The TriggerLinc is the world's first INSTEON magnetic contact sensor that wirelessly controls lights and appliances throughout your house. When magnetic contact is broken, such as a door or window being opened, TriggerLinc can do things like turn on lights, set your INSTEON enabled thermostat to its comfort setting, or trigger a custom event in Indigo. Gain the peace of mind knowing that you'll be alerted when the back door sneaks ajar or the side window slides open. Useful for doors, windows, drawers, sheds, cabinets, and anything else that opens, TriggerLinc is a wireless, easy-to-use solution for adding convenience and awareness to any INSTEON-controlled home.

How It Works

Out of the box, TriggerLinc is set up to turn on a light, lamp, (or other device) when your door is opened and off when the door is closed. This default setting is great for garage doors, sheds or closets where you want the lights to turn on when the door is opened and you can be sure the lights are off when the door is closed.

TriggerLinc's second setting allows for a more custom type of control: Turn on (or off) one set of lights or devices when the door is opened and turn on (or off) another set of devices when the door is closed. Or, have lights turn on when you open the door, but leave them on when you close it. Or even, have lights turn on to full bright when you open the door, and dim them to 50% when the door is closed. Of course, with Indigo running the show, your reaction options to the TriggerLinc are almost limitless. The TriggerLinc also contains an input for standard security sensors, so you can monitor many doors / windows from a single TriggerLinc.

Requirements

An AA battery is required and included. And, an AccessPoint is required in order to receive the INSTEON RF commands generated from the TriggerLinc; excellent range - up to 150' from nearest Access Point
