7. Operation Instructions

7.1 Initial Setup with Tuya Smart App

1. Download and Open App: Open the 'Tuya Smart App' on your mobile device.
2. Add Gateway: On the app's home page, select the '+' icon in the upper right corner to add a device. Manually add your wired Zigbee gateway or scan the QR code to bind it. The app interface will display 'Multi-function central control' or 'wired gateway' once successfully bound.
3. Enter Network Mode: Power on the X3-Dimming switch. The knob light will illuminate. Long press any button on the panel for 5 seconds until the indicator white light flashes. This indicates the device has entered network pairing mode.
4. Search and Add Device: The gateway will automatically search for and connect to the X3-Dimming switch. Once successfully added, you can customize the switch name (e.g., 'Living Room Dimmer Switch') within the app.

   

5. Control Sub-devices: After entering the 'Composite Dimmer Switch' interface in the app, the knob control will adjust the light. You may need to click on a group to add spotlights and save the spotlight group for control.

7.2 Panel Operation

• Knob Adjustment: Rotate the central knob to adjust the brightness and color temperature of connected lights.
• Button 1 (Power): Press to turn connected lights On or Off.
• Button 2 (C/W): Press to switch between brightness adjustment mode and color temperature adjustment mode. The backlight will flash white three times to confirm the switch.
• Buttons 3 & 4 (L1/L2 / Scene): These buttons function as local L1 and L2 firewire control switches by default. If configured in the Tuya Smart App, they can also act as scene touch switches to activate pre-set lighting scenes.

8. Troubleshooting

• Device not responding: Check power supply to the switch. Ensure the main power is on. Verify wiring connections are secure.
• Cannot connect to App: Ensure your Zigbee gateway is properly set up and connected to your home network. Confirm the X3-Dimming switch is in network pairing mode (white light flashing). Check that the switch is within range of the Zigbee gateway.
• Lights not dimming/changing color temperature: Ensure the connected lights are dimmable and support color temperature adjustment. Verify the switch is in the correct adjustment mode (brightness or color temperature) using Button 2.
• Scene buttons not working: Confirm that scenes have been properly configured and assigned to Buttons 3 and 4 within the Tuya Smart App.
• Intermittent connectivity: Check for potential interference with the 2.4G frequency band. Ensure the Zigbee gateway is not obstructed and is placed centrally.

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your X3-Dimming smart switch, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Gently wipe the surface of the panel with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish and electronic components.
• Avoid Liquids: Prevent any liquids from entering the switch housing. If liquid spills occur, immediately disconnect power and allow the device to dry completely before re-applying power.
• Environmental Conditions: Operate the device within the specified temperature and humidity ranges (0°C~40°C, 5%~90%RH non-condensing) to prevent damage.
