INSTEON SwitchLinc Relay Countdown Timer, White — With Single Button Timer Control
Worried about throwing away money on electricity because someone forgot to turn off the lights? Install the INSTEON SwitchLinc Relay Countdown Timer, and you won't have to worry any more. Just replace your existing wall switch with the new INSTEON SwitchLinc Relay Countdown Timer, and it will turn off all by itself! This is a perfect switch for the kids' room or for the bathroom fan that you always leave on. It works as a standalone wall switch timer or with your INSTEON network, adding local countdown timer control to your INSTEON network without computer-controlled timer software.

Press the paddle top to turn on the switch and activate the built-in timer, which will automatically turn the light off in 15 minutes. Tap the paddle top again, and the light will stay on for 1 hour. Each additional tap will add another hour to the timer, up to a maximum of 24 hours. If you would like the SwitchLinc Timer to act like a standard switch, press and hold the paddle top for about 2 seconds, and it will stay on until you turn it off. This INSTEON-compatible switch can still be controlled like any other INSTEON device. The INSTEON SwitchLinc Relay Countdown Timer can control up to a 480-watt incandescent or 13A resistive load. Note: When you use another INSTEON device to control the switch or use the SwitchLinc Timer to control another INSTEON device, the timer function does not apply. It will act like a standard INSTEON SwitchLinc Relay (Non-Dimming).

For an INSTEON countdown timer with 8 one-touch timer durations, try KeypadLinc - INSTEON Countdown Timer.

If you need a switch to control dimmable devices, use either the INSTEON SwitchLinc Dimmer , or the High-Wattage INSTEON SwitchLinc Dimmer. You can install the Smarthome Manager Essential's Timer Software on your computer to schedule any SwitchLinc Timer or any other INSTEON-compatible device to turn on or off at any specific time or even at sunrise and sunset.

Note: As with all wall dimmers, the SwitchLinc 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.

    Easy To Install
    The INSTEON SwitchLinc Relay Countdown Timer is easy to install and set up, and yet so affordable, you'll want to replace all your switches with SwitchLinc switches. Just remove the old switch, reattach the existing line, load, ground, and neutral wires using the included wire nuts, and you're done. If this is your first INSTEON installation, the best way to ensure you get everything needed to provide the most reliable communication among devices is to buy the complete INSTEON Wire-in Dimmer Scene Lighting Starter Kit, which includes everything required to set up your INSTEON network, including two SwitchLinc Dimmers , a pair of INSTEON SignaLinc RF Signal Extenders to ensure INSTEON network reliability, and the desktop ControLinc V2.

    Beautiful, High-Quality Construction
    Unlike other switches, the SwitchLinc Timer offers the natural feel of high-end dimmers. You'll love the crisp, tactile response with each touch instead of the mushy feeling of other brands. An elegant brightness bar of 8 white LEDs indicates the current on/off status of the lights being controlled. To match your room's décor, an LED color change-out kit is available with four colors: red, blue, amber, and green. Green, blue, red, and amber LED light pipes are also available in 4-pair packs. The SwitchLinc Timer is designed and manufactured to high-end specifications and goes through over 10 quality control tests before arriving at your doorstep. This modern Decora-style switch will blend with any room's design. White paddles are included with each SwitchLinc Timer, but additional paddle colors are available and sold separately. Choose the color that best suits your room's décor: Ivory, Almond, Black, Brown, or Grey. Two paddles are included in each color-change set. Don't forget to order a matching wall plate.

    Built with a Quieter Relay
    Because the INSTEON SignaLinc RF Signal Extender is built with a much quieter relay than most remote-control ON/OFF switches, it has a click that's more than 80 percent quieter than traditional relay switches. This allows you to control lights and other non-dimmable devices remotely without waking up the baby, annoying other family members, or sending your cat fleeing across the room. The click of the SwitchLinc Timer's internal relay is barely audible.

    Generates Less Heat
    Unlike triac-based switches, the SwitchLinc Timer uses a hard-contact relay to control the load. The other switches use a semiconductor that absorbs about two volts of power and dissipates the heat through the front of the switch. By using a relay, the switch runs cooler, and full voltage gets to the load.

    Create Multi-Way Circuits
    The SwitchLinc Timer allows you to customize your lighting setup no matter how your house is wired. It's simple to create a 3-, 4-, or 5-way circuit. First replace all of the existing switches you want to include in the circuit with SwitchLinc switches. The main SwitchLinc Timer must be connected to the standard wires: load, line, neutral, and ground. The secondary relay or dimmer only needs to be connected to the line, neutral, and ground wire. No traveler wires are needed, so it is easy to place one of the relays wherever you need it. Cross-linking all of the companion relays to the master relay is the last step in the process. The end result is a flexible, fully functional multi-way circuit.

    Scene Lighting
    Scenes allow you to control multiple lights, rooms or even the whole home with a single command. Because the SwitchLinc Timer 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. The relays can blend seamlessly in a scene with SwitchLinc dimmers. So one set of lights connected to a SwitchLinc Dimmer can slowly dim, while another set connected to the SwitchLinc Timer turns off instantly, all controlled with one command from one button. If you want to control multiple scenes from one controller, upgrade to the INSTEON KeypadLinc Dimmer.

    Compatibility
    The INSTEON SignaLinc RF Signal Extender 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 it can respond to X10 commands from an X10 controller and it can send X10 commands to X10 devices. Please note that INSTEON devices repeat INSTEON signals but not X10.

    Slim Design
    Similar relays are up to 50 percent deeper than the SwitchLinc Timer. Thanks to its slim design, it makes installation easy even in small junction boxes.

    Non-Volatile Memory
    All SwitchLinc Timer settings are stored in non-volatile memory and are not lost during power failures. Additionally, in the event of a power loss, the SwitchLinc Timer will return to its last on/off state when power is restored.

    Certifications and Warranty
    All SwitchLinc products are safety approved. The factory for SmartLabs Design Products is ISO9001 certified. In order to meet the ISO 9001 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, Smarthome stands behind the entire SwitchLinc line of products with a full 2-year warranty.
