Install Insteon Modem
1)    Ensure Insteon Modem is not plugged into your computer
2)    Turn on your computer and wait for the operating system to load,
3)    Plug Insteon Modem into an AC wall outlet
4)    Plug square end of included USB cable into Insteon Modem’s USB jack
5)    Plug rectangular end of cable into an available USB port on your PC
           Your PC will detect new hardware and download the supporting drivers from the Internet.
           You can also visit http://www.insteon.com/support to download the drivers directly
           Insteon Modem is now ready


Tips for Using Insteon Modem
     Do not use a USB cable longer than 10’ (6’ or less is recommended)
     NEVER plug Insteon Modem into a power strip or AC line filter
     Use only one Insteon Modem per computer
     Do not place near large metal objects, such as refrigerators or TVs
     Some computers and their accessories can absorb Insteon Carrier (PLC) signals off the powerlines. Since Insteon Modem will
      be close to the computer, the power strip for the computer should be filtered. Use an Insteon FilterLinc (#1626-10) on the
      computer’s power strip to keep Insteon Modem signals from getting absorbed by the computer equipment
     To reset Insteon Modem to its original factory settings, unplug from wall outlet and wait 10 seconds. Press and hold Set button;
      while continuing to press and hold, plug back in. A long beep will sound; continue holding Set button until beep stops, then
      release.
           After several seconds, status LED will turn on to indicate reset is complete


Use Insteon Modem as a Phase Bridge
1)    Install additional dual-band Insteon devices if they are not already installed
2)    Start Phase Detection Mode by tapping the Set button on Insteon Modem four times quickly
           Insteon Modem will begin beeping and status LED will turn on solid green
3)    Check the LED behavior of the other dual-band devices to see if they are on the opposite phase
           If at least one of the dual-band device LEDs is blinking green or is bright solid white or blue, the device is on the opposite
           phase. Continue on to step 4.
           If none of the dual-band devices exhibit the behavior above, they are on the same electrical phase. Try the following:
                 Follow steps 2 and 3 with the other dual-band devices to see if they are exhibiting the desired LED behavior
                 Move a dual-band device to another location until it exhibits the desired LED behavior
4)    Tap Insteon Modem Set button
           Insteon Modem will stop beeping

Tips for Using Insteon Modem
     Never plug Insteon Modem into a power strip or AC line filter
     Use only one Insteon Modem per computer
     Do not place near large metal objects, such as refrigerators or TVs
     Some computers and their accessories can absorb Powerline Carrier (PLC) signals off the powerlines. Since Insteon Modem
      will be close to the computer, the power strip for the computer should be filtered. Use an Insteon FilterLinc (#1626-10) on the
      computer’s power strip to keep Insteon Modem signals from getting absorbed by the computer equipment
     If computer’s serial port is shared with another hardware device (scanner, PDA, etc.) be sure to turn off that device’s program
      on the PC. If left running, the home automation software will not be able to communicate with Insteon Modem.
