Frequently Asked Questions - Philips 6917648PH User Manual

To add a Philips LivingColors lamp to the remote
control, bring the remote close to the lamp, then
press and hold the "I" button. The lamp will flash
3 times. Hold the "I" button until you hear a beep
from the remote; the lamp will shortly flash in
green. It is now connected to the remote control
and will turn to its last "on" setting.
For a LivingAmbiance lamp, please make sure
that you also connect the white light. You can do
this in the same way as LivingWhites products
described in point 2.
If you would like to disconnect a LivingColors
lamp from the remote, bring the remote close to
the lamp, then press and hold the "0" button. The
lamp will flash 3 times. Hold the "0" button until
you hear a beep from the remote. The lamp will
now slowly fade to off.
2. You can also connect Philips LivingWhites
products (plugs, energy savers and luminaires)
to your remote control. To add a Philips
LivingWhites product, bring the remote close
to it, then press and hold the "I" button. The
lamp will flash 3 times. Hold the "I" button until
you hear a beep from the remote; the lamp will
rapidly flash twice. It is now connected to the
remote control and will turn to its last "on"
setting.
If you would like to disconnect a LivingWhites
product from the remote, bring the remote
close to the product, then press and hold the "0"
button. The lamp will flash 3 times. Hold the "0"
button until you hear a beep from the remote.
The lamp will now slowly fade to off.
3. You can also connect your remote control to
another remote control from the Philips
LivingAmbiance range. Any LivingColors or
LivingWhites remote with a SmartLink logo on
it can be connected to your remote control.
Connecting another remote control will allow
you to control the same lamps with two different
remotes. You could, for example, create 6 different
lighting scenes—3 on one remote and 3 on the
other—with the same lamps. To add an extra
LivingColors or LivingWhites remote control, do
the following:
a. Reset the remote control you would like to
add: open its battery compartment and press
the RESET button for a few seconds (e.g. with a
paper clip). Make sure that the batteries are in.
The remote will play a sound to show it has been
reset.
b. Hold the remote you have reset close to your
current remote. Press the "I" button on both
remotes until the remotes play a sound. The
remotes are now connected – this means that
you can now connect the same lamps to the new
remote control and control all lamps with either
of the remotes.
c. If the remote you are adding is round, you can
now also copy it: you can immediately have
it connected to the same lamps your original
remote is connected to. In order to copy the
remote, repeat the procedure described in point
b.
Once you have connected one or more lamps to your
Philips LivingColors remote control, you can control
all of these lamps together or each one individually.
To control a single lamp, you need to select it (please
note that for LivingColors coloured and white
light, coloured and white light need to be selected
separately). You can do this using one of the light
selection buttons. When you press and hold one of
the light selection buttons, the selected lamp will start
blinking. If this is not the lamp you would like to
adjust, release the button and press it again; another
lamp will start blinking. When a lamp is selected, the
light selection indicator on the remote control (light
bulb) will light up. This means you can now adjust the
selected lamp only.
When no light is selected (light selection indicator is off),
all your adjustments will apply to all lights connected
to the remote control (for example, you can dim all
lights in the room).
If you like a particular combination of light settings of
different luminaires, you can also store it as a scene in
the same way as described in section 2 of this manual.
