Pack Contents:

• Connected switch (with dimmer option) + bleeder
• Site protection

The site protection component operates on frequency bands: 2.4 - 2.4835 GHz with a power level: < 100 mW.

Characteristics

In default mode (on/off), this switch is compatible with various bulb types. For dimmer operation, specific bulb types are required.

Note: For comfortable lighting, a maximum of 10 bulbs per circuit is recommended, using bulbs of the same type and manufacturer.

Compatibility Warning: Product is NOT COMPATIBLE with ferromagnetic transformers, which may cause product breaking.

Dimmer Mode Operation: When activated via the App, this switch functions only with dimmable bulbs, identifiable by the [Dimmable] logo on packaging.

Bleeder Requirements

The bleeder (ref 040149) must be used systematically to avoid flash ghost effects when the load is OFF.

Bleeder Specifications:

• Voltage: 110-240 V~
• Frequency: 50/60 Hz
• Current: 11 mA max.
• Temperature Range: -5°C to +55°C

Usage: Only one bleeder is required per circuit.

Before Starting: Wiring Precautions

If planning to install two-way light switches or switched power outlets, read the following precautions:

To control a light with two or more switches, only use the following product combinations:

• Scenario 1: Connected switch (with dimmer option) + bleeder (x1)
• Scenario 2: Wireless light switches for all other controls (not included in this pack).

Important: Do not use two connected switches (with dimmer option) to control the same lighting point.

Mandatory Safety Precautions

1. OFF

   Switch off the power at the main circuit breaker.

2. Make sure that the power is off before continuing with the installation.

Wiring Details

Wire Identification:

• N (neutral) = blue wire
• L (Live) = all wires except blue and green/yellow
• Earth = green/yellow wire

To ensure correct operation of the connected switch (with dimmer option), the bleeder must be wired as close to the load as possible. A bulb should be inserted before turning the power on.

The connected switch (with dimmer option) works with standard bulbs or dimmable bulbs, including LEDs over 5 W. Using dimmable LEDs is mandatory when dimmer mode is activated.

Existing Wiring Scenarios

Replacement of an existing 2-way switch by a connected switch + wireless light switch

This scenario involves replacing a previous 2-way switch with a wireless light switch, and connecting the wired connected switch.

Use a connector to join all 3 wires together (travellers 1 and 2, and lamp return wire). Use a dedicated connector to insulate the neutral wire, if present.

Replacement of a 2-way switch by a connected switch + mechanical push-button

This scenario involves replacing a previous 2-way switch with a mechanical push-button, and connecting the wired connected switch.

Option: Control through mechanical push buttons (maximum of 2). The maximum cable length for push buttons is 50 m.
