• Device Output: Connect the Line (L) and Neutral (N) wires of your device (e.g., curtain motor) to the output 'L' and 'N' terminals on the controller. The maximum current is 2A.
• Switch Inputs (Optional): The 'S1' and 'S2' terminals are for connecting external physical switches, allowing manual control in addition to smart control.
• Ground: Ensure proper grounding if your installation requires it.

The remote control requires a 12V LR23A battery (included). Ensure the battery is inserted with the correct polarity.
