Setting the Default On-Level

The Default ON-Level is the brightness level that LampLinc will adjust the light when

the switched on locally or by a powerline carrier (PLC) ON-command. Each time the

LampLinc is turned on, the light will come to the same level. This is ideal for situa-

tions where the existing light bulb produces too much light.  (See Advanced Primary

Address Programming for instructions on Remotely Setting the ON-level.)
Alternatively, LampLinc can be set to Resume Dim. When LampLinc receives an

“ON” command, it will come back on to the last dim level it was at before being

turned off. 
One exception to this is when an “ALL LIGHTS ON” command is received. The

LampLinc will go to 100% brightness at its programmed fade-on rate.

Setting a fixed brightness level:

1. Adjust light’s brightness to the desired level by 

sending BRIGHT or DIM

com-

mands.

2. Tap the 

Set Button ONCE

. The light will blink to confirm the change.

Setting resume dim:

1. Turn the light off by sending an 

“OFF”

command.

2. Tap the 

Set Button ONCE

.

Advanced Primary Address Programming

The LampLinc's Fade-On/Off rate and Default On-Level can be remotely set using a

ControLinc Duo  (Smarthome #4071), a Maxi-Controller (#4020) or an equivalent

transmitter capable of sending Housecode and Unit Code without ON or OFF.  These

procedures and all the following ones will not work with a transmitter that sends the

address with a command. Transmitters in which one button is pressed to turn on or

off a load will not work.

Remotely Setting the Fade-On/Off Rate

This is the alternative method of adjusting the LampLinc's Fade-On/Off rate. 

1. Transmit the “clear” sequence

2. Send the house/unit code for the lamp module followed by the PRESET DIM

from the table below. (Alternatively, send BRIGHT or DIM signals to change the
lamp's brightness to a comparable level.)

3. Send the following command sequence to lock-in the new Fade-On/Off rate

The lamp’s light will blink indicating that it has set the new Fade-On/Off rate

.
