Remote Control Range
When using your remote control, you must be within range of your lighting network for the remote control to be
able to control your lighting. However, this does not mean that it has to be within range of all network light bulbs.
Since the light bulbs are interconnected across the network, they can pass commands to each other as long as
they are within network range of each other. This means that a nearby light bulb can receive your remote control
command and pass that command across the network of connected light bulbs, ultimately to a light bulb you
want to control in a distant room. Because of this effect, larger homes would make better use of having more
network light bulbs spread across the home, maintaining a distance that allows each light bulb to communicate
with one another.
Note: Operating the remote control too close to a network light bulb could interfere with the remote control’s signal. When
operating the remote control, you should hold it at least 1 foot (.3 meters) away from any of your network light bulbs.
Remote Control Setup
Preparing Your Remote for Use
Before you can use the remote control with your network lighting, you must first prepare it. Remove the battery
compartment cover from the back of the remote control, and insert two AA alkaline batteries (included). The first
time you insert batteries, the primary indicator light flashes while the remote control determines the best signal
for your lighting system. When this process is complete, the indicator light will remain on for approximately five
seconds. When the indicator light turns off, your remote control is ready.
