INSTALLATION

After programming, you are now ready to install the Wall Mount Transmitter.
You may use double sided foam tape to stick the transmitter on the wall, or you may use screws to mount the transmitter.

Using double sided foam tape:

Place the 2 double sided foam tapes on the back of the back plate. Clean the surface of the wall where you plan to install the back plate. Peel off the foam tape cover and stick it to the wall surface.

Using screws:
If you are using screws, tighten the back plate of the wall mount transmitter by the 2 screws provided. If you are installing the back plate to an existing wall switch with wall box, no need to use the anchors. Otherwise, drill 2 small pilot holes based on the 2 mounting screw positions and insert the anchors before tightening the back plate with screws. After securing the back plate, either by double sided foam tape or screws, tighten the 2 screws on the front to secure the front plate.

ON / OFF OPERATION

Pushing the pad from one position to the other will toggle the status of a load, i.e. when the light is off, pushing the pad will turn on the light, and vice versa.

BRIGHTNESS CONTROL OPERATION

Besides turning on and off a load, you may also control the brightness of a light if the receiver module and the light bulb is dimmable, i.e. either incandescent light or dimmable compact fluorescent light.
To change the brightness, first turn on the light by pushing the pad.
Then, press and hold the pad after the light is on will change the brightness of the light. When the desired brightness is reached, release the pad.
Press and hold the pad again to change the brightness in the opposite way. When the desired brightness is reached, release the pad.
