Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I share with family and friends?
Yes, you can share access to your Switch and any other Lumary device. In the Lumary app, press the "Profile" button and click on "Device Sharing" to give or revoke sharing permissions. In order to share, the other user should already have downloaded the Lumary app and registered an account.
Can I group multiple Lumary devices together?
Yes, you can group multiple same-type devices by room, location, or however else you want. The same devices can be in multiple groups. For example, if you create a group for "Bedroom" and another group for "Entire House," your Bedroom lights can be included in both groups. From your main device list, click on one of the devices you want to group, press the "[gear]" button on the top right for advanced settings, and click "Create Group." You'll be able to name a new group and choose which devices you'd like to group together.
How many devices can I control?
Lumary app can control an unlimited amount of devices in an unlimited amount of locations. Your router may have a limit of how many devices can be connected to one router.
My Lumary device has a funny name. How do I rename it?
From your main device list, click on one of the devices you want to rename, press the "[gear]" button on the top right for advanced settings, and click "Modify Device Name" (or "Modify Group Name"). You'll then be able to choose a more familiar name.
What should I do if the device appears offline or is unreachable?
Make sure your Wi-Fi router is online and in range, and check that you have the latest Lumary functionality by clicking "Check for firmware update" in your device settings. If power is connected but the switch is not responding, hold down the Restart button to cycle the fuse and give the switch a jump start.
What's the wireless range?
The range of your home Wi-Fi is heavily dependent on your home router and the conditions of the room. Check with your router specifications for exact range data.
If my Wi-Fi/Internet goes down, will Lumary App still work?
Lumary products need to be connected to Wi-Fi in order to use them remotely.
What does the white light mean?
The white light indicates power. If the white light is on, the switch is receiving power; if it is off, it is not receiving power. The white light also indicates connection. If it is solid, the switch is connected; if it is flashing quickly, the switch is ready to connect using the Easy Mode (page 10); if it is flashing slowly, the switch is ready to connect using the AP Mode (page 12).
