1.
Turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse and test that
power is off before wiring the device.
NOTE: Use a non-metal electrical enclosure for best wireless
communication performance.
2.
Identify the wiring connection at the installation site to coor
-
dinate with the following wiring diagram.
NOTE: For display purposes, white wire is shown as yellow.
3.
Determine which of the two installation methods is most
appropriate:
A.
Installed inside the electrical box.
NOTE: For best performance, remove the antenna from
its slot and elongate it outside and away from the box.
B. Installed using the threaded connector:
i. Insert the threaded connector through a ½” diameter
knockout.
ii.
Thread the 3 module wires inside the electrical box
and through the lock nut.
4. Connect the wires using wire nuts and cap any bare wires.
NOTE: After the module is linked and configured, you can
secure it in the installed location, see step 8.
5.
Fold the wires neatly and either place the module in the box
or secure the threaded connector with the lock nut.
6. Position the module so that the setup interface and antenna
face forward (out).
TIP: If the RF reception is poor, use the antenna sleeve pro
-
vided to extend the antenna.
7. Restore power to the circuit.
The right LED will display solid red when the relay is open or
green when the relay is closed (switch on).
8.
Use the setup interface to
link devices and configure
settings (refer to the “Linking”
& “Configuring” sections).
Warning: Remove the
module from the electrical
box to use the setup
interface.
Linking
Two or more compatible devices can be linked and configured
to provide the desired control. There are two basic types of
devices in the system; transmitters and transceivers.
▪
Transmit-only:
Transmitters are simple energy-harvesting
devices that send RF messages to communicate a condition,
level, or state. Transmitters can only be linked to transceivers.
Examples > Self-powered Light Switches, Occupancy Sensors
▪
Transmit & Receive:
Transceivers are controlling devices
that send as well as receive RF messages. They also process
relevant control logic, and actuate the appropriate outputs
(switching a light on or off for example). Transceivers can be
linked with transmitters as well as other transceivers.
Examples > Relays, Gateways
The In-Line Switch Module is a Transceiver
(transmits & receives)
To link the In-Line Switch to a transmitter, the In-Line Switch
must first be powered, within wireless range of the transmitter it
is to be linked to, and set to accept links.
Next, the desired transmitter is triggered to send a special link
message. The awaiting transceiver receives and stores the link
permanently so the devices can interact to provide a variety of
intelligent control options.
About the Setup Interface
The setup interface has two buttons, Menu and Set, that each
have a corresponding 3-color LED (green, amber, red). This sim
-
ple interface is used to link and configure devices as a system.
The buttons and LEDs are used to navigate and select linking
and setup options through a 3-tier menu system consisting of
different Modes > Menus > Options.
To use the interface, hold the module so both thumbs can click
the buttons without obscuring the LEDs. The illustration and
legend below describe how the buttons are used and the mean
-
ing of the LED responses.
To exit from anywhere in a menu, hold both buttons at the same
time for 2 seconds.
