442 July 15,04_web.qxd 7/15/2004 10:59 AM Page 2 Congratulations! Thanks for purchasing and installing the AccessLinc™ for InsteonTM products. This simple, plug-in device is designed to bridge Insteon signals between the AC powerline and wireless devices. By plugging in a single AccessLinc, Insteon signals can be easily bridged (or converted) between wireless radio frequencies (RF) and powerline signals.

2442 July 15,04_web.qxd 7/15/2004 10:59 AM Page 4 Installing AccessLinc AccessLinc Interfaces can be easily installed in any home with conventional 3-prong AC outlets. • When a single AccessLinc is installed, it functions independently by simply providing a bridge between wireless and powerline devices. • When two units are used and installed on different electrical phases, the AccessLinc Interfaces will provide signal bridging.
2442 July 15,04_web.qxd 7/15/2004 10:59 AM Page 5 Ideas for Selecting the Placement of AccessLinc Interfaces When two AccessLinc interfaces are installed, in addition to bridging between powerline and wireless devices, they will also provide a path for the powerline Insteon signals to travel between the two lines of electrical service found in most homes.
2442 July 15,04_web.qxd 7/15/2004 10:59 AM Page 6 Tips for Using AccessLinc • Do not plug AccessLinc into a power strip or AC line filter. • Some computers, audio-video products, and their accessories can absorb Power Line Carrier (PLC) signals off the power lines. If the AccessLinc is electrically near these devices, they should be filtered. Use Smarthome’s FilterLinc #1626 on this equipment to keep the Insteon powerline signals from getting absorbed.
