Overview
ApplianceLinc V2 — Our Most Advanced Remote-Controllable Plug-In On/Off Switch Fill
your entire home with personalized mood lighting for any occasion. The ApplianceLinc
V2 is a full-featured plug-in on/off switch that can be remotely controlled by a
ControLinc tabletop controller, KeypadLinc V2, or any other INSTEON controller.
This simple-to-use plug-in on/off switch has advanced features like local control,
so you can still use the appliance's built-in switch to turn device on and off.
The ApplianceLinc V2 is made to plug into a 3-pin outlet. This on/off module controls
all standard appliances like fans, florescent lights, and many other non-dimmable
devices up to 15 amps and incandescent lights up to 480 watts. If you need to control
a dimmable lamp, try the LampLinc V2 2-Pin, or the grounded LampLinc V2 3-Pin, which
allow on/off and brightness control.
Never come home to a dark house again: Install Smarthome Manager Essential's
Timer Software on your computer to schedule any ApplianceLinc V2 or any other INSTEON-enabled
device to turn on or off at any specific time or even at sunrise and sunset.
Performance Features
Easy To Install
The ApplianceLinc V2 is easy to install and set up and yet so affordable, you'll
want to add ApplianceLinc V2 on/off modules to all of your appliances that you want
to control remotely. Just unplug the appliance and plug it into the bottom outlet
of the INSTEON ApplianceLinc V2 On/Off Module, and then plug the module back into
the wall outlet. Link the ApplianceLinc V2 to an INSTEON controller using the Plug
& Tap programming method, and you'll be able to turn the appliance on and off from
any linked INSTEON-enabled controller. If this is your first INSTEON installation,
the best way to ensure you get everything needed to provide the most reliable communication
among devices is to buy the complete Plug-In Dimmer INSTEON Starter Kit, which includes
everything required to set up your INSTEON network, including two LampLinc V2 Dimmers,
a pair of SignaLinc RFs to ensure INSTEON network reliability, and the desktop ControLinc.

Pass-Through Outlet
In addition to the INSTEON-controlled outlet, the ApplianceLinc offers a non-controlled
outlet on the front face, so you won't have to unplug your appliance module just
to find a place to plug in the vacuum cleaner.
Create Multi-Way Circuits
The ApplianceLinc V2 On/Off Module allows you to customize your lighting setup
no matter how your house is wired. It's simple to create a 3-, 4-, or 5-way controlled
appliances. Plug the device you want to include in the circuit into the module,
then plug the ApplianceLinc V2 into an open outlet. Link the ApplianceLinc V2 to
all the INSTEON-enabled wall switches and Tabletop Controllers that you want to
control the ApplianceLinc V2 On/Off Module for a flexible, fully functional multi-way
controlled appliance.
Scene
Lighting Scenes allow you to control multiple lights, rooms or even the whole
home with a single command. Because the ApplianceLinc V2 can be a member of more
than 400 scenes (i.e. "Movie Time," "Party," "Romance," etc.), you'll be able to
launch various lighting scenarios with a single button press on an INSTEON controller.
These are elegant features usually found only in systems costing tens of thousands
of dollars and requiring extensive rewiring of your home. All member lights and
appliances can turn on or off instantly, all controlled with one command from one
button. If you want to control multiple scenes from one controller, try the KeypadLinc
V2 Dimmer.
Status LED
Get a visual indication when ApplianceLinc V2 is sending or receiving INSTEON
or X10 signals. The Status LED is also used for setup programming.
Design Features
Compatibility
The ApplianceLinc V2 On/Off Module is fully INSTEON compatible and X10 ready.
Homeowners with existing X10 networks can easily migrate to an INSTEON network without
having to discard all their existing X10 devices. X10 ready means that the module
can respond to X10 commands from an X10 controller. Please note that INSTEON devices
repeat INSTEON signals but not X10.
Static Memory
All ApplianceLinc V2 settings are stored in static memory and are not lost during
power failures. Additionally, in the event of a power loss, the ApplianceLinc V2
On/Off Module will return the appliance to its last on/off state when power is restored.
Certifications and Warranty
All ApplianceLinc V2 products are safety approved. The factory for SmartLabs
Design Products is ISO9002 certified. In order to meet the ISO 9002 standards, the
entire factory underwent rigorous inspections of procedures and policies before
being certified. The certification received was based on its dedication to high-quality
management systems and strict adherence of quality control systems and guidelines.
Because of this, Smarthome stands behind the entire ApplianceLinc V2 line of products
with a full 2-year warranty.
