Product Installation Guide
Integrated Rocker Switch

1] Description

The Mx-ILS2 Rocker Switch is designed to use wireless communication (902 MHz) and provide remote control
of your lighting. The relay will turn the load ON when the top button is pressed and OFF when the bottom button
is pressed. The Indicator LED will blink Red when a message is received from a learned wireless device such
as an occupancy sensor or remote switch. NOTE: The no-neutral version of the WSS20 has a minimum load
requirement of 25 watts.
Devices can be learned directly into the Mx-ILS2 via the Programming Mode Selection Menu or via airConfig
Tool. The Mx-ILS2 rocker switch has a 100-150 ft. reception range depending upon the environment and
transmission device. Range will be reduced by signals having to transmit through walls. Transmit range for
Mx-ILS2, when utilized as a repeater or for initial setup/ commissioning is approximately 50ft.
