INSTEON-compatible AccessPoint User’s Guide
ABOUT INSTEON ACCESSPOINT
Congratulations on purchasing the INSTEON-compatible AccessPoint. Installing at least two
AccessPoints in your INSTEON enabled home will improve INSTEON signal strength and network
coverage throughout your home, and provide an interface between wireless-only INSTEON devices and
your overall INSTEON network. AccessPoints also tie together your dual-mesh INSTEON network by
transmitting INSTEON signals across radio-frequency to bridge your home’s powerline wiring phases.

What is INSTEON?
INSTEON is a simple, reliable, and affordable breakthrough in home control. Simple, because Plug-n-
Tap
™
setup is a breeze, and there are no wires to add – INSTEON uses existing powerline wiring as well
as radio-frequency for communication. Reliable, because every INSTEON device is a two-way repeater.
And affordable, not just because of low cost, but because INSTEON also works with legacy X10 devices.
An INSTEON home grows in value with every INSTEON device you add, making life more convenient,
safe and fun.
