TRANSFORMER QUICK START GUIDE: iOS / Android
COMPLETE CONTROL!
Congratulations! You have purchased a first in
landscape lighting - the
Justin JSST
Bluetooth LE
controlled multi-circuit solid state transformer
. Your
new transformer comes from the factory programmed
for sunset to sunrise operation based on Pacific
Standard Time. Wherever you are, follow these
simple step-by-step instructions below to add any
custom program for automatic control of your new
lighting system.
DEVICE REQUIREMENTS
JSST
requires an Apple or Android device that
supports Bluetooth Low Energy (also called Bluetooth
LE, BLE or Bluetooth 4.0). running iOS 7 or Android
4.4 or newer.
Supported devices:
Apple:
iPad (Air, Mini, 3rd & 4th gen), iPhone (6,
6+, 5s, 5c, 5 & 4s), iPod touch (5th gen).
Android:
You can find a list of supported Android
devices here:
http://www.bluetooth.com/Pages/Bluetooth-
Smart-Devices-List.aspx
INSTALLING THE JSST IOS /
ANDROID APP
Search the App Store (iOS) or Play Store (Android)
for “
Justin JSST
”. Install on mobile device (free).
INITIAL CONNECTION AND SETUP
Internal Overide Switch
(see below) Must be
set to “App”.
1. Make sure your
JSST
transformers and fixtures are
properly mounted and fully wired (see MOUNTING
INSTRUCTIONS, behind transformer front panel).
Apply 120V input power to only one transformer in
the installation (if multiple). Your lights may flash as
the transformer initializes. Open the
JSST
App
on
your device. When loading the App for the first time,
make sure to answer ALLOW (prompt) to the question
USE YOUR LOCATION? This will send and store the
correct time to your transformer according to your
device and location.
2. Stand close to the transformer and open your App.
Via Bluetooth 4.0 technology, you should see one
or more locations appear. Each signal strength bar
represents one single or dual circuit transformer. Tap
on the top location to connect. In rare cases, multiple
taps may be required.
3. For iOS, if provided, tap “A” or “B” at the top
of the screen. The circuit being set will highlight. For
Android, tap the menu icon at upper right and select
“A” or “B”. In order to easily identify fixture locations
and transformers on a job, the circuit name may be
changed in settings, along with the name of each
transformer.
4. The connected transformer name (“
JSST
” from
factory) will be displayed at the top of your screen.
For
iOS
devices, tap on the
Control
tab at the bottom
and tap
ON
. For Android devices, tap the
LIVE
CONTROL
tab at the top of your screen, then tap
the right side of the Brightness slider. Your fixtures will
light.
During initial connection to your transformer, if you
answered “dual circuit” in the opening screen of the
app, your fixtures will light according to the transformer
circuit selected. When facing your transformer, A
represents the left side terminal output, B the right side.
On one circuit transformers, select ‘Single Circuit’ in
the opening screen of the app. Both pairs of output
terminals are then controlled by the app. If ‘Single’
or ‘Dual’ was initially selected in error, the ‘Erase
Existing Programming’ button at the bottom of the
settings screen can be used to reset your transformer
to factory defaults. Warning: Any saved programing
will be erased!
5. Tap on the
Settings
tab. Scroll down to
Rename
selected side
or
Rename transformer
and tap on
it. If desired, enter a new name for the location of
the fixtures connected to this transformer circuit, e.g.
“Front Yard”. Save the new name for iOS by tapping
Done
. For Android, tap
OK
.
7. Under
OTHER SETTINGS
, choose your voltage
Output Level
as required, and
Lamp Type
. Separate
lamp types are offered due to varying dimming
performance when using LED’s. When Halogen is
selected for an LED string, unexpected dimming results
may occur.
8. Turn the
Use DST
switch off or uncheck the box if
you live in an area that does not observe Daylight
Savings Time, such as Arizona or Hawaii.
Note: If a second circuit is provided in this transformer,
select Side B within the app and repeat the above
process. With more than one transformer on the
job, the initial set-up process can be simplified by
connecting 120V input to one transformer at a time.
LIVE CONTROL
You can control and check the function and brightness
of your lights in real-time from the
Live Control
tab.
Brightness Lock
Normally when you disconnect or switch from a
location, the lighting schedule for the disconnected
location will run immediately. For example, if it is
nighttime and you connect and turn the lights off and
then disconnect, the lights should immediately turn on
because they are programmed to be on at night. If
you would rather the lights stay where you set them
after you disconnect, use the
Brightness Lock
feature.
You can keep the lights at the custom brightness you
set for day or night for a period of time or until the
next event (scheduled program and/or brightness
change).
SETTINGS
You can change the on/off/dim times of your lights
from the
Settings
tab. The
BRIGHTNESS
control for
Lights On
refers to the initial brightness of your lights
when they first turn on.
Note
: Diming levels may vary if different lamp types
are combined in the same circuit.
Darkness Periods
When
These Settings Apply
is set to
Nightly
time
, your lights will turn on/off/dim at the same
times every night of the week. You can also select
different darkness periods (a period of darkness
beginning at noon of one day and ending at noon
of the following day). For example, when
Tue/Wed
is
selected for
These Settings Apply
, on/off/dim times
you configure only apply to the Tue/Wed darkness
period and other periods are unaffected.
Exactly at
Sunrise
and
Exactly at Sunset
times automatically
adjust according to the timezone of the last device
connected. Be careful to correctly move the “AM” and
“PM” scroll for each desired on/off/dim time.
Presets
After configuring your schedule settings the way you
want, you can save them for later use by tapping
the
Save Settings to Preset
button or
Presets
button.
This will save your schedule settings (only on/off/
dim times/brightness and nothing else) to your iOS
or Android device so you can load a copy of those
settings to other locations later with the Load Preset
button. When multiple circuits are set for identical
ON/OFF times, it is normal for the ON/OFF function
to vary slightly between circuits in a transformer, or
among transformers on a job.
If your transformer becomes disconnected from 120V
input power for any reason, a backup battery within
the transformer control module will maintain your time
and programmed settings. The battery will not need
service during the life of the unit.
OVERVIEW
Use overview to test your settings as needed. It
is a sped up way to see how your lights will act
during each night period. The
BRIGHTNESS
bar is
only an indicator. When satisfied with your entries, be
sure to tap save to run your settings nightly.
INTERNAL OVERRIDE SWITCH
You will find a three position rocker switch inside the
transformer cover next to the output terminals. It can be
set according to the legend below. Your transformer
comes from the factory in the APP position. On dual
circuit transformers, the switch controls both circuits
at once.
