Updated July 24, 2024 LightSwitch Jeweller is a smart touch light switch for indoor installation. It can replace any mechanical or touch switch, with the product line offering one-gang and two-gang regular, two-way, and crossover versions. Devices can be combined as a set with other Ajax smart switches and/or outlets* and installed horizontally or vertically into one Frame side by side.

LightSwitch is a prefabricated smart light switch. All switch components are purchased separately. Elements are connected mechanically without the need for tools. There are two LightSwitch formats in the Ajax product line: single and combined. Combined switches can be horizontal and vertical.

Combined switch A combined switch consists of several LightCore relays and touch-sensitive panels installed into one Frame with the appropriate number of seats. Relay Plastic frames Touch-sensitive panels Side touch-sensitive panels are installed on the right and left or on the top and bottom sides of the frame, while central touch-sensitive panels are installed in the center.
In the switch settings in Ajax apps, the color of LightSwitch can be changed. The color in the app does not have to match the color of the installed panel. A PRO or a user with admin rights can change the panel color anytime. For example, if the installer has replaced the touch-sensitive panel or a user wishes to set different colors for the switches in the app to distinguish them.

Temperature protection triggers if the temperature of the switch exceeds +60 °C. If this protection triggers, LightSwitch turns off the power and sends a notification to Ajax apps. The power supply is restored automatically when the temperature of the switch returns to normal.

Detection of lighting devices with insufficient power LightSwitch continuously checks its power supply parameters. If LightSwitch controls the power of a lighting device with insufficient power (up to 7 W), the system will notify users. In this case, it is necessary to replace the lighting device with a similar one with higher capacity or to connect a bundled capacitor in parallel with the lighting device.

When an alarm is received, the operator at the security company’s CMS knows what happened and precisely where to dispatch a rapid response team. The addressability of Ajax devices allows sending events to PRO Desktop or the CMS, including the device type, its name, security group, and virtual room. Note that the list of transmitted parameters may vary depending on the CMS type and the selected communication protocol for it.
on the Devices tab indicates the signal strength: three bars — excellent signal strength; two bars — good signal strength; one bar — low signal strength, stable operation is not guaranteed; crossed out icon — no signal. Check the Jeweller and Wings signal strength before the final installation. With a signal strength of one or zero bars, we do not guarantee stable operation of the device.

Only a qualified electrician or installer should install LightSwitch. Do not switch on the power at the switches before installing the touch-sensitive panels. Also, do not try to register the device before installing the touch-sensitive panel, as it contains antennas needed to communicate with the hub.

LightSwitch (Crossover) Jeweller can control 7 to 600 W lighting devices. The kit includes a capacitor connected in parallel with the lighting device for low- power lamps. Learn more about bundled capacitor When LightSwitch (Crossover) Jeweller is connected to the same or other LightSwitch devices in one electric circuit, the minimum required power of a lighting device increases to 1 W per each additional LightSwitch.
