ZONES The iRIS Wi-Fi Lighting Controller has two separate outputs which correspond to two separate Zones within the app. These Zones can be operated independently and can, as an example, be used to operate swimming pool lights separately to spa lights. Some users may also use Zones to control lights with one Zone and on the other Zone power on swimming pool accessories (see Acessory Devices section and Appendix 2).
Tap “Confirm” to save the new name. ACCESSORY DEVICES The iRIS Wi-Fi Lighting Controller can be used to power accessory devices such as blowers, vacuums, filters, heaters, etc. For example you could connect your lights to Zone 1, and then connect your spa jet blower to Zone 2. See Connecting to Transformers section of this document for a diagram of Zone 1 and 2 locations on the bottom of the iRIS Wi-Fi Lighting Controller.
Limitations of Guest Mode: Access to the iRIS Controller cannot be shared to other Smart Life app users/ accounts. If the Smart Life app is re-installed or Guest Mode is exited, the iRIS Controller will need to be reconfigured and existing settings and schedules will be lost.
