Setup and Installation
Follow these steps to install your Retoo Wireless Switch. Ensure the main power supply is OFF before proceeding.
- Prepare for Installation: Turn off the power to the circuit where you intend to install the wireless switch at your main electrical panel. Verify that the power is off using a voltage tester.
- Identify Wiring: The wireless controller (receiver unit) has several wires. Typically, the black and red wires are for the 12V DC power input, and the remaining wires (e.g., blue) are for the switched output to your lighting or appliance. Refer to the diagram below for typical wiring.
- Connect Power Input: Connect the 12V DC power supply to the designated input wires of the receiver unit. Typically, the black wire is for ground (negative) and the red wire is for DC positive.
- Connect Load Output: Connect the output wires from the receiver unit to your lighting fixture or appliance. Ensure these connections are secure.
- Mount the Receiver: The compact design of the receiver allows it to be hidden behind existing switches or within junction boxes.
- Install Remote Battery: Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote control and insert one 12V 23A battery (not included), ensuring correct polarity.
- Restore Power: Once all connections are made and secured, restore power to the circuit from your main electrical panel.
