Can this be programmed to convert two unconnected standard switches to work as a 3 way switch? I have a light and an unused second switch.

No, this 3-way still has to be wired.it replaces a standard 3-way setup. the includes a z-wave switch, and a secondary switch/signaler. when using a GE- jasco switch in a 3-way, you cannot use a regular switch, or another ge/jasco z-wave switch for a 3-way. You can only use a switch, and a secondary, signaler. They do not communicate wirelessly to each other, they still use a traveler wire to function.

The short answer is no. Three way switches need three wires (black, white, and red) connecting the two switches. Consult a book on general house wiring for details. The GE switch can be wired to a single light for dimming.

It should. This switch is designed for a 3-way switch, which in spite of the name means that the light is controlled by two different switches. Your switch is evidently a single pole, that is, that one switch controls the light. You can probably buy a less expensive timer for that purpose, one designed for a single pole.

i am not sure.i think for 3way switch need different model # EJ500 timer.pl. check with manufracturer.

No. I have mine hooked up to three outside lights on my detached garage but all on the same circuit. Look at this as a replacement for a regular light switch, but with remote capabilities. The work around would require you to put all of these lights on the same circuit if you wanted to use the same switch. I don't know that there is any product out there that will work with multiple circuits.

It should as it is a 3 to 1 switch. Unfortunately I don't have a way to test that configuration.

Yes and no, you can set up up as a 3 or more way switch but you need a insteon switch or keypad at each location. You can not use the insteon switch with a standard switch in a 3 way configuration.

you just need to replace one but need to modify the second (conventional) switch. see my video diy for reference. I hope this helps

I don't think this will work for you. There is only one control switch, so I can't see it working for you

I'm almost sure that the 3 way masters work without the second switch hooked up to it. I think it's the secondary switches that don't work without the master but I am honestly not 100% sure on either point.

Im pretty sure you can.. I have a 4 way splitter with on/off switches to control my lights.

Well No, You cant ... I had a dual switch as well that controlled 2 different lighting, and I ordered this one and tried and it does not work. I dont think there is anything out there for dual switch. Also for zwave to work you need to have reciever like Vera etc...I am not sure if you have that.Hope that helps.

Yes, I used these to replace a few non-switched units. When you install them you will leave the switch that is on the fixture on, and use your light switch as normal.

You require a three-pole switch. If it doesn't say "three-pole" it won't work for your use.

Not really sure but the switch seems to work through the lamps grounding system so maybe. Best to ask an electrician tho.

No, you cannot use this in a 3-way switch and keep the functionality of the other switch. You could use it with the other 3-way switch, but you'd have to always keep that switch in one certain position. I'd suggest doing some Bing searches on how 3-way switches work.It would be possible to re-wire it, and remove the other switch.

Yes you should be able to use a 3 way, but I never tried. This turns a normal lamp into a dimmable lamp. I have several and LOVE them. Even the fact that you can place the control where you want it make a difference. No more reaching up into the lamp to turn it on.

the quick answer is yes you can.Since the wall switch is also a scene controller you can program it to run a scene that has nothing to do with either of the two load switches.Therefore you can program the wall switch with two independent scenes that are controlled by the push of the switchs and have the ability to remotely control the two independent loads.Another way to put it, this device will show up as a two button scene controller and two switch modules once you properly include them into your network.
