INSTEON®Mini Remote – 4 Scene
Model: 2342-232/2444A2WH4 2342-432, 2342-532
Getting Started
Fully charge Mini Remote prior to programming (or anytime the unit is not
responding) using a Type A to Micro-B USB cable (sold separately). The red
Charging LED will turn off once the battery is fully charged (approximately one
hour). Slide the power switch to the ON position.
Note: Mini Remote requires an INSTEON dual-band or RF device to
communicate with other devices on your INSTEON network.
Mini Remote uses a subtle beeper sound to assist setup. It is recommended that
you program the unit in a quiet area.

Using Mini Remote
Mini Remote contains four on/off button pairs (a-d). Each pair controls its own scene, sending commands to devices linked
specifically to that on/off button pair. Dimmable responders may behave differently if you tap, double-tap or press and hold a
button to activate/deactivate a scene. Non-dimming responders will only turn full-on or full-off, no matter what method you use.

Getting Started
Fully charge your Mini Remote prior to programming or anytime the unit is not responding. Mini Remote
charges via a USB cable (Type A to Micro-B, sold separately). The red charging LED will turn off once the
battery has been fully charged (approximately 1 hour). To turn on Mini Remote, simply slide the power
switch to the on position.
Note: Mini Remote uses a subtle beeper sound to assist setup. It is recommended that you program the
unit in a quiet area.
Scenes
Scene: One or more INSTEON devices which respond to an INSTEON controller. When the scene is
activated (turned “on”), all devices return to the states they were at when the scene was programmed.
INSTEON scenes let you activate dramatic lighting moods at the touch of a button. For example, you can
set all the lights in a scene to dim to 50% or turn certain lights on while turning others off, all with the tap
of a button on any INSTEON Controller. INSTEON scenes are easy to set up, just follow the directions
below.
Maximum number of scenes in Mini Remote Keypad: 8 (Default is 4)
Scene Control Functions supported; On, Off, Press & hold Bright, Press & hold Dim, Double-tap Fast On
and Double-tap Fast Off.
Make Mini Remote (Button) a Controller
Follow the steps below to control a scene (one or more INSTEON devices).
1) Tap the Mini Remote scene button of choice (on or off buttons will both work)
2) Adjust the scene responder to the “state” you want when the scene is activated from Mini Remote
(e.g., 50%, 25% or even OFF)1
3) Press & hold Mini Remote’s Set button until Mini Remote beeps
Mini Remote’s LED will blink green
4) Press & hold the responder’s Set button until it beeps (or until its LED/load flashes)
Mini Remote will double-beep and its LED will stop blinking
Responder’s LED will stop blinking (it may also double-beep)
5) Confirm that scene addition was successful by tapping on/off on your chosen Mini Remote button
The Responder will toggle between the scene on level and off
6) If you wish to add more responders to Mini Remote, repeat steps 1-5 for each additional scene
responder (or see Add Multiple Responders to a scene)
1If the Responder is a multi-scene device such as a KeypadLinc, tap the scene button you wish to control until its LED is in the desired state (on or off)
Remove Mini Remote (Button) as a Controller
If you are no longer going to use an INSTEON responder that is a scene responder of Mini Remote, it is
very important that you remove its scene membership. Otherwise, Mini Remote will retry every scene
command repetitively, thus creating delays and shortening battery life.
