Setting Device to Pairing Mode

If your Lightcloud Blue Surface Mount Downlight is already paired, you can reset it by using the below methods.

Method 1: Delete from App

Open the app and access the device settings for the paired device. Be sure that the downlight is online and select "Delete".

Method 2: Manual

Power the downlight off and on 5 times consecutively. Do not allow less than 5 seconds to elapse from switch off to on, do not allow more than 2 seconds to elapse from switch on to off. The downlight will flash 3 times, then reset to 100% brightness at default CCT. [Lightbulb icon with x5 indicator]
