4. Operating Instructions

The Smart Button supports three types of press actions, each configurable to trigger different smart scenes or control devices through your smart home app:

  • Single Press: A quick, momentary press of the button.
  • Double Press: Two quick, consecutive presses of the button.
  • Long Press: Press and hold the button for more than 3 seconds.

Each button operation will cause the indicator light to flash once.

4.1. Creating Smart Scenes

To utilize the Smart Button, you need to create automation rules or scenes within your smart home application (e.g., Ewelink App). These scenes link a button action to a desired outcome, such as turning lights on/off, adjusting thermostats, or activating an 'away mode'.

6. Troubleshooting

  • Device not responding: Check if the battery is correctly installed and has sufficient charge. Ensure the device is within range of the Zigbee gateway.
  • Cannot pair with gateway: Make sure the gateway is in pairing mode. Try resetting the Smart Button by removing and reinserting the battery, then attempt pairing again. Ensure you are holding the button for the required 10 seconds during pairing.
  • Scenes not activating: Verify that the scenes are correctly configured in your smart home app and that the linked devices are online and functional.
