Before Installation
CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
Read and understand these instructions before installing and retain them for future reference.
This product is intended for installation in accordance with the National Electric Code and local regulations in the United States or
the Canadian Electrical Code and local regulations in Canada. Use indoors only.
This product is not designed or approved for use on power lines other than 100-240VAC,50Hz or 60Hz, single phase. Attempting
to use this product on non-approved power lines may have hazardous consequences.
- Use only indoors or in outdoor rated box
- Be sure that you have turned off the circuit breaker or removed the fuse for the circuit you are installing this product into.
Installing this product with the power on will expose you to dangerous voltages.
- Connect using only copper or copper-clad wire
- This product may feel warm during operation. The amount of heat generated is within approved limits and poses no
hazards. To minimize heat buildup, ensure the area surrounding this product is as clear of clutter as possible.
- Each INSTEON product is assigned a unique INSTEON I.D., which is printed on the product’s l abel.
- To reduce the risk of overheating and possible damage to other equipment, do not use this product to control loads in
excess of the specified maximum(s) or, install in locations with electricity specific ati ons which are outside of the product’ s
specifications. If this device supports dimming, please note that dimming an inductive load, such as a fan or transformer,
could cause damage to the dimmer, the load bearing device, or both. If the manufacturer of the load device does not

electrical circuitry, you should have a qualified electrician install the product for you.
Identifying the Electrical Wires in Your Home (North America only)
- Line: usually black (may also be called hot, li ve or power), carries 100-240VAC electricity into the wall box
- Neutral: usually white or white wire bundle, commonly daisy-chained from box to box
- Load: usually black, from a separate cable jacket
- Ground: bare copper wire or metal fixture (if grounded)
Identifying the Electrical Wires in Your Home (Europe/Australia/New Zealand)
- As wire colors vary from country to country, make sure you always check your electrical wires with a voltage meter to
correctly identify line, load, neutral and ground wires
- If you have any questions, consult an electrician or your electricity supplier to learn more about your country’s wiring colors
and labels
IMPORTANT!
If you have any difficulties or questions, consult an electrician. If you are not knowledgeable about, and comfortable with,
Identify Switch Type
Before you install Micro module behind a switch, you must determine which switch operation mode applies to your
switch—latching, single momentary or dual momentary—as each is wired differently:
• Latching (default mode): Switch has no central position. It can be tapped on both the top and bottom and
remains in that state once released.
• Single momentary: Switch can only be tapped in one location. It returns to central position once released.
• Dual momentary: Switch can be tapped on both the top and bottom. It returns to central position once
released.
Once you have identified your switch type, install Micro module according to the corresponding wiring diagram, then
see “Switch Operation Mode” to program Micro module for your specific switch type.
Note: If you are installing Micro module behind a wall outlet or in a fixture, switch operation mode does not apply.

Installation
1) Write down the INSTEON ID found on the back of the unit (XX.XX.XX)
2) Turn off breaker/fuse and verify that the power is off
3) Disconnect wires from existing switch, fixture or outlet and prep all wires to
be connected to Micro module, with 3/16” (5mm) of bare wire on the ends
4) Connect wires per diagram which corresponds to your installation
Note: sense lines carry very low current (~0.35mA 240V, ~0.17mA for 120V)
5) After ensuring wires are firmly connected and that there is no exposed wire, turn on breaker/fuse
After a few seconds, Micro module LED will turn green
6) Test by tapping Micro module up/down buttons
Motor will respond accordingly
Micro Module LED will turn green when motor is moving up/open and stay green until the down button is pressed
Micro Module LED will turn red when motor is moving down/closed and stay red until the up button is pressed
7) If installing a single momentary or dual momentary switch
a) Press and hold set button until it beeps
LED will start blinking green
b) Press and hold set button until it beeps a second time
LED will start blinking red
c) Press and hold set button until it beeps a third time
LED will start blinking green
d) Perform the step that applies
• For single momentary: slowly tap set button four times
LED will continue blinking green
• For dual momentary: slowly tap set button five times
LED will start double-blinking green
• To switch back to latching: slowly tap set button six times
LED will start blinking green
e) Once the mode is selected, press and hold set button until it double-beeps
LED will stop blinking and turn green if motor is up/open or red if motor is down/closed

Switch Operation Mode
By default, Micro module is programmed for a latching switch. Program the switch operation for single momentary
mode, dual momentary mode or back to latching mode according to your switch type. These settings can also be
configured remotely via software (sold separately).
To determine Micro module’s current switch operation mode, simply tap Set button:
• If it beeps, Micro module is configured for a single momentary switch
• If it double-beeps, Micro module is configured for a dual momentary switch
• If it triple-beeps, Micro module is configured for a latching switch (default)
Change to Single Momentary Mode

2) Press and hold Set button until it beeps again
LED will start blinking red
3) Press and hold Set button until it beeps a third time
LED will start blinking green
4) Slowly tap Set button four times
LED will continue blinking green
5) Press and hold Set button until it double-beeps
LED will stop blinking
6) Test mode change by tapping switch on and off
Load will respond appropriately
Change to Dual Momentary Mode
