Party," "Romance," etc.), you'll be able to launch various lighting scenarios with a single button press. These are elegant features usually found only in systems costing tens of thousands of dollars and requiring extensive rewiring of your home. All member lights can ramp to your independently desired brightness levels at your chosen ramp rate(s). So one set of lights can dim slowly, while another set turns off instantly, all controlled with one command from one button. If you want to control multiple scenes from one controller, we suggest the INSTEON KeypadLinc.

    Compatibility
    In-LineLinc Dimmer is fully INSTEON compatible and X10 ready. Homeowners with existing X10 networks can easily migrate to an INSTEON network without having to discard all of their existing X10 devices. X10 ready means that it can respond to X10 commands from an X10 controller. Please note that INSTEON devices repeat INSTEON signals but not X10.

    Dual-Band
    In-LineLinc is dual band so it has the ability to communicate using both the electrical wires in the home (powerline) as well as using radio frequency (RF). This increases reliability not only for In-LineLinc but for all devices on an INSTEON home control network (similar to the function of an Access Point).

    Non-Volatile Memory
    All In-LineLinc Dimmer settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are not lost during power failures. Additionally, in the event of a power loss, the In-LineLinc Dimmer will return to its last brightness level when power is restored.

    Certifications and Warranty
    All In-LineLinc Dimmer products are safety approved. The factory for INSTEON products is ISO9001 certified. In order to meet the ISO9001 standards, the entire factory underwent rigorous inspections of procedures and policies before being certified. The certification received was based on its dedication to high-quality management systems and strict adherence of quality control systems and guidelines. Because of this, INSTEON stands behind the entire In-LineLinc line of products with a full 2-year warranty.

    ROSAMOND -- san pedro, CA   4/24/2013
    My overhead living room light was 'hot' but had no corresponding wall switch. Rather than go through a costly and disruptive traditional wall-switch installation, this in-line dimmer synched to the mini-remote switch was the perfect answer. It was so easy to install and it works beautifully. Problem is solved.
    BENNY -- las vegas, NV   4/12/2013
    works perfect!!!!
    PAUL -- sykesville, MD   3/16/2013
    Works well - especially with Indigo 6 and the IOS app. I can control a set of lights easily. They can be dimmed or turned off and on.
    JANET -- lorton, VA   3/7/2013
    It works great, easy to install and program. I will definitely use them again. I retired as a electrician 6 years ago and could have used these in many situations. I could have used the non dimming module to turn a multitude of things on and off remotely. Larry Catlett
    KEITH -- sparta, NJ   2/28/2013
    Very simple installation. Pared with ToggleLinc switch easily. Works great.
    HENRY -- fairview, TX   2/11/2013
    Works great!
    WILLIAM -- salem, VA   1/10/2013
    I'm sure that it will work but it is very bulky. I need something smaller. Likely to return for that reason.
    PATRICK -- phoenix, AZ   12/27/2012
    Very easy to use. Seems to meet my expectations. A bit more expensive than I wanted however.
    PATRICK -- phoenix, AZ   12/22/2012
    Easy setup and, most importantly, works as advertised.
    DONALD -- alexandria, VA   12/19/2012
    I am very happy with the inline RC dimmer. It installed very easily and is working well with a wireless keypad.
    STEVEN -- edenton, NC   12/16/2012
    Wiring in-lineLinc into existing recessed light canister is not easy but it will fit. Linked units to 8 button keypadLinc. Quick sheet wiring. Diagram is not for my configuration. But help desk gave me correct wiring instructions. I can now operate 7 recessed lights independently. Each one can now be turned on or off and dimmed. After shakey start I would recommend product.
    COY -- taylors, SC   12/2/2012
    Performed as described.
    KEVIN -- grand marais, MN   11/10/2012
    The unit itself is great, however, it wasn't in stock when ordered and status updates were not well delivered.
    JONATHAN -- wynnewood, PA   10/29/2012
    Works as expected.
    ROLAND -- sioux falls, SD   10/18/2012
    Purchased to replace failed unit. Second time failure. Unfortunately Smarthome has no interest in analyzing dead units to study cause of failure. No records (in spite of the unique ID on every unit). No warranty. Don't care. Other than that, everything's wonderful.
    LARRY -- wilmette, IL   10/11/2012
    No rating. Returned without trying because I returned the extremely poor 2412N timer that was purchased to control these and other Insteon devices.
    PATRICIA -- elizabethtown, KY   10/5/2012
    Use this to control your lighting without a wall switch. (You need only this and the RemoteLinc 2 to dim, brighten, turn off, or turn on your ceiling light or chandelier.). Highly recommended!
    VINCENT -- wesley chapel, FL   9/26/2012
    I have one of these installed outside (in a waterproof enclosure) in hot/humid Florida and it has performed perfectly so far.
    GREGG -- kirkland, WA   9/15/2012
    If you're doing Insteon, cool device to put in a junction box that goes onto lighting. This was a replacement for one that I may have screwed up (within the warranty period), but they replaced it. Thanks! I think it needs to be fused somehow to protect it from failing due to a short in the light it is controlling.
    JUDY -- denison, TX   8/26/2012
    These work great. Easy to program, reliable, and no LED flicker problems.
