Section 5: Using the Pocket Programmer (sold separately)
If you plan to do multiple installations, we highly recommend you purchase a
Pocket Programmer (Model # UPP-20). The Pocket Programmer is a very
powerful and simple tool for the dealer or installer.
1. Network ID. Each device in the pre-configured series has the same network ID
(250). The Pocket Programmer can be used to change the network ID in the pre-
configured series to provide a unique ID for each installation, an important security
feature. This will also prevent potential 'cross-chatter' with a neighbor’s lighting
system.
2. Links. Each input has a defined link. Input 1 has been assigned link 66 (on/off
for one device), Input 2 has been assigned link 65 (blinking on/off for all devices),
Input 3 has been assigned link 64 (on/off for all devices). All pre-
configured accessory dimmers and lamp modules will automatically work
with Inputs 2 and 3.
3. Testing Signal Strength and Noise. In some cases, there may be noise (interference) issues
on the powerline from other electrical devices in the home that might interfere with the operation
of the lighting system. You can quickly test for any noise on your system by doing a noise check.
4. Computer Interface Module. The Pocket Programmer can be used as a computer interface
module with your PC using a serial connection. With UPStart software (available at
http://www.simply-automated.com/products/sa_upstart.htm), you have a powerful tool for custom
installations.

Phase Coupler: If you have tested the rockers for each dimmer, they work, but the buttons do
not turn on all three dimmers, the circuits in your home may be out of phase. All homes have a
220V feed to the main panel box, where the 220V is separated into 110V in two phases, an A and
B. You will need to install a phase coupler, see
http://simply-
automated.com/products/sa_zpc.htm for more details.
