4. Installation

Important Safety Information: Before beginning installation, ensure the power to the ceiling fan circuit is turned OFF at the circuit breaker. Consult a qualified electrician if you are unsure about any steps.

  1. Turn off power at the circuit breaker.
  2. Loosen the collar at the ceiling canopy of your fan and slide it down to expose the wiring.
  3. Identify the existing wiring. The receiver requires 2 wires from the ceiling (AC Neutral and AC Live) and 3 wires to the fan (Live to FAN, Live to LIGHT, and Neutral).
  4. Connect the receiver wires according to the wiring diagram below using the provided wire nuts. Ensure all connections are secure.
  5. Carefully tuck the receiver and wires into the fan canopy. The compact design of this receiver (3.0"L x 2.07"W x 1.0"H) is designed to fit most standard fan canopies.
  6. Re-secure the fan canopy.
  7. Restore power at the circuit breaker.

6. Operation

6.1 Remote Control Functions

  • MED / LOW / HI: Adjust fan speed.
  • STOP: Turn off the fan.
  • LIGHT / DIMMER: Turn light ON/OFF. Press and hold to dim the light.
  • 1H / 2H / 4H / 8H: Set a countdown timer for the fan to turn off.

6.2 App Control Functions

Through the Smart Life / Tuya Smart App, you can:

  • Turn the fan ON/OFF and adjust speeds (Low, Medium, High).
  • Turn the light ON/OFF and adjust brightness (dimming).
  • Set schedules and timers for automated operation.
  • Create groups to control multiple smart fans simultaneously.
  • Share device control with family members.

6.3 Voice Control Commands

Once integrated with Alexa or Google Assistant, use commands such as:

  • "Alexa, turn on [Fan Name]."
  • "Hey Google, set [Fan Name] speed to high."
  • "Alexa, dim [Light Name] to 50 percent."
  • "Hey Google, turn off [Light Name]."

7. Troubleshooting

  • Fan/Light not responding: Ensure power is on at the circuit breaker. Check all wire connections. Verify the remote has working batteries. For app control, ensure your Wi-Fi is active and the device is connected.
  • Light not dimming: Confirm that your light bulbs are dimmable LED/CFL, incandescent, or halogen. Non-dimmable LED/CFL bulbs will only support ON/OFF functionality.
  • Receiver not fitting in canopy: While designed to be compact, some older or uniquely designed fan canopies may have limited space. Carefully arrange wires and the receiver. Do not force the receiver into a space that is too small.
  • Difficulty pairing with app: Ensure your smartphone is connected to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network (5GHz networks are not supported for initial pairing). Try cycling power to the fan (turn off/on at the wall switch or breaker) to re-enter pairing mode.
  • Voice control issues: Verify that the Smart Life skill is enabled in your Alexa/Google Home app and your Smart Life account is linked. Try rediscovering devices in your voice assistant app.
