Make sure you are not experiencing
interference with older X10 BoosterLinc
technology. Upgrade to INSTEON-compatible

BoosterLinc modules (#4827)

.

ToggleLinc doesn't
always respond to an
INSTEON controller.

The INSTEON controller may
have been reset without first
unlinking ToggleLinc from it.

Relink ToggleLinc to the INSTEON controller.
See

Adding ToggleLinc as an INSTEON

Responder.

The light turned on by
itself.

Another controller, a timer or
stray X10 signals triggered
ToggleLinc.

Install a powerline signal blocker in your home
to keep X10 signals from neighboring homes
from interfering. Consider not using ToggleLinc
in X10 mode.

If the above doesn't work, perform a factory
reset. See

Factory Reset.

The controlled light does
not turn on or off right
away.

The ramp rate may be set too
slow.

Set a shorter ramp rate. See

Setting the Ramp

Rate.

ToggleLinc turns on, but
not off, using another
controller.

The load is producing
electrical noise that is
interfering with the reception
of powerline signal.

Install a

powerline noise filter

(such as

FilterLinc) between the load and ToggleLinc.

Install additional INSTEON devices to boost
the INSTEON signal.

Increase the X10 signal strength with an
INSTEON-compatible X10 booster to
overcome the power line noise.

Remove the X10 address from the button on
your INSTEON controller so it doesn’t send
both INSTEON and X10 commands.

My light only turns off
when I tap the toggle top
on ToggleLinc Dimmer,
but I can brighten and
dim it.

You may have removed an
INSTEON device that your
ToggleLinc is trying to
operate. ToggleLinc is retrying
the missing INSTEON device.

If the INSTEON device is still available, unlink it
from ToggleLinc. See

Removing ToggleLinc as

an INSTEON Controller.

Perform a factory reset. See

Factory Reset

.

When I press the toggle
on ToggleLinc, it takes a
long time for other
INSTEON responders to
respond.

ToggleLinc doesn't
respond to X10 address
A1 when I first set it up.

Unlike previous X10-only
products, ToggleLinc does not
have an X10 address set up at
the factory.

Set up an X10 address. See

Adding an X10

Address.

The load is buzzing
when on or dim.

The dimming component
inside ToggleLinc "chops" the
powerline sine wave to reduce
the power.

The buld filaments are vibrating. Use rough-
service, 130V or appliance-grade bulbs to
reduce the noise.

Run ToggleLinc in “full-on” mode or switch to a
non-dimming ToggleLinc On/Off Relay.

ToggleLinc is locked up.

A surge or excessive noise on
the powerline may have
glitched it.

Pull the Set button on ToggleLinc all the way
out to create an air gap, wait 10 seconds, then
push it back in until it’s flush with the trim frame
(don't push it all the way in).

If the above doesn't work, perform a factory
