layouts and
respective
hand motions

Proximity sensing
(1”, 4” & 6”)
Place hand over
indicator LED at
respective distance for
on. Remove hand for
off.
Slide
Slide finger across the
two indicator LEDs for
on. Slide finger across
in the opposite
direction for off.
Rotary
Rotate finger counter
clockwise around the
three indicator LEDs to
increase brightness.
Rotate finger clockwise
to reduce brightness.
Touch
Tap indicator LED to
turn on/off. Hold finger
down to increase/
decrease brightness.
Wave
Wave hand left- rightleft once for on. Wave
a second time for off.
Ambient Light
Sensor
Ambient light will
increase brightness.
The reduction of
ambient light will
decrease brightness.
