Setup and Installation

  1. Prepare the Lamp Fixture: Ensure the power to your lamp fixture is turned off at the main switch before installation.
  2. Install the Lamp Socket: Screw the LoraTap E27 lamp socket into your existing E27 lamp fixture. Ensure it is securely tightened.
  3. Person screwing a bulb into the LoraTap E27 lamp socket

  4. Install the Bulb: Screw your compatible E27 LED, CFL, or fluorescent bulb into the LoraTap lamp socket.
  5. Power On: Restore power to your lamp fixture.
  6. Remote Control Pairing (Pre-paired): The lamp sockets and remote control are typically pre-paired at the factory. If they are not responding, or if you wish to pair additional remotes/sockets, refer to the "Pairing Instructions" section.
  7. Mount the Remote Control: The remote control features a magnetic base, allowing it to be attached to metallic surfaces. Alternatively, use the included double-sided adhesive to fix the remote's base to a wall or any flat surface. The remote can be detached from its base for portable use.

Operating Instructions

The LoraTap remote control is designed to operate two lamp sockets independently. Each socket corresponds to a specific set of ON/OFF buttons on the remote.

  • Turning On/Off Socket 1: Press the top "ON" button to turn on the first lamp socket. Press the top "OFF" button to turn it off.
  • Turning On/Off Socket 2: Press the bottom "ON" button to turn on the second lamp socket. Press the bottom "OFF" button to turn it off.

Pairing Instructions (If needed)

If a lamp socket does not respond to the remote control, or if you wish to pair a new remote or socket, follow these steps:

  1. Ensure the lamp socket is powered off.
  2. Turn on the lamp socket. Within 5 seconds of powering on, press and hold the desired "ON" button on the remote control for approximately 3 seconds until the connected bulb flashes once. This indicates successful pairing.
  3. To unpair a socket from a remote button, turn on the lamp socket. Within 5 seconds, press and hold the desired "OFF" button on the remote control for approximately 3 seconds until the connected bulb flashes once.

Note on Multi-Control:

  • One remote control can manage up to 20 lamp sockets.
  • One lamp socket can be controlled by up to 5 remote controls.

Compatibility and Usage Notes

  • This product is designed for use with E27 LED, CFL (Compact Fluorescent Lamp), and fluorescent bulbs only.
  • DO NOT use with incandescent, tungsten, or halogen bulbs. Using these types of bulbs will damage the lamp socket and void the warranty.
  • Ensure the total power of the connected bulb does not exceed 30W.
  • The lamp socket adds approximately 4 cm (1.6 inches) to the length of your light fixture. Please verify that your fixture has sufficient space before installation.

Maintenance

  • Cleaning: Wipe the lamp sockets and remote control with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse in water.
  • Battery Replacement: The remote control uses a CR2032 battery with an expected lifespan of over 10 years. When the remote's range decreases or it becomes unresponsive, replace the battery. To replace, gently pry open the remote's casing to access the battery compartment. Ensure correct polarity when inserting the new battery.
  • Storage: Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
