Overview
Installation
NOTE: It is important to install this product in accordance with the following
instructions. Failure to do so may void your warranty.
LightwaveRF is fully legal to install in your own home. However, if in doubt,
always consult a qualified electrician.

Installation
Mounting to the wall
The following installation
instructions illustrate how to remove
the Wire-free Switch faceplate and
surround in order to screw the unit
to a back-box. The unit does not
have to be screw mounted and may
instead be attached using the
adhesive strips provided. These
should be attached to the rear of the
surround rather than the centre of
the switch so that the centre can
easily be removed to gain access to
the battery compartment.
1. Gently remove the faceplate by
inserting a screwdriver into the slot
on the base and lifting away from
the unit as shown.
Installation
2. Insert the screwdriver under
the tab situated at the bottom of
the main switch as show. Gently
remove the central section from
the surround.
3. Insert suitable screws into the
mounting holes and screw to the
back box. Alternatively, place
the adhesive strips along the
rear sides of the surround and
attach to the wall.
Installation
4. Replace the centre switch
unit and clip the faceplate back
into place. Make sure that the
faceplate hooks in from the top
as shown. A sharp click will
indicate that the plate has been
successfully replaced.
Changing the Battery
The battery compartment is
accessed from the rear of the
switch. If the switch is wall
mounted, the compartment can
be accessed by removing the
central section as previously
described. A CR2032 standard
coin cell battery is required to
power the unit.
Installation
• Tap the ‘on’ button to switch on linked
LightwaveRF devices (Blue LED indicator
will illuminate). Hold the button to raise
the dim level of dimmable devices.
• Tap the ‘o’ button to switch o linked
LightwaveRF devices (Blue LED indicator
will illuminate). Hold the button to lower
the dim level of dimmable devices.
Operation & setup
Manual operation
Linking the switch to a
LightwaveRF device
1.
Place the LightwaveRF device that you
wish to control in ‘linking’ mode. For
information on how to do this please refer
to the instruction manual for that specific
LightwaveRF device.
Device setup
2. Whilst the LightwaveRF device is in
linking mode, tap a button on the
Wire-free Switch. The indicator light on
the target device will flash to confirm that
the switch is now linked. This process can
be repeated to control multiple
LightwaveRF devices from one switch.
Unlinking the switch from a
LightwaveRF device
1.
Place the LightwaveRF device that you
wish to remove in ‘linking mode’. For
information on how to do this, please
refer to the instruction manual for that
specific LightwaveRF device.
2. Whilst the LightwaveRF device is in
linking mode, tap a button on the
Wire-free Switch. The LED light on the
target device will flash to confirm that the
switch and device are unlinked.
Device setup
1. (Easy): Group standby / dimming control
Required: Wire-free Switch / Plug-in Sockets
A Wire-free Switch can be used to control any number of LightwaveRF
sockets, dimmers, plug-in sockets and plug-in dimmers. This means you can
now dim all of your lounge lamps and main light from one attractive, wall
mounted switch! You can even turn o any ‘standby’ devices (TV, Freeview
box, DVD player, blue-Ray player etc.) that can be plugged into any
LightwaveRF socket from one convenient place. This can also be more
practical than a remote control as the switch will never go missing!
Creative ideas
2. (Intermediate): Bedside light-switches
Required: Wire-free Switches, dimmer, plug-in sockets
Installing extra light-switches in a room can be messy, time consuming and
costly due to the cabling involved. However, if you swap your existing main
light-switch for a LightwaveRF one, adding extra switches is easy because
you can use a Wire-free Switch to avoid any extra cabling. For instance, a
bedside 2-gang Wire-free can wirelessly communicate with the main light
and with a bedside lamp plugged into a LightwaveRF Plug-in Socket. Best of
all, these switches can be attached anywhere - even to the bed-head itself!
Creative ideas
Problem: The switch won’t transmit and the LED does not light up.
Solution: Change the switch battery. A strong battery signal is indicated by
the LED light on the switch illuminating and remaining lit for 1-2 seconds
after tapping the ‘on’ button. A low battery is indicated if the LED light turns
o immediately, or does not illuminate at all.
Problem: The Wire-free Switch will not link to/operate the target device.
Solution: Check the switch battery strength: if the battery strength is low, it
will not produce enough power to drive the RF radio signal. Tap the ‘on’
button on the switch to transmit a signal. A strong battery signal is indicated
by the LED light on the switch remaining lit for 1-2 seconds after releasing the
button. A low battery is indicated if the LED light turns o immediately. If this
happens, please replace the battery.
Problem: The Wire-free Switch will not work consistently.
Solution: The Wire-free Switch may be encountering interference or may
be at the edge of its reliable range of operation. First, ensure that there are
no large pieces of metal, very thick walls or bodies of water in the path of the
transmission. If the problem persists, try moving the switch closer to the
socket, or consider using a LightwaveRF Signal Booster to extend the range
by relaying the signal between the switch and target device.
Troubleshooting
Q. How long does the Wire-free Switch battery last?
A. This depends on use, but 2 years is a reliable average.
Q. How do I know if the battery needs changing?
A. A strong battery signal is indicated by the indicator LED illuminating and
remaining lit for 1-2 seconds after tapping the ‘on’ button. A low battery is
indicated if the LED light turns o immediately, or does not illuminate at all.
Q. Can I control multiple devices with one Wire-free Switch?
A. Yes you can link as many LightwaveRF receiver devices (such as
dimmers and sockets) as you wish to the same Wire-free Switch.
Q. How many devices can I have on the LightwaveRF system?
A. Each receiver device (such as a dimmer or socket) has 6 memory slots
for up 6 controllers (such as a Wire-free Switch). Note: The Lightwave Link
allows a number of dierent smartphones to control the socket
independently, however it only uses one memory slot.
Q. How do I know that the switch will fit my back-box?
A. The Wire-free Switch will screw any standard single back-boxes.
Q. Is it legal for me to install LightwaveRF devices myself?
A. Yes, LightwaveRF products are fully legal to install in your own home.
