1.0 INTRODUCTION

Installing a Home Automation solution is as easy as 1-2-3 with this Home Autom ation Switch and your Apple iPhone® or iPad®!
This switch uses Bluetooth™ technology to allow for remote control of the device using the free app and your iPhone or iPad. This provides for three valuable functions:
1. Remote Control - You can turn the switch on or off using the app. This prevents you from having to bend over to reach the wall outlet to turn it on or off manually.
2. Multiple Timers - You can use the iPhone app to set multiple timers for control of the power outlet. You can maintain multiple timers, which allows for a more complex timer operations that can vary from day to day.
3. Full Automation - The switch uses the Near Field Communications standard to allow for full automation of power outlet. By pairing your iPhone or iPad with the switch, you can automatically power devices on or off based on the proximit y of your phone or tablet to the switch. You can use the app to fine tune the proximity range so the right devices turn on or off as you move through your home.
