Getting Started
Fully charge your Mini Remote prior to programming or anytime the unit is not responding. Mini Remote
charges via USB cable (Type A to Micro-B, sold separately). The red charging LED will turn off once the
battery has been fully charged (approximately 1 hour). To turn on Mini Remote, simply slide the power
switch to the on position.
Note: Mini Remote uses a subtle beeper sound to assist setup. It is recommended that you program the
unit in a quiet area.
Scenes
Scene: One or more INSTEON devices which respond to an INSTEON controller. When the scene is
activated (turned “on”), all devices return to the states they were at when the scene was programmed.
INSTEON scenes let you activate dramatic lighting moods at the touch of a button. For example, you can
set all the lights in a scene to dim to 50% or turn certain lights on while turning others off, all with the tap
of a button on any INSTEON Controller. INSTEON scenes are easy to set up, just follow the directions
below.
Maximum number of scenes in Mini Remote Switch: 2 (Default is 1)
Scene Control Functions supported; On, Off, Press and hold Bright, Press and hold Dim, Double-tap Fast
On and Double-tap Fast Off.
Make Mini Remote a Controller
1) Tap the Mini Remote switch (top or bottom paddle) – if in 2 scene mode, tap the top of the paddle for
scene 1 or the bottom for scene 2
2) Adjust the responder to the state you want when the scene is activated from Mini Remote
3) Press and hold Mini Remote’s set button until it beeps
LED will begin blinking green
4) Press and hold the responder’s set button until it beeps or its LED flashes
Mini Remote will double-beep and its LED will stop blinking
Responder’s LED will stop blinking (it may also double-beep)
5) Confirm that scene addition was successful by tapping the Mini Remote paddle on/off
The Responder will toggle between the scene on level and off
6) If you wish to add more responders to Mini Remote, repeat steps 1-5 for each additional scene
responder (or see
Make Mini Remote a Controller of Multiple Responders
)
Remove Mini Remote as a Controller
If you are no longer going to use an INSTEON responder that is a scene responder of Mini Remote, it is
very important that you remove its scene membership. Otherwise, Mini Remote will retry every scene
command repetitively, thus creating delays and shortening battery life.
1) Tap the Mini Remote switch (top or bottom paddle) - if in 2 scene mode, tap the top of the paddle for
scene 1 or the bottom for scene 2
2) Press and hold Mini Remote set button until it beeps
