Groups

Devices in a group share all the same settings (e.g., on-level, ramp rate). This keeps all group members
synchronized. Every device in a group is both a controller of, and responder to, all the other devices. The most
common example of a group is a 3-way lighting circuit (2 switches). For simplicity, we will assume that the desired
group level is on.


The following steps will create a virtual 3-way circuit including device “A” and device “B”:
1) Turn A and B on
2) Press and hold A Set button until it beeps

A status LED will start blinking green

3) Press and hold B Set button until it double-beeps

A will double-beep and its LED will stop blinking

4) Press and hold B Set button until it beeps

B LED will start blinking green

5) Press and hold A Set button until it double-beeps

B will double-beep and its LED will stop blinking

6) Test by turning load on and off from A and then B

The load(s) and both A and B LEDs will remain in synch

Scenes

Devices in a scene can each have different settings. This provides for advanced scene creation. Software is
recommended for scene management.

Example of a scene with 1 controller and Micro module as a member:

1) Press and hold controller button until it beeps

Controller LED will start blinking green

2) Tap controller Set button

Controller LED will start double-blinking green

3) Adjust load to desired scene state (on or off)
4) Press and hold Micro module Set button until it double-beeps
5) For each additional scene member:

a. Adjust member to desired scene state
b. Press and hold Set button until it double-beeps

6) Tap controller Set button

Controller will beep and LED will stop blinking

7) Test by tapping controller button on and off

Micro module and other scene responders will all respond appropriately

Make Micro Module a Controller of Multiple Responders

1) Press and hold Micro module Set button until it beeps

LED will start blinking green

2) Tap Micro module Set button

LED will start double-blinking green

3) For each responder you are adding:

a. Adjust responder to desired scene state
b. Press and hold Set button until it double-beeps

4) Tap Micro module Set button

Micro module will beep and LED will stop blinking

5) Test by tapping switch wired into Micro module on and off

All the responders will turn on and off
