Overview

• Monitor when any device wired for low voltage is turned on
• Create an automated scene for safety
• INSTEON compatibility for outstanding performance

Essential Info

Activate an automated scene in your home that will turn on (or off) INSTEON controlled lights and/or appliances whenever a device with low voltage power is turned on. This kit enhances your INSTEON network by using a Low Voltage Detector Probe to sense when power to a device (from 3V to 24V AC or DC) has been turned on. Once low voltage is sensed, a signal is sent to I/O Linc which in turn will trigger INSTEON controlled devices to turn on or off. This kit can be used in conjunction with relay type devices, such as keypad access control systems, to engage INSTEON scenes as you enter or exit. When a correct code has been entered on an access control keypad, allowing access through a gate, door, or garage door, the Low Voltage Detector Probe will be triggered when power is applied to the switched relay. You can use this kit in conjunction with a I/O Linc - INSTEON Remote Chime Alert Kit to have a audible signal sent, alerting you that a visitor has arrived - or simply create a lighting scene that will provide safety as you enter your home at night. This versatile kit can be used with almost any device that plugs into the wall with a low voltage power supply (provided it is between 3V and 24V AC or DC). Once the plugged in device is powered, the Low Voltage Detector Probe will sense and trigger an INSTEON scene.

How it Works
Connect the bare wire leads from the Low Voltage Detector Probe in-line with the wires of a device you wish to monitor (e.g. keypad). Connect the 1/8" plug from the Low Voltage Detector Probe into the 1/8" mini jack input on the bottom of I/O Linc. Plug the I/O Linc into an available non-switched power outlet then follow the proper procedure to link I/O Linc with other INSTEON controlled devices. Once the device you are monitoring is powered, I/O Linc will receive notification from the Low Voltage Detector Probe and trigger the linked INSTEON devices to turn on or off (depending on the state you linked them in).

Please Note: The Low Voltage Detector Probe will only trigger I/O Linc to turn a linked INSTEON device on or off when the device relay is activated; no action will take place when the device relay is turned off.
