• Wireless Switch Panel: A battery-powered, wall-mountable switch that sends wireless signals to the receiver. It features a two-button design for controlling multiple circuits or for two-way control.
• Glacadair gun uèir: A compact device that connects to your light fixture or appliance and receives signals from the wireless switch to turn the power on or off.

3.2 Meudan agus Ceanglaichean

Figure 3.2: Detailed dimensions of the wireless switch (86x86x14mm) and receiver (39x22x23mm), along with the wiring connections for the receiver (Input Live Line, Input Neutral Line, Output Neutral Line, Output Live Line).

The wireless switch panel measures 86mm x 86mm x 14mm, designed for easy surface mounting. The compact receiver measures 39mm x 22mm x 23mm, allowing it to fit into standard electrical boxes or canopies. The receiver has clearly labeled input and output terminals for live and neutral lines.

3.3 Tar-chur Chomharran

The Thinkbee Wireless Switch utilizes a strong radio frequency signal (433.932 MHz) that can penetrate walls, providing an effective indoor control range of up to 50 meters and an outdoor range of up to 600 meters. This allows for flexible placement of the switch panel anywhere you need it.

4. Setup agus Stàladh

The Thinkbee Wireless Switch Kit is designed for easy installation without the need for new wiring for the switch panel itself. The receiver integrates into your existing electrical circuit.

4.1 Stàladh Glacadair

1. Cumhachd dì-cheangail: Before starting, turn off the power to the circuit at the main circuit breaker to prevent electric shock. Verify power is off using a voltage deuchainniche.
2. Comharraich uèirichean: At your light fixture or appliance, identify the Live (L) and Neutral (N) wires from the power supply and the Live (L) and Neutral (N) wires leading to the light/appliance.
3. Connect Receiver Input: Connect the Live (L) and Neutral (N) wires from your power supply to the "Input" terminals on the receiver.
4. Connect Receiver Output: Connect the Live (L) and Neutral (N) wires leading to your light fixture/appliance to the "Output" terminals on the receiver.
5. Glacadair Tèarainte: Place the receiver securely within the electrical box or canopy, ensuring no wires are pinched.
6. Thoir air ais cumhachd: Once all connections are secure and the receiver is safely housed, restore power at the circuit breaker.

4.2 Switch Panel Placement

The wireless switch panel can be placed anywhere convenient. It can be mounted on any smooth surface using adhesive pads (included) or screws, or simply placed on a table or nightstand.

5. Stiùireadh Obrachaidh

Once the receiver is installed and paired with the switch panel, operating your lights is straightforward.

• Press the desired button on the wireless switch panel to toggle the connected light or appliance ON or OFF.
• If you have a two-button switch, each button (A and B) can control a separate receiver or be paired to the same receiver for two-way control.

6. Modh Paidhir

The switch panel and receiver must be paired for them to communicate. Follow these steps to pair your devices:

Figure 6.1: Step-by-step visual guide for pairing the wireless switch with the receiver: Press the receiver button for 2 seconds until the indicator light blinks, then click the desired switch button, and successful pairing is indicated when the light turns on.

1. Prepare Receiver: Locate the small pairing button on the receiver. Press and hold this button for approximately 2 seconds until the indicator light on the receiver begins to blink. This indicates it is in pairing mode.
2. Cuir an suidse an gnìomh: Within 10 seconds of the receiver's light blinking, press the button on the wireless switch panel that you wish to pair.
3. Dearbhaich a' chàraid: The light connected to the receiver should turn ON, indicating successful pairing. If it does not, repeat the steps.
4. Pairing Multiple Switches (Two-Way Control): To pair additional switch panels to the same receiver (e.g., for a 2-way switch setup), press and hold an already paired switch button for 20 seconds until its blue LED blinks. Then, briefly press the new switch button you wish to pair.
5. Pairing Multiple Receivers: One wireless switch can control an unlimited number of receivers within range. Repeat the pairing process for each receiver you wish to control with the same switch button.
6. Pairing Multiple Switches to One Receiver: A single receiver can be paired with up to 8 different wireless switch panels.

7. Cumail suas

7.1 Glanadh

Clean the wireless switch panel with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. The switch panel is IP66 waterproof, meaning it is protected against powerful water jets, making it suitable for damp environments like bathrooms or outdoor covered areas. However, avoid submerging it.

Figure 7.1: The IP66 waterproof rating ensures safety and durability, even in environments with water exposure, such as a shower.

7.2 Battery Replacement (Wireless Switch Panel)

The wireless switch panel is powered by a CR2032 button cell lithium battery, which has a lifespan of approximately 6-8 years. When the switch responsiveness decreases or the indicator light no longer illuminates, it may be time to replace the battery.

1. Carefully open the back cover of the wireless switch panel.
2. Thoir air falbh an seann bataraidh CR2032.
3. Cuir a-steach bataraidh CR2032 ùr leis an taobh adhartach (+) a’ coimhead suas.
4. Dùin an còmhdach cùil gu tèarainte.
