Install and Configure a Wireless Outlet Switch
To enable full use of the Control4 system's features, configure your Wireless
Outlet Switch to read the power state of the devices that you plug into it. For
example, if your switch can read the power state of the DVD player, your
DVD player can then participate in concert with the lights and the other
devices in your home theater in a lighting scene.
1
Choose a location where the ZigBee wireless communication will be
most efficient: (1) Place the Outlet Switch near enough to the next
ZigBee device to facilitate communication (2); Keep the Outlet Switch
from being continually too close to devices that can cause interference,
such as microwave ovens or cordless telephones with a 2.4 GHz
frequency.
2
Remove the screw that holds the faceplate onto
the AC outlet to which you will plug the Wireless
Outlet Switch.
3
Plug the Wireless Outlet Switch into the
receptacle of the outlet, keeping the faceplate
between the Wireless Outlet Switch and the
wall.
4
Through the Wireless Outlet Switch's security screw tab, insert the
screw that you removed in Step 2 and then screw it back in place.
5
Within Composer software, add the outlet to the project and make
necessary connections. See "Configure an Outlet Switch or Dimmer" in
Composer online help.
To identify the Wireless Outlet Switch as part of the Composer software
configuration, press the button on the top panel of the Wireless Outlet
Switch.
6
Plug in the device you would like to control, such as a DVD player, into
one of the Wireless Outlet Switch's receptacles (on the bottom panel).
7
Push and hold the button on the top panel of the Wireless Outlet Switch
until the two LED lights flash orange, On and Off, from one to the next.
8
When the LED lights up on the side that corresponds to the outlet in
which your device is plugged, release the button. For example, if the
device you have plugged in is on the right side of the Wireless Outlet
Switch, release the button when the LED lights on the right side.
The LED on that side of the switch alone flashes orange, indicating that
it is in the first phase of learning the state (Off) of the device. When it
has completed this learning phase, the LED then shines solid orange.
9
When the LED shines solid orange, turn On the device that you have
plugged into the Wireless Outlet Switch. The LED light again flashes
orange while the Wireless Outlet Switch completes the first phase of
