o the lights, lock your doors, close the garage door, and set the
thermostat to the desired temperature in just one step.

To control this HomeKit-enabled accessory, iOS 9.3 or later is re-

i

commended.

Controlling this HomeKit-enabled accessory automatically and
away from home requires an Apple TV with tvOS 9.2 or later or

Power consumption monitoring:

The Single Switch measures current active power consumption and
reports it to your iOS device.

New power consumption report is sent:

• if current power changed by at least 20% compared to last
reported,

• if current power changed by at least 200W compared to last
reported,

• once every hour,

• after turning on/o.

Energy consumption monitoring:

The Single Switch measures cumulative energy consumption and re­ports it to your iOS device.

New energy consumption report is sent:

• if aggregate energy consumption changed by at least 0.1kWh
compared to last reported,

• once every hour.

NOTE

i

Power consumption
reports are sent not
more frequently than
every 10 seconds.

NOTE

i

Status fault values
may be combined, e.g.
1+2=3 means over­heat and overload oc­cured.

WARNING!

!

Danger of electro­cution, take precau­tions to avoid electric
shock!

Malfunction detection:

The Single Switch detects some malfunctions and reports them to
your iOS device.

Every malfunction is sent using Status Fault with code assigned to
every event:

1 – overheat - device detected excessive heat and will turn o

2 – overload - device detected excessive electrical current and will turn o

4 – relay contacts sticked - control over device relays is lost

8 – no communication with power metering module, device will turn o

Maintenance load controlling:

The Single Switch can turn on and o connected loads even if is not
paired or connected to an external switch (e.g. to test its operation).
To change state of the device to opposite one:

1. Open the wall switch box.

2. Press and hold the button.

3. Wait for the LED indicator to glow white.

4. Release the button.

5. Click the button to conrm.

Button

6. As long as LED is lit, clicking button will turn on/o the connected
device.

7. Maintenance control will be disabled after 5 seconds of inactivity.

Device identication:

The Single Switch can identify itself if you are not sure which device
you are currently controlling. When you ask the device to identify it­self via HomeKit-compatible app it will:

• triple blink blue 3 times with the built-in LED,

• change state of the device to opposite one for approx. 5 seconds
(only if paired with HomeKit network).

FUNCTIONALITY

#7: Congurable parameters

1. Type of connected switch

This parameter allows to select type of wall switch connected to the
device.

Available settings: 0 – momentary switch

1 – toggle switch (contact closed - ON, contact
opened - OFF)

2 – toggle switch (device changes status when
switch changes status)

Default setting: 1 (toggle switch - synced)

11

2. Restore state after power failure

This parameter determines if the device will return to state prior to
the power failure after power is restored.

Available settings: 0 – the device does not save the state prior to

the power failure and sets „o” position

1 – the device does not save the state prior to
the power failure and sets „on” position

2 – the device restores its state prior to the
power failure

Default setting: 2 (state is restored)

NOTE

i

If parameter 1 is set to
1, parameter 2 is irrel­evant and device state
is always the same as
switch state.
