Page 7: Installation
Installation Installation Live in Switched live (live out) Screw 2-Way Mounting Switching hole Connection NOTE: it is important to install this product in accordance with the following instructions. Failure to do so may void your warranty. LightwaveRF is fully legal to install in your own home. However, if in doubt, always consult a qualified electrician. - Page 8 Installation IMPORTANT: Turn o the mains electrical supply. Ensure that the wall (back) box has a minimum depth of 35mm. Remove and disconnect the existing light switch (if applicable). It may be useful at this point to mark out or take a photograph of the connections to the existing switch so that the correct wires can easily be transferred to the new Dimmer.
- Page 9 Installation Connect the wiring as per the wiring diagram on the following page. Ensure that the terminals are properly tightened and that no bare wire is visible. Be aware that existing wiring circuits are not always correctly coloured, and that there may be other wired connections present in the back box;...

Important things to Consider • In a multigang Dimmer, to be able to operate any gang by remote control mains electricity must always be connected to the rightmost (when viewed from...
- Page 12 Compatibility & Lamps Compatibility Ensuring the compatibility of your lamps (bulbs) with LightwaveRF Dimmers will ensure that you get the best experience from your lighting setup. LightwaveRF Dimmers are compatible with • Standard mains voltage incandescent & low energy incandescent lighting (min 20W, max 250W) •...
- Page 13 Compatibility & Lamps Adjusting the dimming range On initial setup, LightwaveRF Dimmers are pre-programmed to allow a moderate range of dimming for any connected lamps. If desired, this range can be extended by following the instructions below. The reason for allowing modifications to the dimming range is to maximise compatibility with dimmable LED lamps (bulbs).
- Page 14 Compatibility & Lamps Tap the (top) ‘on’ button twice to enter Dimming Range Setup. The blue LED will flash to indicate that the setup menu has been accessed. The Dimmer will automati- cally turn on at a high level of brightness. This indicates that the smallest (most stable) dimming range is currently selected.
- Page 15 Compatibility & Lamps Important things to Consider • Wattage ratings for the Dimmers are per gang. This means that a total load of 250W (incandescent) can be put on each circuit connected to each gang. • LightwaveRF Dimmers utilise a tiny amount of power to drive the electron- ics that operate the RF radio and dimming components.
- Page 16 2-Way Switching Connecting to a 2-Way Dimmer • Any LightwaveRF Dimmer Switch (and any gang in a multigang Dimmer) can be used in conjunction with a LightwaveRF 2-Way Dimmer to perform 2-Way Switching. For full instructions on how to install a 2-Way Dimmer, please consult the instruction booklet for the 2-Way Dimmer.

- Page 18 Setup Setup Linking the Dimmer to LightwaveRF Controllers LightwaveRF Dimmers each have 6 unique memories which means they can link with up to 6 LightwaveRF Controllers in total. NOTE: If you are using a smartphone/tablet to control the Dimmer via the Lightwave Link, this will always count as ONE controller and take up one memory slot even if you are using multiple smartphones/tablets.
- Page 19 Setup Setup NOTE: Linking Mode lasts for 12 seconds; if no signal is received from a remote handset during this time then the Dimmer will automatically exit learning mode without linking the device. If, when expecting a blue LED flash to confirm pairing, a slow amber LED flash is received instead, the Dimmer switch memory is FULL and no further remotes may be linked with it unless one of the existing remotes is first unpaired (see below).
- Page 20 Setup Clearing Memory (will remove all linked remotes): 1. Press and hold down both the ‘on’ and ‘o ’ buttons until the blue and amber LEDs flash alternately then release. The Dimmer Switch is now in linking mode. 2. On the Dimmer Switch, press and hold down the ‘o ’...
- Page 21 Setup Locking the Dimmer Switch • The Dimmer can be ‘locked’ so that the manual buttons will not operate it. This can be achieved using a Socket Locker or from the LightwaveRF app. If it is locked on, then the Dimmer will not turn o manually. If it is locked o , it will be possible to turn the Dimmer on, but it will automatically turn o again after five minutes.
- Page 22 Creative Ideas for Lightwave Dimmers 1. (Easy): Family Safety Products Required: Dimmer Switch, PIR Motion Sensor Here we have a LightwaveRF Dimmer Switch paired to a PIR Motion Sensor. When somebody is detected by the sensor, it triggers the Dimmer automati- cally and turns the light on.
- Page 23 Creative Ideas for Lightwave Dimmers 2. (Intermediate): Scene Lighting Required: Dimmer(s), Mood Controller, Plug-ins Dimmer Switches & Dimmable Plug-ins enable you to control all of your lounge ceiling lights and socket powered lamps individually or together as a group. The Mood Controller allows you to set and recall your own favourite lighting scenes at the touch of a button.

(Advanced): Simulated Occupancy Required: Dimmer(s), Power Sockets or Plugins, Link This setup gives you control over your devices from anywhere in the world. Here we have ceiling lights controlled by Dimmers and lamps plugged into Lightwave Power Sockets or Plug-in Sockets.

Page 25: Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Problem: The Dimmer will not operate the light and the LEDs on the Dimmer do not light up. Solution: Firstly, check that there is power to the Dimmer. Make sure that the connected lamps (bulbs) are functioning correctly; the Dimmer Switch will not run unless it has a functioning lamp/s to complete the circuit. - Page 26 Troubleshooting Problem: The LED/CFL lamps that I am using flash / do not dim properly. Solution: Ensure that the lamps being used are dimmable; non dimmable lamps are not compatible with LightwaveRF Dimmers. If the problem persists, the LED/CFL lamps may not be compatible with the Dimmers; please contact technical help (via www.lightwaverf.com) for further advice.
- Page 27 FAQs Does the Dimmer have a ‘standby’ power consumption The Dimmer has a standby power consumption of approx. 0.5W. This is because the in-built radio receiver requires power in order to receive commands. This rate is low & well within government energy guidelines. How do I know that the Dimmer Switch will fit? The Dimmer is the same size as a standard lightswitch - it will fit all back boxes (standard lightswitch housing) over 35mm deep.
- Page 28 FAQs Can I use non dimmable lamps (bulbs) if I don’t dim them? No. The lamps must be dimmable even if they are not dimmed; the technology in the lamp must be compatible with that of the Dimmer. What if I need a switch to operate on/o only? A LightwaveRF Relay in conjunction with a Wire-free Switch can be used for on/o switching in place of the Dimmer (see www.lightwaverf.com).
