INSTEON Setup
Some products have subtle differences in their setup procedures. Where necessary, please refer to the
other device’s owner’s manual for details.
INSTEON Controller s, R es pon der s and Li nk s
Let’s define a few terms.
• Each INSTEON compatible product is called a device
• The INSTEON “transmitter” is called a controller
• The INSTEON “receiver” is called a responder
The association between the controller and responder is called a link
Note that a link is one way. If you wish to have control “the other way,” simply add a link “the other way.”
Add Leak Sensor to INSTEON Hub
1) Open INSTEON App on smartphone/tablet
and follow onscreen instructions to set up
Leak Sensor
Make Leak Sensor a Controller
Follow the steps below to link Leak Sensor as a controller of another INSTEON device. The linked device
will respond when Leak Sensor detects moisture.

green.
2) Place Leak Sensor on floor in desired location.
3) Adjust responder to desired brightness/state
