Hi is there anyway to give an insteon device (inline linc) an x10 address without manually putting the device in linking mode.


thanks
Ron

I would think you can do this with Insteon Explorer. Put the X10 address in the proper field in the Devices tab, and be sure the Write level/Ramp/X10 is checked and click Save (or whatever it is) and that should do it. I don't use any X10 addresses, so I'm not 100% sure.

This is worth a shot...

Quote:
Enable the "Write Level/Ramp/X10" checkbox at the top of the Insteon Explorer. Watch your "Pending Operations" window and you should see the changes queue up very shortly. After they've all been written, go to the switches and pull the airgap. This can be very quick. Just pull the airgap until the LED on the light goes out and then press it back in. Don't go too far and press and hold or you might factory reset your switch. After this step, your switches should have the new local ramprate and level (use this same procedure for setting the X10 address as well).


Since there is no airgap on an In-LineLinc, flipping the breaker may be easier than getting to the wiring.
