Adjust Local Settings Each of the Keypad buttons is considered a “scene button,” meaning you can use any of the buttons on Keypad to create INSTEON scenes. Each button will control its own scene, only sending commands to devices linked specifically to that button. Dimmable responders may behave differently, depending on whether you tap, double-tap or press and hold a button to activate/deactivate a scene.

Changing Buttons Keypad buttons can be swapped out with custom-etched buttons to customize its appearance. Using a small, flat-edged screwdriver only, carefully pry up on the sides of the keys from the middle of the keypad (when possible). Make sure you are centered on the key so as to catch the small edge located there for this purpose.
