Safety Considerations

Lamp Replacement

It is a safety requirement that lighting loads be electrically isolated for relamping. To do this, use the air-gap switch to the right of the adorne device as shown and move the switch upwards. When the LED goes out, the load is safely isolated for relamping. To restore normal operation, move the switch back to the down position.

Dimmer Derating

For multi-gang installations, use pliers to break off the speciﬁed heat sink ﬁns.

De-rate the maximum load according to the following table.

Overload Protection

adorne Wireless Lighting dimmers and switches feature overload and short-circuit protection. In the event of an overload condition, the device will stop working, and the status LED will be rapidly ﬂashing red at 2 Hz. Set the dimmer to off, disconnect loads in excess of the dimmer’s rating, and try again.

Conﬁguring an adorne Wireless Lighting System

In order to function, adorne Wireless Lighting devices have to be “bound” together into a simple wireless network. This is very easy to do, but it helps to understand how and why it works.

1. All adorne Wireless Lighting devices must obtain a unique House ID to prevent interference with neighboring systems.

2. In addition, adorne Wireless Lighting devices may be bound together in GROUPS, usually one or more remote switches & dimmers with a master switch, dimmer, or plug-in module.

3. All adorne Wireless Lighting devices and GROUPS in a room may be bound together with one or more Room Remote Control(s) to provide simple control of multiple recorded lighting scenes.

Every programming process in an adorne Wireless Lighting system consists of placing the devices into a “learn” or “program” mode by pressing and holding the on/off button. Once this has been done, any conﬁguration, from establishing a House ID to creating GROUPS, is accomplished by pressing the buttons on the faces of the devices.

Programming Example: Setting a unique HOUSE ID in a new installation

1. First make sure all status LEDs on all devices are solid AMBER.

2. Press the on/off button of any switch or dimmer for ﬁve seconds. Its status LED will ﬂash AMBER, and all other devices’ status LEDs will ﬂash GREEN.

3. Press the on/off button of the same switch or dimmer that is ﬂashing amber for another ﬁve seconds. All status LEDs will ﬂash GREEN for two seconds and then turn solid WHITE.

GROUP Level Control

A GROUP is two or more devices bound together so that each device controls itself and other devices in the same way. For example, double-tapping the on/off button will turn all devices on.

A GROUP usually comprises a master switch or dimmer with one or more remote switches and dimmers. GROUPs may also contain multiple master switches or dimmers, such as in a large area lit by several ceiling downlights.

ROOM and HOUSE level devices (i.e., remote controls and repeaters) cannot be included in GROUPs.

Like all adorne Wireless Lighting system elements, all GROUP members must ﬁrst be bound to the same house ID. GROUPS may be included in ROOMS, but they may also stand alone. adorne Wireless Lighting GROUPS are commonly used as a substitute for a four-way circuit with multiple control points, particularly in retroﬁts where adding wiring may be an issue.

Please note that when a GROUP is bound into a ROOM, it is not necessary to also bind each GROUP member into the ROOM; one in, all in is the rule.

All three GROUPED devices provide seamless dimming control from three locations.

Note that each device may be fed from a different circuit – even a different phase. adorne Wireless Lighting’s RF communications are independent of AC wiring.

Plug-in lamp modules are often placed behind furniture. GROUPing them with a remote dimmer or switch provides control where you want it. Coordinate control of non-dimmable loads (such as kinetic sculptures and fountains) using Plug-in Appliance Modules.

GROUP Level Control

Creating a New Group

1. Ensure all potential group members’ status LEDs are solid WHITE.

2. Press and hold the on/off button of one device that you want to include in the GROUP until the LED ﬂashes AMBER.

3. For each device that you would like to add to the GROUP, press and hold the on/off button for ﬁve seconds until the LED turns from GREEN to AMBER.

4. Repeat for all devices that you wish to add to the GROUP.

5. Press and hold the ﬁrst item’s on/off button for ﬁve seconds and release.

6. All device LEDs should return to a solid WHITE.

Adding or Removing a Device from a Group

1. Ensure all potential group members’ status LEDs are solid WHITE.

2. Press and hold one device’s on/off button until the LED ﬂashes AMBER.

3. All GROUP members’ LEDS should now be ﬂashing AMBER, while un-included devices’ LEDs should ﬂash GREEN.

Setting Up Remote Controls

A ROOM is a number of adorne Wireless Lighting devices (expect HOUSE level devices or repeaters) bound together under the control of one or more remote controls. Room remote controls allow users to set, modify, and recall up to four lighting scenes. They also enable ROOM on/off and proportionally lower or raise overall room brightness. Any number of room remote controls may be used.

Scenes

A ROOM scene is a conﬁguration of light level information for every adorne Wireless Lighting device bound to the ROOM. ROOM scenes have a default fade time of two seconds. Scene information is stored in the device connected to the load (master dimmers or switches), NOT in the room remote control.

Location

Typically, users place room remote controls on their included cradles at room entrances. They may also wish to lift the room remote control off its cradle for portability.

Setting up a Remote Control

1. Ensure all status LEDs are solid WHITE.

4. Press and hold any item’s on/off button to include it in the GROUP (if it is ﬂashing GREEN) or to remove it from the GROUP (if it is ﬂashing AMBER).

5. Press and hold the ﬁrst item’s on/off button for ﬁve seconds and release.

6. All devices should ﬂash GREEN for two seconds and then turn a solid WHITE.

2. Press and hold the +/- paddle on the remote control for ﬁve seconds and release. The LED should be ﬂashing AMBER.

3. All device LEDs should now be ﬂashing GREEN, unless they have already been bound to the remote control.

4. Press and hold any device’s on/off button to include it in the GROUP (if it is ﬂashing GREEN) or to remove it from the GROUP (if it is ﬂashing AMBER).

5. Please note - if you have bound one device from a GROUP to the remote, then all GROUP members will be bound to the remote.

6. Press and hold the remote’s +/- paddle for ﬁve seconds and release.

7. All devices should ﬂash GREEN for two seconds and then turn a solid WHITE.

SETTING UP A WHOLE-HOUSE REMOTE CONTROLSETTING UP A WHOLE-HOUSE REMOTE CONTROL

HOUSE Level Control

With adorne Wireless Lighting, users can control their entire home with a single touch using HOUSE scenes. Other important HOUSE level functions include occupancy emulation and Panic mode.

House Remote Controls

House remote controls look like room remote controls but include a house icon on the face. Typically, users place house remote controls on their cradles inside exterior doorways and inside the doorway to the garage. They may also wish to lift the house remote control off its cradle for portability, for example at bedside in the master suite.

House Scenes

adorne Wireless Lighting supports up to four HOUSE scenes. Commonly used scenes include:

• Pathway lighting (e.g., from the master bedroom to the kitchen)

• Balanced whole HOUSE look for entertaining, including patio and landscape lighting

• HOUSE sleep scene at night, in which desired general lighting is off and low level pathway lighting is on

• HOUSE off scene when leaving, which can include occupancy emulation (see page 23)

HOUSE Level Control

Creating a New Scene

1. Adjust the light levels throughout the house (or room) to the desired settings for the scene.

2. Press and hold any of the four numbered buttons on the remote for ﬁve seconds and release.

3. The remote’s LED should ﬂash GREEN for two seconds and then turn a solid WHITE.

Removing a Device from a Scene

1. Press and hold the +/- paddle on the remote for ﬁve seconds and release. The LED should be ﬂashing AMBER.

2. All room or house members’ LEDs will now be ﬂashing AMBER.

3. Press and release the desired scene button (1, 2, 3, or 4) on the remote.

4. Press and hold the on/off button on the device you would like to remove. Release after ﬁve seconds. The LED should now be ﬂashing GREEN.

5. Press and hold the +/- paddle on the remote for ﬁve seconds and release.

6. All LEDs should ﬂash GREEN for two seconds and then turn a solid WHITE.

• HOUSE arrival scene in which desired lighting throughout the house is on upon arrival

HOUSE scenes differ from ROOM scenes because:

• They may include any or all adorne Wireless Lighting devices and GROUPS in the house

• They may include a Repeater for occupancy emulation (page 23)

• Every device in the scene must be individually bound to that scene.

Devices may be toggled in and out of a HOUSE scene using a simple binding process.

Four scene buttons may be set up to program and recall up to four scenes.

The paddle offers programmable house on (up) and house off (down) functions.
