Step 1. Fitting the batteries
First release the screw from the battery cover on the underside of the unit and remove the flap. Fit two
good-quality AAA sized batteries, paying particular attention to ensure correct orientation (a moulded '+'
symbol indicates the positive terminal location) then replace the battery cover and fix using the screw.
If you are not intending to use your EnvirON Switch 125 for an extended period of time, it is advisable to
remove the batteries to prevent leakage, which may damage the product.
Step 2. Pairing with EnvirON receiver
First of all decide which EnvirON receiver you will be using EnvirON Switch 125 with. This could be
EnvirON Hub if you are going to use the switch to control an infra-red device or it could be an iClick for
mains powered devices or EnvirON Connect for door/ window/ curtain openers and locks. Whichever
receiver you will be using, the procedure is the same:
First of all, press Pair on the receiver. Adjacent to the Pair button will be a Pairing LED which will flash
slowly. While it is flashing, press the Pair button [1] on EnvirON Switch 125 - see diagram below. The
pairing process typically takes less than a second to complete, after which a 'P' will appear in the display
[3] to show that the switch is now paired with the chosen receiver.
Step 3. Choose the Mode of the switch
The function of the switch is selected using the Mode button [2] and the display [3]. The mode that you
choose differs depending on whether you are using the switch to control an infra-red device or a wireless
device:
Wireless devices
The Mode of the switch tells the receiver with which it is paired what to do when it receives some
information from the switch. You can decide whether the device is on only for the time you press the
switch (Momentary or Direct), whether it changes from off to on and vice versa each time the switch is
pressed (Latched) or whether it turns on for a certain period of time (Timed). Which of these you choose
depends to a large extent on the type of device you are controlling. For example if it's a lamp, you will
probably want it to be in Latched mode whereas if it's a door opener you may need it to be Timed.
Use Table 1 to choose the correct mode for the device you are going to control with the switch and then
press the Mode button [2] repeatedly until you see that setting appear on the display [3]. After a few
seconds of making no further changes, the display goes blank to save power and the new setting is
retained in the switch's memory even if the batteries are removed or run flat.
For example, let's suppose that we would like to have the switch control a lamp plugged into channel 1 of
iClick. Having already paired the switch using PAIR 1 on iClick, we must now set the Mode of the switch to
'2' which is latched. Each time we press the switch the lamp will change from on to off and vice versa.
Note that Modes 23 and 24 give 'On Only' and 'Off Only' operation and
must be used as a pair to achieve full control of a device. In some
cases it can be cognitively more straightforward to have a separate
switch for on and off and these two modes provide such a facility. You
could, for example, attach a photo of a lamp turned on and another of
it turned off to the switches. If you would like to make use of this
feature, pair two switches with the EnvirON receiver and set one to
Mode 23 (On Only) and the other to Mode 24 (Off Only).
