Factory Reset of Outlet

Featured Replies

Posted

Hi folks,

 

Is there any easier way to perform a factory reset on a 2663 Insteon outlet than the procedure described in the manual? (Kill power on the circuit, hold the reset button, restore power while holding the button)

 

I suspect there isn't, but I figured if anyone knew a shortcut it would be you guys.

 

Thanks!

There's this from the full manual:

If the placement of OutletLinc makes the first method too difficult, try manually resetting the unit with the following instructions:

1) If you are using a Controller to control OutletLinc, be sure to Unlink it from the Controller. See Unlinking OutletLinc from an INSTEON Controller.

2) Tap the Set button on OutletLinc until the load is on

3) Press & hold the Set button on OutletLinc for 3 seconds The OutletLinc Status LED will begin blinking

4) Wait 3 seconds and then tap the Set button on OutletLinc five times quickly The OutletLinc Status LED and the load will turn off

5) Immediately after the LED turns off, press & hold the button for 3 seconds and then release The OutletLinc Status LED will flash once and then turn off A few seconds later, the Status LED will turn on solid

 

Not sure if it works on this model or not. Its annoying, but less annoying than cutting the breaker and worth a try.

Thanks Paul.

 

I gave your technique a shot but unfortunately it didn't work.

 

I ended up enlisting my wife as my assistant to reset the outlets as I flipped breakers.  It was a team-building experience...
